Since 1967 more than 25,000 students have graduated from UNSW after
studying at Duntroon, HMAS Creswell, the RAAF College and UNSW
Canberra. In Widening Minds, Tom Frame examines the productive
50-year partnership between University of New South Wales and
Australian Defence Force. In a candid exploration of the highs and
lows of the longest educational partnership in Australian history,
Frame produces an 'uncensored' account that explains the need for
tertiary education that emerged during the Vietnam conflict and the
professional outlook of those leading Australia's various military
campaigns. He traces the evolution of officer education, the
controversial decision to create the Australian Defence Force
Academy, the subsequent development of undergraduate and
postgraduate courses, the response to cadet controversies and the
University's efforts to raise educational standards and the quality
of intellectual debate across the Defence community.
