The Information Systems discipline is 40 years old, in Australia, as in Scandinavia, the U.S.A., the U.K. and Germany. This paper presents what may be the first formally published attempt at a history of the discipline in this country. It identifies the precursors to the discipline, and its emergence in colleges and universities. It identifies institutions and individuals who were present at the birth, and traces key steps in organisational and political history. More controversially, it provides interpretations of the nature of the discipline and its key intellectual themes, and identifies threats to its survival.

The evidence supports the theory of self-selection in exposure to a communication: people whose views on the subject were already favorable were most apt to read the ads. However, regardless of prior opinion or awareness, exposure to the campaign resulted in a noticeable increase in information on the subject. The campaign seems to have confirmed already favorable opinion by providing supporting arguments for people whose att's were already formed. AA.
