Janet Clarke Hall (JCH) is a residential college of the University of Melbourne in Australia. The college is associated with the Anglican Province of Victoria. Founded in 1886 JCH was the first university college in Australia to admit women and admitted men in 1973. One of the smaller colleges, JCH is a residence where students live, learn, and grow alongside academics, researchers, and practitioners, developing not only discipline-specific knowledge and skills but the broad intellectual curiosity which will help them become the thought leaders and changemakers of the future.
History
Established in 1886 as a residential hostel for women students of Trinity College, JCH was originally called the 'Trinity College Hostel'. It was re-named after a significant benefactor, Janet Clarke, wife of Sir William Clarke in 1921.[1] Enid Joske was principal of JCH from 1928 until 1952 despite the uncooperation of the warden of Trinity,[2] Dr Eva Eden was principal from 1964 until 1983.[3] JCH became an independent college in 1961 and co-educational in 1973.
