Administrative history

Durham has always been a collegiate university in that most of its students have also been, and now pretty well all are, members of its constituent colleges, providing them with accommodation, welfare and extra-mural activities. Initially there was only one college, University College, which came to be based in Durham Castle, the former bishop's residence, from 1837. It was joined in 1846 by Hatfield Hall, which was intended to provide a more economical experience for students by providing all meals in common at a fixed charge and by letting the rooms furnished. A Cosin's Hall lasted only from 1851 to 1864 when it was effectively absorbed by University College. Thereafter the collegiate community expanded variously and by no means consistently.
Unattached, later known as non-collegiate, students, first admitted in 1871, established themselves as a St. Cuthbert's Society in 1888 which became the recognised designation for non-collegiate students in 1947. Bede College, established independently as a diocesan teacher training college for men in 1839, took university degree students from 1892. In 1975 it was merged with its women's counterpart, St. Hild's College, which had been founded independently in 1858 and connected with the University in 1896, to become the university college of St Hild and St Bede. Two private halls, St. Chad's and St. John's, founded in 1904 and 1909 respectively, took the style and title of independent colleges within the university in 1919.
The university's first women students in Durham matriculated in 1896, all of them members of St. Hild's College. In 1899 a women's hostel was set up which, by a resolution of the Council of the Durham Colleges in 1919, became known as St. Mary's College. Women students residing at home had first been admitted in 1895 and in 1947 this body of home women students became known as St. Aidan's Society, which became St. Aidan's College in 1961. The remaining colleges, Grey (1959), Van Mildert (1966), Trevelyan (1967), Collingwood (1972), John Snow and George Stephenson (both Stockton, 2001), and Josephine Butler (2006), bear witness with the Graduate Society (1965, Ustinov College from 2002), to the post-war expansion of the university. In addition, Neville's Cross College, founded by the county council in 1921 as a teacher training college for women, became a licensed hall of residence of the university in 1924. So some of its students studied university courses until it was merged with the Durham Technical College in 1977 to become the wholly independent New College. Finally, Ushaw College, a Roman Catholic theological college established near Durham in 1808, became a licensed hall of residence of the university in 1968; whilst ASC now administers its archive, that is still held at the college.

Contents

Most of the university's historic colleges in Durham have now transferred their archives to Palace Green Library where significant collections for University, Hatfield, St John's, St Chad's, St Cuthbert's, St Aidan's, St Mary's, Van Mildert, Trevelyan and Hild Bede colleges are now held. The colleges' records reflect all aspects of the colleges' life from minutes of its governing bodies and other committees, to registers and files of its students, administrative and financial papers of its officers such as the master/principal and bursar (including covering maintenance of their buildings), also minutes, accounts, photographs and ephemera of the running of their dining halls and chapels, of their common rooms (senior, middle and junior), and of their student sports clubs and societies, with also on occasion papers of some of their senior and/or junior members, and some artefacts, principally occasional items of clothing such as ties or blazers. In addition, there are considerable collections of deeds for the properties which became the colleges of St Chad's and Hild Bede which take the history of these significant sites in the city of Durham back into the sixteenth century. The deeds for St Chad's also cover its advowsons held elsewhere, especially in Liverpool. Various items are also held for the following colleges: Collingwood, Grey, Josephine Butler, Neville's Cross, Ustinov, Stephenson and John Snow. In addition, there are files for an unrealised attempt to establish a college on the Howlands Farm site in the mid 1990s.

Accession details

University College's archive has been transferred at various times since the 1950s; almost all the rest have come in since 2002.

Previous custodial history

Always held in the colleges, except for occasional items donated by usually college alumni

Conditions of access

There is restricted access to administrative records less than 30 years old, with some further restrictions, generally as noted, on records less than 80 years old where the Data Protection Act applies.

Copyright and copying

Permission to make any published use of material from the collection must be sought in advance from the Sub-Librarian, Special Collections (e-mail PG.Library@durham.ac.uk) and, where appropriate, from the copyright owner. The Library will assist where possible with identifying copyright owners, but responsibility for ensuring copyright clearance rests with the user of the material

Appraisal

Some accessions are appraised on site before transfer, others are appraised when received at Palace Green. Clean duplicates are generally removed.

Accruals

Continuous further accruals are anticipated. In April 2004, a retention schedule and other records management procedures were developed for the university's records to facilitate the regular transfer of records from the university's departments and offices to the archive. This draft retention schedule was developed further on the appoitment of the first university records manager in August 2006.

Colleges
Reference: UND/F Durham University is a “collegiate” university. The colleges are a major part of the Durham University experience and are one of the key reasons students give for applying. Durham University's college system is arguably the most distinctive feature of the University. Colleges are small enough to foster a strong sense of community, whilst still allowing students to enjoy all the academic and other benefits of a large University. Every student at the University belongs to a college. They remain a member of their college throughout their time at Durham and beyond. The colleges are not teaching bodies, but they are more than just places to eat and sleep. Instead, each college is a small community providing a wide range of activities and facilities for study, sports, the arts, socialising, relaxation and welfare.

St John's Hall/College
Reference: UND/F4
Dates of creation: 1909-2017 St. John's College was founded in 1909 to provide an opportunity for prospective ordinands in the Church of England to receive a university education outside Oxford or Cambridge. It became a full constituent college of the university of Durham in 1923, but remains independent of it both administratively and financially. From its earliest days a small number of non-ordinands were also admitted to the student body, although the proportion of non-theologians remained very small until the 1950s. In 1958 a separate hall within College, Cranmer Hall, was formed for ministerial training. Cranmer Hall has been a recognised Anglican theological college ever since. The remaining "Junior Hall", now known as John's Hall, has grown much larger than Cranmer and admits students reading for the whole range of university degrees. St. John's College is governed by the College Council and supported by two external bodies, St. John's Society (the Alumni association) and the Senior Common Room. The college officers are responsible for the daily management of the college. They comprise the principal, the senior tutor, the bursar and the warden of Cranmer Hall.

(There was a forerunner to the foundation of Cranmer Hall in 1958. In October 1912, Cranmer Theological College was removed from Burslem in Staffordshire to Durham, being established at 45 (44 from 1913) North Bailey with Revd Hyma Henry Redgrave as principal and J.G.C. Hopper as butler. Its brief was to supply and train Protestant candidates for holy orders in the Church of England. Accommodation was provided for 24 students. However, in December 1913 Redgrave was found guilty of immoral conduct, although not guilty of adultery, and by 1915 the college had disappeared and 44 North Bailey became the Women Students' Common Room.)

Clubs, Societies and Associations
Reference: UND/F4/E
Old Johnians/St John's Society and Friends of Cranmer Hall
Reference: UND/F4/E1 A Society of members of SJH who had completed their course there was formed in 1913, “for the purpose of having an annual Reunion”. An association of Old Johnians in the dioceses of Durham and Newcastle was set up in September 1944. The St John's Society was founded in July 1979 to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the college: its purpose was to maintain contact with past members and to sustain an interest in the life and well-being of the college. The Society's officers include the president (usually the college principal), the chairman, secretary and treasurer.
