The St Andrew's College Act 1998〔(SAINT ANDREW'S COLLEGE ACT 1998 )〕 replaced the St Andrews Incorporation Act 1867. This change means the Principal may be member of the laity and the religious affiliation of councillors has been broadened to include all Protestants. The College Council first met in 1870 and the first 16 students began their studies in 1874, even before the Main building was completed in 1878. Increasing demand for places led to the opening of additions to the College in 1892 (Sulman Wing), and in 1907 and 1914 (Vaucluse extensions). The student population increased to 140 in 1953 when the Reid building was completed, to 200 when the Thyne building was opened in 1966 and again to 272 when the Carillon Avenue Building was completed in 2007. The College occupies 4 hectares of land within the main campus of the University of Sydney and was built on a sub-grant of University Land. Whilst the Theological Hall of the Presbyterian Church in New South Wales, now the Presbyterian Theological Centre, was without home, St Andrew's College allowed its members to live at the College (until it relocated to Burwood in 1983). In 2001, the College Council resolved to admit female undergraduates for the first time, with the first such students taking up residence at the commencement of the 2002 academic year.〔(:: St Andrews College :: Timeline )〕 Its motto ''Christo, ecclesiae, litteris'' is Latin for ''For Christ, for the church, for scholarship''. Every year, the College men compete for a sporting trophy, commonly known as the Rawson Cup, which was presented to the Sydney University Sports Union in 1906 by Admiral Sir Harry Rawson, and is the height of male intercollegiate sport. The cup is fought for throughout the year by men representing each of the University of Sydney Colleges accumulating points by competing in cricket, rowing, swimming, rugby, tennis, soccer, basketball and athletics. St Andrew's won the Rawson Cup in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. St Andrew's has won the Rawson Cup more often than all the other colleges combined.〔()〕 Since 2002, the College women have competed for their equivalent sporting trophy, the Macrae Archdale Cup, known as “The Rosebowl”. The Rosebowl is contested by the five colleges that admit women. It consists of the sports of rowing, swimming, netball, hockey, tennis, basketball, soccer and athletics. The College won the Rosebowl for the first time in 2006, and also for the last six years 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. The College has had enviable success in the Palladian Cup, winning the annual inter-college performing arts competition in 2013, and more often than any other college since its inception in 2001. 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「St Andrew's College, University of Sydney」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
