Margaret Trask: a tribute

As this issue of the journal was going to press, word came in that Margaret Trask had died: a future issue will contain a fuller account of Margaret's life and her immense contribution to the Association and the profession. With permission, we publish here the citation for the award to her of the degree Doctor of the University, The University of Technology, Sydney. Unfortunately, Margaret died before the Doctorate could be conferred. The announcement of her death and the citation were consequently broadcast to members of the University by the chancellor, Gerard Brennan.
