Selwyn’s men and women rowers are taking to the water this week in the May Bumps. These historic races, which take place in June despite their name, pit Cambridge Colleges against each other on the River Cam – with glory for the crew that manages to bump the boat in front of them.

Selwyn has multiple crews taking part. Our top women’s boat is in Division 1, and our leading men are in Division 2. You can follow what happens by turning up riverside, with the latest information on timings here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays/times. Or follow the College Twitter and Facebook feeds, which are relaying the highlights of the week. The full list of Selwyn crews is:

M1: Division 2

M2: Division 3

Hermes Crew: Division 4

W1: Division 1

W2: Division 3

W3: Division 4

 

The official re-opening of Cripps Court has been set for December 3rd, but the building will be fully operational again in time for the academic year starting this autumn.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The building dates from 1968, and originally had 170 rooms. This refurbishment, costing just over £13m and taking the best part of two years, has made the vast majority of accommodation en-suite; and it has added an extra level with 52 new rooms including kitchen and communal areas with views over Cambridge. With its two other main Courts, this means that Selwyn offers affordable housing on-site for virtually all its undergraduates and graduates; and the new Cripps will make better use of light and colour to create a great living and working environment.
