An eventful year

Where has the year gone?! With most of the academic year already behind us and examinations just five weeks away, now seems a good time to look back on what has occurred at the College since my autumn newsletter.

Indeed, it has been an extremely busy year but in a good sense. In this newsletter, through the various articles included,  I want to provide Fellows, Council  Members and Alumni, with some details about the various activities and events that our Members people have been involved in this year.

Firstly, I'd like to congratulate the College's three new Fellows who have recently been appointed by the Council: Dr Jon Cornwall, Dr John Heydon and Professor Takashi Shogimen (please see the accompanying article for further information about our new Fellows). We look forward to their contribution to the College in the future.

As you know, St Margaret's is more than merely a place to stay.  We endeavour to provide excellent facilities, a friendly atmosphere and a caring and respectful community so that our student Members can thrive in their studies, make wonderful friends, have healthy fun, and develop as an individual and a contributing member of society.

We actively encourage our Members to take part in a variety of activities - cultural, social and sport - beyond merely their academic pursuits so that they can develop and hone a broad range of skills. A caring community such as exists at St Margaret's provides a golden opportunity for Members to do just this.

I hope that the articles included in this newsletter will provide you with a good sense of what Members have been busy with this year. Of course, they have also applied themselves to their academic studies (very important!) but at the same time expanded their minds and repertoire of skills in other valuable ways.

Enjoy reading this Spring newsletter.

Best wishes

Dr Charles Tustin
