When Olivah Tisbury-Brown finished year 12, he was not entirely sure what, or where, he wanted to study. So, after achieving good marks in history and watching the television program Suits starring Meghan Markle, he enrolled in a bachelor of laws at Australian Catholic University and coupled it with a bachelor of arts in Western civilisation.

The degree, which spans the study of philosophy, literature and politics from Ancient Greece to Rome, is delivered by a small team of academics.

“Staff in the Western civilisation degree, they are so passionate, and they are so motivated, and they love what they do, which makes us love what we do even more,” he said.

“This team of teachers, they are so good at what they do, they are so amazing ... and we’re so fortunate to have them.”
