Under the powers given by this Act, it was determined to found three Colleges. Galway was selected as one of the sites ; and on Dec. 30, 1845, Letters Patent were issued incorporating it under the name and style of " THE PRESIDENT, VICE-PRESIDENT, AND PROFESSORS OF QUEEN'S COLLEGE, GALWAY." The College was opened for Students on October 30, 1849. The Presidents and Vice-Presidents of the three Queen's Colleges constituted a Board of Government till the foundation of the Queen's University in 1850 By the University Education (Ireland) Act, 1879, pro vision was made for the foundation of the Royal Uni versity and the dissolution of the Queen's University within two vears from the date of the Charter of the Royal University. All Graduates and Matriculated Students of the Queen's University at the time of dissolution became Graduates and Students of the Royal University, and all existing Professors of the Queen's Colleges continued to be University Professors. The Charter of the Royal University was granted on April 27, 1880, and the Queen's University was dis solved on February 3, 1882. By the Irish Universities Act (1908), Queen's College, Galway, became a Constituent College of the National University. A new Charter for the College was issued on the 20th December, 1908, changing the name of the College to University College, Galway. In 1929 the " University College, Galway, Act," was enacted by the Oireachtas of Saorstát Éireanu. The following isJames a copy Hardiman of the Library,Act: NUI Galway [Uimh. 35].
