Selwyn’s degree ceremony took place on Friday 27 June, one of 4 days of what’s known in the University of Cambridge as ‘General Admission’. Our picture shows graduands making their way through the College grounds and heading to the ceremony in the Senate House in central Cambridge. The forecasts of heavy rain all afternoon turned out, happily, to be wide of the mark.
Here the procession is being led by the College’s head porter, Helen Stephens. Behind her to the left is the Master, Roger Mosey; and to the right, wearing scarlet, the Praelector David Chivers whose job it is to present the graduands to the Vice Chancellor’s deputy.
Afterwards there were drinks on the lawn of Old Court, followed by supper for the graduates and their families and friends. All of us at Selwyn pay tribute to our talented students who received their degrees this June. You can see more pictures from Graduation Day here.
