Abstract

Henry Lewis Garrett of Hobart Town was awarded the Degree of Associate of Arts, 22 September 1863. He was awarded the degree upon passing the requisite examinations in English, Latin, Greek, French and Pure Mathematics.

The Council of Education Act (1858) set up a Council with the power to confer the Degree. In 1871 the Act was amended to allow women to sit for the Associate of Arts examination. In 1875 a Bill was passed for a University Council to take the place of the Council of Education to be an examining body only with power to confer degrees. In 1890 the University took over the functions of the Tasmanian Council of Education
