The lectures and hostel swiftly became Newnham College, and Anne Jemima Clough its first Principal. The new college took a different approach to women's education to Girton College: where Girton focused on equality, Newnham focused on intellectual flourishing. Girton insisted girls take all the same exams as boys, where Newnham allowed girls to skip the "Little-Go" exam of Latin, Greek and divinity and progress directly to studying their chosen subject. Similarly, while Girton's residence was a more surprising design, created by architect Alfred Waterhouse, Newnham Hall was designed to be more tranquil and domestic.
