Kellogg College, Oxford
Kellogg College is one of the largest and most international graduate constituent colleges of the University of Oxford in England. Kellogg College is a graduate college and admissions are not open to undergraduates. The college focuses on the concept of higher, postgraduate and lifelong learning and also caters to part-time mature students. The student body now numbers 150 full-time students and 400 part-time students (Hilary term 2010).
Kellogg College, Oxford's 36th college, was founded with financial assistance from the Kellogg Foundation,[3] and became a full college of the university in 1994, Will Keith Kellogg being recognised as its effective founder.
History
The college was named in honour of W. K. Kellogg on 1 October 1994, in recognition of the generous support given by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to the university over the preceding decades. The college has close connections with the University Department for Continuing Education, the Department of Education and other departments active in areas of professional and part–time study. The college can trace its origins back to the start of university extension movement in the 1870s and came into being on 1 March 1990 (as Rewley House).
In 1878, Arthur Johnson was the first to deliver an "Oxford Extension Lecture".[4] This turned into a movement which still flourishes. The movement has culminated into the contemporary establishment and structure of Kellogg College.
The movement grew out of a drive to liberalise Oxford which gained momentum in the 1850s. As a consequence, the university slowly began to open itself to religious nonconformists and poorer men. Later this was extended to include women. It is this movement that forms the historical background of Kellogg College. The extension lectures proved very popular.
The movement is sometimes credited for taking "Oxford" to "the masses". Lectures were given in town halls, public libraries and village school rooms across the country. The aim of the extension movement was twofold: social and political. It aimed at educating the larger community to achieve a better informed democracy. It was all about citizenship.
Kellogg College was the first home for part-time students at the University of Oxford and many of the students who join the college continue to work in their professions while they study. The college continues to champion ideals of access, openness and inclusivity.
Kellogg College celebrated its "coming of age" in 2011.[5]
Buildings
In May 2004, the college acquired a site for a new permanent home, located between Banbury Road and Bradmore Road, in the Norham Manor area of North Oxford, a 10 minute walk from Wellington Square, where the college was originally co-located with the Department for Continuing Education at Oxford University. The plan is to develop the site over a number of years. The existing Victorian buildings have been renovated to provide residential accommodation, offices, and research space. The College offices moved to the Banbury Road site in April 2006.
Sporting Achievement
The Oxford rugby squad that beat Cambridge 28-10 in the 2011 varsity match consisted of no fewer than seven Kellogg students[6]. This was by far the greatest contribution to the squad from any Oxford college, with the next best-represented colleges (University, Keble and St Edmund Hall) having two players each.[7].
