” We see the wonderful transformation of groups working together including Becton Corporation, the University of Melbourne, and the YMCA.
You’d be hard pressed to find a better standard of student
accommodation anywhere in the world.
It’s a great development for students from overseas,
interstate and country Victoria.
The export of education is now one of our largest exporters for
Victoria generating about 1.1 billion dollars in export earnings, so a
development like this has a potential of further developing that great
export of education we have in Australia and particularly in Victoria.
College Square is an example of what can be achieved when all
levels of Government and the private sector work together in
building high quality university facilities for the community.
Again I congratulate Becton on this excellent development.”
