All members of the group except ANU, UNSW and Monash are known as "sandstone universities", and all of their primary campuses are based in the five largest Australian capital cities.
The group, in arguing for prioritisation of research funding and in lobbying for increased funding for the largest and most popular campuses, sometimes finds itself at odds with smaller, regional and rural universities.
