This has been an exceptional year for the Selwyn College Choir. The summer saw their sell-out tour of the Pacific Northwest, and they arrived home to find that their latest recording was album of the week on Classic FM – and then in the top 10 of the specialist classical chart. Concerts in the UK, and appreciative reviews, have confirmed that this is a choir that excels.

Selwyn's Novice Women rowers came second in Division 1 at this year's Emma Sprints. The crews row in fancy dress, and Selwyn opted for the Von Trapp family look. Our correspondent on the Cam tells us:

Selwyn's sports day for Old Boys and Girls took place in late October, and pitted past generations against current students. There were contests in football, rugby, hockey and netball; and, as our photo from the hockey shows, the events took place in the friendliest of atmospheres.

The Master of Selwyn, Roger Mosey, was interviewed by John Humphrys of the Today programme at an
event in London on Tuesday October 20^th. The session covered Roger’s recent book about the BBC,
’Getting Out Alive’. It took place at Hatchards bookshop in Piccadilly, and a number of Selwyn
alumni came along. The author’s proceeds from book sales are being donated to student support at
the College.
