Goldstein College was opened on 30 June 1964, along with the Goldstein Dining Hall which is used by all three of The Kensington Colleges. It was designed by the Government Architect, Mr E.H.Farmer, and a member of his staff, Mr Peter Hall, who later became the supervising architect of the Sydney Opera House[1]
Goldstein College was named after Philip Godfrey Goldstein (1895-1963), who had arrived in Australia in 1911 as a migrant from England. In 1959 he donated ₤40,000 (Australian) towards the construction of the Hall and College, which initially housed women and postgraduate students, and was the first college accommodation for women on campus.
Its 74 places are open to any students enrolled at the university. It comprises two buildings surrounding a grassy courtyard accessible only to residents. Three meals per day during session are provided at the nearby Goldstein Dining Hall which is shared with residents of the other Kensington Colleges - Basser and Philip Baxter.
Living alongside the 74 residents are the Dean of College and 3 Resident Fellows who provide pastoral and academic support.
