UQFL458 University of Queensland History Collection Size 17 boxes, 3 parcels Contents Reports, minutes, correspendence, plans, newspaper cuttings and other

records relating to the history of the University of Queensland, its colleges, clubs and staff association. Includes series on the planning and development of the St Lucia campus in the 1940s and 50s, the university's sporting clubs and competitions, the UQ War Memorial Committee, the Co-ordinating Committee for Overseas Students and FW Robinson's guide to the University, published in 1957.

Date range 1909 to 1979 Biography The University of Queensland was established by an act of the Queensland

parliament on 10 December 1909. The University's first home was Queensland's original Government House at Gardens Point, and when teaching started in 1911, four professors and ten other teaching staff taught 83 students (including 23 women) in three faculties: Arts, Science and Engineering. By 1926 Commerce and Agriculture had been added to the faculties and the University needed more room to grow. In 1927 Dr James Mayne and Miss Mary Emelia Mayne provided funds to acquire the St Lucia site. Construction at St Lucia began in 1937. Before the first building (the Forgan Smith Building) could be occupied in 1939, the needs of World War 2 intervened, and the St Lucia campus served as Advanced Headquarters for the Allied Land Forces in the South West Pacific. When the war ended the University’s move to the St Lucia site from Gardens Point began, and was fully completed by 1972.
