 History of Clark Physics
In Clark's 1893 will he was explicit; he had planned a university having three components: a department of original research, a library, and a department for the "general and liberal instruction" of undergraduates and the general public.
Clark was unhappy over Hall's unwillingness to establish this third component as well as with Hall's failure to attract large numbers of tuition-paying students and financial support from the community.
Clark died in 1900; the conditions of his will forced the trustees in 1902 to establish a "collegiate department" (as it became formally known), under an independent president or lose any additional support from the Clark estate.

 Clark's family - University of Tasmania
Andrew Inglis Clark was born on 24 February 1848 in Macquarie Street, Hobart, the sixth son and eighth of the nine children of Alexander Clark and his wife Ann, the youngest daughter of John Inglis (1775-1846), a stocking maker of Kirkaldy, and his wife Ann Wyllie.
Alex Clark's subsequent career indicates that by the time he had completed this apprenticeship he would have been experienced in the techniques of the iron foundry and in the construction of windmills, watermills, and steam engines, and their application in agriculture and the manufacturing industry.
The death of Andrew Clark during the voyage and the later departure of David (Alex's elder brother) for California where he died in 1849, meant that Alex may be legitimately called the founder of the Clark family in Tasmania.
