Founded in 1967, it is the first and oldest residential college at the University. The College is named after the founding Chancellor of La Trobe University, Sir Archibald Glenn. There are up to 344 students residing at Glenn College with the majority of residents being undergraduates.〔La Trobe University, 'Glenn College', ''La Trobe University'' (), (2015) ==History== The construction of Glenn College finished in early 1967 in preparation for the University's first students that would enrol in March that year. Due to the fragility of the 'college concept' that its founders espoused, Glenn College came to be the first and last college of the University that had entirely met the original intentions of the Colleges Committee.〔Roy Simpson (1989). "The Master Plan". In William J. Breen. Building La Trobe University: Reflections on the first 25 years 1964–1989. Melbourne: La Trobe University Press. p. 47.〕 In the early years, the College served as a central part of university life. The Council of the University held its first meeting on 19 December 1966 in the council room of Glenn College, where Sir Archibald Glenn, who the College had already been named after, was elected in as Chancellor.〔J.R Archibald Glenn (1989). "The Planning Phase". In William J. Breen. Building La Trobe University: Reflections on the first 25 years 1964–1989. Melbourne: La Trobe University Press. p. 27.〕 On the evening of 8 March 1967, the day on which the University was officially opened, the Council held an inaugural ball in Glenn College. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glenn College, La Trobe University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
