The Vice-Chancellor and Warden is the Chief Executive Officer of Durham University. He or she also holds the position of "Warden of the Durham Colleges" and is appointed by Council. Reporting to the Vice-Chancellor and Warden (and also members of the University Executive Committee) are the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Pro-Vice-Chancellors for Research, Education and each of the faculties (Arts and Humanities, Science, and Social Science and Health), the Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Deputy Warden of the Colleges, the Registrar (Chief Operating Officer) and the Treasurer (Chief Financial Officer).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How the University is run )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Responsibilities of Council Members )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=University Executive Committee )〕 Under the original constitution of the University, the post of Warden combined the roles of chief executive and formal head of the University. Charles Thorp was appointed acting Warden in December 1831 by Bishop William van Mildert, and in 1834 he was appointed to the position on a permanent basis by the Dean and Chapter of Durham Cathedral (who were then the governors of the University). After Thorp's death in1862, the past of Warden was held ''ex officio'' by the Dean of Durham, with the Sub-Warden (which had previously been rotated between the professors of the University) becoming a permanent post, presaging the Vice-Chancellorship. From 1909, with the creation of the federal university, and the handing over of the Dean and Chapter's responsibilities to the newly-formed Council, the executive and formal roles were officially separated into the Vice-Chancellor (executive head) and the Chancellor (formal head), with the Warden becoming the Chancellor and the Sub-Warden becoming the Vice-Chancellor. The Vice-Chancellor was elected by the Council to serve a two-year term. In 1937 the permanent posts of Warden of the Durham Colleges and Rector of King's College were created, with the Vice-Chancellorship being held by each for two years at a time. With King's College becoming Newcastle University in 1963, the Wardenship of the Durham Colleges was permanently united with the Vice-Chancellorship as the Vice-Chancellor and Warden.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Durham University Records: Central Administration and Officers )〕 The University numbers Chris Higgins as its 23rd Vice Chancellor and Warden, implying a count starting with the University's reconstitution in 1909 and continuing through the further reconstitutions in 1937 and 1963 despite the changes of title over this period. ==Wardens of Durham University== Source: Durham University Records.〔 * 1831 - 1834 Charles Thorp (acting) * 1834 - 1862 Charles Thorp * 1862 - 1869 George Waddington * 1869 - 1894 William Lake * 1894 - 1909 George William Kitchin 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「List of Vice-Chancellors and Wardens of the Durham University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
