On Saturday 2 May 2026, Selwyn’s women’s football team put in a fantastic effort in the Cambridge University Shield, finishing their season as Shield runners-up and fourth in the league overall.
Captained by Jaya Fox, the team looked sharp in their brand-new kit, generously gifted by Selwyn alumnus Nick Craggs.
The Right Rev Lord Harries of Pentregarth (1936 to 2026)
We were very sad to hear of the death of the Right Rev Lord Harries of Pentregarth, who died on 29 April, aged 89. One of our Honorary Fellows, Richard Harries read theology at the College (BA 1961, MA 1965) and went on to a remarkable career in the Church and public life.
Two new Gates Scholars will be joining Selwyn in October. Paulina Lohbeck and Cong Minh Nguyen were announced on 17 April as members of the Gates Cambridge Class of 2026.
