M$1 Answer
(Is it okay if the answer is totally and utterly biased?)
I happen to know three guys who went Cambridge back in the early 60's and were part of "The Footlights, a celebrated performing society".
Achievements? They went on to do a variety of silly variety shows and droll whatnot. Not really anything terribly noteworthy. *ahem*
Graham Chapman, graduated as a medical doctor
John Cleese, graduated in 1963, took Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.
Eric Idle, graduated 1967 and was the Footlights club president to allow women to join the club.

(Check out "The Pythons" autobiography book. Sadly Mr. Chapman was a bit too dead to contribute, but it's still awesome. I own it. And sorry for the joking around everybody. Hehe. I'm really a biased person to answer this because I love this show, and don't know other Cambridge grads! )
