Adelaide University
Adelaide University's recent adoption of the Kaurna name "Tirkangkaku" has prompted a response from Kaurna Warra Pintyanthi (KWP), who say they were not consulted in the naming process.
Adelaide University has become the first in Australia to include an Aboriginal name in its founding Act, adopting 'Tirkangkaku,' meaning 'Place of Learning' in the Kaurna language.
The University of Adelaide marked its 150th year with the introduction of a new tradition: Kaurna Day: Tirkanthi - Ngutu - Taikurrinthi (Learning – Knowledge - Be united together).
