Ladies of Steelpan At The University of Cambridge United Kingdom - The University of Cambridge is the second oldest university in England and the fourth oldest in Europe. Cambridge is consistently ranked in the world's top five universities and placed as the leading university in Europe, by numerous media and academic rankings.
