About verdant universities
The verdant universities, also referred to as the gumtree universities, are a group of Australian universities founded in the 1960s and 1970s. These tertiary institutions were established in their respective state capitals, often next to native bushland, and were usually centred around lush vegetative campuses, to which the term verdant refers. The verdant universities often stand in contrast to the older and ostensibly more prestigious sandstone universities.
