The college continues to champion ideals of access, openness and inclusivity. the student body numbers 226 full-time and 612 part-time students.〔 The college came into being on 1 March 1990 (as Rewley House) and was named in honour of Will Keith 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 Departments for Continuing Education, Medicine, Education, Computer Science, Law 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. In 1878, Arthur Johnson was the first to deliver an "Oxford Extension Lecture".〔(Podcasts from the University of Oxford ): Lectures and seminars, by guest lecturers, at 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, poorer men, and women. It is this movement that forms the historical background of Kellogg. The Oxford Extension 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. Kellogg College celebrated its "coming of age" in 2011 〔University of Oxford http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2011/112303_1.html〕 and celebrated its quarter of a century anniversary in March 2015.〔Kellogg College http://www.kellogg.ox.ac.uk/discover/news/our-silver-anniversary-25-years-of-kellogg-college/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kellogg College, Oxford」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
