Dr Brian Knight went to school in Letchworth Grammar School and was part of Churchill College’s pioneering state school sixth form visitor scheme in 1972. He came to visit the College for a weekend in the lower sixth form, to get a taste of university life, so it seemed a natural choice to apply here for his undergraduate degree in Natural Sciences. After his third year, he took a follow-on year studying Computer Science. At the time, Computer Science did not exist as an undergraduate degree.
Ellie Vitanov applied to Churchill College during the Covid-19 pandemic, and lived in Bulgaria at the time, so in contrast had never been to Cambridge. She applied to Churchill College as she wanted to study Computer Science and liked its location. Brian and Ellie met to compare experiences and explore how Churchill College and computer science has changed over the years.
