Australian Prime Minister Gives Campus Keynote

The Honourable Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Australia, visited Carnegie Mellon University's Pittsburgh campus Sept. 24 to give a special keynote address. He was welcomed by university president Jared Cohon and Australian students Patrick Bourke and Matthew Craig. The Prime Minister made a special effort to include a visit to Carnegie Mellon before attending the G-20 Summit with President Obama and the other heads of state. Speaking on the eve of the summit, Rudd credited Andrew Carnegie's steel industry with first putting Pittsburgh in the world spotlight and credited Carnegie's university — Carnegie Mellon — with helping transform Pittsburgh into the powerhouse it is today.

In May 2006, Carnegie Mellon's Heinz College began operations in Adelaide, Australia, which serves as the college's Asia Pacific education base.

Nice speach from Kevin Rudd. He is obviously a very highly educated man. He researched Pittsburgs history well and showed a lot of respect for America. He is a good representative for Australia . They picked a good man for the job. Good luck Kevin. God Bless you and Australia . We are happy to have you as allies.

If sneaky little Kevin Rudd signs the International Climate Change Treaty in Copenhagen, we can look forward to a new World Government and Australians can kiss goodbye our National Sovereignty forever. Thanks for nothing Kev.
