  • 12 Part 1 Residental Colleges of the University
    The Residential Colleges of the University 1997 The establishment of residential colleges was envisaged from the foundation of the University and their affiliation was expressly provided for in the original Act of Incorporation. The Government set aside sites for the purpose within the area generally reserved for the University. The first of the colleges, Trinity (an Anglican foundation of 1870), was opened in 1872. The first Warden of Trinity, Alexander Leeper, quickly built up a comprehensive system of college teaching. This was adopted by other colleges on their foundation, and remains a distinguishing feature of the Melbourne collegiate system. So too, do the large enrolment of non-resident students and the provision of significant college libraries, now supplemented by computer installations. The college tutorial system (in which International House and Medley Hall also participate) is in general supplementary to teaching offered by the University's faculties, and is organized in part on an intercollegiate basis. Formal links with the University on academic matters are maintained through a Joint Committee of the Academic Board and the Heads of Colleges, and under a Statute of the University (S5.1.2), "any teacher in an affiliated institution" may be appointed to membership of a faculty. Heads of colleges sit in rotation as co-opted members of the University Council, and play a considerable part in the committee work of the University. The other three colleges for which sites had been originally reserved were established as follows: Ormond (Presbyterian foundation, 1870), opened 1881; Queen's (Methodist foundation, 1887), opened 1888; Newman (Roman Catholic foundation, 1916), opened 1918.

  • Historic Campus Tour[1]
    Historic Campus Tour Founded in 1853 by an act of the Victorian Parliament, the University of Melbourne today is a thriving, internationally acknowledged research university and an integral part of the cultural life of the city of Melbourne. The images contained in this document are from the University of Melbourne Archives image collection. http://www.lib.unimelb.edu.au/collections/archives/ 1. The Ian Potter Museum of Art. The Ian Potter Museum of Art was designed in 1998 by Nonda Katsalidis and houses the University’s extensive art collection, which ranges from classical antiquity to contemporary art. Features include the external sculpture, Christine O'Loughlin's Cultural Rubble and inside the lobby Napier Waller's Leckie Window, from the original Wilson Hall. Title: Leckie Window, Old Wilson Hall, University of Melbourne, circa 1935. Record ID UMA/I/1369 The original campus was set in a large area north of Grattan Street. Today the campus has expanded well beyond these boundaries. Title: University of Melbourne Plan, 1855. Record ID UMA/I/1970 2. Elisabeth Murdoch Building. Previously named Old Pathology, this building housed the Medical School from the 1880s. Reed and Barnes, a major nineteenth century architectural practice, designed the building. This practice and its successor partnerships designed many of the city’s buildings, including many at the University of Melbourne. Title: Old Pathology building, University of Melbourne, circa 1955.
