Residential colleges of Yale University
Yale University has a system of residential colleges with which all Yale undergraduate students and many faculty are affiliated. Inaugurated in 1933, the twelve colleges are considered the defining feature of undergraduate life in Yale College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Yale College )〕 Eight colleges were funded by educational philanthropist Edward S. Harkness, who admired the collegiate universities of England and funded a similar system of residential "houses" at Harvard College in 1928.
Though their organizational and architectural features are modeled after the autonomous, constituent colleges of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, they are dependent colleges of the university with limited self-governance. Each college is headed by a Master, who is usually a tenured professor, and a Dean in charge of student affairs and residential life. University faculty and administrators are affiliated with the colleges as fellows, and some live or keep offices in the college along with the Dean and Master.
The eight colleges designed by James Gamble Rogers are largely Collegiate Gothic and Georgian, and all but two use revivalist architectural styles. All twelve are built in an enclosing configuration around a central courtyard. Each has a dining hall, library, recreational facilities, a Master's House, apartments for resident fellows and Dean, and 250 to 400 student rooms, with most arranged in suites. Most reside in the colleges after their freshman year, during which they reside on the university's Old Campus. In addition to sharing common residence and dining facilities, students plan events, lectures, and social activities within their college, and compete against other colleges in a yearlong intramural sports championship.
