St Mark's College, Adelaide

Founded in 1925 as the first university residential college in Adelaide, St Mark's College continues to provide a supportive and stimulating environment where students pursue their optimum academic achievement. Whilst pursuing excellence in specific fields of study at university, the College also promotes amongst its members a love of learning and a critical approach to issues. The primary aims of collegiate life at St Mark's are to help engender in College members a strong sense of the responsibilities and rights of individuals living in a community with others, and to instil in them an equally strong sense of commitment to the common good of our community. The College encourages its members to participate in the cultural, spiritual, social and sporting events arranged by the student leaders and values the contributions members make to the life of the College through that participation. By providing an atmosphere in which students are accepted as mature and self-responsible, St Mark's aims to make a student's stay at college an enjoyable, intellectual and enriching experience.
