Heritage
Jane Franklin Hall (Jane) was established in 1950 as Tasmania’s first women’s university residential college, offering access to university accommodation and academic support at a time when such opportunities for women were rare. The Tasmanian Council of Churches visionary leadership and support were instrumental in the College’s foundation and early development.
