在第一節 History 近結尾處:
In April 2005, the University applied to the Victorian government to have the name "Victoria University" formally recognised in legislation (although the name had already been widely used for seven years).
At this time, Vice Chancellor Elizabeth Harman said of the word "technology", "The word reflects the past, not the future and it suggests we are a narrow specialist when in fact we are a broad educational provider".
A change of name was said to help the Uni "position itself for the future in ways that are not about an old technology specialist label or traditional approach - we are not trying to be Cambridge on the Maribyrnong River, either."
但你在睇返前少少,佢地話其實在1998年合併完成時,已開始在不同場合使用 VU 這個名稱。 //think
不過,原來這個世界上都好多間 VU:

總共有七間。計我話,原本個名其實仲好。不過呢,可能個校長又好似香港以前城大的校長鄭耀忠一樣,覺得有個「Polytechnic」、「Technology」個名就好似好碍眼吧?
