Information for Students

With great sadness, the college announces the death on March 27th of its former master Sir David Harrison at the age of 92.

The college is pleased to announce that its flagship Ramsay Murray lecture will be given this year by Professor Lyndal Roper, Regius Professor of History at the University of Oxford. Her title is ‘Revolution: The German Peasants’ War 1524-6’, and she will argue that this was the greatest uprising in western Europe before the French Revolution.

Members of Selwyn have been part of successful Cambridge University teams taking on Oxford in the seasonal Varsity matches. Here are some of the highlights, illustrating the wide range of sports enjoyed in the college and the university.

We are deeply saddened by the death on February 25th of our honorary fellow Sir David Lumsden at the age of 94.

Selwyn College has announced that it is setting up an annual prize, along with a travel scholarship, in memory of the broadcaster Bill Turnbull who died last year.
