Students' words of wisdom to be locked in time 

Published on 28 June, 2005 

Central Queensland University final-year social work students last week sent messages to future students through a time capsule.

PhotoID:1996 Attending their last residential program at CQU Rockhampton, 21 students buried three short messages recorded on video in a time capsule to be resurrected for future final year social work students.

Social Work and Welfare Studies lecturer, Dr Daniel Teghe said the time capsule was intended to be a cumulative and ongoing link between generations of CQU social work graduates.

“Each generation will bury messages for the next year’s students to view. It will provide opportunities to strengthen and re-establish bonds between students and staff, and will also maintain strong and meaningful alumni.”.
