Famous professor of education at the University of Queensland in Brisbane. He wrote a book called How to Study which contained good advice like "study consistently throughout the semester". However no student is ever known to have followed this advice.

He has been immortalised in the name of the street leading to the University. Many drunk students stagger back to college late at night along this street from the Royal Exchange hotel.

Also there is a theatre in St Lucia named after him which shows art and foreign films and also Hollywood stuff, though much later than mainstream cinemas. OTOH it's still only $A4.90 for UQ students.
