On the surface, the University of Melbourne is a historical spectacle – with its grand arches, stone facades, echoing hallways, and the chimes of the old clocktower.

But this university is also home to many secrets, from human remains unearthed on university grounds, to its role in nuclear testing on Indigenous lands.

In an eight-part series, students from the Centre for Advancing Journalism explore the university’s hidden past, revealing stories that reach beyond iconic buildings and the names they bear.

We dive into the colonial legacies tied to these structures, the injustice they represent, and the multicultural narratives that push back against this history.

This series is about truth-telling—illuminating the foundations on which this our university is built.

Join us as we unearth the stories that have been buried for far too long.
