THE UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND. PREFACE. T he University of Queensland was inaugurated and endowed by an Act of the Legislature of Queensland which received the Royal Assent on ioth December, 1909, the fiftieth anniversary of the establishment o f. responsible government in the State. The Act, “ The University of Queensland Act of 1909,” created a body corporate consisting of a Senate and Council, and Graduate and Undergraduate Members, with perpetual succession and a common seal. The Senate.—The Senate, which is the governing body of the University, consists of twenty persons. The first members were appointed by the Governor in Council on 14th April* 1910, and on that day the University is deemed by the Act to have been constituted. The first Senate held office until 17th June, 1916. The second Senate, like all subsequent Senates, con­ sisted of ten members appointed by the Governor in Council and ten members elected by the Council of the University. An election of ten members of the Senate by the Council was held on 12th February, 1935. Members then elected will hold office for three years from 1st March, 1935. The remaining ten members of the Senate were appointed by the Governor in Council. The next Senate election will be held in February, 1938. The Senate elects, at its first meeting held after the first Tuesday in March of every year, two of its members to be respectively Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of the University. The present Chancellor is the Honourable Sir James William Blair, Chief Justice of Queensland; and the Vice-Chancellor, is William Nathaniel Robertson, C.M.G., C.B.E., M.B., C.M., F.R.A.C.S. PAST CHANCELLORS: 1910-1915—His Excellency Sir William Macgregor, P.C., G.C.M.G., C.B., LL.D., M.D. 1915-1922— Sir Pope Alexander Cooper, K.C.M.G., M.A., Chief Justice of Queensland. 1922-1926—His Excellency Sir Matthew Nathan, P.C., aC.M.G., LL.D. 1926-1927—The Honourable Andrew Joseph Thynne. 10 CALENDAR—UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND. PAST VICE-CHANCELLORS: 1910-1916—Reginald Heber Roe, M.A. 1916-1926—The Honourable Andrew Joseph Thynne. y Powers of Senate.—The Senate has the entire manage­ ment and control of the affairs, concerns, and property of the University, and is empowered to appoint Deans, Pro­ fessors, Lecturers, Examiners, and other officers and servants of the University. At its meeting on 22nd April, 1910, the Senate adopted the device of working through internal committees. At first tentative, this committee system was rearranged and given fixity early in 19 11. A very great deal of work and responsibility ‘falls to the Chairmen of the more important Standing Committees. Notable chairmanships during the life of the first Senate were those of Mr. J. L. Woolcock (Education) and Mr. J. D. Story (Administrative), both held for the duration of the Senate, and again of Mr. Story (Finance) from the beginning pf 1913. Statutes of the University.—The Senate has power to make, alter, and repeal Statutes with respect to the manage­ ment, good government, and discipline of the University, the course of education therein, and other matters. Such Statutes, when sealed with the Common Seal, are trans­ mitted to the Secretary for Public Instruction for the approval of the Governor in Council, and, upon being approved, are published in the Government Gazette. When so published, the Statutes have the force of law in Queens­ land. Copies of every Statute must be laid before Par­ liament; and the House may annul any Statute wholly or in part without preJudice
