Student: Dhananjay Pradhan pictured with Robert O'Connor QC Awarded for: The best academic performance by a student in the unit (BUS313) Taxation. Donor: Robert O'Connor |
"Having won prizes while obtaining my Law degree at ANU in the 1970s, I know how much prizes are appreciated by winners. I resolved that, when in professional practice, I would be a donor of prizes. As I was a Tax specialist at the Bar, I wished to encourage the study of taxation, and my prizes were for the top students in that subject.
If the prizes are an incentive to students to perform at their best, then they serve a very important function. Whoever attains the top mark in the subject deserves to be acknowledged and recognised for the outstanding achievement.
Murdoch has an outstanding reputation for producing graduates who take their place in the competitive commercial world. I am delighted to be associated with Murdoch. "
