EDITOR’S NOTE

I

n midAugust
1991,
Australian
Campus
Review
Weekly

was launched as
Australia’s first specialist
weekly newspaper for the
higher-education sector.
Founding editor Jane
Richardson summarised its
three key aims: providing
an independent voice in
higher-education reporting;
providing a forum for wide
ranging debate on issues
affecting those working in
the sector; and reflecting
the richness of campus life.
A quarter-century
later, despite the
myriad pressures and
opportunities that have
influenced the evolution
of both the sector and this
publication, Richardson’s
fundamental goals remain
the guiding tenets of
Campus Review.
Now a monthly print and
digital publication that also
provides daily news, analysis
and commentary online,
Campus Review continues
to highlight and give voice
to experts on the important
issues related to the
higher-education
landscape.
The reputation of this
publication has been
hard earned, owed to the
tireless work of the many
staff who have ensured
Campus Review remains
an important forum for the
sector after 25 years.
It also owes a great
debt to the countless
education sector leaders,
academics, experts and
other stakeholders whose
editorial contributions
continue to give life to the
enormous conversation that
Richardson and her team
began in 1991. n
