It provides accommodation, academic and pastoral support for 178 undergraduate students and 20 graduate students. 15 Residential tutors are also accommodated in the College. ==History== St Hilda’s College was established as a result of the inspiration of Dr E.H. Sugden, the first Master of Queen’s College, who in 1888, at the Official Opening of Queen’s, stated: “I hope we soon have a hostel for women in these grounds”. Between 1888 and 1957 there were a number of attempts to establish a residential college to provide for the needs of the increasing numbers of young Methodist and Presbyterian women who were coming to Melbourne to undertake tertiary study. However it was not until 1957 when a provisional council was established and then 1959 when a group of church and university women began a fundraising campaign that the idea started to become a reality. Early in this successful attempt, Queen’s College donated the land on which St Hilda’s now stands, an area to the west of the Queen’s buildings then known affectionately as the “cow paddock”. This donation facilitated the development of the much discussed college - land was available, only money was now required. Mrs Marjorie Smart was invited to take up the position of Principal, and with her background in academia and the diplomatic service showed herself to be ideally suited to be the foundation principal of a fledgling college. Building commenced in September 1962, and by March 1964 the first students arrived to take up residence with over 250 students applying for the initial 87 places available. In 2014, the college celebrated its 50th Anniversary with a series of decade reunions and celebratory events, including a production of Barry Manilow's 'Copacabana'. 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 Hilda's College (University of Melbourne)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
