In late 2010 the University opened an $ 8 million Sport and Recreation Learning Centre in partnership with the Western Bulldogs Football Club at Whitten Oval in West Footscray.

The Club is based at the Whitten Oval in Footscray, an inner-western suburb of Melbourne, Australia.

The Western Bulldogs Community Festival and Family Day is held every summer on Whitten Oval.

* The Footscray Edgewater Cricket Club ( formally Footscray Cricket Club ) was founded in 1883 and for the first 113 years of its existence was also located at the Western Oval ( now Whitten Oval ) until 1996 when combined pressure exerted by the Footscray Football Club and state-government-appointed commissioners to the City of Maribyrnong saw the club relocated to the Mervyn G. Hughes Oval.

In 1970, the club again moved its home game to the Junction Oval in 1970, then the Whitten Oval in 1984 before eventually merging with an interstate club.

* Footscray Football Club-in 2002 moved permanently from the Whitten Oval in Footscray to the larger and more central Telstra Dome and changed their name to the Western Bulldogs, though the club's headquarters is still in Footscray.

Whitten Oval is a stadium in the inner-western suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia located at 417 Barkly Street, Footscray.

Formerly known as the Western Oval, it was renamed in honour of Ted Whitten, a former player, captain and coach for the Club.

A statue of Whitten was also erected at the entrance of the Oval.

The Whitten Oval is the centrepiece of a reserve that, from 1860, was a stone quarry used by the railways.

In 1995, the oval was renamed the Whitten Oval after the death of the football club's favourite son, Ted Whitten.

Finally, in 1997, the last official AFL game was played at Whitten Oval.

After the appointment of Campbell Rose as Chief Executive of the football club in 2002, discussions commenced on a redevelopment of Whitten Oval in which construction commenced in 2006.

In September 2004, during Grand Final week the Western Bulldogs pulled off one of the most exhilarating coups in the Club's history, with Prime Minister John Howard visiting the oval and announced that his Liberal Government will be contributing $ 8 Million to spearhead a $ 19. 5 million redevelopment of the Whitten Oval.

Mid 2009 construction began on the childcare facility and is visible from the Whitten Oval carpark.

Weightman is a diabetic, however this has not stopped him from being active, and in 2005, Weightman continued to have an impact in the EJ Whitten Legends Game at the Telstra Dome with competitors that were mostly around five or six years his junior.

The first E. J. Whitten Legends Game was played at Whitten Oval in 1995, and it has become an annual event.

The games have often attracted crowds of over 10, 000, and this has resulted in them being moved from Whitten Oval to Optus Oval, Adelaide Oval ( South Australia ) and the Telstra Dome.

Of the many challenges faced by Whitten during his 20 year career, the one with the longest-lasting repercussions was the reorganization of 1940.

This observation of menstrual synchrony in R. norvegicus is not the same as the Whitten Effect because it was the result of the continuous interactions of ongoing cycles within a female group, rather than the result of an exposure to a single external stimulus such as male odor, which in the Whitten Effect releases all exposed females simultaneously from an acyclic condition.

In 1974, Robert Bjork and William B. Whitten presented subjects with word pairs to be remembered ; however, before and after each word pair, subjects had to do a simple multiplication task for 12 seconds.

In their results, Bjork and Whitten found that the recency effect ( the increased probability of recall of the last items studied ) and the primacy effect ( the increased probability of recall of the first few items ) still remained.

Bjork and Whitten hypothesized that these results could be attributed to the memory processes at work for long-term memory retrieval versus short-term memory retrieval.
