Brackets
A bracket is either of two tall fore- or back-facing punctuation marks commonly used to isolate a segment of text or data from its surroundings. Typically deployed in symmetric pairs, an individual bracket may be identified as a 'left' or 'right' bracket or, alternatively, an "opening bracket" or "closing bracket", respectively, depending on the Writing system#Directionality, directionality of the context. Specific forms of the mark include parentheses (also called "rounded brackets"), square brackets, curly brackets (also called 'braces'), and angle brackets (also called 'chevrons'), as well as various less common pairs of symbols.

Clergy Training College, Goulburn
The Clergy Training College (also known as the Goulburn Diocesan College) was a short-lived Australian educational institution in Goulburn, New South Wales, established in 1906. It trained candidates for ordination in the Anglican Church of Australia (which, at the time, was called the Church of England in Australia). The Rt Rev Christopher Barlow (1858-1915) was Bishop of Goulburn from 1902 to 1915. Barlow was strongly opposed to 'party', and considered that the needs of a bush diocese required a broad theological training. It was also the era of many of the Australian dioceses establishing their own theological colleges. In 1906 Barlow established the Clergy Training College. The first Warden was the Rev Wentworth Wentworth-Sheilds, formerly the Archdeacon of Wagga. Barlow and Wentworth-Sheilds were cousins. By 1907 there were seven students, with a further 10 accepted for admission. Those seven were in a rented house, but Barlow's intention was to erect a permanent buil ...
