28 Affiliated Colleges - Trinity College AFFILIATED COLLEGES. The establishment of Affiliated Colleges is specially pro­ vided for in the Act of Incorporation, as will be perceived by a reference to the 8th clause of that measure. The Church of Kngland is the only denomination that has yet availed itself of the right thus accorded. Their founda­ tion, which bears the name of Trinity College, was affiliated in February Term, 1876. A short account of this College is here appended:— TRINITY COLLEGE. Trinity College stands in a section of the University Re­ serve, facing the Sydney road. It was built by means of the voluntary contributions of members of the Church of England, supplemented by a loan from Bishop Perry. The first stone was laid on February 10, 1870, and the College was opened for the reception of Students in JulyTerm, 1872, TheBev. G.W. Torrance, M.A., had been appointed Acting Head of the College in February Term, 1872, and held office till the commencement of February Term, 1876. At this time it was determined to establish the College on a more settled basis. Mr. Torrance resigned, and the present Principal was appointed. Until then the College had been little else than a boarding-house, as there was no provision made for the instruction of .Students. Since that time, in addition to the enforcement of discipline and moral and religious supervision, the Students have been able to enjoy the advantage of regular tuition in preparation for the lectures and examinations of the University. The buildings, when completed, will consist of a Chapel, Dining Hall, Library, Provost's Irodge, Lecture Rooms, and sets of Chambers for Students. At present the Provost's Ix>dge only is built, and this has been fitted np for the reception of fourteen Students. All the internal arrangements of the College are made with especial reference to the convenience of Students attending the University lectures. The charges for residence and commons range from 30s. to £3 a week, according to the rooms selected. No Student is permitted to reside in the College for a shorter period than one full University Term. TRINITY COLLEGE. 215 All fees must be paid in advance. The tuition fees are for the present fixed at £7 7s. per Term ; but will be shortly reduced considerably. Although the College is founded as a Church of England Society, there is nothing in the Statutes to prevent the admission, as Students, of members of other denominations who may be willing to comply with the rules of the House. Applicants for admission as members of the College must furnish satisfactory evidence of good moral character. House REGULATIONS. 1. All Students must be present at prayer daily at the hours fixed by the Principal. 2. All Students must be within the College before 10 p.m., unless they receive permission to remain out till a later hour. Such permission is contingent upon regularity of attendance at morning prayer. In no case is a Student allowed to be out later than 12.15 a.m. 3. Students shall not smoke in any room in the College except that set apart for the purpose. 4. No games shall be played in the College for money stakes. 5. Any Student persistently disobeying these Rules will not be allowed to remain in the College. The College possesses a library of 1,200 volumes, of which a printed catalogue can be had on application. There is also a billiard-table, of which the Students have free use, and a reading room supplied with the best English and Australian newspapers and periodicals. GOVERNMENT. Trinity College, when incorporated and fully constituted, will be under the government of a Provost and twelve Fellows. The Provost will be elected by the Fellows, and the Fellows by Members and Subscribers. Prior to the appointment of the Provost the government is administered by o Council of twelve, consisting of the Trustees, the Prin- cinal. three elected by Members of the College, and three by contributors of £1 and upwards. The Principal and Vice- Principal are appointed by the Council. 216 TRINITY COLLEGE. One of each class of Elective Members of Council retires from office annually. Those first elected retire in the order of the number of votes obtained by them, so that those who obtained the smallest number of votes retire first, and after­ wards the Members retire in such manner that no Elective Member shall retain his seat for more than three years. Seats at the Council becoming vacant otherwise than by effluxion of time are filled up by the Council for the re­ mainder only of the period for which such seat was tenable. Retiring Councillors are capable of re-election. The Council selects persons to fill vacancies that may occur amongst the Trustees. Graduates of the University of Melbourne can be en­ rolled as Members of the College by payment of £1 Is. annually, or of a Life Composition of £5 5s. Members have the power of voting in the election of Members of the Council, and will hereafter have a similar power in the election of Fellows. Principal. ALEXANDER LEEPEB, M.A., LL.B.

  • “A Veritable Augustus”: the Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper
    “A Veritable Augustus”: The Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper Proprietor, Politician and Philanthropist (1848-1916) by Alexander Collins B.A., Grad.Dip.Loc.Hist., MSc. Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University March 2007 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ……………………….. Alexander Collins ABSTRACT Irish-born Sir John Winthrop Hackett was a man of restless energy who achieved substantial political authority and social standing by means of the power gained through his editorship and part-ownership of the West Australian newspaper and his position in parliament. He was a man with a mission who intended to be a successful businessman, sought to provide a range of cultural facilities and, finally, was the moving force in establishing a tertiary educational institution for the people of Western Australia. This thesis will argue that whatever Hackett attempted to achieve in Western Australia, his philosophy can be attributed to his Irish Protestant background including his student days at Trinity College Dublin. After arriving in Australia in 1875 and teaching at Trinity College Melbourne until 1882, his ambitions took him to Western Australia where he aspired to be accepted and recognised by the local establishment. He was determined that his achievements would not only be acknowledged by his contemporaries, but also just as importantly be remembered in posterity. After a failed attempt to run a sheep station, he found success as part-owner and editor of the West Australian newspaper.

June 1998 FTS THESIS A823.2 SAU 30001005348828 Hickman, Bronwen, 1V^\ Mary Gaunt : a biography •% xy. Declaration It is hereby certified that: 1. The work is that of the candidate alone (except where due acknowledgement has been made) and has not been submitted previously, in whole or in part, in respect of any other academic award. 2. The content of the thesis is the result of work carried out since the official date of commencement of the program. (Bronwen Hickman) Abstract If a nation's story is told by the weaving together of the strands of individual lives, the biographies of its achievers, then the story of Mary Gaunt adds an important thread of colour and interest to the tapestry of Australia's identity. Born on the Victorian goldfields in 1861, she grew up in Colonial Victoria. She was the first woman to study at Melbourne University. She travelled in the forests of West Africa and across China and wrote books and gave lectures on her travels. She was a successful novelist; she pushed against the limitations of women's lives in her own life and in her fiction, and one of her books was banned in England as a result. She lived in Europe for the second half of her life, but remained proudly Australian; many of her books were set in Australia.
