General information
Welcome to the official Darwin College Alumni page.
Darwin College was founded in 1964 as the first College in Cambridge exclusively for graduate students, on the initiative of Trinity, St. John's, and Gonville and Caius Colleges. It is located in the very centre of town and backs on to an attractive part of the river Cam. Two small and picturesque islands, which belong to the College, give it a uniquely charming atmosphere.
The college takes its name from the family of Charles Darwin, the famous biologist, whose second son Sir George Darwin (1845-1912, from 1883 Plumian Professor of Astronomy in this University) bought Newnham Grange, now the oldest part of the College, together with the adjoining Old Granary in 1885.
Today Darwin has a community of over 700 students from over 60 countries, and over 7000 alumni from all over the world. Notable alumni include Dian Fossey, Paul Clement the US Solicitor General, Sir Ian Wilmut and the Canadian TV presenter Seamus O'Regan.
