The Hottest Ticket in Town, 1946 By Donald P. Lofe, Jr. President and Chief Transformation Officer and Churchill Fellow, Westminster CollegeDirector, International Churchill Societ...
Churchill had always cared passionately about the future of his country and believed strongly in the importance of education and research in securing success in the years ahead. Aware of the particular need for scientific and technological know-how in Britain, in 1958 he launched a fund to establish a British college devoted to scientific research and training. The result was ultimately a new college at the University of Cambridge, named after him. Churchill College received its Royal Charter in 1960, is the national and Commonwealth memorial to Churchill and has been a thriving college of the University of Cambridge ever since.
