News in Brief
News in Brief Through the Fire The November Adelaidean featured a story on a new online disaster simulation program called "Through the Fire" which referred to Dr Holger Maier enlisting the help of Ms Sheila Kavanagh and other university staff to develop the program. In fact, "Through the Fire" was developed collaboratively, with Ms Kavanagh enlisting the help of Dr Maier after having seen his other award-winning online simulations. The error occurred due to a mistake in the editing process. The Adelaidean apologises for any inconvenience caused.

The exhibition, titled Package Paintings, is presented by the university's Art & Heritage Collections, in collaboration with the Greenaway Art Gallery. It will be on display in the Barr Smith Library until December 17 during library opening hours.
