Tutor: Graham Blackman
Australian History and its "Exceptionalism" has, from term one to two, spanned prehistory to 1900. Term 3 now sees our history from the dawn of the new 20th century to modern day, which will cover many of the lived experiences of participants. The beginning of the 20th century was labelled "The Age of Optimism," and there was much of it; however, many people and events will show yet again what "exceptional" history we have. Places are limited.

Tuesday 9.30am - 11.00am. Classes started 21 April, finish 23 June.

About the Tutor:
Brisbane-born and raised, served in Australian submarines for fifteen years, then became a self-employed Business Analyst until retirement. I was a Rotarian for 25 years and in 2005 became a volunteer Angel Flight Pilot. During this time, Australian history and its "exceptionalism" was brought to my attention in the many places I visited. From what became a passion, it was translated into a course for U3A Toowoomba, which has now been running for 7 years and is commencing in Brisbane in 2026.Enrolments have closed for Term 2.
