In Kingston upon Hull, a city in Yorkshire's East Riding, England, the Institution of Hull is a public university that was established in 1927. A smaller campus is located near Scarborough on the North Yorkshire coast, and the university's main campus is in Hull. The Hull York Medical School, a joint venture with the University of York, is located on the main campus. The Hull University Union provides services to students. The poet Philip Larkin worked at the university's Brynmor Jones Library for nearly thirty years as its head librarian. The Larkin 25 festival, which was held in 2010 in collaboration with the University, was one of the events put on by the Philip Larkin Society to honor Larkin. Andrew Motion, a former poet laureate, worked at the Library. From 1978 through 1994, Lord Wilberforce served as the University's chancellor. From 1994 through 2006, Robert Armstrong served as the chancellor. The current chancellor, Virginia Bottomley, was appointed in April 2006. Politics, academics, media, and theater are among the many professions where University of Hull alums are particularly well-known. They include Anthony Giddens, a social scientist, former MP Lord Prescott (John Prescott), former MP and later Deputy Prime Minister Lord Hattersley (Roy Hattersley), politician Chris Mullin, poet Roger McGough, journalist John McCarthy, and film director, playwright, and screenwriter Anthony Minghella. Prince Albert, the Duke of York, lay the University Institution Hull foundation stone in 1927, when it was still an external college of the University of London (who later became king as George VI). Thomas Ferens and G F Grant, two local donors, as well as Hull City Council provided land for the college's construction. The first 14 departments in the arts and pure sciences started a year later with 39 students. At the time, the college only had one structure, which is today known as the Venn building (after the mathematician John Venn, who was born in Hull). The university's administrative center is presently housed in the structure. Other historic structures include the Staff House, constructed in 1948 as the Student's Union, and the Cohen Building, which once served as the college library. The 1953-built Chemistry Building was another early building. Due to the massive increase in student enrollment that occurred in the 1950s, several academic departments were housed in temporary structures, commonly referred to as "huts," which gave the campus the appearance of a "academic army camp." Hull University is not a redbrick university in the strictest meaning of the word because it was not established as part of the civic university movement of the late Victorian and early Edwardian eras, despite the fact that many of the buildings on campus are constructed of red brick. Hull, which was founded in the 1920s, is categorized as a "younger municipal university" (also known as a "Whitetile university"). It is situated between the universities built of "redbricks" and those made of "plateglass" in the 1960s. With the university's recent growth, a range of building types have been added, from traditional older buildings to teaching buildings from the 1960s to contemporary additions. The institution had two principals: Arthur E. Morgan (1926–1935) and John H. Nicholson (1935–1956). When the college was given university status, Nicholson also served as the college's first vice-chancellor.
