We learned today, with deep regret, that Ann Dobson has died. Ann and her husband Chris provided almost all the funding for
the first two phases of the College’s masterplan for expansion; and Ann’s Court is named in her honour. The Master of
Selwyn, Roger Mosey, said: "This and future generations of students will be enormously grateful to Ann Dobson, along with
Chris, for the wonderful buildings and excellent accommodation they enjoy. At this time of sadness, we’re proud that the
Court will continue to bear her name." The College sends its condolences to Chris Dobson, an honorary Fellow of
Selwyn, and to Ann’s family and friends.
