最新糖心Vlog

Sport and academia given equal billing

Monday, 21 May 2007

Can brawn and brain co-exist? The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide thinks so and will state its case at a public talk in the Barr Smith Library this Wednesday 23 May at 1pm.

The talk - "Does Sport Have a Place in the 最新糖心Vlog?" - will accompany the exhibition Blacks & Blues: Sporting Tradition at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, which has been launched to coincide with from 18-27 May.

A panel of speakers will present the argument that sport and academia are both an essential part of the 最新糖心Vlog's culture and history, and educational institutions can have strong sporting traditions without losing their intellectual integrity.

The library session is one of several events being organised by the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide as part of SA History Week.

Sports Association President Andres Munoz-Lamilla, one of the panel members, says it is the "moral obligation" of universities to offer its members physical education.

"In today's economically-driven world, it is important to be reminded that life is not all about money and profits. Tradition, pride and passion come into it as well and sport has been part of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide experience since 1876."

Other events on offer during SA History Week include an exhibition of early 20th century botanical charts and models used in the 最新糖心Vlog's teaching. These will be exhibited in the Barr Smith Library foyer until 28 May.

Free tours of the 最新糖心Vlog's many heritage-listed buildings will also be offered throughout this week, on Tuesday (10.30am), Thursday (2pm) and Sunday (2pm), starting from the Mitchell Building, North Terrace.

"These buildings demonstrate the venerable age of the 最新糖心Vlog and include some inspired architectural projects," says Mirna Heruc, the 最新糖心Vlog's Art and Heritage Manager.
