2012 Annual Report - Jesus College - University of Cambridge

Note from the Editor
We wish to thank all those who have contributed to this year’s Annual Report, which
depends on its readers for the generous and timely flow of copy and information.
We welcome suggestions for articles from the widest scope of College membership
including Fellows and other Senior Members, students, and Old Members. Ideally,
articles should run to about 1,000 words and be accompanied by a photograph or
illustration. This year we have extended the college history section and added a new
section titled “Memoir” in which Dr Stan Evans has celebrated the centenary of Scott’s
arrival at the South Pole with recollections of his own time wintering in the Antarctic.
We are also grateful to Derek Taylor for his article on some past Jewish students at Jesus.
Readers wishing to offer articles should write to me at jc224@cam.ac.uk
This edition brings news of the year’s three Rustat Conferences, a project founded in
the College in 2009 and which welcomes the interest and participation of Old Members.
Those wishing to participate in future conferences can see notification for future
meetings at www.rustat.org and contact me as above.
Limitations of space meant that we were not able to run the photographic section
“Photo Call” this year; but we are keen to include it next year and welcome good
photographs featuring College-related scenes and people, including sport, music and
celebrations.
Old Members who wish to send notification of births, deaths and marriages, and other
news such as promotions, appointments, awards and other achievements should contact
the Development Office at development@jesus.cam.ac.uk
Students who run our College societies and sports clubs should send their copy to
Nikki Williams in the Development Office in good time. Ideally the deadline for all copy
is 1 July, but the earlier the better.
We welcome suggestions for the improvement and expansion of the Annual Report
which strives to reflect the variety and multidisciplinary scope of College life, past and
present.
