judge business school I worked at  Judge Business School at the University of Cambridge delivering executive education programs.  Once, I took this photo of the front of the school to send it to my children to show them where I worked when I traveled to the UK.  I took it from my mobile phone.  Several months ago the publisher of travel guides, Schmap, emailed me saying they wanted to use one of my photos.  I agreed, and now it is published in Schmap!! England.  Here is what it says about the University of Cambridge in the description that accompany's the photo:

Most first-time visitors to Cambridge come with one aim: to see the university. But where is it? There is no sole university site, but rather the university's 31 colleges are scattered around the city. The university is said to date from 1209, when students fled riots in Oxford and settled in Cambridge. The oldest, Peterhouse, was founded in 1284; the newest, Robinson, in 1977. The colleges come in all shapes and sizes: from small postgraduate Clare Hall, built in the late 60s, to the grand Tudor expanse of Trinity. Every student is affiliated to a college, and each college is self-governing and financially independent. The university controls the faculties, subject departments, central administration (the Old Schools and the Senate House), museums, the printing press and the Botanic Garden.
