context_page_description: Fitzwilliam College is a constituent college of the University of Cambridge, England.
  The college traces its origins back to 1869 and the foundation of the Non-Collegiate Students Board, a venture intended to offer academically excellent students of all backgrounds a chance to study at the university. The institution was originally based at Fitzwilliam Hall, opposite the Fitzwilliam Museum in south-west Cambridge. Having moved to its present site in the north of the city, Fitzwilliam attained collegiate status in 1966. Female undergraduates were first admitted in 1978, around the time most colleges were first admitting women.
  Fitzwilliam is now home to around 475 undergraduates, 400 graduate students and 90 fellows. By overall student numbers, it is the seventh-largest college in Cambridge as of 2018/19.
  Notable alumni of Fitzwilliam College include six Nobel Laureates, prominent academics, three heads of state or government, one current UK Supreme Court Justice, and a significant number of political figures including the former Liberal Democrats leader, a former Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the current and former Commissioners of the Metropolitan Police.
context_section_description: In the mid-eighties, the college expanded to the south with the construction of New Court, a three-walled residential compound, designed by MacCormac Jamieson Prichard. Students and fellows contributed to the design with such ideas as intersecting staircases and elongated windows. The building won 1989 David Urwin Award for Best New Building.
  In 2004, the court gained its fourth wall with the completion of the college's new auditorium.
