Activity history

It does not appear that there was a formal procedure for handling complaints by students. The handling of such complaints was presumably the responsibility initially of the appropriate professor or lecturer. Complaints about academic matters were referred to the Board of Studies (renamed Academic Board in 1963) and from there to the Teaching and Staff Committee until 1904 when the Committee was discharged. Serious complaints about any matter were presumably referred to the Board of Governors.
