Foundation Day is on its way! It’s a chance to have fun and celebrate what makes CSU great. Here’s what you need to know:
History
As the name implies, Foundation Day marks the founding of CSU. The University was established on 19 July 1989. That was 29 years ago! Click here to find out the history of your campus and what existed in place of your classrooms now.
A day of celebration
Foundation Day is all about celebrating where we came from, who we are and where we are going. It’s a day to be proud of our CSU culture and community. We celebrate you – our students, staff and alumni because you are the reason we are a striving and growing University!
Each year on this monumental day, our CSU community unite to reflect on our historical foundation and the footprints of those who have led us to where we are; to celebrate our present, including the current students and staff; and to anticipate our future together.
