Becca! You're a Cambridge student and you're asking that?! I thought the only reason any of us went there was to be BA (Hons.) Cantab at the end of it...
To answer your question, I believe it's short for Cantabrigensis (sp?), the Latin name for Cambridge. If you have a degree from Durham you put 'Dunelm' at the end, and from London, 'London'. Don't know about anywhere else...
