From the age of seven, Cameron was educated
at two independent schools. Due to good academic grades, Cameron entered the
top academic class almost two years early. At the age of thirteen, he went to
Eton College in Berkshire, following his father and elder brother. His early
interest was in art. Six weeks before taking his O Level he was caught smoking
cannabis (大麻). He admitted the offence but had not
been involved in selling drugs, so he was not expelled. However, he was fined
and prevented from leaving school grounds.
After leaving Eton in 1984, Cameron started
a ninemonth gap year. He worked as a researcher for Tim Rathbone. In his three
months there, he attended debates in the House of Commons. Through his father, he
was then employed for a further three months in Hong Kong by Jardine Matheson
as a “ship jumper”, which was an administrative post.
Cameron then began his Bachelor of Arts
studies in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Brasenose College, Oxford. His
tutor described him as one of the ablest students he had taught, with moderate
and sensible Conservative political views.
Guy Spier, who shared a tutor with him, remembers
him as an outstanding student, “We were doing our best to grasp basic economic
concepts. However, nobody even came close to Cameron. He would be integrating
them with the way the British political system is put together. He could have
lectured me for it, and I would have sat there and taken notes. ”
While at Oxford, Cameron was a member of
the excellent student dining society, the Bullingdon Club, which has a
reputation for a strange drinking culture associated with boisterous (狂放不羁的) behavior and damaging property. Cameron graduated in 1988 with a
firstclass honours degree.
