A thesis in 3 minutes

The College held a three-minute thesis competition this week. The intention was to provide students with an opportunity to
present about their work (projects or dissertations and not regular supervision essays) briefly and in a convivial
atmosphere. A wide range of students from both the JCR and MCR took part, and our photographs show two of the winners. Rob
Byron, an undergraduate Classics student, is pictured with the Master, Roger Mosey, who was one of the judging panel; and
graduate student Camille Stavrakas is shown with another judge, Dr Emily Charnock.

    Sweden’s foreign minister Tobias Billström gave a talk at Selwyn on April 16th about why his country has joined NATO. He warned that the world is going through a dangerous phase: not just the Russian attack on Ukraine, but also China’s intentions and the current crisis in the Middle East. These changing circumstances were why Sweden decided to relinquish the neutrality that it has held for more than two centuries.
