The Bulletin  

“GERM- WARFARE CONFESSIONS”  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 74-No. 3852  

Wednesday, December 9, 1953  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.5.W.,. Australia, for Transmission by Post as Newspaper  

Seppelts  

OINCE the year 1450, in the reign of  

James 11, Glasgow has been centre  

of learning, for in that year the University  

was founded by Bishop Turnbull, its first  

principal. The classes first met in the  

crypt of the Cathedral, then in two  

other buildings until 1632, when the Old  

College was built. Enthusiasm for learn-  

ing in those early days is indicated by the  

fact that under the Rectorship of Andrew  

Hay in the sixteenth century the college  

gates were opened to students from a.m.  

in winter and from a.m. in summer!  

In 1870 the University was transferred  

from Old College in the High Street to  

the new buildings designed by Sir Gilbert  

Scott on Gilmorehill The Old College  

was demolished and some of its masonry  

was incorporated in the gatehouse of the  

new University. The magnificent Bute  

Hall, which is 110 feet long and 74 feet  

high, was the gift of the late Marquis of  

Bute, and is used for graduation pur-  

poses and other University functions. It  

is open to visitors on application to the  

porter.  

The main building, in the form of two  

quadrangles, has frontage of 525 feet.  

The whole edifice in the early Gothic  

style has 300 feet high tower which is  

prominent feature for miles around.  

The various faculties include Science,  

Medicine, Law, Engineering and  

Theology the teaching staff consists of  

fifty professors in addition to numerous  

lecturers. Today over seven thousand  

students attend this great University. It  

was here that James Watt, while working  

on model, conceived the idea of  

separate condenser for the steam engine  

which proved to be fundamental dis-  

covery. Other famous men who studied  

at Glasgow University, to mention but  

few, were Lister, Kelvin, Adam Smith  

and William Hunter.  

It was the bequest of Dr. William  

Hunter in 1783 which formed the nucleus  

of the famous Hunterian Museum which  

is part of the University. Here may be  

seen splendid examples of the work of  

Rembrandt, Reynolds, Titian and the  

world-famous picture â€œLa Recureuse” by  

Chardin. Here, also, are preserved speci-  

mens collected by Captain Cook and the  

model steam engine on which James  

Watt carried out his experiments.  

Glasgow University celebrated its fifth  

centenary in June, 1951 an occasion  

which was marked by the visit of his late  

Majesty, King George VI, and Queen  

Elizabeth.
