550 members from October 1972. There was a lot of talkabout this when I was at Cambridge University. I was amember of Fitzwilliam College with 540 members and nowomen at that time, as well as to Wesley House which hadboth men and women students.<strong>THE</strong>N AND NOWI would like to refer to a couple of happenings atCambridge from the time I studied at the TheologicalColleges at the University with M.A. Degree privilegeduring 1972-73. It was illegal to walk on the grass at theUniversity unless you had a M.A.-degree. In one of theCollege gardens some women students had put up a tent inthe middle of the garden in protest against the fact that theCollege had not opened its gates for women. The wardensremoved the tent quickly and ordered the women to leavethe garden.At every College there was a gathering everymonth for professors, dons and students called “HighTable”.It was at such a dinner at Trinity College, thatsome women students stormed into the dining Hall todemonstrate. There were some commotion, and the guestsat the table turned round and asked what was going on.“Nothing”, was the answer and the dinner party continuedin the regular manner.10
<strong>WOMEN</strong>´ S COLLEGESI would like to mention as a matter of form thatCambridge University has its own women´ s Colleges. Imention Girton College which was founded 1869, and has495 women students. Here they did not permit any malestudents 1972, however, the first male Dons were allowed.Newnham College was founded 1871 and had 377women students, when I visited Cambridge Univeersity.The Dean at Newnham, Miss Cohen, said in a discussionthat they would not permit male students at the College,because that would make the women students lose theirindependence as men should take over all activities of atechnical nature.Homerton College is a Teachers University forwomen. The School was founded in London 1850, butmoved to Cambridge 1894, and it has 630 students.Wesley House has both men and womenTheological students. This is also the case at WestminsterCollege that was founded in London 1844. The Collegemoved to Cambridge 1899. Westminster College isPresbyterian while Wesley House is Methodist. I shouldmention that several Colleges have opened their doors for asmall number of women students at Cambridge. This wasthe case with Clare College who among their 330 studentsreceived 30 women from October 1972. This College wasfounded 1326. Kings College from 1441 with 450 studentsallowed 30 women into its student body from October1972. New Hall opened 1954 as the third Institution forwomen with 250 students, but the main part of Colleges at11
