It’s a recent tradition at Selwyn that the college Christmas card is designed by students. There’s a competition open to all JCR and MCR members during the Michaelmas term after which the best entry is chosen, and it then becomes the image for the card that is sent to hundreds of people.
Selwyn is hosting prospective students throughout December for undergraduate admissions interviews. Most of our interviews take place in person, and applicants are welcomed to the college by existing students who staff a helpdesk. The photo below, by schools liaison officer Shireen Nawaz, shows some of our team poised for action.
Selwyn College and Cambridge United Foundation (CUF) have agreed a new partnership between their two organisations to give students the opportunity to participate in Foundation community activities including volunteering and fundraising.
Selwyn has made another major step towards greater sustainability across its site. The college has added around 70 solar photovoltaic panels to the existing installation on the roof of Cripps Court, increasing green power generation capacity by 50% and meeting around one third of the annual electricity usage of the building.
