University of Cambridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Cambridge is a collegiate university, with its main functions divided between the central departments of the university and a number of colleges. 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 University Library - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It was housed in the university's 'Old Schools' near the Senate House until it outgrew the space there and a new library in the west of Cambridge was built. As is traditional amongst British university libraries, research postgraduates and academics from other UK universities are allowed reference-only access to the library's collection, and members of the public can apply for access with an academical letter of introduction and on payment of a fee. The library is mainly used for research and reference, as the Cambridge colleges and departments have their own libraries for use by undergraduates. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cambridge_University_Library   (1150 words)

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: University of Cambridge The Cambridge University system may be defined as one which subjects all candidates for degrees, and for all university and college distinctions, to the test of competitive examinations, held at fixed intervals, and which allows the preparation and study for these examinations to be held whenever, and in whatever way, the individual thinks proper. In Cambridge, as at Oxford, the earliest colleges made use of the nearest parish church as their place of worship, and Pembroke, which dates from 1347, was the first which had from the beginning a chapel for its members within its own precincts. The general discipline of the university, for which the senate is responsible, is in the hands of the proctors, two members of their body nominated annually by the different colleges in turn. www.newadvent.org /cathen/03211a.htm   (4434 words)

Eddy Langley on Cambridge University Radio (CUR) Broadcast late in 1999, the title was in response to the rest of the world's obsession with the impending new millenium, and also an excuse to play some of the best music of the last millenium.

This is possibly the most unusual title I've ever given a radio show, and stems from my being station engineer at CUR, together with some random anecdote from the Freshers' Fair involving me chasing a student film crew with a radio mic while they chased a BBC film crew who were trying to find... www.eddylangley.net /radio/cur   (307 words)
