College Record 2022/23
The 2023/24 edition of the College Record, the formal record of the academic year at Wolfson College, Oxford. As well as recording the fellowship and membership of the College as it stood in 2023/24, the Record is a chance for members to look back on the previous academic year and take stock of the activities of our many research clusters and societies, to celebrate the achievements of our students, researchers and alumni, and to share news of interest with the whole Wolfson community. This year, alongside updates from members across the world, readers can find reflections on the life of Anders Celsius, Byzantine art, the legal fight for clean rivers in the UK, and Wolfson’s own mysterious Second World War bunker. The Record is edited by Dr Roger Tomlin.

As we head into the Long Vacation, work does not stop for our members from Wolfson<br />
and St Cross. There are pots to be won at summer regattas, new coxes to be given a seat,<br />
the chance of sculling in our small boats. Summer is also when we welcome new volunteers<br />
and say goodbye – or at least ‘au revoir’ – to those finishing their degrees and leaving<br />
Oxford. We bid a special farewell to one of our long-standing coaches, who is moving to<br />
the USA. He marked his last day with us by repeating the first, taking some new members<br />
out on the water for their first outing with the Club.<br />
As always, we thank our generous sponsors and alumni for the ongoing support which<br />
makes everyone remember to Fear the Wolf.<br />
