Wollongong University vice-chancellor Professor Gerard Sutton paid tribute last night to his friend, ``great guy" George Edgar.

Mr Edgar, who achieved his first science degree in metallurgy at the University of NSW's Wollongong college (Wollongong University since 1975), sits on the University Council and is its deputy chancellor.

Prof Sutton said: ``George has made an outstanding contribution to the region through his leadership at the steelworks, which is now possibly the most efficient in the world.

``He is a man of great personal integrity, a man of his word - totally trustworthy."
