Originally and uninspiringly known as ‘University College’, Wolfson’s a graduate and mature affair, which takes affiliated medical students as well as undergrads for the whole gamut of Cam degrees. It’s less champagne and hierarchy-driven than most of the other colleges, with no JCR/SCR division and a hardcore approach to work. They like to think of themselves as modern, cosmopolitan and lively, and even though they’re not exactly party animals, they ain’t poopers either.
