中文介绍

威廉&；玛丽大学是美国历史第二悠久的大学，仅次于哈佛大学。“公共常春藤”成立于1693年，由威廉三世国王和玛丽二世女王授予皇家特许状。该机构可以宣称许多“第一”，包括1776年美国第一个希腊字母协会Phi Beta Kappa和美国第一所法学院

其位于弗吉尼亚州威廉斯堡的1200英亩历史悠久的主校区是该国最古老的大学建筑克里斯托弗·雷恩爵士大楼的所在地，该大楼于1700年竣工。威廉斯堡校区包括人造的马托卡湖（Lake Matoaka）、海岸上的布里格斯露天剧场（Briggs Amphitheatre）和森林学院（College Woods）

该大学共有40多门本科生课程和约20个研究生课程，涉及四所研究生院——商业、教育、法律和海洋科学，共有约8000名学生

三位美国总统曾在威廉研究所学习；玛丽、托马斯·杰斐逊、詹姆斯·门罗和约翰·泰勒。其他著名校友包括喜剧演员、《每日秀》前主持人Jon Stewart、美国国家航空航天局首席科学家Ellen Stofan、联邦调查局局长James Comey和演员Glenn Close

古怪的传统包括漂流辩论，来自不同学科的学者相互对立。这个想法是，四名“海难幸存者”在一个只有一艘小木筏的荒岛上。每一位学者都必须说服选出获胜者的观众，他们是最值得离开这个岛的人

英文介绍

William & Mary is the second-oldest university in the US after Harvard University. The “public Ivy” was founded in 1693 with the granting of a royal charter by King William III and Queen Mary II. The institution can claim many “firsts” including the US’ first Greek letter society, Phi Beta Kappa in 1776, and the country’s first law school.

Its main 1,200-acre historic campus in Williamsburg, Virginia, is home to the oldest university structure in the country, the Sir Christopher Wren Building, which was completed in 1700. The Williamsburg campus includes man-made Lake Matoaka, with the Briggs Amphitheatre on its shores, and College Woods.

Instructing about 8,000 students, the university has more than 40 undergraduate courses, and about 20 graduate programmes across four graduate schools – business, education, law and marine science.

Three US presidents studied at William & Mary, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe and John Tyler. Other famous alumni include Jon Stewart, the comedian and former host of The Daily Show, Ellen Stofan, the chief scientist of Nasa, James Comey, the director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the actor Glenn Close.

Quirky traditions include the Raft Debate, where scholars from different disciplines are pitted against one other. The idea is that four “shipwrecked survivors” are on a desert island with only one small raft. Each academic must persuade the audience, who select the winner, that they are the person who most deserves to leave the island.
