Duel in Battersea Fields, 21 March 1829
The result was a duel in Battersea Fields on 21 March 1829. Winchilsea did not fire, a plan he and his second almost certainly decided upon before the duel; Wellington took aim and fired wide to the right. Accounts differ as to whether Wellington missed on purpose. Wellington, noted for his poor aim, claimed he did, other reports more sympathetic to Winchilsea claimed he had aimed to kill. Honour was saved and Winchilsea wrote Wellington an apology. "Duel Day" is still celebrated on the first Thursday after 21 March every year, marked by various events throughout the College, including reenactments.
19th century
King's opened in October 1831 with William Otter, a clergyman, appointed as first Principal and lecturer in divinity. Despite the intentions of its founders and the chapel at the heart of its buildings, the initial prospectus permitted, "nonconformists of all sorts to enter the college freely". William Howley, the Archbishop of Canterbury, presided over the opening ceremony in which a sermon was given in the chapel by Charles Blomfield, the Bishop of London, on the subject of combining religious instruction with intellectual culture. The governors and the professors, except the linguists, had to be members of the Church of England but the students did not, though attendance at Chapel was compulsory.
The college was divided into a senior department and a junior department, also known as King's College School, which was originally situated in the basement of the Strand Campus. The Junior department started with 85 pupils and only three teachers, but quickly grew to 500 by 1841, outgrowing its facilities and leading it to relocate to Wimbledon in 1897 where it remains today, though it is no longer associated with the College. Within the Senior department teaching was divided into three courses. A general course comprised divinity, classical languages, mathematics, English literature and history. Secondly, there was the medical course. Thirdly, miscellaneous subjects, such as law, political economy and modern languages, which were not related to any systematic course of study at the time and depended for their continuance on the supply of occasional students. In 1833 the general course was reorganised leading to the award of the Associate of King's College (A.K.C.), the first qualification issued by King's. The course, which concerns questions of ethics and theology, is still awarded today to students and staff who take an optional three-year course alongside their studies.
The river frontage was completed in April 1835 at a cost of £7,100, its completion a condition of the College securing the site from the Crown. Unlike those in the school, student numbers in the Senior department remained almost stationary during the first five years of the College's existence. During this time the medical school was blighted by inefficiency and the divided loyalties of the staff leading to a steady decline in attendance. One of the most important appointments was that of Charles Wheatstone as professor of Experimental Philosophy.
At this time, neither King's, nor "London University", had the ability to confer degrees, a particular problem for medical students who wished to practise. Amending this situation was aided by the appointment of Henry Brougham as Lord Chancellor, who was chairman of the governors of "London University". In this position he automatically became a governor of King's. In the understanding that the government was unlikely to grant degree-awarding powers on two institutions in London, negotiations led to the colleges federating as the "University of London" in 1836, "London University" thus becoming University College. The governors at King's were offended at the exclusion of divinity from the syllabus by the federal university which was founded as an examining body and advised students to take the Oxford or Cambridge examinations, however, the power of the university to confer degrees marked a period of limited expansion at the college.
In 1840 the college opened King's College Hospital on Portugal Street near Lincoln's Inn Fields, an area composed of overcrowded rookeries characterised by poverty and disease. The governance of the hospital was later transferred to the corporation of the hospital established by the King's College Hospital Act 1851, and eventually moved to new premises in Denmark Hill, Camberwell in 1913. The appointment in 1877 of Joseph Lister as professor of clinical surgery greatly benefited the medical school, and the introduction of Lister's antiseptic surgical methods gained the hospital an international reputation. In 1855 the College pioneered evening classes in London. In 1882 the King's College London Act amended the constitution, the objects of the College extended to include the education of women.
20th century
See also Contribution of King's College London to the discovery of the structure of DNA and Photo 51 The King's College, London Act 1903, abolished all remaining religious tests for staff, except within the Theological department. The end of the World War I saw an influx of students, which strained existing facilities to the point where some classes were held in the Principal's house. A government proposal to relocate the College premises to Bloomsbury was considered, but finally rejected in 1925. During the Second World War most students and staff were evacuated out of London to Bristol and Glasgow. The College buildings were used by the Auxiliary Fire Service with a number of College staff, mainly those then known as College servants, serving as firewatchers. Parts of the Strand building, the quadrangle, and the roof of apse and stained glass windows of the chapel suffered bomb damage in the Blitz. During reconstruction, the vaults beneath the quadrangle were replaced by a two-storey laboratory, which opened in 1952, for the departments of Physics and Civil and Electrical Engineering.
One of the most famous pieces of scientific research performed at King's were the crucial contributions to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA in 1953 by Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin, together with Raymond Gosling, Alex Stokes, Herbert Wilson and other colleagues at the Randall Division of Cell and Molecular Biophysics at King's.
Major reconstruction of the College began in 1966 following the publication of the Robbins Report on Higher Education. A new block facing the Strand designed by E. D. Jefferiss Mathews was opened in 1972. The College underwent several mergers with other institutions, including Queen Elizabeth College and Chelsea College of Science and Technology in 1985, the Institute of Psychiatry in 1997, and the United Medical and Dental Schools of Guy's and St Thomas' Hospitals were reincorporated in 1998 after becoming independent of the College at the foundation of the National Health Service in 1948. In 1998 Florence Nightingale's original training school for nurses merged with the King's Department of Nursing Studies as the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery. The same year the College acquired the former Public Record Office building on Chancery Lane and converted it at a cost of £35 million into the Maughan Library, which opened in 2002.
2001 to present
In July 2006, the College was granted degree-awarding powers in its own right, as opposed to through the University of London, by the Privy Council. This power remained unexercised until 2007, when the College announced that all students starting courses from September 2007 onwards would be awarded degrees conferred by King's itself, rather than by the University of London. The new certificates however still make reference to the fact that King's is a constituent college of the University of London. All current students with at least one year of study remaining were in August 2007 offered the option of choosing to be awarded a University of London degree or a King's degree. The first King's degrees were awarded in summer 2008.
In 2007, for the second consecutive year, students from the School of Law won the national round of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition. The Jessup moot is the largest international mooting competition in the world. The King's team went on to represent the UK as national champions.

2001 to present
In June 2014, King's announced plans for large-scale redundancies, potentially affecting up to 15% of staff in biomedical sciences and at the Institute of Psychiatry. Commentators noted that many senior academics as well as students were highly critical of the plans, on the grounds that they were being rushed through without adequate consultation, threatened to leave students without adequate teaching staff, and would weaken the research capacity and damage the reputation of the university. A spokesperson for King's argued that the numbers of planned redundancies were fewer than critics claimed, but in so doing came in for further criticism, because staff had not been told of this information. It was subsequently noted that the redundancy plan also went against explicit advice in a commissioned report on the university's finances. Around the same time as these developments, an article in the Times Higher Education noted that, in an apparently unrelated development, King's was contesting a freedom of information request for details of salaries of its top professors.
In October 2014, Ed Byrne replaced Rick Trainor as Principal of King's, the latter having served for 10 years.

King's College London
Strand Campus
Marble statues of Sappho and Sophocles were bequeathed by Frida Mond in 1923, a friend of Israel Gollancz, Professor of English Language and Literature at King's. They were placed in the lobby of the King's Building, where they have remained ever since. The nearest underground station is Temple, on the District and Circle lines.
Chapel
The original college chapel was designed by Sir Robert Smirke and was completed in 1831 as part of the College building (later known as the King's building). Given the foundation of the university in the tradition of the Church of England the chapel was intended to be an integral part of the campus. This is reflected in its central location within the King's Building on the first floor above the Great Hall, accessible via a grand double staircase from the foyer. The original chapel was described as a low and broad room "fitted to the ecclesiological notions of George IV's reign." However, by the mid nineteenth century its style had fallen out of fashion and in 1859 a proposal by the College Chaplain Reverend E. H. Plumptre that the original chapel should be reconstructed was approved by the College Council, who agreed that its "meagreness and poverty" made it unworthy of King's.
The College approached Sir George Gilbert Scott to make proposals. In his proposal of 22 December 1859 he suggested that, "There can be no doubt that, in a classic building, the best mode of giving ecclesiastical character is the adoption of the form and, in some degree, the character of an ancient basilica." His proposals for a chapel modelled on the lines of an classical basilica were accepted and the reconstruction was completed in 1864 at a cost of just over £7,000.
Somerset House East Wing
In December 2009, the College signed a 78-year lease to the East Wing of Somerset House. It has been described as one of the longest-ever property negotiations, taking over 180 years to complete. Since the College was built it has been in various discussions to expand into one of the wings of Somerset House itself, however, the relationship between the College and HM Revenue and Customs that occupied the East Wing were sometimes difficult. Sir Robert Smirke's design of King's was sympathetic to that of Somerset House which is situated adjacent to the Strand Campus. Indeed, a condition of the College acquiring the site in the 1820s was that it should be erected "on a plan which would complete the river front of Somerset House at its eastern extremity in accordance with the original design of Sir William Chambers" which had for so long offended "every eye of taste for its incomplete appearance".
In 1875, a dispute arose when new windows were added to the façade overlooking the College. Following a complaint by the College Council at the loss of privacy, the response of the Metropolitan Board of Works was that "the terms under which the college is held are not such as to enable the Council to restrict Her Majesty from opening windows in Somerset House whenever she may think proper". By the end of World War I the College began to outgrow its premises which led to rekindled efforts to acquire the East Wing. There was even a suggestion that the College should be relocated to new premises in Bloomsbury to alleviate space concerns, however, these plans never came to fruition. Instead, a new top floor was added to the King's Building to house the Anatomy Department and other buildings along Surrey Street were purchased.
Following the publication of the Robbins Report on Higher Education in 1963 a further attempt was made to acquire the East Wing. The Report recommended a large expansion in student numbers accommodated by a new building programme. The "quadrilateral plan" was to create a campus stretching from Norfolk Street in the east to Waterloo Bridge Road in the west. Plans were also drawn up for modern high-rise buildings along the Strand and Surrey Street to house a new library and laboratories. A contemporary report stated that the redevelopment would provide "London with a university precinct on the Strand of which the capital could be proud". The plans were revisited in the early 1970s by the then Principal, Sir John Hackett, however, progress was prevented by funding problems and the unwillingness of the Government to re-house its civil servants. In 1971 the Evening Standard led a public campaign for Somerset House to be transformed into a new public arts venue for London. Proposals were also aired for the relocation of the Tate Gallery to the site. In the 1990s the eventual vacation by government departments and a comprehensive restoration programme saw the opening of the Courtauld Gallery, the Gilbert and Hermitage collections and the Edmond J. Safra Fountain Court.
In early 2010 a £25 million renovation of the East Wing was undertaken and took 18 months to complete. On 29 February 2012, Queen Elizabeth II officially opened the building. It is home to the School of Law, a public exhibition space called the Inigo Rooms curated by the King's Cultural Institute as well as adding a further entrance to the Strand Campus.
Strand Lane 'Roman bath'
Moreover Aldwych tube station, a well-preserved but disused London Underground station, is integrated as part of the campus. A rifle range used by the College is located on the site of one of the platforms since the closure of the station in 1994.
The nearest Underground stations are Temple, Charing Cross and Covent Garden.
Guy's Campus
Guy's Campus is situated close to London Bridge and the Shard on the South Bank of the Thames and is home to the School of Biomedical Sciences (also at the Waterloo Campus), the Dental Institute, and the School of Medicine.
Thomas Guy, the founder and benefactor of Guy's Hospital established in 1726 in the London Borough of Southwark, was a wealthy bookseller and also a governor of the nearby St Thomas' Hospital. He lies buried in the vault beneath the eighteenth-century chapel at Guy's. Silk-merchant William Hunt was a later benefactor who gave money in the early nineteenth century to build Hunt's House. Today this is the site of New Hunt's House. The Henriette Raphael building, constructed in 1903, and the Gordon Museum are also located here. In addition, the Hodgkin building, Shepherd's House and Guy's chapel are prominent buildings within the campus. The Students' Union centre at Guy's is situated in Boland House.
The nearest Underground stations are London Bridge and Borough.
Waterloo Campus
The Waterloo Campus is located across Waterloo Bridge from the Strand Campus, near the South Bank Centre in the London Borough of Lambeth and consists of the James Clerk Maxwell Building and the Franklin–Wilkins Building.
Cornwall House, now the Franklin-Wilkins Building, constructed between 1912 and 1915 was originally the His Majesty's Stationery Office (responsible for Crown copyright and National Archives), but was requisitioned for use as a military hospital in 1915 during World War I. It became the King George Military Hospital, and accommodated about 1,800 patients on 63 wards. The College acquired the building in the 1980s and today it is home to the School of Biomedical Sciences (also at the Guy's Campus), parts of the School of Social Science & Public Policy (also at the Strand Campus), Diabetes and Nutritional Sciences Division (part of the School of Medicine) and LonDEC (London Dental Education Centre), part of the Dental Institute (also at Guy's and Denmark Hill). The building, one of London's largest university buildings, underwent refurbishment and was reopened in 2000. The building is named after Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins for their major contributions to the discovery of the structure of DNA.
The James Clerk Maxwell Building houses the Principal's Office, most of the central administrative offices of the College and part of the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing & Midwifery.
The nearest Underground station is Waterloo.
St Thomas' Campus
The St Thomas' Campus in the London Borough of Lambeth, facing the Houses of Parliament across the Thames, houses parts of the School of Medicine and the Dental Institute. The Florence Nightingale Museum is also located here. St Thomas' Hospital became part of King's College London School of Medicine in 1998. The Department of Twin Research (TwinsUk), King's College London is located in St. Thomas' Hospital.
The nearest Underground station is Westminster.
Denmark Hill Campus
Denmark Hill Campus is situated in south London near the borders of the London Borough of Lambeth and the London Borough of Southwark in Camberwell and is the only campus not situated on the River Thames. The campus consists of King's College Hospital, the Maudsley Hospital and the Institute of Psychiatry (IoP). In addition to the Institute of Psychiatry, parts of the Dental Institute and School of Medicine, and a large hall of residence, King's College Hall, are situated here. Other buildings include the campus library known as the Weston Education Centre (WEC), the James Black Centre, the Rayne Institute (haemato-oncology) and the Cicely Saunders Institute (palliative care).
The nearest Overground station is Denmark Hill.
Redevelopment programme
The Strand Campus redevelopment won the Green Gown Award in 2007 for sustainable construction. The award recognised the "reduced energy and carbon emissions from a sustainable refurbishment of the historic South Range of the King's Building". King's was also the recipient of the 2003 City Heritage Award for the conversion of the Grade II* listed Maughan Library.
Current projects include a £45 million development for the Maurice Wohl Clinical Neuroscience Institute, £18 million on modernising the College's learning and teaching environments, a sports pavilion at Honor Oak Park. In April 2012 a £20 million redevelopment of the Strand Campus Quad was announced and will provide an additional 3,700 square metres of teaching space and student facilities.
Governance
The College's formal head is the Principal and President, currently held by Ed Byrne. The office is established by the Charter of the College as "the chief academic and administrative officer of the College" and the College Statutes require the Principal to have the general responsibility to the Council for "ensuring that the objects of the College are fulfilled and for maintaining and promoting the efficiency, discipline and good order of the College". The Charter and Statutes granted in 2009 created the additional title of President. As such the full title of the head of the College is the Principal and President. Senior officers are called the Principal's Central Team. Six Vice-Principals have specific responsibilities for Education; Research and Innovation; Strategy and Development; Arts and Sciences; International (developing the College's global research networks); and Health (where there is also a Deputy Vice-Principal).
The Council is the supreme governing body of the College established under the Charter and Statutes, comprising 21 members. Its membership include the President of KCLSU (as the student member), the Principal and President, up to seven other staff members, and up to 12 lay members who must not be employees of the College. It is supported by a number of standing committees. The current Chairman of the Council is Charles Wellesley, 9th Duke of Wellington.
The Dean of King's College is an ordained person, which is unusual among British universities. The Dean is "responsible for overseeing the spiritual development and welfare of all students and staff". The Office of the Dean co-ordinate the Associateship of King's College programme, the Chaplaincy and the Chapel Choir, which includes 25 Choir scholarships. One of the Dean's roles is to encourage and foster vocations to the Church of England priesthood.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is the College Visitor by right of office owing to the role of the Church of England in the College's foundation.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Kebudayaan Maghribi merupakan gabungan budaya Arab, Amazigh, Yahudi, Afrika, dan Eropah Barat. Ia mewakili dan dibentuk oleh penumpuan pengaruh sepanjang sejarah. Sfera ini mungkin termasuk, antara lain, bidang tingkah laku peribadi atau kolektif, bahasa, adat resam, pengetahuan, kepercayaan, seni, perundangan, gastronomi, muzik, puisi, seni bina, dsb. ... Walaupun Maghribi mula menjadi majoriti Sunni Muslim bermula dari abad ke-9–10 Masihi, dalam zaman empayar Al-Murabitun, populasi Yahudi lama yang sangat ketara telah menyumbang kepada pembentukan kebudayaan Maghribi. Pada zaman dahulu, bermula dari abad kedua M dan sehingga ketujuh, Kristian Donatis luar bandar hadir, di sepanjang agama Katolik Rom yang masih dalam pembuatan di bandar. Semua strata super budaya cenderung bergantung pada substratum Barbar orang asli berbilang milenium yang masih wujud dan wujud sejak zaman prasejarah.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Landskap linguistik Maghribi adalah kompleks. Ia secara amnya cenderung kepelbagaian mendatar dan berstrata menegak. Walaupun mungkin untuk mengklasifikasikannya secara meluas kepada dua komponen utama: Arab dan Berber. Tidak mustahil untuk membuat spekulasi tentang asal usul bahasa Barbar kerana ia dikesan kembali ke zaman purba dan prasejarah yang rendah. Pengaruh Semitik, sebaliknya, boleh didokumentasikan dengan adil oleh bukti arkeologi. Ia datang dalam dua gelombang: Kanaan, dalam jenis bersejarah Punic, Carthaginian dan Hebrew, dari abad kesembilan B.C dan sehingga zaman purba tinggi, dan Arab, semasa Zaman Pertengahan rendah, bermula dari abad ketujuh A.D. Kedua-dua bahasa Semitik itu rapat, dalam sintaks dan perbendaharaan kata, sukar untuk membezakannya tentang siapa yang lebih mempengaruhi struktur dialek Arab Maghribi moden. Penakluk Arab sudah pasti bertemu dengan penduduk Punic bandar yang besar diromi semasa mereka maju. Walau apa pun, identiti linguistik dan kebudayaan Maghribi, seperti yang diramalkan oleh geografinya, adalah hasil pertemuan tiga kalangan utama: Arab, Barbar, dan Eropah Mediterranean Barat.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Masakan
Masakan Maghribi (المطبخ المغربي) merupakan masakan Maghribi, didorong oleh interaksi dan pertukaran dengan banyak budaya dan negara selama berabad-abad. Masakan Maghribi biasanya merupakan campuran masakan Arab, Barbar, Andalusi, dan Mediterranean, dengan pengaruh Eropah (Perancis dan Sepanyol) dan sub-Sahara yang minimum. Seperti masakan Maghrebi yang lain, masakan Maghribi mempunyai lebih banyak persamaan dengan masakan Timur Tengah berbanding dengan seluruh Afrika.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Seni bina
Seni bina Maghribi mencerminkan geografi yang pelbagai dan sejarah panjang Maghribi, ditandai dengan gelombang peneroka berturut-turut melalui penghijrahan dan penaklukan tentera. Warisan seni bina ini termasuk tapak Rom purba, seni bina Islam bersejarah, seni bina vernakular tempatan, seni bina kolonial Perancis abad ke-20 dan seni bina moden.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Seni bina
Kebanyakan seni bina tradisional Maghribi ditandai dengan gaya yang berkembang semasa zaman Islam, dari abad ke-7 dan seterusnya. Seni bina ini adalah sebahagian daripada tradisi yang lebih luas dari seni bina Islam "Moor" atau barat, yang mencirikan kedua-dua Maghreb (Maghribi, Algeria, dan Tunisia) dan al-Andalus (Muslim Sepanyol dan Portugal). Ia menggabungkan pengaruh budaya Amazigh (Barbar) di Afrika Utara, Sepanyol pra-Islam (Romawi, Byzantine, dan Visigothic), dan arus artistik kontemporari di Timur Tengah Islam untuk menghuraikan gaya unik selama berabad-abad dengan ciri-ciri yang dikenali seperti gerbang ladam, taman riad, dan motif geometri dan arabes yang rumit dalam kayu, stuko berukir dan kerja jubin zellij.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Seni bina
Walaupun seni bina Maghribi Amazigh tidak terpisah sepenuhnya daripada seni bina Maghribi yang lain, banyak struktur dan gaya seni bina dikaitkan secara tersendiri dengan kawasan tradisional yang dikuasai Amazigh atau Amazigh seperti Pergunungan Atlas dan kawasan Sahara dan pra-Sahara. Kawasan luar bandar yang kebanyakannya ditandakan dengan banyak qasabah (kubu pertahanan) dan ksour (kampung berkubu) yang dibentuk oleh geografi dan struktur sosial tempatan, yang mana salah satu yang paling terkenal ialah Ait Benhaddou. Ia lazimnya diperbuat daripada tanah rammed dan dihiasi dengan motif geometri tempatan. Jauh daripada terasing daripada arus seni sejarah lain di sekeliling mereka, orang Amazigh Maghribi (dan di seluruh Afrika Utara) menyesuaikan bentuk dan idea seni bina Islam mengikut keadaan mereka sendiri dan seterusnya menyumbang kepada pembentukan seni Islam Barat, terutamanya semasa mereka penguasaan politik wilayah itu selama berabad-abad pemerintahan Al-Murabitun, Al-Muwahhidun, dan Banu Marin.

Kebudayaan Maghribi
Seni bina
Seni bina moden di Maghribi merangkumi banyak contoh Art Deco awal abad ke-20 dan seni bina neo-Moor (atau Mauresque) tempatan yang dibina semasa penjajahan Perancis (dan Sepanyol) di negara itu antara 1912 dan 1956 (atau sehingga 1958 untuk Sepanyol). Pada abad ke-20 kemudian, selepas Maghribi memperoleh semula kemerdekaannya, beberapa bangunan baru terus memberi penghormatan kepada seni bina dan motif Maghribi tradisional (walaupun direka oleh arkitek asing), seperti yang ditunjukkan oleh Makam Raja Mohammed V (siap pada 1971) dan Masjid Hassan II yang besar di Casablanca (siap pada 1993). Seni bina moden juga jelas dalam pembinaan kontemporari, bukan sahaja untuk struktur harian biasa tetapi juga dalam projek prestij utama.

Coat of arms
The coat of arms displayed on the College Charter is that of George IV. The shield depicts the royal coat of arms together with an inescutcheon of the House of Hanover, while the supporters embody the College motto of sancte et sapienter. No correspondence is believed to have survived regarding the choice of this coat of arms, either in the College Archives or at the College of Arms, and a wide variety of unofficial adaptations have been used during the history of the College. The current coat of arms was developed following the mergers with Queen Elizabeth College and Chelsea College in 1985, and incorporates aspects of their heraldry. The College's coat of arms, in heraldic terminology, is:
The arms:
"Or on a Pale Azure between two Lions rampant respectant Gules an Anchor Gold ensigned by a Royal Crown proper on a Chief Argent an Ancient Lamp proper inflamed Gold between two Blazing Hearths also proper."
The crest and supporters: "On a Helm with a Wreath Or and Azure Upon a Book proper rising from a Coronet Or the rim set with jewels two Azure (one manifest) four Vert (two manifest) and two Gules a demi Lion Gules holding a Rod of Dexter a female figure habited Azure the cloak lined coif and sleeves Argent holding in the exterior hand a Lond Cross botony Gold and sinister a male figure the Long Coat Azure trimmed with Sable proper shirt Argent holding in the interior hand a Book proper."
