	Newnham College, Cambridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Newnham College is a women's college in the University of Cambridge.
		Newnham taught a varied curriculum, tailored to the students who generally had far less formal education than their male counterparts (unlike Girton which accepted women on the same terms, and taught them the same curriculum as men in the other colleges).
		Newnham College was the clear conceptual and architectural inspiration for University Women's College at the University of Melbourne, Australia (now University College).

		Cambridge is a member of the Russell Group, a network of large, research-led British universities, the Coimbra Group, an association of leading European universities, and the LERU, the League of European Research Universities.
		Cambridge's status as a University is further confirmed by a decree in 1233 from Pope Gregory IX which awarded the ius non trahi extra (a form of legal protection) to the chancellor and universitas of scholars at Cambridge.
		Cambridge has a distinctive supervision system (with a teacher-student ratio varying between one-to-one and one-to-three) for the teaching of undergraduates (typically by academic staff, and often by graduate students in the larger subjects), very similar to the tutorial system at Oxford.

	Hudson (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Hilda's mother was also a mathematician who had read mathematics at Newnham College, Cambridge, so perhaps it was not entirely surprising that William and his wife should have had children with outstanding mathematical talents who went on to study mathematics at Cambridge.
		She returned to Cambridge in 1905 when she was appointed as a lecturer at Newnham College.
		Hudson was Associate Research Fellow at Newnham College until the end of the academic year 1912-1913, but she spent this last academic year at Bryn Mawr College, a private women's college founded in 1885 in Pennsylvania in the United States.

		The classical staff was good, and not unenterprising; her performance as Antigone was still remembered by her English teacher many years later.
		It was surely he who suggested that she should concentrate on archaic Greek inscriptions, with special reference to the boustrophedon style; this, no doubt, was thought of as a pendant to R. Austin's then recent Oxford dissertation on the stoichedon style.

		Whereas Emily Davies at Girton College insisted that her students studied the same subjects as men and be expected to pass similar exams, at Newnham, Anne Clough and Henry Sidgwick devised special courses for its undergraduates.
		The venture of women's education in Cambridge was a new one: she was, I think, a little afraid of us, and did not know what we might do next.
		In the early days she was always nervous lest the students should attract attention and criticism by any eccentricity in dress or conduct, for her great desire was to be unnoticed, and to make it clear that this little colony of women was harmless and inoffensive.

	Agnes Arber
		Another early influence that combined art and botany was a well-illustrated herbal which she had the opportunity to see as a 15-year-old because her father was asked to evaluate it for sale (Muriel Arber, interview).
		Agnes Arber became associated with Newnham College, one of only two women's colleges at Cambridge [2] and used the facilities of the Balfour Lab at Newnham for her research.
		Although women could attend lectures in the university, they could not use the labs there until after World War I. In 1927, Newnham College closed the Balfour Lab and Arber, looking for research facilities, remodeled a room in her flat at 52 Huntingdon Road into a lab.
