History of Griffith University:

 

In December 1970 the Queensland Education Minister, Sir Alan Fletcher, approached the distinguished newspaper editor Sir Theodor Bray with the task of creating a new university. The brief was deceptively simple - to offer an alternative university experience to that already available in Queensland and other parts of Australia.


The State Government of the time had just one other requirement, that the new university be named after Sir Samuel Walker Griffith, a former Queensland Premier, Chief Justice of Queensland and the Chief Justice of Australia. A parcel of land at Nathan (10 kilometers south of central Brisbane) was formally named Griffith University in the Queensland Parliament on 21 September 1971.
