We call them brownstones in australia - because they are all made of sandstone


[edit] I think you mean 'sandstone universities' [1]. 'Brownstone' is generally a US word (plus most Australian sandstone is not brown).

Yeh it's sandstone. Group of 8 is also sometimes used because ANU and Monash wanted to be included :P
