College of the University of Cambridge
Мюррей Эдвардс колледжі – Кембридж университетінің құрамындағы, әйелдерге арналған колледж. Ол 1954 жылы «Жаңа зал» ретінде құрылған және 2008 жылы қайта аталған. Атауы, түлек Рос Эдвардс және оның күйеуі Стив, сондай-ақ Кембридж университетінің алғашқы президенті және вице-канцлері Розмари Мюррейдің 30 миллион фунт стерлинг көлеміндегі сыйлықтарын еске салады.
Murray Edwards College is a women only constituent college of the University of Cambridge. It was founded in 1954 as New Hall and renamed in 2008. The name honours a gift of £30 million by alumna Ros Edwards and her husband Steve, and the first President and woman Vice Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, Rosemary Murray.
Тарих
Нью-Холл 1954 жылы құрылды, онда қазір Дарвин колледжі орналасқан Сильвер-стритте он алты студент тұрды. Кембридж университетінде әйел студенттердің үлесі ең төмен болды және тек екі колледж (Гиртон және Ньюнхэм) әйел студенттерді қабылдады. 1962 жылы Дарвин отбасының мүшелері өз үйін – «Жемісті бақ» аталатын үйін колледжге сыйға берді. Бұл жаңа орын Кембридж орталығынан шамамен бір шақырым қашықтықтағы Хантингдон жолында орналасқан. Архитекторлар ретінде Барбиканды (Лондон) жобалаған Чемберлин, Пауэлл және Бон таңдалды, содан кейін қаржы жинау жұмыстары басталды. Құрылыс жұмыстары 1964 жылы басталып, 1965 жылы W. & C. French компаниясы аяқтады. Жаңа колледжде 300-ге дейін студент білім ала алатын болды. 1967 жылы колледждің докторанты, университет радиоастрономия тобының зерттеушісі Джоселин Белл Бернелл алғашқы төрт пульсарды ашты, бұл оның жетекшісіне Нобель сыйлығын, ал соңында Белл Бернеллдің өзіне Оксфорд университетінде ғылыми профессор лауазымын әкелді. 1975 жылы колледж президенті Розмари Мюррей Кембридж университетінің вице-канцлері лауазымын алған алғашқы әйел болды. Кейіннен Энн Лонсдейл және Дженнифер Барнс атты екі президент университет про-вице-канцлерлері болды. 2005 жылы түлек Розалинд Эдвардс және оның күйеуі Стив Эдвардс колледждің болашағын қамтамасыз ету үшін 30 миллион фунт стерлинг көмектесті, нәтижесінде 2008 жылдың басында Нью-Холл колледжі Мюррей Эдвардс колледжі болып өзгертілді, бұл атау алғашқы президент, леди Розмари Мюррей және демеушілердің құрметіне берілді. Атау өзгертуге қарсылық болды, себебі колледж әйел студенттерге арналған болса да, жаңа атауға ер адамның тегі енгізілді. Кембриджтегі ерлер колледждері 1970-1980 жылдары аралас колледждерге айналдырылды. 2006 жылы Оксфорд университетінің соңғы әйелдер колледжі St Hilda's-тің де еркектерді қабылдайтыны туралы хабарланғаннан бері Кембридж Ұлыбританиядағы әйелдерге арналған студенттерді қабылдау саясатын ішінара сақтайтын жалғыз университет болып табылады, оны Ньюнхэм және Мюррей Эдвардс колледждері көрсетеді. Мюррей Эдвардс колледжінің профессорлық-оқытушылық құрамы барлық жыныстардан жиналады. Колледжге еркек студенттерге шектеу қойылмайды және көптеген студенттер Мюррей Эдвардстың профессорларынан білім алады.
New Hall was founded in 1954, housing sixteen students in Silver Street where Darwin College now stands. Cambridge then had the lowest proportion of women undergraduates of any university in the United Kingdom and only two other colleges (Girton and Newnham) admitted female students. In 1962, members of the Darwin family gave their home, "The Orchard", to the College. This new site was located on Huntingdon Road, about a mile from the centre of Cambridge. The architects chosen were Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, who are known for their design of the Barbican in London, and fundraising commenced. The building work began in 1964 and was completed by W. & C. French in 1965. The new college could house up to 300 students. In 1967, one of the college's PhD students, Jocelyn Bell Burnell, a researcher in the university radio astronomy group, discovered the first four pulsars, leading to a Nobel Prize for her supervisor, and, ultimately, for Bell Burnell herself, a position as a research professor at the University of Oxford. In 1975, the college's President Rosemary Murray became the first woman to hold the post of vice chancellor of the University of Cambridge. Two subsequent presidents, Anne Lonsdale and Jennifer Barnes, have become pro vice chancellors of the University. Following a 2005 donation of £30 million by alumna Rosalind Edwards and her husband Steve Edwards to secure its future, in early 2008 New Hall was renamed Murray Edwards College, honouring the first President, Dame Rosemary Murray, and the benefactors. There was some opposition to this as the new name incorporated a man's surname, despite the college being reserved for women students. Men only Cambridge colleges were converted into mixed sex colleges in the 1970s and 1980s. Since the 2006 announcement that the University of Oxford's last remaining women only college, St Hilda's, would also admit men, Cambridge is the only United Kingdom university that partially maintains a female only student admissions policy, represented by Newnham and Murray Edwards. The fellowship and staff at Murray Edwards College are recruited from all genders. There is no bar to male students frequenting the college and many are taught there by Murray Edwards' fellows.

Кембридждегі басқа колледждер сияқты Мюррей Эдвардс колледжі де бірден салынбаған, қажеттілік туындаған сайын бірнеше кезеңде кеңейтілген. Сондықтан колледж әртүрлі стильдегі бірнеше тұрғын үй блогынан тұрады. Құрылыс ретімен:
Like many of the other Cambridge colleges, Murray Edwards College was not built all at one time but expanded as the need arose, over several time periods. The college therefore has several accommodation blocks of differing styles. In order of construction:
Orchard Court (also known as Old Block) recalls the name of the grounds now occupied by the college, which was The Orchard, a large house part owned by Norah Barlow, granddaughter of Charles Darwin. It is divided into the Wolfson, Nuffield and Spooner Wings, named after donors to New Hall during its first few decades. Part of the original structure was designed in the 1960s and completed in 1965. In 2009, part of this block was refurbished to improve fire safety and living standards. Some student rooms are split across two levels, meaning they have a bedroom upstairs and a separate living space downstairs. Many of the rooms have access to a shared balcony. Pearl House (formerly known as New Block), named after Valerie Pearl, the second president of the college. The building was constructed with funding from the Kaetsu Foundation. All rooms are en suite. Wheelchair access is available to each floor via the central lift. Opened in 1994, this is where first year undergraduates are accommodated. Unlike most colleges at Cambridge, the building offers fully equipped kitchens, baths and a lift. Buckingham House. The current building was a replacement for another building of the same name that stood on this site, and was opened in 2001. All rooms are en suite. The building is wheelchair accessible and has a lift. Contains a 142 seat auditorium which is used for lectures, film festivals and concerts. Canning and Eliza Fok House is named after the Hong Kong entrepreneur Canning Fok and his wife Eliza Fok, who donated the funds for constructing this accommodation block. All rooms are en suite. The building is wheelchair accessible and has a lift. Opened in 2008. Canning and Eliza Fok House is specifically built to accommodate the growing population of graduate students at Murray Edwards, and has a large shared kitchen/living area between 8 bedrooms. The first buildings of the college on Huntingdon Road were designed by the architects, Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, and are listed Grade II* (particularly important buildings of more than special interest). This includes:
The Dome, which features some of the artwork the college is famed for, as well as a rising servery (a bar that rises from the floor for special events). This is where the cafeteria is located. Students take their meals here, including Saturday and Sunday brunch, often cited as the best brunch in Cambridge. Formals are held here, once a week on a Tuesday. Fountain Court, which can be accessed from the bar and looks into the library, and features an illuminated fountain and waterways. Tables and chairs are put out there in warmer months as well as displays of flowers. The Library, which was designed to reflect the interior of a Cathedral. Students can request heaters, blankets, tea, coffee and biscuits as they study. Yoga sessions, arts and craft and a variety of other welfare events are held here and it is open 24/7.

Орчард Корт (сонымен қатар Олд Блок деп те аталады) қазіргі колледж орналасқан жердің атын еске салады – The Orchard, Чарльз Дарвиннің немересі Нора Барлоуға тиесілі үлкен үйдің бір бөлігі. Ол Вулфсон, Нуффилд және Спунер қанаттарына бөлінген, олар Нью-Холлға көмек көрсеткен демеушілердің құрметіне аталған. Бұл құрылыстың бір бөлігі 1960 жылдары жобаланып, 1965 жылы аяқталды. 2009 жылы өрт қауіпсіздігі мен тұру жағдайларын жақсарту мақсатында блоктың бір бөлігі қайта жөнделді. Кейбір студенттік бөлмелер екі деңгейлі, яғни жоғарғы қабатта жатын бөлмесі, ал төменгі қабатта жеке тұрғын бөлмесі бар. Көптеген бөлмелерге ортақ балконға қол жеткізуге болады.

It is divided into the Wolfson, Nuffield and Spooner Wings, named after donors to New Hall during its first few decades. Part of the original structure was designed in the 1960s and completed in 1965. In 2009, part of this block was refurbished to improve fire safety and living standards. Some student rooms are split across two levels, meaning they have a bedroom upstairs and a separate living space downstairs. Many of the rooms have access to a shared balcony. Pearl House (formerly known as New Block), named after Valerie Pearl, the second president of the college. The building was constructed with funding from the Kaetsu Foundation. All rooms are en suite. Wheelchair access is available to each floor via the central lift. Opened in 1994, this is where first year undergraduates are accommodated. Unlike most colleges at Cambridge, the building offers fully equipped kitchens, baths and a lift. Buckingham House. The current building was a replacement for another building of the same name that stood on this site, and was opened in 2001. All rooms are en suite. The building is wheelchair accessible and has a lift. Contains a 142 seat auditorium which is used for lectures, film festivals and concerts. Canning and Eliza Fok House is named after the Hong Kong entrepreneur Canning Fok and his wife Eliza Fok, who donated the funds for constructing this accommodation block. All rooms are en suite. The building is wheelchair accessible and has a lift. Opened in 2008. Canning and Eliza Fok House is specifically built to accommodate the growing population of graduate students at Murray Edwards, and has a large shared kitchen/living area between 8 bedrooms. The first buildings of the college on Huntingdon Road were designed by the architects, Chamberlin, Powell and Bon, and are listed Grade II* (particularly important buildings of more than special interest). This includes:
The Dome, which features some of the artwork the college is famed for, as well as a rising servery (a bar that rises from the floor for special events). This is where the cafeteria is located. Students take their meals here, including Saturday and Sunday brunch, often cited as the best brunch in Cambridge. Formals are held here, once a week on a Tuesday. Fountain Court, which can be accessed from the bar and looks into the library, and features an illuminated fountain and waterways. Tables and chairs are put out there in warmer months as well as displays of flowers. The Library, which was designed to reflect the interior of a Cathedral. Students can request heaters, blankets, tea, coffee and biscuits as they study. Yoga sessions, arts and craft and a variety of other welfare events are held here and it is open 24/7.

Бау-бақшалар
Колледждің бақшалары бейресми стильде жасалған, бастапқыда оны алғашқы президент Розмари Мюррей жоспарлаған және отырғызған. Бақшаға Дарвин отбасының меншігіне тиесілі болған жылыжай да кіреді, онда қыс айларында банандар өсіріледі. 2007 жылы Мюррей Эдвардс колледжі (бұрынғы Нью-Холл) Кембридж колледждері арасында алғаш рет RHS Челси гүл шоуына қатысты. Ұсынылған бақтың тақырыбы Венераның транзиті болды және ол Chic Garden санатында қола флора медалімен марапатталды. Шоудан кейін бұл бақ кітапхананың жанында сәл үлкендеу етіп қайта құрылды. Кембридждің мамыр аптасының дәстүріне сәйкес, колледж жыл сайын университет студенттері арасында танымал бақша кешін өткізеді. Бақша кешінде әр жыл сайын жаңа тақырып ұсынылады және оған қатысушылар оны жақсы қарсы алады. Майклмас (күзгі/қысқы семестр) кезінде колледж бақшада "Алма күнін" тойлайды, онда алма жинау, тамақ дайындау, қолөнер жасау және от жағу сияқты күзгі шаралар ұйымдастырылады. Мюррей Эдвардс студенттері бақшаны тамашалауға және газонмен жүруге ынталандырылады, сондықтан студенттерді күнге жатқан, оқыған, пикникке барган немесе тіпті жазда орнатылған шағын жағажайда демалып жүргенін көру осы колледжде жиі кездеседі. Бақшаға кәсіби қызметкерлер, соңғы кезде стипендиаттар мен студенттер де қарап күтім жасайды. 2012 жылдан бері стипендиаттарға, бакалаврларға және магистранттарға бақша участалары берілді, олар бағбандардың отырғызған гүлдері мен шөптеріне қоса, шөптер мен көкөністер өсіруге мүмкіндік алады.
The college gardens have an informal style, initially planned and planted by the first president, Dame Rosemary Murray. The gardens include a greenhouse originally belonging to the estate of the Darwin family, where banana plants are grown during the winter months. In 2007, Murray Edwards College (then New Hall) became the first Cambridge College to participate in the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. The theme of the presented garden was the Transit of Venus, and was awarded a Bronze Flora medal in the Chic Garden Category. After the show, this garden was recreated in a slightly larger form beside the library. As part of the Cambridge tradition of May Week, the college hosts an annual garden party that is popular with students from across the university. The garden party features a new theme each year and is well received by those in attendance. In Michaelmas (the Autumn/ Winter term), the college celebrates 'Apple Day' in the gardens, a day of autumnal activities such as apple picking, cooking, crafting and bonfires. The students at Murray Edwards are encouraged to enjoy the gardens and walk on the lawns, meaning it is common to spot students sunbathing, studying, taking picnics or even relaxing on the small beach that is erected in the Summer. The gardens are maintained by professional staff, and recently also by fellows and students.
