The University of Sydney (commonly referred to as Sydney University, Sydney Uni, USYD, or Sydney) is an Australian public research university in Sydney. Founded in 1850, it is Australia's first university and is regarded as one of its most prestigious, ranked as the world's 27th most reputable university. Five Nobel and two Crafoord laureates have been affiliated with the university as graduates and faculty.
The university comprises 16 faculties and schools, through which it offers bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. In 2011 it had 32,393 undergraduate and 16,627 graduate students.
Sydney University is a member of the prestigious Group of Eight, Academic Consortium 21, the Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU), the Association of Southeast Asian Institutions of Higher Learning, the Australia-Africa Universities Network (AAUN), the Association of Commonwealth Universities and the Worldwide Universities Network. The University is also colloquially known as one of Australia's sandstone universities.
The main campus has been ranked in the top 10 of the world's most beautiful universities by the British Daily Telegraph, The Huffington Post, among others such as Oxford and Cambridge and is spread across the inner-city suburbs of Camperdown and Darlington.
Originally housed in what is now Sydney Grammar School, in 1855 the government granted land in Grose Farm to the university, three kilometres from the city, which is now the main Camperdown campus. The architect Edmund Blacket designed the original Neo-Gothic sandstone Quadrangle and Great Tower buildings, which were completed in 1862.
The Jacaranda tree in the main quadrangle was planted in 1928.

These architecturally significant buildings are abutted on two sides by equally significant suburban bush and the nearby Lane Cove National Park. The land, and I presume the buildings, were purchased by the University of Technology, Sydney, from the taxpayer, for the parsimonious sum of 1 (yes one) Australian Dollar. The unversity recently sold most of the land for millions of dollars to the Defence Housing Authority to allow for the construction of residential buildings housing about 350 people. As a near neighbour I'm NOT happy, Jan!! It's interesting that our near neighbour WAS our recently elected NSW State Premier, Mr Barry O'Farrell (AKA by some as Mr Fatty O'Barrell), who appears to have removed himself from the area as fast as his fat little legs will carry him. Perhaps he was not happy with all the extra traffic being introduced to the backstreet running past his former home.
Oh well, that's life but I'm genuinely concerned for the quality and future of the nearby bush which is not only an important bushland corridor but is in relatively good condition. But for how long, the indications are not good.
