You’ve got to put your stamp on things: A rippling story of success.

The topic of this chapter grew out of a national seminar in which Robyn was a member of an Indigenous higher education graduates panel that discussed a number of questions around the concept of success. Questions to the panel, and later to Robyn in a recorded telephone interview, were:
1. What constitutes success for you?
2. What motivated you to be successful?
3. What does success look like in higher education?
4. What were some of the challenges you faced in your higher education journey?
What measures provided by your family, friends and community assisted you in your successful higher education journey?
6. What measures provided by the university assisted you in your successful higher education journey?
7. What would your advice be to universities to facilitate success for Indigenous students?
8. What would your advice be to potential Indigenous higher education students to facilitate success in their study?

The focus of the narrative is initially on pathway experiences leading to a decision to undertake higher education studies, the experiences of transition and reflections on success. Robyn’s story is woven through the discussion.
