Second year Bachelor of Arts student, Matthew Taylor, clearly remembers the moment he knew he wanted to come to UQ.

"When I was four, my pre-school went on a trip to The University of Queensland. My mum says that when I got home I told her I was going there when I grew up. I think at the time it was the huge castle, the colourful trees and the grown-ups lying around on the grass. When it came time for university, UQ was the only place I applied for. And, as it turns out, UQ is so much more than sandstone buildings, jacaranda trees and lazing around in the great court. It’s a place of learning where industry leaders open your mind to new theories and ideas; friends come together and discuss last week’s big game and the relevance of Nietzsche’s work on language; and where you are continuously encouraged to think bigger and be better than you thought you could be."
