Jesus College, College in Cambridge, England
Jesus College extends across substantial grounds featuring medieval buildings, modern facilities, sports fields, and gardens at the University of Cambridge.
The college began operations in 1496 on a former Benedictine nunnery site, founded by John Alcock, Bishop of Ely at that time.
The college chapel maintains two distinct choirs that perform regular services throughout academic terms in the oldest university building still used at Cambridge.
Students receive accommodation either within the main college structures or in properties owned by the institution near the central campus location.
Sonita Alleyne made institutional history in 2019 as the first black leader of any Oxford or Cambridge college and first female master of Jesus College.
