'In a 1991 editorial for Australian Aboriginal Studies to inaugurate his term as Principal of AIATSIS, Bill Jonas wrote that the Institute had a tradition of scholars pursuing multidisciplinary research that was based on excellence and sensitivity towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. He stressed that no one wants excellence more than Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and added that research had to be done properly for such a tradition to continue.'
