Because the college wanted to celebrate itself and demonstrate how it has notable alumni. So any alum of any defensible level of notability would have worked here. Nobody looked at the story of Sir Ronald Fisher and decided he need a window somewhere; they looked at the yearbooks of Gonville and Caius and found who could fit on the windows.
If we can at least be honest about that, then we can conclude that the college has a vested interest in claiming that the guy is stained-glass-window-worthy, and therefore the fact that he has a stained-glass window now is not a reliable argument that he ought to have one.
