THE RESIDENTIAL COLLEGES OF THE UNIVERSITY
The original Act of Incorporation of the University made provision for
"affiliation to or connection with" the University, of Colleges—in a context which indicates that at the date of its enactment (1853) there was some intention of making residence a qualification for membership of the University; and the section in question remains substantially unaltered (as Section 18) in the con- solidating Act of 1928. But no general definition of "college," or of "affiliation,"
has been given, for the purposes of this University; and when,, in the Act of 1923, provision was made for inclusion of "Heads of Affiliated Colleges" in the mem- bership of the University Council the term was expressly defined to mean the heads of the four colleges (named) then existing or of "any other residential college hereafter affiliated to or connected with the University pursuant to
Section IS. . . ."
The provision in the Act of Incorporation became effective through the action
•of the Slate Government, at the date when land was being reserved for purposes of university, education, in offering to the four Churches most strongly repre- sented in the State sites of approximately ten acres each—within that general University Reserve—for the founding of Colleges to be "affiliated to" the Univer- sity.
This offer was first accepted by the Church of England, which founded Trinity College iii 1870; this college was opened in 1872, and the somewhat remarkable college system of this University dates from the appointment of Dr.
Alexander Lecper as Warden of Trinity College in 1876. The University at that time had only a small staff, and no tutorial system. There was, therefore, the opportunity to establish a college tutorial system—at first for students in resi- dence, but subsequently (in 1877) also for non-resident members of the college
(men or women).
The other three colleges for which sites had been originally reserved were established as follows: Ormond College (Presbyterian, foundation, 1879), opened 1881; Queen's College (Methodist foundation, 1887) opened 1888; Newman College (Roman Catholic foundation, 1916) opened 1918.
By a subsequent Act (1933) the State Government reserved a site of over five acres, on the north side of College Crescent, "for a residential college for women at the University of Melbourne"; and University Women's College was founded in 1936, and opened in 1937, under a specifically constituted governing body.
A residential hostel for women students was established by Trinity College in 1886—which in due course became Janet Clarke Hall, within the grounds of (hat College; and Newman College has had, since its foundation, a house of residence for women students—called St. Mary's Hall—in the vicinity of the University.
The Colleges have tutorial staffs, and have developed their tutorial system in such a way as to adapt it to the rapid development of the University. Their relations with the University have grown steadily closer, and, since the University has undertaken tutorial work, arrangements have been made for co-operation in such work. All the colleges provide Resident Scholarships and Non-resident Exhibitions.
In 1920, the "Faculties'' statute was so altered as to give a recognised place to College Teachers; and the University Act 1923 made provision for the co-option of two Heads of Colleges—"in rotation so far as possible"—to the University Council.
In more recent years a joint standing committee of the Professorial Board and the Heads of Colleges has been set up for the discussion of questions ol common concern to the Colleges and the University.
In 1939 the Statutes of the five Colleges were revised so as to give adequate expression of the place of the College system in the University as baser1 «>n
experience to date. . 857

TRINITY COLLEGE
HISTORY
TRINITY COLLEGE occupies that portion of the University Reserve which was granted by the Government of Victoria to the Church of England under the authority of Parliament. T h e establishment of the College dates from the year 1870 when its founders declared that their desire was to provide a home where students of the University of Melbourne might reside under Christian discipline and receive religious instruction in accordance with the Liturgy and Doctrines of the Church of England. T h e first building, the present Warden's Lodge, was opened in 1872. The generosity of numerous benefactors is recalled by the names of buildings subsequently erected. The Bishops' Building (1876) provides a link with the first two Bishops of Melbourne—Bishops P e r r y and Moorhouse. T h e Clarke Building, begun in 1883 and completed in 1887, is named in honour of the late Sir William Clarke and his brother Mr. Joseph Clarke. T h e Horsfall Chapel (1917) recalls the munificence of the late Mr. John Sutcliffe Horsfall.
In 1920 the Council of the College adopted a comprehensive plan designed under their direction to provide for all future developments of the buildings. T h e first portion of this final scheme was formally opened in March, 1935; it contains twenty-four double sets of rooms (i.e., bedroom and separate study for each student). By resolution of the Council it has been named the Behan Build- ing in recognition of the part played by the present W a r d e n in bringing about its completion.
In 1877, by resolution of the Council, College Tutorials were thrown open to non-residents. In 1883 the benefits of College tuition were extended to women.
Trinity College has the distinction of being the first University College in Aus- tralia to take this important step.
In 1886 provision was made for the residence of women students, under the supervision of the College authorities, in certain houses in Parkvillc which were leased for the purpose with the sanction of the Council. In 1890, mainly through the beneficence of the late Janet Lady Clarke, the first portion of Janet Clarke Hall was erected within the College grounds in order to provide permanent accommodation for women. A bequest under the Will of M r . William Thomson Manifold made possible the building of the wing which bears his name. The H a l l was completed in 1930 by the erection of the E. M. Traill Wing, so-called after a former student who contributed the principal donation.
Though the College is under Anglican control, the benefits of residence and education therein have, from the outset, been made available to non-Anglicans.
In 1925 a doubt arose whether this liberal policy was permitted by the terms of the Crown Grant. The doubt was ultimately removed by the passing, at t h ' instance of the College Council, of the Trinity College Act 1927, which provides that the benefits referred to may lawfully b e extended to all members of the University irrespective of their denominational affiliations.
This brief outline shows that the College serves as a place of residence and education for members of the University of either sex and of any religious denomination, and that the benefits of College tuition are available to non-residents, whether men or women.

ORMOND COLLEGE
HISTORY
ORMOND COLLEGE occupies the site, adjoining that of Trinity College, reserved by the Government of Victoria and offered to the Presbyterian Church of Victoria for the founding of a residential college "of and within the University of Mel- bourne." In November, 1877, that Church decided to found such a college, and appointed eight Trustees and eight other representatives of the Church to give effect to the decision. In October, 1878, Mr. Francis Ormond offered to increase an original promise to £10,000, provided that a total of £20,000 were raised for the building of the College. With acceptance of this generous offer was asso- ciated the naming of the College; and the first Council of the College was appointed,
by the addition of eight representatives of subscribers to the original committee.
The foundation Stone was laid by His Excellency the Governor of Victoria (the Marquis of Normanby) on 14th November, 1879. The original building was the present main front of the College, Mr. Ormond making special provision for the Clock Tower.
John Henry MacFarland,* Master of Arts of Queen's College, Belfast, and of St. John's College, Cambridge, was appointed Master of the College—which was formally opened by H i s Excellency the Governor on 18th March, 1881. A t the opening ceremony, it was intimated that Mr. Ormond had made "the splendid and generous offer to bear the whole cost of the building of the College." In 1881, Mr. Ormond expressed his ambition to go on enlarging the College with the hope of seeing "150 or, at any rate, 100 students lodged within its walls."
In 1885, the South-West Wing and a temporary Dining Hall were opened by Mrs. Ormond. T h e original Victoria Wing (facing north-east) was opened for the year 1889.
On Sth May, 1889, the Hon. Francis Ormond died. Up to that date, he had contributed over £40,000 to the founding of the College; and his testamentary dispositions increased the total of his benefactions to the College to upwards of
£100,000—partly direct bequest, and partly residuary.
T h e College Hall (with domestic quarters adjoining) and the Master's Lodge were then added, and came into use in 1893.
Immediately after the W a r , steps were taken to complete the main College building—so as to include the MacFarland Memorial Library,f and a Students' Common Room with equal floor space. The new buildings were officially opened by His Excellency the Governor of Victoria (the E a r l of Stradbroke) on 23rd May, 1922. Since that date, the College has been able to accommodate about 120 resident students.
On the death of Sir John MacFarland (22nd July, 1935), the College became the residuary legatee of his estate—from which it will eventually benefit by about
£25,000 (including upwards of £8,000 received for Foundation Scholarships in 1932).
Other substantial benefactions, since the foundation of the College, arc not expressly named in this brief historical note.
From the beginning, the policy was adopted of placing no conditions but those of good character and adequate scholarship upon membership of the College.
Residence is restricted to men; but non-resident students, of either sex, may enrol for College Tutorials.
The College provides "accommodation for the efficient conducting of the Theological Hall" of the Presbyterian Church of Victoria—which is primarily an institution for post-graduate studies, whose graduate students are generally resident members of the College. The Theological Hall is independently financed; in particular, part of a bequest of £30,000 from John Dickson Wyselaskie provided, in 1887, the Wyselaskie Building, which includes two houses for theological professors. A third house for this purpose was built in 1929.

College Fees are paid in three equal instalments. Accounts are rendered to resident students early in each term, and have lo be paid within a stipulated time.
SCHOLARSHIPS AND E X H I B I T I O N S
An Examination for Resident Scholarships and Non-Residcnt Exhibitions, open to students entering the University in the following year, is held annually.
These Scholarships and Exhibitions are, in general, free of all restrictions; but the scholarships of the "Donald and Isa M u n r o " foundation are restricted to candidates "of Scottish descent."-
Any student already in attendance at the Lhiiversity, who wishes to be elected to a College Scholarship or Exhibition, is requested to communicate with the Master. In such cases the award is based chiefly upon the student's University record.
Scholarships range in value from £81 to £24. The value of a Non-Rcsidcnt Exhibition is £10.
F U R T H E R INFORMATION
F o r further information as to Residence and Tuition, or as to Scholarships and Exhibitions, application should be made to the Master, Ormond College, Melbourne, N.3, Victoria.
*Tn view of the extra pressure on College accommodation created by the return of Ex-servicemen to the University, extraordinary measures arc being taken to increase temporarily the size of the College.
This will involve radical departures in some instances from the normal accomnKHlation provided. In all s u c h cases appropriate adjustments in College fees will bc made.

QUEEN'S COLLEGE
HISTORY
QUEEN'S COLLEGE is built on the portion of the University Reserve granted to the Methodist Church by the Government of Victoria. It was not until 1878 that the Conference resolved to avail itself of the reserve and took the first steps towards building the College. Largely owing to the efforts of the Rev. W . A.
Quick, it was possible to lay the foundation stone on the 16th June, 1887. This ceremony was performed by H i s Excellency, the Governor of Victoria, Sir Henry Brougham Loch. T h e year 1887 being the Jubilee of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne, the College was named Queen's College. T h e College; opened on the :14th March, 1888, with a total of 18 students. T h e first Master, the Rev. Dr.
E. H . Sugden, held office for forty years.
In 1889 extension of the building became necessary, and on the 2nd April, 1890, the enlarged buildings, which included the Dining Hall and 26 rooms, were opened by Sir Matthew Davies. I n 1905 further additions were made t o the building, and again in 1910 when the eastern fa?ade was completed.
After the W a r , the pressure upon the accommodation of t h e : College was such that further extension became necessary. Largely through the advocacy and generous support of Mr. J . T . Tweddle, the central tower and a new wing (which bears his name) on the north side of the College were completed in 1923, at a cost of over £50,000, and were opened by Mr. W . T . Hattam.
Benefactions to the College in the form of scholarships and exhibitions have been quite extensive, while in relation to College development the names of Mr.
J. T. Tweddle, M r . F . J. Cato and Mr. A. M. Nicholas a r c outstanding.
In 1930 a Science Laboratory was built in the grounds, this being the gift of Messrs. A. M. and G. R. Nicholas.
Queen's College is governed by a Council of 44 members, under the general control of the Victorian and Tasmanian Conference of the Methodist Church. It is open for residence to all male students of the University without regard to their religious beliefs, while non-resident students, both men and women, are admitted to the College classes.

COLLEGE TUITION
Tutorials are held in the College. These are supplementary, and not alternative, to. University Lectures and Tutorials. Practical classes are held in Chemistry, Botany and Zoology.
College Tuition is open to non-resident students (men or women). Such students will not normally be admitted except for the whole year, and for all their subjects in which there are College Tutorials.
The fee for non-resident students is 12 guineas per annum, together with the Registration Fee of 2 guineas upon first enrolment as a member of the College.
RESIDENT SCHOLARSHIPS AND NON-RESIDENT EXHIBITIONS Resident Scholarships to the value of approximately £1,150 are available during 1946.
The T. E. Moran Scholarship is of value £80, and is generally awarded to a student who has completed the first or a higher year of a University course.
During 1946 the Council has resolved to continue the method of award of all other Scholarships which was adopted in 1945. All candidates deemed worthy of Scholarships upon the basis of their examination will receive a Scholarship of value £20. The parent or guardian of each Scholarship winner will then be invited to indicate what further assistance, if any, is necessary to make College residence possible. Scholars will be eligible to receive an additional sum from Scholarship funds, the amount of which will be determined by the Fellows of the College upon the basis of examination results and financial need. The object of the new method of award is to give maximum Scholarship assistance to able students who are not eligible for assistance from other sources.
A number of Exhibitions, of value £10 each, are awarded annually to non- resident students (both men and women).
Some of the awards are made upon the results of the College entrance examinations, which take place in November of each year, and are intended for students coming up from schools to the University. The remainder are awarded to students, who have completed their first or any higher year at the University, upon the basis of their University examination results.
Scholarships and Exhibitions are awarded for a year only, but a student may be re-elected year by year throughout his University course to a scholarship of the same or different value.
Scholarships and Exhibitions are paid in three equal instalments by way of deduction from the first, second and third term's fees.
