CQU Vice-Chancellor Professor John Rickard has welcomed Olympic champion cyclist Anna Meares as an ambassador for the University.
Speaking to the crowd assembled at this week's (Thursday) Relay for Life Clip for Cancer at the Rockhampton Campus Commercial Courtyard, Professor Rickard said the University would find ways to support Anna's sporting endeavours.
In return, Anna has agreed to be involved in relevant University initiatives.
Professor Rickard said the Clip for Cancer event was a good example of Anna's potential role.
