The college was set up in 1964 after the consent of the La Trobe University Act by Victorian Parliament on 9 December 1964. The death of the Act of Victorian Parliament to set up La Trobe University followed before University Acts to set up the University of Melbourne (1853) and Monash University (1958).The Minister of Education at that point and the delegated arranging chamber were “consistent in their energy that the new organization ought to be creative in its approach”, and the college took on a scholarly construction dependent on schools of review (rather than on resources) and a university design, where an enormous number of understudies resided nearby. Right now, Flinders University and Macquarie University were additionally building up a schools-based framework.
Numerous conspicuous Victorians were associated with La Trobe’s foundation cycle, and there was a solid conviction that it was essential to build exploration and learning in Victoria. One of the significant people included was Davis McCaughey, who later became Governor of Victoria. The college was named after Charles Joseph La Trobe, the primary Governor of Victoria, and the college witticism, ‘whoever looks for will find’, is adjusted from Charles La Trobe’s family motto. The La Trobe University Coat of Arms consolidates the scallop shells from the La Trobe family course, the Australian wedge-followed hawk to address Australia, and branches of heath to address Victoria.
The beginnings of La Trobe can be followed back to the post-World War II time where there arose a worldwide acknowledgment of the need to build offices for higher education. In 1957 Prime Minister Sir Robert Menzies set up an exceptional advisory group to provide details regarding the fate of Australian colleges, welcoming Sir Keith Murray, Chairman of the University Grants Committee of Great Britain, to seat it. The Murray Committee, in an extensive report submitted in September 1957, suggests a significant development of college offices in Australia and changes in organization and financing.
As an immediate outcome of the vital proposals of the Murray report, the central government set up the Australian Universities Commission (AUC) in 1959, delegating Sir Leslie Martin as its chair. Menzies selected Martin to seat an extraordinary board of trustees in 1961 to answer to the AUC on the quickly expanding requests for advanced education in Australia. In August 1963 it delivered its subsequent report, which perceived the direness of Victoria’s circumstance “…the assets of Melbourne and Monash Universities are not prone to satisfy the drawn-out needs for college schooling past 1966. The Commission consequently will uphold in the 1964–1966 triennium the expansion of college offices in the Melbourne metropolitan area.” Following the proposals the central government passed the Universities Assistance Bill in October 1963, giving an award to a “third” college for intermittent use in 1965 of $106,000 and $210,000 in 1966. The primary capital award was for 1966 and added up to $1,000,000. These awards were to be matched by identical state awards.
