I once plugged a camel’s nose.”
After graduation Nick started working in a mixed practice in Goulburn and he married his first wife and had three children. He then set up his own practice and purchased a small farm, breeding Australian stockhorses and running sheep and cattle, before moving to Canowindra and then Parkes, working at different practices.

Jeremy Phillip Merrick Long OAM, in College 1950-53, b. 11 April 1932, d. 9 September 2021 in Sydney, formerly of Glebe NSW. BA 1954. Anthropologist with the Northern Territory Welfare Branch: Patrol Officer 1955-57, Settlement Superintendent at Haasts Bluff 1958-59, and Research Officer 1960-68. In the Commonwealth Department of Aboriginal Affairs: Deputy Secretary 1975-82, Commissioner for Community Relations 1982-86. Visiting research fellow Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies from April 1987.
In the 1950s there were still Pintupi families living their traditional nomadic desert lifestyle who had no idea the First Fleet had arrived and changed their continent forever. In 1957 Jeremy Long was chosen to be a member of a special expedition to find out how many Aboriginal people were still living out in the desert – and whether any government help was needed. Jeremy was “a silent witness as the curtains came down on a culture that had endured for 40,000 years”.
Of the 48 individuals Long met on that first trip, all but three had never seen a white man before. “It must have been a bit of a shock to them,” said Long. “To think white people had been in the country for 200 years but there were still people out here who didn’t know it. They were still functioning in this unfriendly country, leading relatively happy lives in this hostile environment.” Between 1957 and 1964, Long took part in nine patrols to the Western Desert. It was a period of fundamental change.
(Extracts from an article about Colliding Worlds a touring exhibition by the National Museum of Australia in 2006 which explored more than 50 years of first contact between whites and the native peoples of the Western Desert, from 1932 to 1984)
Jeremy said at the opening of the exhibition: “it was pretty amazing seeing these people who are living quite independently in the desert with the tools they could make themselves, eating every day the food they could gather.”
One of Jeremy’s articles on the dispersal of Aboriginal peoples from the Western Desert can be found here: http://press-files.anu.edu.au/downloads/press/p72111/pdf/article027.pdf.
Jeremy made a generous donation to the College in support of the Medical Alumni Scholarships in 2018 and more recently he gave to the College Archives some of his photos from the 1950s as ell as his College blazer from the time he was resident.

He is fondly remembered for his love of the profession, his mentorship and guidance of many in the veterinary community, and his skill and knowledge as Australia’s preeminent veterinary eye specialist.
“Rowan Blogg grew up riding horses on the outskirts of Melbourne, which led to his love of animals and a desire to become a veterinarian. He resided at St Paul’s College, Sydney University, where he studied Veterinary Medicine. He began large animal practice in Gippsland, but under the mentorship of Stan Dennis he switched to small animal practice,” said Dr Blogg’s son Dr James Blogg.
“After setting up his practice in Armadale, he began to provide honorary services to Lady Nell Seeing Eye Dog School, where he noticed many of the dogs had visual problems. Dr Dennis then suggested Rowan pursue studies in ophthalmology in Kansas, United States, where he completed his Master’s degree. Upon returning to Australia, he built Malvern Animal Hospital, which eventually housed his speciality eye practice.”
