Let your voice be heard this Wear It Purple Day
|
|
This Friday 29 August is Wear It Purple Day – a day to stand together with our rainbow young people and show them that they are accepted, celebrated and respected. This year’s theme “Bold Voices, Bright Futures” highlights the power of your voice in shaping the future, so if you’re ever in doubt, or simply need someone to talk to or get advice from, reach out to the UniSA Ally Network and make sure your voice is heard.
Our
Allies are friendly, supportive students and staff who can answer questions about gender and sexual diversity, offer peer support and help connect you with useful resources and services. You can connect with them via email in the first instance, and depending on their availability, you might be able to organise to meet with them as well. Find a full list of UniSA Allies on the website and get in touch.

Celebrate your UniSA journey at Campus Rewind
|
|
As we prepare to transition to the new Adelaide University, we invite you to celebrate your time at UniSA at Campus Rewind. This is your last chance to get your photos taken for the Class of 2025 Digital Yearbook and grab a limited-edition Final Class of UniSA t-shirt.
But that’s not all! You can also craft friendship bracelets, play carnival games, win prizes, and treat yourself to popcorn, fairy floss and juice. Everything is free, and there’s something for everyone. No registrations required (except for the yearbook photo session) – just bring yourself, your friends, and make your final UniSA memories with us.
City East: Tuesday 2 September, 11:30am – 2:30pm, The Plaza
Mawson Lakes: Wednesday 3 September, 11:30am – 2:30pm, F Building Undercroft

MOD. Ethos Forum: De-Extinction – What could go wrong?
|
|
Is bringing back extinct species a good idea? While countless blockbuster movies tell us it’s probably not, our free Ethos Forum invites you to find out more as we tackle the scientific and societal impacts of de-extinction.
When is a dire wolf not a dire wolf? How will conservation efforts for currently endangered species be affected? Will only cute or exciting species be revived – and who decides? Join us as we discuss the ethics of de-extinction with help from Professor Chris Daniels, Associate Professor Jeremy Austin and Associate Professor Alexandra Whittaker, hosted by comedian and science advocate Jason Chong. There will be free drinks and snacks, and this event will be Auslan interpreted. |

Common Core at Adelaide University
|
|
At Adelaide University, we’re shaping Australia’s most contemporary, accessible and future-focused curriculum – placing you at the centre. You’ll access both meaningful face-to-face and work-integrated learning along with digitally rich experiences, supported by the latest technologies.
This
includes Adelaide University’s Common Core subjects – a suite of interdisciplinary courses designed to prepare Adelaide University graduates for the future. These courses foster the skills our industry partners tell us they want in every employee, no matter their profession. Watch this video to learn about Common Core and find out more on the website. |

Adelaide University network go-live
|
|
As we move towards Day One at Adelaide University (AU), we’re working behind the scenes to integrate the networks from both foundation universities so students can study seamlessly across all AU campuses.
From 7 September, you’ll be able to connect to the unisa Wi-Fi network when at any University of Adelaide (UoA) campus. You’ll also start to see a new AU Wi-Fi network appearing across both UniSA and UoA campuses.
No action is required for now – you can continue using the unisa network as usual. For students continuing into 2026, we’ll share more information closer to the time about when and how to switch to the AU network.
If
you have any questions or need support, please contact the IT Service Desk.

Transition study plan update
|
|
The distribution of study plans to students transitioning to Adelaide University has started and will continue until later in the year. Due to the complex nature of the activity, some students will receive their study plans before others, including those within the same program. Please be assured that you will receive your transition study plan prior to enrolments opening. You will receive an email directly when your study plan is finalised.
More information about the transition to Adelaide University was sent to you on Thursday 14 August from the co-Vice Chancellors. If you haven’t already, we recommend reading that email and checking the Student
Path to AU on the Adelaide University website.
