Halfway through second year one of my mates discovered that the Sturt Cave had a happy hour at Friday lunchtime. For the rest of the year at midday Sturt Cave would fill with riffraff from up the hill, who by mid-afternoon would stagger in twos and threes across the bridge back to the main campus in time for the evening happy hour in the tavern.
Sadly the Flinders tavern disappeared years ago. A subtle mixture of Bureaucratic Incompetence and Voluntary Student Unionism sounded the death knell of subsidised on-campus watering holes. More's the pity.
