UniSA and Sir Eric celebrate
UniSA
helped former South Australian Governor, Sir Eric Neal, to celebrate his
80th birthday in July with a special afternoon tea at Mawson
Lakes.
Sir Eric, Lady Neal, and staff from the Sir Eric Neal Library marked the occassion with a cake decorated with eight small flags highlighting significant stages in his life.
While at Mawson Lakes, Sir Eric also unveiled the plaque for his portrait which hangs in the library.
The library at Mawson Lakes is home to the Sir Eric Neal Collection, which details Sir Eric’s distinguished contribution to Australian business and society, and the South Australian community.
Documents and photographs from the collection have been digitised and can now be viewed along with Sir Eric Neal’s biography in the newly created Sir Eric Neal Collection website.
