  • Kresge College is one of the residential colleges that make up the University of California, Santa Cruz. Founded in 1971 and named after Sebastian Kresge, Kresge college is located on the western edge of the UCSC campus. Kresge is the sixth of ten colleges at UCSC, and originally one of the most experimental. The first provost of Kresge, Bob Edgar, had been strongly influenced by his experience in T-groups run by NTL Institute. He asked a T-group facilitator, psychologist Michael Kahn, to help him start the college. When they arrived at UCSC, they taught a course, Creating Kresge College, in which they and the students in it designed the college. Kresge was a participatory democracy, and students had extraordinary power in the early years. The college was run by two committees: Community Affairs and Academic Affairs. Any faculty member, student or staff member who wanted to be on these committees could be on them. Students' votes counted as much as the faculty or staff. These committees determined the budgets and hiring. They were also run by consensus. Distinguished early faculty members included Gregory Bateson, former husband of Margaret Mead and author of Steps to an Ecology of Mind; Phil Slater, author of The Pursuit of Loneliness; John Grinder, co-founder of Neuro-linguistic programming and co-author of The Structure of Magic; and William Everson, one of the Beat poets. Distinguished graduates from the early days of Kresge College include Doug Foster, who went on to become editor of Mother Jones magazine, and Richard Bandler, who co-founded Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) with John Grinder.

  • Kresge College es una de las residencias de estudiantes del Campus de Santa Cruz de la Universidad de California, Estados Unidos. Esta residencia está localizada en el oeste del campus y es una de los seis complejos residenciales para estudiantes del Campus de Santa Cruz. Kresge College fue diseñada por el arquitecto Charles Willard Moore en 1969 y construida entre 1972 y 1974. Esta obra recoge muchas ideas y formas de hacer arquitectura de este arquitecto. El complejo está formado por edificios colocados irregularmente formando un pequeño "pueblo" compuesto por bloques con habitaciones y edificios que sirven para otras funciones. Esta es una obra representativa de Cahres W. Moore y una de las más importantes de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Destacan las dobles fachadas que tienen muchos edificios y los Super Graphics que hay en algunos de ellos. La gran funcionalidad del complejo hace que se cumpla la intención de Moore de que los alumnos disfruten su estancia. (es)
