About Gresham College | Gresham College

The College has been based at Barnard’s Inn Hall since 1991.
. . .
It was there that the Professors gave their lectures until 1768, their salaries being met from rental income from the shops around the Royal Exchange which Sir Thomas had bequeathed jointly to the City of London Corporation and the Mercers’ Company.

. . .
This period saw the formation and early development at Gresham College of The Royal Society, and the tenure of chairs by a number of distinguished Professors, including Sir Christopher Wren.
. . .
This was brought to fruition by Sir Thomas, on land provided by the City of London Corporation, and was given the royal appellation by Queen Elizabeth I.
. . .
In addition to the free public lectures, the College runs occasional seminars and conferences, and provides support to initiatives by the Gresham Professors and others which seek to reinterpret the ‘new learning’ of Sir Thomas Gresham’s time in contemporary terms.

Gresham College (Pepys' Diary)

It was devised as a focus-point among the other 126 free public lectures offered every year[6].
. . .
[edit] Professors Gresham College, engraving by George Vertue, 1740 The seven original Gresham College Professorships that date back to the origins of the college are as follows: Astronomy Divinity Mathematics Law Music Medicine Rhetoric These original endowed chairs reflect the curriculum of the medieval university (the trivium and quadrivium); but as a place for the public and frequent voicing of new ideas, the college played an important role in the Enlightenment and in the formation of the Royal Society.
. . .
[edit] History Sir Thomas Gresham, founder of the Royal Exchange, left his estate jointly to the City of London Corporation and to the Mercers' Company, which today support the college through the Joint Grand Gresham Committee under the presidency of the Lord Mayor of the City of London.
. . .
Early famous Gresham College professors have included Christopher Wren, who lectured on astronomy in the 17th century, and Robert Hooke, who was Professor of Geometry from 1665 until 1704.[2] The professors received ?50 a year, and the terms of their position were very precise, for example: The geometrician is to read as followeth, every Trinity term arithmetique, in Michaelmas and Hilary terms theoretical geometry, in Easter term practical geometry.
. . .
Although many of the lectures are held in Barnard's Inn Hall, the majority are now held in the lecture hall at the Museum of London, for reasons of capacity.
. . .
The College does not enroll any students and awards no degrees.

However, events in the mid-1660s meant that the Society's presence in Gresham College was far from continuous.
. . .
Back at Gresham College, the poor state of the buildings and growing commercial pressures at the end of the seventeenth century led to calls for a redevelopment of the site.

Gresham College - British history and tourist information

This fourteenth century hall was once owned by the law college Gray's Inn.

This vision was made reality by his son Sir Thomas Gresham, in the form of the Royal Exchange.
. . .
See the college website for details, and for an archive of recordings of past lectures.
