More Info

Cambridge is one of the most fascinating and rewarding places to visit in all Great Britain. Every college has its own history, every little street is picturesque–and running through the whole charming city is the River Cam which provides magnificent views of the colleges along the “backs” (the anterior aspects of the colleges along the river). You can go punting on the river, you can hike in the countryside, you can eat in charming little restaurants. And you can visit the single most beautiful Medieval space in all of England: the breathtaking, fan-vaulted Kings College Chapel. Join us for a fascinating evening in Cambridge!

William H. Fredlund, the Director of the Institute, obtained his B.A. and M.A. from UCLA, where he specialized in European history and art history. He studied in Italy on a Fulbright Fellowship and completed a double Ph.D. in history and humanities at Stanford, specializing in Renaissance Italy. Dr. Fredlund has taught for UCLA, the University of Florence, Stanford, and UCSC Extension.
