Welcome to Jack Robertson's "Oz Elite" letter-writing campaign archive. Below are some of the open letters I have green-penned off to the academic, intellectual, political and artistic leaders who make up Australia's correctly maligned 'elite'.

A six-part open-letter package incorporating correspondence between myself and the Dean of Melbourne University's Faculty of Science Professor John [K-Where's-Wally-K-Waldo?...Faculty of Ghost-in-the-Machine]. In early 2000, as a graduate of this Faculty, I received an unexpected administrative letter from Professor [K-Waldo] which included a
