OZinOH: This is not the SRC at the University of Newcastle. My guess is that it's the conference/council of the National Union of Australian University Students (NUAUS) in the early 1960s. It's about three times the size of the SRC, and I recognise several people who were students at other universities and went to NUAUS. However, it's from before I was a delegate, so I'm not in the picture. OZinOH: I've identified three people on the photo, and I'm revising my estimate of when this was taken to around 1965. John Bannon: Then a law student at the University of Adelaide, later Premier of South Australia. Tom Roper: History student at the University of Sydney in 1963-1966, later Minister for Education in Victoria. Ian Lowe: Then a physics student at the University of NSW; president of the Students Union Council there in 1965-1966, and currently an emeritus professor at Griffith University. rosewater_rose: I can identify some more. How do I go about doing it? UON Library,University of Newcastle, Australia: Thanks, Anne. You can type their names and location in the photo into a comment box as you did your question. We very much appreciate information such as you can provide.
