History

The college was founded in 1962 by Alan Bullock, out of the former St Catherine's Society for unattached undergraduates. In 1974, it became one of the first five co-educational colleges in the university. It prides itself on having produced more Nobel laureates than any other Oxford or Cambridge college except Trinity College, Cambridge.
