The Bulletin  

DIGGERS IN DAN MAP TORRENT-mgezt  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 77—No. 3976  

Wednesday, April 25, 1956  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

THE SENATE HOUSE,  

FOCAL POINT OF LIFE AT  

CAMBRIDGE  

DURING its long history, covering  

period of seven centuries, Cam-  

bridge University has had considerable  

influence in the moulding of English  

life. In its many halls, libraries and  

chapels are commemorated such dis-  

tinguished men of science as Darwin,  

Newton, Ray, Thomson and Ruther-  

ford philosophers such as Bacon, Smuts,  

and Russell; poets like Wordsworth,  

A. E. Housman, Dryden, Milton, Gray,  

Rupert Brooke, Byron and Tennyson;  

such historians as Macaulay, Acton and  

the Trevelyans. The University produced  

great Prime Minister in Pitt the Younger;  

John Harvard, who founded and gave his  

name to the great American university;  

while Cromwell, Pepys, Sir Francis  

Drake, Horace Walpole are among  

many others who are commemorated at  

Cambridge.  

Those who have studied at the Uni-  

versity since the year 1730 have known  

the Senate House, illustrated here, for it  

is in this imposing building that exami-  

nations are held and degrees bestowed.  

Like the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford  

it is also the scene of the chief public  

functions of the University. The archi-  

tect was James Gibbs and building  

began in 1722 it was completed eight  

years later. The Senate House con-  

tains some beautiful plaster work and  

woodwork in addition to statues of  

William Pitt by Nollekens and of  

Charles, Duke of Somerset, Chancellor  

of the University from 1689 to 1748, by  

Rysbrack.  

Cambridge was the first university in  

England to admit women to its studies,  

and today two world-famous colleges for  

the higher education of women students  

are situated there —Girton College,  

opened at Hitchin in 1869 and moved to  

Cambridge in 1873; and Newnham  

College, opened in 1875.  

No. 295: the Homeland Series by the House of Seppelt.
