June Luncheon
Carmel Shute: Why women turn to crime (fiction)
On Wednesday 4th of June, we received speaker Carmel Shute to our Montlhy Luncheon. Her talk on women’s interest in crime literature, whether it is as readers or writers, was a treat for our Members on this last Luncheon of the semester.
We thank Dr. Pat Smith for the following report on this talk.
And if it piques your interest, you can read Carmel’s lecture on the Sisters in Crime website (sistersincrime.org.au).
We should feel very pleased with ourselves! I am referring to the many participants that rugged up and came to Graduate House for the June Luncheon because they were intrigued with Carmel Shute’s topic, “Why women turn to Crime (Fiction)”. What a good decision.
We were involved from the onset. Talk overheard during the meal naturally revolved around the current crime. Death by mushroom. Opinions differed. “Remember the Azaria case. We were quick to condemn. Quite wrongly.” Others mentioned that there didn’t seem to be a motive; there is too much inconsistency in her evidence; she lied about the cancer; the SIM card changes; the checking for where the mushrooms could be found. No one was shy as they talked about crime. Opinion was divided about guilt or innocence. Many women seem to be interested in true crime. Observe the numbers turning up to the Morwell Court.
At our table there were discussions about our favourite crime writers. Some we had all read and further on in her talk others were enthusiastically spoken about. We even had a newby writer switching genres. Talking about my reading is not a problem too but, when Martin Comte (Yes, his fingers are in pies everywhere) asked me
Speaker Carmel Shute and Member Dr. Pat Smith
to write about Carmel’s talk, I was thinking I would be out of my depth. I am more used to writing about children’s literature. Not to worry! Carmel, very early on, talked about her own introduction to crime through reading Enid Blyton, particularly Five Go Adventuring Again, which happened to be my own top pick of the series. Blyton’s books are looked down on by the pundits. However, Blyton’s series had six million sales way back in 1953 and continues to sell but there is no lesson learned. Crime writers are not a feature at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival, for example.
Carmel, later in her talk, told us about a particular aspect of her Sisters in Crime organisation that had resulted from her early reading. To unearth talent, Sisters in Crime set up the Scarlet Stiletto short story competition that is now in its 32nd year. Women’s books often didn’t get a look in the Australian Crime Writers’ Association Ned Kelly Awards so in 2001 it set up the Davitt Awards, (named after Ellen Davitt who wrote Australia’s first fulllength murder mystery, Force and Fraud,
in 1856). These awards certainly helped because now, instead of seven books in contention 25 years ago, there are 150 books competing this year. Women have also made a difference bringing true crime to the forefront of a wide audience. Women in Australia have taken to reading crime for some interesting reasons. Crime written by women resonates because, while most men write from a position of privilege, they write with an understanding of the consequences of male violence, especially at home. They can empathize because they can imagine themselves as the victims and try to understand the motives of the male perpetrators. Maybe this understanding will help in their real lives.
The talk continued with Carmel exploring for us the reasons why crime fiction has such an enduring appeal. She argues that male writers are at a loss because the private eye/hero is not viable. “Women’s books are light on gunplay and heavy on emotional violence.” Another compelling reason for their popularity is that they set the action in Australian place and time. It was very interesting to listen to the story of many successful crime writers and the passionate work being done by Sisters in Crime. Carmel does show us that the most notable achievement is the sheer amount of pleasure and fun they engender. The photos are testament to this. A smile on every face.
Thank you, Carmel, for a thought provoking monthly luncheon experience.

113th Annual General Meeting of the Graduate Union
Held 29th of May of 2025, the Annual General Meeting (AGM) was presided by the President, The Hon Diana Bryant AO KC, who welcomed all participant members. Apologies were read, quorum was confirmed and no conflicts of interest was declared and the minutes of the AGM No. 112, held 30 May 2024, was adopted as a true record.
The President advised that the President’s Message in The Melbourne Graduate was sent to all Members prior to the AGM and was also available at the meeting.
The President further advised that the year had largely been taken up by the Council’s focus on the Master Plan development for stage 1 of the site, she commended Council’s great work for embracing the opportunity we have to chart our future in an innovative way.
It was noted that at the Special General Meeting held in March 2025, Members amended the Rules allowing for the extension of term for the President and the President thanked Council for their vote of confidence in her to keep her role for another 3 years.
The report from the Chair of Council, Cr
Natalie Gray, began with welcoming all participant Members and emphasised Council’s resolve to involve Members in the life of the Graduate Union.
The Chair commended the expertise of the current Council and members of the committees. It was noted that Council changed the structure of its committees during 2025 to better align with the Strategic Plan 2024-2026.
The Chair commended members of Council for their international efforts on behalf of the Association during 2024.
Thanks were extended to Cr Comte and Cr Stephens for the successful mentoring program, noting that the program will be repeated in 2025 due to popularity with Members.
2024 saw much activity with the
Association’s scholarship program:
- The Watson family donated funds to support a resident, Prerana Chatterjee, to undertake additional study.
- The McCredie family donated funds to support postgraduate indigenous educators contributing to teaching at the University of Melbourne
- The Graduate Union is supporting visiting scholars to the University. Accommodation is provided, with scholars contributing to collegiality and membership programs.
The Chair thanked Lady Josephine Blyton who very generously offered her home for the April Garden Party and Honorary Life Member Paul Barnett for his continuing support of the Chair and his generous support of the Association.
Following the Chair’s report, the General Manager, Mr Daniel Clark, presented his annual report, highlighting the improvements during 2024, particularly:
-Overall college occupancy was 88.4% rising from 85.5% in 2023
-Continued growth with Meeting Services
-New collegiate events that were well attended:
- Re-introduction of the Twilight Series
- 3MBS Recital Series at Graduate House
-Monthly Luncheons remaining a steady drawcard
-Scholars in Residence program to begin in 2025 with this new direction coming out of a bequest from David and Yvonne McCredie. Their bequest will allow a visiting Australian
Indigenous Scholar to stay at Graduate House. Using the concept, discussions with the University of Melbourne and subsequently the Indigenous Law Hub of the Melbourne Law School will see other scholars accommodated at Graduate House thanks to the donations received.
The General Manager thanked Council and the Committees for their hard work during 2024, and also thanked Members for their attendance at events and their bequests and donations.
There was a special mention to Shirley Ho, who worked as the Editor for the Association for 16 years, and retired at the end of 2024, her contribution to Members will be missed. He also predicted a significant change to the precinct with the opening of the Parkville Metro Station in late 2025 which will see increased activity for the area. A refurbishment of University Square by the City of Melbourne is also scheduled to commence in late 2025.
To conclude his message, the General Manager thanked the staff for their dedicated work throughout the year and their ongoing service to the community of the Graduate Union.
The Chair of the Finance Committee, Cr Jane Tisdall, spoke to the Association’s Financial Report for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Cr Tisdall noted that 2024 was a year of consolidation with a focus on the implementation of the strategic plan. It saw an increase in revenue, mainly from accommodation and catering, realising an
overall increase in revenue.
There was an increase in expenditure, proportionate with revenue increases. Capex expenditure, along with expenditure related to the Graduate House Master Plan project, was within budget. There was also the opportunity to pay down some debt.
She made a special mention to acknowledge Mr Leo Santalucia, retiring member of the Finance Committee, for his tireless work over many years. Thanks were also extended to other members for the Finance Committee for their support during 2024/2025.
Regarding the appointment of auditor for the next financial report, the president spoke of the Finance Committee’s satisfaction with the work of the Association’s auditor, so it was recommended to Members the reappointment of the current auditor.
It was then resolved that the appointment of Mr Wayne Tarrant, of MVA Bennett, to undertake the independent audit for the financial year ending 31 December 2025 be approved.
Recognition of service was made by the President, acknowledging the work of Members who, through the volunteering of their time and skills maintain the organisation’s existence. Four Members were specially mentioned:
- Cr Vincent Mirabelli – finished his term as chair of Council last year and this year he finished on Council. Cr Mirabelli had done an outstanding job in steering the Association through COVID and very difficult times. He was presented with a gift last year;
- Mr Leo Santalucia – finished his term after
six years on the Finance Committee and had also been on Council. He was thanked for his generous and insightful service to the Association. He was presented with a gift;
- Ms Janette Hocking – finished her six-year term on the Advancement Committee. Ms Hocking was commended for her generous and knowledgeable service. She was presented with a gift in absentia;
- Cr David Israel – finished a three-year appointment on Council as one of the two Vice Chancellor’s representatives. Cr Israel had supported strong links between the Association and the University and was an insightful contributor to the Governance Committee. He was presented with a gift in absentia.
The President also noted the following Members who were new to governance roles during 2024-2025:
- Cr Kylie O’Connell, finishing as a Vice Chancellor representative and becoming a Member-elected Councillor;
- Cr Virgina Ross, joining Council as a Council appointee;
- Cr Russell Maisner, joining Council as a Council appointee;
- Ms Cindy Huang, who joined the Advancement Committee;
- Ms Laurice Asmar, who joined the Facilities Committee;
- Dr Sally Male, who joined the Governance Committee.
Master Planning updates were delivered by the Chair of Council, noting that the direction of the Master Plan has evolved
and is looking to be an exciting and greatly beneficial opportunity for the Association.
Feedback from the expressions of interest process conducted in late 2024 and early 2025 indicated that there are missed opportunities to attract top tier development partners due to a limited scope. Discussions with the Melbourne Business School (MBS) have brought forward potentially beneficial opportunities for both the Graduate Union and MBS. A full development of the Eastern Precinct along University Square could attract significant interest and open up the development opportunities to a broader cohort of investors.
A joint study group from the Graduate Union and MBS is planning a trip to top tier Universities in the USA who have already developed this model of facilities and accommodation. This tour will be selffunded by participants.
Cr Gray undertook to keep Members informed of developments as they progress.
The date for the next Annual General Meeting was set for Thursday 28 May 2026.
The meeting closed at 6.28 and Members proceeded to the Ian Potter and Stillwell rooms for the AGM dinner, with guest speaker Collette Brennan, CEO of the National Trust of Australia (Victoria). w

Member interview series
With Dr. Ruihong (Julie) Huang
Graduate Union Council member and Deputy Chair, Emeritus Professor Martin Comte OAM, continues his interview series with resident Members of Graduate House.
MC: Many thanks for agreeing to be interviewed, Julie. I have been especially looking forward to this. I understand that prior to coming here you were working as a radiation oncologist in China. (As an aside, I have a personal interest in this field as I spent last year on a cancer journey and will forever be grateful to my two radiation oncologists). I know that you are now here to do your PhD at The University of Melbourne in a related medical field, but not in radiation itself. But let’s start with your career path since you graduated from high school in China.
JH: After I completed high school in my city of Chaozhou, I was somewhat confused: I had worked so hard in the last three years of school in order to get a good mark – but I had not given much thought to what I would do in the future. My parents wanted me to become a teacher, but I didn’t wish to pursue that path. I wanted to study biology in university, but they disagreed. Choosing to do medicine was sort of a compromise. We didn’t have a doctor in the family, but my sister pointed out to me that this was not an easy path. I liked the idea of a challenge, however, and chose to study medicine at Shantou University Medical College in Shantou. I did a five-year bachelor’s degree in medicine and then studied oncology for a further two years. After that I worked as a radiation oncologist for five years.
MC: Tell me about the prestigious fellowship
that you were awarded that has enabled you to come here for the duration of your PhD studies at The University of Melbourne.
JH: The Li-ka-shing Foundation in China is sponsoring me. Li-ka-Shing is a very wealthy and generous entrepreneur who has provided many fellowships over the years to enable people to study abroad. I was fortunate to pass the interview and receive this opportunity. I was newly married at the time: my husband – who was a medical oncologist and is now a nutritionist – has remained in China. He considered quitting his job to accompany me to Melbourne during my studies, but I didn’t want him to make such a sacrifice. It was a tough decision, but we ultimately felt it was better to focus on our own careers even though it means living apart for a while.
MC: You clearly were an extremely deserving candidate to have been selected by the Li-ka-shing Foundation. Were your oncology studies in China concerned with both chemotherapy and radiation therapy?
JH: Yes, we are trained in both. If a patient is going to be administered both radiation and chemotherapy we would see them. But if they are only going to have chemotherapy they would be admitted to the medical oncology department under a medical oncologist.
MC: Is your PhD research concerned with radiation oncology?
JH: No, it is in the field of immune therapy. With chemotherapy there is an element of toxicity, and it can also cause damage to other healthy tissue, but with immune therapy we use the patient’s own immune system to attack the mutative cells and kill the cancer. My PhD research is in the field of CAR-T cell therapy where the patient’s own T cells are genetically modified to recognise and kill cancer cells. It has shown some success in certain blood cancers, but
it has had limited effect on solid tumours. Research is currently looking at how to enhance the efficacy of the CAR-T cells. This is what the lab I am working in at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre is doing. My own PhD research involves testing treatments in mice bearing solid tumours. If successful it may eventually proceed to the clinical trials.
MC: There must be a degree of frustration or disappointment in this kind of research?
JH: I have been lucky in my life: everything has gone quite smoothly. I haven’t experienced many frustrations – but the PhD study is a bit of a challenge.
MC: Whilst a level of frustration – to say the least – is the ‘lot’ of PhD research, in your case you don’t have your husband or family and friends here to support you. You must feel this at times.
JH: Before I came I told my husband that without him being here with me I would be able to fully focus on my studies. But it doesn’t work like that!
MC: Sometimes we under-estimate how much we need other people for emotional support when undertaking a PhD. So you have now been here for just on two years?
JH: Yes, I arrived in Melbourne on June the 1st, 2023.
MC: How did you come to choose Graduate House to live in?
JH: One of my colleagues from the hospital in China that I was working in recommended Graduate House to me. But when I arrived I was staying in an apartment near Flinders Street Station. Then someone from The University of Melbourne also recommended Graduate House. I liked that it offered breakfast and dinner. I’m pleased that they have added some changes to the menu this semester because at the beginning of the year I was considering moving out. I had some criticisms of the food. I discussed
it with my husband and he believed that I should stay here and not move into an apartment where I would have to cook for myself (and eat alone). I also discussed it with some of my friends in the lab and one said that after working all day in the lab and then going home and having to cook and not talk to anyone was not healthy.
MC: I agree. At least you know that there are other people here: you don’t have to talk to them, but you can! I know from being an international student myself many years ago that when you live in an apartment by yourself it can be extremely lonely. This is an important advantage of living in a residential college like Graduate House. What about the rooms? Are they comfortable?
JH: Yes, I have a double room and it is very spacious. I have seen other rooms in some student apartment buildings and they are extremely tiny. My friend has described some student apartments as ‘shoe boxes’! I sent a photo of my room here to a friend who is doing a PhD in Hong Kong. She wrote back and said “I can’t believe you’re living in such a palatial room”!
MC: I too have seen some purpose-built student apartments elsewhere and been surprised at how small they were. Having a double room here must be especially pleasing. I remember you telling me that you’ve made a number of friends here and have engaged in several activities with them.
JH: I have travelled to Sydney and Hobart with some residents from here. The Sydney trip was to celebrate one of the residents completing his PhD. And we went to Hobart in January this year, when the kitchen was taking a break, and everyone in my lab was on holiday. I loved Hobart. It was beautiful. And I remember visiting Port Arthur and hearing about its history. And during the first Christmas that I spent in Melbourne in 2023, my friends took me on a road trip
to South Australia. We went hiking and I loved it. When my husband came out to visit in March this year I wanted to go back to Tasmania, so we went to Launceston. In addition to exploring there I wanted to go hiking on Cradle Mountain. In the previous year when he visited we went along the Great Ocean Road.
Another thing I like about Graduate House is meeting other residents and them ‘spontaneously’ suggesting that we do something. Just a few days ago someone suggested at dinner that we go and see the new movie, ‘Mission Impossible’. This is a special advantage of living here. You can find people with common interests. I really like musicals and I have found some people who like to go with me. Recently I went with one of the residents to see a performance of Les Misérables by an international touring company in celebration of the musical’s 40th anniversary. It’s especially comforting to be able to go out on a night with someone else.
MC: If you could change anything about Graduate House what would it be?
JH: Maybe the food. But in saying this I can see that they have tried so hard to accommodate people’s tastes. However, I would like to have more green vegetables. I would hope that they could increase the budget for buying the ingredients.
MC: Julie, it has been such a pleasure to interview you. I’m so delighted that in addition to your demanding PhD research you are finding time to explore the delights of Melbourne and much further afield. I hope you will continue to travel widely during your study here. And I’m delighted that you have found comfort and joy in being part of the Graduate House community. We, of course, are honoured in having you living here and contributing to our scholarly community. I wish you every success in your PhD research. w
Chess for the future generations: the refurbishment of the public chessboards at the State Library of Victoria
The giant chessboards at the forecourt of the State Victoria Library have been recently reburbished. From the old vinyl pieces to stone ones, the new boards provide chess enthusiasts with a long lasting place to enjoy the game in the heart of the city.
The new pieces are made from two different Australian stones: exfoliated Harcourt Granite from Mount Alexander for the white pieces and Australian Bluestone from Port Fairy for the black ones.
This incredible upgrade was possible thanks to the library’s generous donors, who according to the State Library’s statement, helped to raise more than $50,000 for the 2023 End Of Year Appeal. The former Chair of the Graduate Union, Rhys Watson, has been part of this process as the great grandnephew of Magnus Victor (MV) Anderson, the greatest contributor of chess material to the Library. MV Anderson’s collection has now become the third biggest chess collection in the world, according to the State Library.
As a keeper of his great granduncle’s legacy, Rhys Watson tells the State Library website that contributing to the library is beyond the legacy, ‘it’s about the relevance of chess for the next generation’.
‘The chessboards in the forecourt are an inspired initiative by the Library. To see them become permanent is very exciting. It helps draw attention to the collection and encourages the next generation to have an interest in chess, and we’re delighted to be a small part of that process’, he says.
The former Chair of the Graduate Union also claims that the importance of these boards lays in their accesibility and immersiveness, ‘you can move the pieces and walk onto the board. It’s a far more engaging activity than sitting down at a table or, these days, a computer screen. And I think it beckons people to come inside and engage with the other activities the Library has to offer.’
‘I’ve watched the games outside of the Library numerous times, and I’ve always been fascinated by who’s playing and the variety of engagement,’ says Watson. ‘I think there’s a few regulars there who take it seriously but when I see a young family with children playing, that’s really exciting because that’s the future – the next generation.’
‘There are not many games that offer that sort of opportunity for engagement,’ he continues. ‘When you sit down at a chessboard, everyone’s equal. I can sit down and play chess with you or anyone else and who we are, what our background is, what our gender is, disability or not, it all fades away. It’s about the mind. You don’t have to be doing bench presses. If you have mobility issues, you can still play chess. For me, that has a wonderful appeal.’ w

The Royal Scots Club in Edinburgh
Created in 1919, The Royal Scots Club has been an Edinburgh institution for over a century. The Club was created as a useful and livable memorial for the fallen soldiers who served in The Royal Scots during the Great War, an idea conceived by Colonel Lord Henry Scott, fourth son of the sixth Duke of Buccleuch, whose proposal was agreed stating that:
“It is advisable at this time that steps at once be taken to provide a suitable Memorial to the Officers, Non-Commissioned Officers and Men of the Regiment, who have laid down their lives for their country in the recent war, and that this Memorial should take the form of a Soldiers’ Club, from which all the help and other schemes of the Regiment can be worked”.
Following this resolution, a temporary location was established after the
agreement in 1919, and the following year, the Club acquired 30 and 31 Abercromby Place, house to house the Club in the heart of Edinburgh, until today.
After several extensions and refurbishments over the years, the entrance hall to the club still houses the memorials to the Royal Scots that served during WWI and WWII, the core to the clubs foundation, and beyod that historic entrance, the Club possesses a number of bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities; a beautiful, Georgian, fifty-cover dining room; a members’ lounge and a library; a non-members’ cocktail bar and lounge and six rooms with excellent conference and banqueting facilities for meetings, conferences, private lunches, dinners or weddings.
Staying at The Royal Scots Club
The club has thirty-one rooms available
for guests to have a wonderful stay in the Scottish capital. Each room has been individually designed in a traditional style and provide maximum comfort for members in a range that goes from luxurious to cosy. Guests can admire wonderful views of Edinburgh or the East Queen Street Gardens from the comfort of their room, while being a walking distance from theaters, restaurants and the city centre.
Dining
Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be enjoyed at the Club in the bar and dining room. Both spaces offer a selection of dishes prepared with the best seasonal local produce, to offer diners a taste of the authentic Scottish flavour.
Private dining is available for two or a hundred and sixty guest. The Club has four private dining rooms available to accommodate members and their different needs, all of them with traditional charm that will add a touch of distinction to any intimate dining occasion or large celebration.
If you’re planning to visit Edinburgh soon, and would like to stay at the Royal Scots Club, please contact our front desk and ask for a letter of introduction, and we will be more than glad to guide you through the process of staying at this or any other of our partner clubs around the world.
