Middle Combination Room
GB 2198 001030 · Corporate body · 1953 -

The Middle Combination Room (MCR) was part of the Junior Combination Room (JCR), both as a common room and an organisation. By 1953 there was a separate bachelors common room, just as there was a separate bachelors table in the Hall. By 1968 the MCR received a separate entertainment allowance from that of the JCR, suggesting they were both independent organisations. In 1972 the Gonville and Caius Student Union (GCSU) financially took over the JCR and the MCR. In the present day the MCR retains a separate social identity.
