The JCU campus in Townsville has a new name - the Bebegu Yumba campus! As part of its 50th birthday celebrations, JCU's Townsville campus has been given the name, which means “Place of Learning” in the Birri-Gubba language.

A terrific event. Thanks to Minister Fentiman and to all involved. It is such a privilege for JCU to be part of this community.
Thank-you @ShannonFentiman and all the honoured guest who made the Thursday Island AITHM Facility opening a great success!
