    More than $2000 raised for World’s Greatest Shave at Notre Dame

    The sounds of buzzing electric clippers echoed around The University of Notre Dame Australia’s Prindiville Hall as brave staff and students from the Fremantle Campus shaved, coloured and waxed their hair for the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave. Fourth year Health and Physical Education student Michael Brinsden joined five other team members on Wednesday, 18 April, to raise awareness about blood cancer and much needed funds for cancer research. Mr Brinsden’s team raised more than 2000fortheLeukaemiaFoundation.HealthandPhysicalEducationLecturerRobMerrellsvolunteeredtohavebothhisheadshavedandlegswaxedfortheoccasion.MrMerrellssignedupinsupportofhisyoungersisterJesswhowasdiagnosedwithacutelymphoblasticleukaemiain2009.Heraisedmorethan2000 for the Leukaemia Foundation. Health and Physical Education Lecturer Rob Merrells volunteered to have both his head shaved and legs waxed for the occasion. Mr Merrells signed up in support of his younger sister Jess who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in 2009. He raised more than 650 for the cause. Fremantle Dockers’ utility Matt de Boer also offered his assistance during the shave, swapping the Sherrin football for a waxing strip to remove the hair from Notre Dame student Kane Mitchell. “Today was about raising awareness of cancer in the university community,” Mr Brinsden said. “The take home message from the World’s Greatest Shave event at Notre Dame was ‘the six degrees of separation’. If cancer doesn’t affect us directly, then there is a strong possibility that we have a friend or family member who has been affected.” The money raised from the World’s Greatest Shave funds free services to support patients and their families, including information, emotional care and accommodation for regional Western Australians required to move closer to city hospitals for cancer treatment. It also funds vital research into the treatment and prevention of blood cancer. Notre Dame students coordinated the event as part of the Heath Promotion unit in the School of Health Sciences.

    Rob and Bert in Tokyo

    No full text
    This essay is steeped in contradiction: it is as much an attempt at mourning, coping, and letting go as it is an exercise in remembrance, rediscovery, and reconnection. One of the many areas of international legal scholarship where Rob Cryer left his mark is his oeuvre on the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE). To pay tribute to, and get re-acquainted with, Rob-the-person, I re-read his 2010 article on the ‘dignified dissenter’ in Tokyo, Dutch Judge Bert Röling. In that article, Rob uses the memoranda and the opinion of Bert-the-judge to assess his conceptual and legal contributions to the IMTFE judgment. They also serve him as a vehicle to get a better grasp of the author behind the text and the values and dilemmas that shaped Röling’s positions on the IMTFE bench. What more can we learn and understand about Rob Cryer while ‘reading Rob reading Bert’? What aspects of Röling’s legacy did he choose to foreground, and what qualities did he appreciate most? How did Rob treat his character when shedding light on the more contentious elements of Röling’s work? Even if this essay fails in its therapeutic purpose, it might still add a few mosaic pieces to the collective construction of Rob’s portrait in this volume
