Aside from Murdoch, there is the Rockingham Regional Campus, opened in 1996 alongside Rockingham's TAFE campus, which features dedicated facilities for Engineering, an Arts and Commerce building as well as a community library; and the Peel Campus in Mandurah, which opened in 2004 for nursing and life science students.
WalterMurdoch arrived in 1913 as foundation professor of English in a university located in a small town which thought of itself as the most isolated capital city in the world.
Murdoch, Curtin, and Edith Cowan, the labourers in the vineyard who had borne the burden and the heat of the day, grumbled at this anomaly, and eventually the government was shamed into admitting that perhaps they too should be endowed; but shortly afterwards Richard Court won the election, and all commitments were off.
