James and Ron Exiner

The Robert and Johanna Exiner scholarship was established by James and Ron Exiner on behalf of Exintel Pty Ltd and Exincorp Pty Ltd. The scholarship acknowledges the great pleasure their father, Robert, derived from studying German at the University between 1976 and 1998. Robert's affinity with German language and culture as a young person was adversely affected by the historical circumstances prevailing earlier in his life.
