Dr Pippa Rogerson writes:

Looking back through my diary of the last academic year at the end of the summer I have been surprised to find COVID remained a significant factor in the operations of the College. The pandemic appears to have slipped out of consciousness such that it is difficult even a short while afterwards to remember exactly what happened. For example, we were still testing students for COVID weekly in the Michaelmas Term although social distancing rules no longer applied. Covid was not over however, the arrival of the first wave of the Omicron Pippa Rogerson Michael Peter Robinson variant in December forced cancellation of the Perse Feast, Prichard an Master Senior Fellow President, DoS in Comp Sci, Annual Gathering and Drinks. The children’s party washistory hastily Conflict of laws, company lawthe Master’s Christmas Legal and equity Comp technology re-arranged to take place outside at Harvey Court. Then after Christmas all remaining restrictions dropped away, so for the most part the College year was back to prepandemic arrangements. The cancelled events were put on later in the year as well as other post COVID catch up occasions. Teaching was largely in person, with some online options. Sports and social events took place, including the May Ball, MA celebrations and the May Week Party for benefactors. The committee of students, almost none of whom had attended a May Ball, overcame their inexperience and with wisdom from the Senior and Domestic Bursars put on a fabulous night of entertainment. Nine new fellows were admitted to the College in October 2021: Orfeas Chasapis Tassinis (for Neil research in public international law), Stephen Turton (for research in English and James Fitzsimons McKendrick Michael Wood Medical physiology Modern English social & economic history Linguistics), Michele Simoncelli (for research in Condensed Matter Physics and Materials Mechanical engineering Science), Jan Steinebrunner (for research in mathematics), Geoffrey Maguire (teaching fellow in Spanish – jointly with Emmanuel), Rachell Sánchez-Rivera (for research in Eugenics in Mexico), Carsten-Andreas Schulz (teaching fellow in Latin American Politics), Michael Joseph (teaching fellow in Black British History), and Thea Don-Siemion (two year Photograph teaching fellow in Economic History). During the year we said farewell to: Jens Scherpe, notTevong available KC Lin, Yu, Ruadhaí Dervan, Carl Turner, Tamsin Blaxter, Tim Twining, Tom ArnoldForster, Lewis Owen, Lisa Kattenberg, and Francesa De Domenico. At the end of the academic year Dr Gareth Conduit stepped down from being Registrary and Dr John Latimer took over that critical role. The Statutes makes the Registrary responsible for Duncan-Jones giving notice of and recording meetings. In practice, the Registrary producesRichard the agendas, Tony Kirby Jeremy Prynne Bioorganic chemistry English poetry Classics papers and minutes (called Gesta) of the College Council, as well as for the General Meeting and Meeting of Tutors and College Lecturers. Along with the dissemination of decisions

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

made by those bodies. Under the Statutes, the College Council is the executive body having “the control and management of all the affairs of the College”, subject to a few exceptions reserved to the General Meeting such as electing a Master. The College Council meets about four times a term, whilst the General Meeting and Meeting of Tutors and College Lecturers meet once a term. One might describe the Registrary as Company Secretary, but that term does not fully read across into a Caius College context. Gareth has been impressive as Registrary for four years, especially when Covid threw our carefully crafted methods of governance into disarray. The College owes him a great debt. John is shortly to retire as a consultant oncologist gynaecologist and is adding to his already wide portfolio of roles in College. He is also the Praelector, Clinical Director of Studies and Tutor for Discipline. The College’s ambition is to achieve “all-round excellence for our students in the provision of education and support to ensure they are equipped to achieve their potential while at Cambridge and to make a positive contribution to the world when they leave”. To achieve that we approved an education strategy addressing outreach, admissions and progression. Caius students have done well academically this year, the College is now seventh in the league tables. We are ambitious for more. The Senior Tutor and team of tutors, Directors of Studies, Supervisors, and Academic Skills Advisers coordinate support for individual students. The College is also committed to continuing to support extra- and co-curricular activities such as music, the chapel, sports (Barton Road and the Boathouse), and the MCR and JCR committees. As a positive response to the staff shortages students are now staffing the College Bar and gaining real-world skills. The choir are magnificent under the baton of Matthew Martin, making their first recording since 2018 working in collaboration with Inn Echo, the early music ensemble. The Boat Club continue their dominance of the Cam with the men’s First VIII retaining the headship of the Mays against a fast Lady Margaret crew. The women’s First VIII rose to second in the Mays chasing an experienced and fast Newnham crew. Increasing the attractiveness of the College to the widest pool of applicants and careful admission of the best students play important roles in improving academic outcomes. Fellows pay much attention to admitting the best candidates. Nonetheless there are many good applicants for the number of places. In pursuance of the outreach strategy Caius has been very active engaging with schools in our allocated Link Areas of Norfolk, Hertfordshire and seven London Boroughs. The London Outreach Officer is an experienced teacher based in London funded by a generous Caian. The Tutor for Outreach and Admissions has been innovative in engagement with the Local Authority in Norfolk over the past two years. An innovative course for 65 gifted students from Year 12 took place this year. Called Caius Explore, it aimed at helping students to develop their academic interests beyond the school curriculum. We are seeing expectations raised and applications to Caius and Cambridge rising via these initiatives. The College found a way to resolve internal differences of view over how students might determine which flag to fly. The flagpole is one of the most prominent in

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Cambridge. The student flag policy permits a student vote, supported by at least onethird of the whole student body, to choose a flag to fly on a day for up to six days a year. Planning permission must be obtained for anything other than the Union Flag, the Rainbow Flag, or the Caius Flag. In addition, the chosen flag must be lawful. The Caius Flag will continue to be flown for Graduation Ceremonies, and other notable national occasions. It flew at half-mast for the time of mourning for Her late Majesty the Queen, being raised for the proclamation of His Majesty the King. The Crown is the College’s visitor, and I was extremely honoured to be present at the State Funeral in Westminster Abbey to represent the College. Fellows’ research remains astounding in its breadth and quality. I can only include a few examples here. Professor Ferdia Gallagher was awarded the British Institute of Radiology New Technologies Prize at the Annual Congress for the development of hyperpolarised carbon-13 MRI as a clinical tool in breast cancer. Dr Michael Joseph won the 2021 French History Article Prize for his article ‘Black women, separation allowances and citizenship in the French Caribbean during the First World War’ (French History, December 2021, pp. 431–48). Professor Patrick Chinnery was awarded the Galen Medal of the Society of Apothecaries for his work on mitochondrial diseases. Professor Ivan Smith has won an ERC grant for a project entitled Floer theory beyond Floer (FloerPlus35). Orfeas Chasapis Tassinis won a Yorke Prize for his doctoral thesis Revisiting the Theoretical Foundations of International Organizations in Public International Law. Professor Sujit Sivasundaram won the Royal Academy Book Prize for global cultural understand with his book Waves Across the South: A New History of Revolution and Empire. The College’s research into the Legacies of Enslavement in College was published on the website in May. A two-day conference in April on Fisher in the 21st Century under the leadership of Sir Alan Fersht was a great success. It explored RA Fisher’s legacy from a range of perspectives: scientific, mathematical, social scientific and historical. The College enjoys Caians’ successes after graduation too. This year has been notable for thespians. Lucy Moss (2014) is half of the creative partnership winning two TONY awards for SIX: The Musical. Lucy says: “I now feel vindicated in having spent more time at the ADC than writing my essays.” Simon Russell Beale (1979) also picked up the Tony for Best Actor in The Lehman Trilogy to add to his many other awards. Combatting Climate Change is a global challenge. Caius is doing its part. The College gained a platinum award in the Green Impact Awards in the University. Several fellows are actively researching solutions (Professor Rob Miller, Professor Alex Routh and Dr Mahadevagowda, among others) and an estate decarbonisation strategy is underway. This latter project is estimated at today’s figures likely to cost £20million over at least 17 years as our historic estate poses difficult challenges. Andrew Gair, the Estates Manager, and Professor Alex Routh must be congratulated on their work. The return on investment is not great, 2% at current values, but the College has taken the decision on the basis that there is no Planet B. The College has already been innovative

in heating the Old Courts. Heat recovery technology applied to the kitchens as part of the refurbishment is performing much better than expected, generating up to 220 kW-h of heat energy versus the 120 kW-h anticipated. The surplus will be harnessed to reduce greatly the present gas-fired heating in the Master’s Lodge, the Chapel and Gonville Court. The search for our new Vice-Chancellor completed in September with the appointment of Professor Debbie Prentice, of Princeton University by the University Council. I chaired the Advisory Committee of fifteen people, including: externals, a postdoc, a student, someone from the University Information System, and several academics from a range of academic specialities and backgrounds. It was a very diverse committee which worked collaboratively and imaginatively. Debbie is a very experienced academic leader. She will have a three-month induction as a lead in to commencing as VC in July. The thirty-one independent colleges have complex interdependent relationships with the University through the Faculties and Departments as well as with the administrative centre. I am working with other Heads of House to identify areas on which we can support Debbie in her challenging role. Dr Maša Amatt, the Development Director and I travelled to see Caians on the West Coast of America in December, to the East Coast in April, and to events in London. Disappointingly, I managed to catch Covid (for the third time) and missed a trip to South East Asia in the autumn. Meeting Caians, whether their membership of the College was past or is present, is without doubt the best part of my role as Master.

The Chapel

Revd Dr Cally Hammond, Dean writes: Most of the adaptations for difficult times which I wrote about in last year’s edition of The Caian have now been discontinued. One challenge which does go on, though, is a Universitywide problem in staff recruitment. This has necessitated two changes to the Chapel routine on Sundays. It is not currently possible to staff brunch in Hall on Sunday mornings. This has always been an important part of Chapel life, cementing one kind of communion with another, Christian friendship with table fellowship. But chapelgoers still have their brunch. It is now at the Copper Kettle (opposite King’s), and it comes with posher options including a Turkish version of the full monty. The other effect of recruitment challenges is that dinner after Chapel is not, for the present, a formal occasion in Hall. That is a greater deprivation than a change of brunch venue and menu. I would like our visiting preachers to experience the occasion that is dining in Hall, all of us together, complete with grace and gowns and all the little nothings that add up to a rewarding something. Most of these visitors will have taken time off from other obligations, and engaged stand-ins, so that they can come and visit us to preach; and so that the Sunday-night congregation can have a pleasant change from listening to the Dean, or Dean’s Vicar, or (for 2022-3) acting Dean. I am not alone, I’m sure, in looking forward to the full return of our traditional pattern. One of the Church of England’s aboriginal practices, to which we sit fairly lightly in chapel nowadays, is prayers offered for the Sovereign. Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II got an honoured mention at every service of Sunday Evensong: ‘O Lord, save the Queen: and mercifully hear us when we call upon thee.’ I think we can say that seventy years’ worth of that petition has done its work. We still use the old Book of Common Prayer 1662 each Sunday evening, though it is somewhat older than that date implies. It was very lightly revised from the 1552 version of Archbishop Thomas Cranmer. The previous incarnation of our national prayer book, in 1549, looked more like the Roman rite in use before the Reformation. It is thanks to the 1549 book that we may place candles on the altar, but although the chapel has long since extended this to candlelight all along the building on both sides, it is unlikely to lead to the kind of controversial legal actions which marked nineteenth-century disputes about liturgical practice in the Church of England.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

I have evensong to thank for acquainting me, as a fresher at S. John’s College Oxford back in 1983, with the Prayer Book (or BCP) in all its glory. I enjoyed the stately language and lovely music more than the sermonising, which was sometimes dull, sometimes baffling; and on such occasions I turned instead to the text of the book. The 39 Articles of Religion at the end bore what even then I recognised as a Puritan stamp; though I have since found them an excellent aid to preparing people for confirmation. The rubrics were designed to clarify the meanings of actions in a way that made sense to people, and they are still a useful resource today. The service of baptism ‘for those of riper years’ was groundbreaking, the ‘churching of women’ perhaps less so. Only in BCP have I found (and needed in Caius chapel more than once) guidance on what to do when you are not sure if a person has been baptised or not. And it has been the BCP which has helped me when those who were sick asked me to pray with them; and when others were making their way through the gate of death into life eternal: mors ianua vitae, as it says on the crematorium catafalque (‘death is the door to life’). A book as full of wisdom and beauty as BCP 1662 needs no puff from me to recommend it. Yes, it is archaic, perhaps intentionally so, standing as it does at the genesis of artistic English prose. But there are two elements I would particularly commend. The first is a statement of aims and objectives, from the start of the Preface: It hath been the wisdom of the Church of England, ever since the first compiling of her Publick Liturgy, to keep the mean between the two extremes, of too much stiffness in refusing, and of too much easiness in admitting any variation from it. That aim of keeping the mean between two extremes owes as much to the Greek principle of ‘nothing to excess’ (ΜΗΔΕΝ ΑΓΑΝ) as it does to the Bible or the teaching of any Church. Inscribed on the temple of Apollo at Delphi it epitomised ancient wisdom, and was, like the BCP 1662, a teaching with a social as much as individual objective. Extremes and inflexibility damage social cohesion and unity of purpose. Compromise, tolerance, and co-operation are signs of a community determined to ‘keep the mean.’ The second text I would commend to interested Caians comes from near the end of BCP 1662. For the religious and non-religious, Christian and non-Christian, these are words of wisdom in the form of a prayer. It comes from Accession Service, and expresses a goal which our seventeenth-century forebears did well to aspire to, even if they were no better than we at realising it: Give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions Take away all hatred and prejudice, and whatsoever else may hinder us from godly union and concord...so we may henceforth be all of one heart, and of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth and peace.

FROM THE REGISTERS 2021-22 The Commemoration of Benefactors Sermon for 2021 was preached by Dr John CASEY, Fellow, re-presenting the final sermon of Dr John DONNE as Dean of S. Paul’s Cathedral in 1631: ‘Death’s Duel.’ The marriage of Harry JENKINS and Victoria WHITELEY was solemnized on 18 December 2021. Dr Perse’s Sermon was preached on 6 February 2022 by Sir Malcolm RIFKIND. A service of prayer and dedication after Civil Marriage was celebrated on 24 April 2022 for Lukas SEILER and Natasha FRICKER. A service of Confirmation and Holy Communion took place on 22 May 2022, the Rt Revd Graeme KNOWLES confirming James DARNTON and Amrit CASSIM. On Friday 9 September, in common with other Colleges of the University, the chapel bell tolled 96 times to mark the death of our late Sovereign Lady Queen Elizabeth II. The marriage of Adam McCARTHY and Breanna MARR was solemnized on 23 September 2022. The Dean’s Vicar was the Revd Dr Nicholas Thistlethwaite, sometime Chaplain of the College The Senior Chapel Clerk was Tineke HARRIS. The Junior Chapel Clerk was Edmond BRUCE. The first fieldfares appeared over Washpit Lane, Harlton on 9th January 2022. The first swifts were seen by the Dean over Caius Court on 15th May 2022.

The Choir (96 - 107)

Matthew Martin, Precentor, writes: I write this as I approach the end of my third year as Precentor at Caius. It feels very much like the end of my first year on account of all the disruption from April 2020 – the month I started in the role. That said, we have packed much into the schedule from Michaelmas 2021 and have gone some way to making up for lost time during the pandemic. The choir has gone from strength to strength in their principal Matthew Martin role of supporting the liturgy in the three regular weekly term-time services in Chapel – two Evensongs (sometimes Vespers on Tuesdays) and Eucharist – and we have also taken on various extra concerts, tours, radio broadcasts, plus a large-scale recording project. The Commemoration of Benefactors took place on Sunday 14 November – the first event of this nature since before the pandemic – and Carol Services saw the Chapel full to capacity. Again, this was a welcome sight (and sound) not seen before during my time here.

Precentor and Director of College Music, DoS in Music

The major extra event in the Michaelmas term 2021 was our trip to Buckfast Abbey, Devon for a live broadcast of Monastic Vespers for BBC Radio 3. This fell on the feast of the Immaculate Conception (December 8). The sequence featured plenty of plainsong Scott (withChristopher elaborate organ accompaniment) plus music by Stravinsky and Victoria. We Tutor for Admissions & Outreach stayed in one of the houses at the monastery for a few days and, whilst there, recorded another Choral Evening Prayer for later broadcast on 16 February 2022. For this, we commissioned Professor John Harper (University of Bangor) to write a new setting of The Litany (BCP 1662) which received its first performance during the service. There followed a dash back to Cambridge to honour our duties at the Perse Feast on December 9 and the Annual Gathering the following evening. The Lent Term started with an excellent vocal masterclass by one of our singing teachers, Kate Symonds-Joy (2002). We currently have two superb voice trainers Jennifer Phillips (David Lowe being the other) and they give regular individual vocal tuition to each Domestic Bursar & Choral Scholar and volunteer. My thanks, as always, go to them for their hard and Operations Director invaluable work. The highlights of the term included the special Choral Eucharist for Ash Wednesday, where we sang Allegri’s well-loved Miserere, and a visit to St George’s, Hanover Square in London. This was for the Caius Choir Alumni Evensong, at which former members of the choir were invited back to sing with the present members. In the margins of all this, my mind was turning to the preparation of a repertoire for our planned recording scheduled for July, the first since 2018. A few motets by Peter

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22 Stephen Turton RF:Physics

Philips and Richard Dering began to appear on the music list in anticipation of these forthcoming recording sessions. Later in term we celebrated a joint Evensong in Chapel with the Choir of Bromsgrove School plus an Evensong in one of our College livings – SS Peter and Paul, Lavenham – to say goodbye to the departing Rector, Stephen Earl. Both the Master and Dr David Summers attended. This happened the day after the Perse Feast (19 March), at which the choir sang the usual works by Charles Wood, and other songs and madrigals during dinner. At Lavenham, the Organ Scholars were able to take charge (they direct the choir from time to time during the term) as the Precentor was laid low with Covid. Although I was disappointed not to be there, these sorts of occasions are always a great opportunity for them to gain valuable experience, and I gather that they were a hit with the (many) parishioners who attended. While there were no extra tours or concerts during the Easter break, we still had two ‘lost’ Annual Gatherings on which to catch up (2 and 8 April), one with added Evensong and both with the usual choir contributions during the festivities. Summer plans dominated the Easter term as we continued work towards our recording patch and tour, with other highlights including a joint service with the Choir of Trinity College and the GCMS May Week concert. We are delighted that Caius Choir has recently signed with a new record label (Linn Records), and we had dates in the diary to record a disc with them of music by two exiled Catholics – Peter Philips (1560/11628) and Richard Dering (1580-1630) – who both left England during the Reformation to travel and work in Europe. Their music is fantastically colourful and texturally varied – English, yet betraying various continental influences – while also (rather unfairly) underrepresented on disc. This project involved a fair bit of research to source the most interesting and unknown repertoire, and we collaborated with the early music ensemble In Echo. The group provided a combination of eight instruments: old-style cornetts, trombones and various stringed instruments, all working with a portable Italian organ tuned to an unequal temperament of Quarter-comma meantone. What better place to fine-tune this programme than the beautiful island of Menorca, where we travelled to perform three concerts (mostly) of this music at the start of July for our summer tour! The singers stayed in the small town of Es Mercadel and performed to large and appreciative audiences in Ciutadella Cathedral, Santa Maria in Es Castell and Santa Maria, Mahon. There was plenty of time for sightseeing, beach visits, and, most importantly, rehearsal of these two composers’ music in the Arts Centre in Es Mercadel. After a successful tour, the choir touched down into Luton (delayed flight) during the early hours of 9 July and, after an essential lie-in back at College, put together Evensong and feast songs for the Annual Gathering that very same evening. The punishing schedule then continued into the following day when we journeyed via coach from Cambridge to the Gloucestershire village of Minchinhampton to embark on our four-day recording project in the beautiful church of Holy Trinity. The quiet

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

location and fantastic church acoustics (plus excellent pub) provided ideal ingredients for a wonderful time working with these ‘early’ instruments. The days were divided into three parts: a morning and evening session (three hours each) with the afternoons free to enjoy the sunshine and recharge voices. The disc is due out in mid-May 2023 and will be available on all streaming platforms (Spotify, iTunes etc.). It is a testament to the hard work of the group over the past year and I am extremely grateful to them all. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the various people who make what we do possible: Claire Wheeler (our Choir Administrator), Stephanie Waldron (Choir PR and Communications Assistant), and the Dean, The Reverend Dr Cally Hammond. I should also pay tribute to the Organ Scholar (Tammas Slater) and Assistant Organist (Kyoko Canaway) for their wonderful playing and support. The 2021/22 Caius choir comprised 23 singers: 13 Choral Scholars, 2 Lay-clerks, 4 Postgraduate Choral Scholars and 4 volunteers. There were 8 sopranos, 5 altos, 4 tenors and 7 basses. The Senior Choral Exhibitioner was Inigo Jones and the Librarian was Harry Elliot. Those holding named scholarships were as follows: Wilfrid Holland Organ Scholar – Kyoko Canaway Peter Walker Organ Scholar – Tammas Slater Margaret Chumrow Lay Clerk – Sebastian Blount Margaret Chumrow Lay Clerk – Oliver Jones Patrick Burgess Choral Scholar – Xoan Elsdon John Chumrow Choral Scholar – Robert Henderson Richard Hamilton Choral Scholar – Jacob Carey Peter and Thérèse Helson Choral Scholar – Louis Pettitt James Pitman Choral Scholar – Harry Elliot Sir Keith Stuart Choral Scholar – Inigo Jones John West Choral Scholar – Heidi Homewood

The View from the Organ Loft

By Kyoko Canaway, Assistant Organist I matriculated in 2018, beginning a four-year degree in Modern and Medieval Languages (French and German) and embarking on the start of my Organ Scholarship. It was a daunting prospect. Although I had spent a year as Organ Scholar at Chichester Cathedral, I felt that there was still much that I had to learn. I arrived fully prepared to be thrown in at the deep end, with the demands of my Modern Languages degree and the responsibilities of the Organ Scholarship. It was sink or swim and, luckily, I swam. Four years later, I now hold the position of Assistant Organist at Caius, a role which I greatly enjoy, and which would have been unthinkable to my eighteen-year-old self. The role of Assistant Organist offers the opportunity of working closely alongside the Precentor and Director of Music, supporting the development of the choir, and providing a steady accompaniment with the Organ Scholar on an almost daily basis. We divide responsibility the music for the week and prepare it in advance, so that when the choir turns up to rehearsals, they are helped rather than hindered by the organist upstairs. This allows me to explore numerous other playing opportunities, both within and beyond Cambridge. This year, I have particularly enjoyed the challenge of performing more solo recitals outside of Cambridge. While there are ample playing opportunities for me as Organ Scholar in Caius, I have found that the added freedom of the Assistant role has enabled me to perform slightly further afield, returning to perform in my hometown (Chichester), as well as venturing to London churches to participate in various recital series and projects. One special highlight was a recital in St Garlickshythe as part of the Orgelbüchlein project. J. S. Bach was one of the most prolific writers for organ, and his Orgelbüchlein includes the titles of 164 Lutheran chorales covering the Church Year. However, Bach himself only completed 46 of the chorales, and William Whitehead thus founded his modern-day Orgelbüchlein project to complete the remaining 118. I took part in the complete performance of these new works over a weekend in September. It was a brilliant opportunity to develop my solo playing outside of the comfort of Caius chapel. Alongside the platform that the Assistant role provides to take further soloistic opportunities, the role also brings with it some inspiring and in many ways unique opportunities to perform further afield with the choir. There are frequent tours abroad, and this not only takes us to some fascinating locations, but also gives us the chance to explore some more unusual music. The most recent and exciting example of this

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

was our tour to Menorca in July 2022. We used this as a chance to get to grips with the music of Peter Phillips and Richard Dering, two English-born composers who fled to mainland Europe to escape persecution as Catholics in the reign of Elizabeth I. Our immersion in Spanish culture and the chance to be a part of a Mass at the Cathedral in Ciutadella conveyed much more immediately the brightness and the beauty that the music hoped to capture, as well as the wealth of tradition that we were beginning to tap into. This was all invaluable on our return to England, where we recorded a CD of the music of Phillips and Dering, which is to be released later this year. It was a fascinating to get to know this music, and from an organist’s perspective, I was also extremely lucky to be able to play continuo organ alongside the ensemble In Echo. Not only was I working closely with the choir and Matthew, but it was also thrilling to be able to play alongside musicians who bring this music to life on an almost daily basis. It was a privilege to be granted this opportunity. The organ can seem like a distant and daunting instrument. Yet the rigorous approach needed to become comfortable at the console is something that makes it extremely rewarding, both as a solo instrument, where you can explore the different colours and sound-worlds available to you, but also more broadly. In my time at Cambridge, I have found that playing the organ has offered me an all-round musical education on both a practical and theoretical level. The ability to listen to a choir in a different part of the building, accompanying them fluently whilst managing an instrument that can be quite temperamental leads to a daily practice that must be thorough and well-rounded in its approach. As a result, I have found that I have developed several other skills which I never consciously set out to acquire. That has been invaluable this year, as I have been able to explore other musical opportunities at Cambridge beyond organ playing. I have particularly enjoyed delving into the world of opera, an area of music that, much like choir, combines text and music. I began where I felt most comfortable, playing harpsichord for a production of Handel’s Semele. It is obviously very different to the organ, yet the familiarity of the keyboard and the instruction to accompany singers was something that did not feel a million miles away from the world of a chapel organist. Since then, I have branched out slightly more. I was assistant musical director the Cambridge University Opera Society’s production of The Magic Flute and next term, I am looking forward to the challenge of fulfilling the same role for Handel’s Rodelinda, which we have chosen to be the Caius opera. This is something that I would not have thought possible for myself when I first stepped into the Chapel as a first year and I believe it is in large part due to the musical education I have received, first as Organ Scholar and then as Assistant Organist. I am extremely grateful for all the opportunities that have been offered to me at Caius and I am fully aware of how lucky I am to have been here with the support and care

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

that is put into the musical education of the choir and Organ Scholars. The organ can seem like a forbidding instrument, but it offers an invaluable musical education that has been central to my time at Cambridge. I am looking forward to another term as Assistant Organist at Caius: it has been extremely enjoyable so far, and I am excited to see what else this role will bring!

The Gonville & Caius Student Union

The Junior Combination Room (GCSU) Georgia Brown, Vice-President, writes: We had all lived through a year of coronavirus by the time the 2021-22 GCSU committee was elected. We had our first meetings online, communicating through our little Zoom boxes. It wasn’t until after many months, after careful risk management and the incredible vaccination programme, that we were gradually able to build up to meeting in person again. By the end of our tenure, we were celebrating our year’s successes in our newly reopened College bar, something which seemed unimaginable when we were first elected. I am immensely proud of the 2021-2022 GCSU committee’s work. In between reacting to the numerous coronavirus challenges thrown our way, we were ambitious reformers and made what I believe to be impactful change to the College. George Skeen (Vice President 2020-21 and President 2021-22) and I would like to thank all the committee for their work and commitment to bettering the student experience at Caius. We would also like to thank Saba Shirvani (MCR President) and Ayat Abdurahman (MCR Vice President) for all their sage advice, unwavering dedication, and constant support of the GCSU. We also campaigned for the Progress Pride flag to be flown from the College flagpole as it had done for several years. I am incredibly proud of how the GCSU, MCR, students, and some staff and Fellows mobilised against the General Meeting of the Fellows’ decision in Lent 2022 to fly only the College flag. Special thanks are owed to Lily Danson (Treasurer) for organising the purchase of Progress Pride flags to facilitate the student demonstration of support for LGBTQ+ people. It was amazing to see Progress Pride flags displayed in student windows, at Formal Hall, and in the College bar. I further thank everyone who signed the GCSU’s open letter to the Council which I believe helped reverse the General Meeting’s decision only to fly the College flag. I hope future committees will make the most of the new voting system for student-decided flag days, and I am confident that we will continue to make Caius a more just, welcoming, and safe space for all. As recent political events have demonstrated, the rights and liberties of minorities are never guaranteed; I believe that it is our moral imperative to play our part in the perennial fight for social justice. Predictably, COVID posed significant welfare challenges, and our welfare and liberation officers did excellent jobs during this time. The GCSU Mental Health Report drew attention to these challenges and recommended specific actions the College could take to further support students. I am very pleased to say that the College acted on several

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

recommendations, including the introduction of a College counsellor. I am also thankful for Caius Library for helping us set up ‘Shelf-Help’, GCSU owned books on welfare topics. The welfare officers, Quaid Forbes and Natalie Johns, and their co-opts did an incredible job supporting students day-to-day and through specific welfare events. Puppy therapy in the Harvey Court JCR was a particular highlight! Ciara Mayers (Women and Non-Binary Officer) also did fantastic work supporting the College’s celebration of International Women’s Day and organising donations for a period poverty campaign. Esther Oloyede (BME Officer), Nora Bennani-Kemmoun (Class Act Officer) and Josh Osman (LGBTQ+ Officer) equally deserve note for their dedication to helping students and driving their own initiatives to make Caius a more inclusive place. Grace Atkinson (Access Officer) tirelessly worked to coordinate access events which help prospective students see that Cambridge, and Caius, can very well be part of their future. I am very proud of these officers’ work, and I thank them for the progress they made in their respective areas. As the country began to re-open from lockdown, our GCSU officers got busy organising social events to bring us all back together in person again. A big thank you to Georgina Stracey (Publicity Officer) who captured everything effectively on our social media! To kick off the 2021 academic year, Famke Veenstra-Ashmore organised a great Freshers’ week with lots of Caius merch. The ENTS team (Raphael McMahon, Anna Western, Ruairi Coyne, and Emma Warley) did a brilliant job organising BOPs, while our Food and Bar officers (Natalia Emsley and Emma Radford) reintroduced Saturday brunch and re-opened the Caius bar. The reopening required much organisation and commitment from student workers. It was brilliant to see the bar open and busy once again! Another highlight was Moby Wells (Green Officer Co-opt) starting the Gonville & Caius Allotment Society which was an immense success and brought people together on bright Sunday mornings. Another thanks to Moby and to Kim Worrall, our fantastic Housing Officer, for supporting on the ‘Buy One Give One Free’ charity initiative for local food banks. I am very proud of how the GCSU committee worked together to grow the Caius community over our tenure. Finally, on this point, a special vote of thanks to George for organising our Old Courts JCR refurbishment – no more old sofas! The GCSU could not have functioned without the work of Cynthia Shen (Secretary) and Lily Danson (Treasurer). Lily effectively handled our budget and made sure each College society was correctly funded, while Cynthia was our master organiser and worked endlessly to organise meetings, hustings, and voting. Cynthia also introduced the role of International Officer and amended the constitution to allow non-binary Caians to run for welfare officer, which was previously not possible. George and I thank both Lily and Cynthia for all their work in keeping the GCSU running without a hitch. As we handed our roles over to the new committee in February 2022, both George and I were proud of what the GCSU achieved over that year – which goes far beyond what this report can mention. A final thanks, also, to all the College officers and staff who supported bringing GCSU initiatives to life. The GCSU 2021-22 was brilliant, and we wish every future success to every committee which succeeds us.

The Middle Combination Room (GCSU) It is a joy, after a few years of hiatus, to be able to offer a report of our year in the MCR for The Caian once again. We were of course here the whole time, but the independent nature of postgraduate life, coupled with the COVID-19 Pandemic and its aftertaste, can all too easily create the perception that the MCR is something of a College hinterland; a body over there, in the little room in the corner of Gonville Court, or in housing around its satellite site in the basement of 6 Harvey Road. While I’m sure some might claim ironic potential in the sun-free, basement location of areas designated for research students, the MCR have been far from hidden this year. Rather, the gradual recovery from pandemic life was taken as an opportunity for the Caius graduate community both to assert its distinctive character, and at the same time strengthen its fondness for active participation in the wider Caius community. It has been my privilege to be part of this effort on the MCR Committee as its President for the 2021-2022 year alongside Franz Fuchs as Vice President, and I am grateful to all of those who have made our year so rewarding. The Caius MCR elects new personnel a few weeks earlier than the JCR, with a new Committee in place by 1 February each year. The years of social distancing across 20202021 had clearly left both the wider MCR and its Committee members with much pent-up energy, and there was a sense of restlessness in the air as we started. A few changes could be made immediately: we returned to a regular schedule of Open Meetings and circulated the minutes of Committee meetings to the membership via email. At the first of the former, the role of Access Officer was added to the MCR Committee, and the post was graciously occupied by former Welfare Officer Liana Hardy. This brought the MCR into step with the JCR and underlined our commitment to the all too overlooked matter of postgraduate outreach. Among her noteworthy achievements, Liana facilitated the MCR’s hosting of the inaugural SHARE Access Scheme for non-Oxbridge students during the summer, the success of which is evidenced by a second round of the scheme planned for summer 2023. A series of forms were also created for weekly distribution in the MCR email bulletin: one for free coffee and cake with a Welfare Officer; one for loan of the MCR’s sports equipment (which was audited and supplemented by the tireless Adam Alderton); and one, the socalled Welfairy (real name unknown, of course), to send a bag of chocolate anonymously with a note to a fellow Caian via their pigeonhole. To these in Michaelmas Term was added a form for free coffee and cake with an LGBTQ Officer, a welcome contribution from Mingyuan Wan and Eleanor Zhang. Such efforts were part of a broader theme of increased Welfare visibility, and our Welfare Officers (over time, Finn Kinsler O’Sullivan, Floris Blok, Anna Leach, Elin Falla, and Sionna Hurley-O’Kelly) made sure that a return to regular Welfare teas kept our members happy with seemingly unlimited supplies of baked goods. Our first MCR party, a Valentine’s Day get-together for food and drink in Harvey Road, benefitted especially from the ebullience of our American contingent: namely, the

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Social Secretaries Mikaela Krim and Vinzent Wesselmann. Their energy was galvanised (and on occasion tempered) by fellow Social Team members: at various times Liam Webb, George Carter, Aoibh O’Connor, Max Rees, and Binu Perera, as well as our Freshers Reps (Finn Kinsler O’Sullivan and Rajan Lal, fond of alliterative epithets for their roles in emails). This combined team, or parts of it, would go on to host our Thursday Port Nights in the Old Courts, a critical part of the week which runs after the popular Thursday formal slot, where postgraduates are given exclusive use of the Gallery in Hall. The group also added a countless number of successful summer barbecues, festive treats, and indeed the celebrated Re-Freshers Week to the MCR Calendar; the latter a supplement to our signature Freshers’ Fortnight at the start of the academic year. The Dining Team were true stars in 2021-2022: Rajan Lal (wearing his other hat) was joined at various times by Ujjawal Kumar, Hugo Heagren, Alice Beardmore, Lucy Westmacott, and Atharva Argade-Miskin, as well as by Hank Ruehl, another indefatigable member of the MCR’s American caucus, whose manifesto assurance that he was indeed a ‘lifelong consumer of food’ hopefully reflects their gentle good humour. They planned several successful Superhalls (four-course, postgraduate-only meals held twice a term), including for St. Patricks Day and Christmas, a Halloween ‘Spookerhall’, and the summer-themed Superfloral (a particularly strong effort of pun craft). The MCR have started a tradition at these meals of thanking the staff individually by name in closing speeches, which has improved ties between students and those on the employee roster who make such experiences possible. The MCR this year also oversaw the introduction of formal mechanisms for including members’ partners at large events (giving more reality to their ‘Honorary Members’ status in our Constitution). Ashray Gunjur, our Partners and Families Officer (who had made the trek to Harvey Road with his wife all the way from Melbourne), also pushed successfully for MCR members’ children to be permitted to dine in the Gallery on Tuesdays. His barbecues for this section of the Caius community (and others too), coupled with his almost parent-like role for some of the Committee’s more frenzied members, have been one of the MCR’s most treasured assets. Integration within the wider Caius community was enhanced by several other personnel, not least by Oli Powell and Joe Turner. As MCR-SCR Officers, they saw a return to more regular MCR-SCR talks (a paired combination of one postgraduate and one Fellow, each with a fifteen-minute presentation and questions before wine and cheese). Oli and Joe also restored High Table dining for graduates chosen via ballot, and they leave their posts with the arrangements in place for a Postgraduate Presentation Day in March 2023, the sessions of which will be chaired by Fellows. These good relations with the SCR were also developed via the introduction of the Supervision Shadowing Scheme, where Fellows and MCR members were paired up so that the latter could ‘sit-in’ on supervisions before discussing teaching methods (with the realised hope that social relations might be improved along the way). The sense of bridging gaps was made even more palpable at the other ‘end’ of the College by our

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

decision to incorporate fourth year undergraduate scientists and Part III students into the MCR as members from September 2022. Part-time students will now also join us from 2023 onwards. In terms of our community beyond the books, the labs, and the hot laptops, various welcome changes have been made to our living environment. New equipment, from drinks-making facilities to sound equipment and portable outdoor furniture was added to the MCR stock at both Harvey Road and Old Courts, alongside new bike shelters at 1-2 Harvey Road. These efforts were spurred by our Green & Housing Officer (now President), Tejas Rao, who also introduced the ‘Graiun Caiun’ section to the weekly Newsletter with news and events related to his brief. Food composting bins were also rolled out across postgraduate properties that requested them; the mothballed Computer Room in 6 Harvey Road turned into a Xerox Room; and the MCR Picture Guild, a large stock of artwork untouched since before 2019, was re-catalogued (including works assumed lost), added to, and opened again for loans to MCR members. The 2022-2023 Committee are lucky to have several continuing members to lean on for their creative talent, their enthusiasm, and their generosity. While Franz and I, alongside Secretary Rebecca Brown and Treasurer Finlay Gerrand, might each be returning to the full-time PhD life (‘that old chestnut’), we wish every success to Tejas Rao as President, Essi Harbord and Atharva Argade-Miskin as joint Vice Presidents, and to all the other members of the new Committee. Their commitment to enhancing the time at Caius for all our postgraduate students, and for strengthening ties with other Caians new and old, is already palpable. My thanks again to every member of the Committee, and to every member of the wider Caius community, from students to Fellows and staff, for their work this year. It has been a wonderful time to be a Caian!

Amalgamated Clubs and Societies 2021-22

Allotment Society The Gonville and Caius Allotment Society was founded in October 2021, and it has already created an enthusiastic community of gardeners in the College. As well as growing a community, we have succeeded in cultivating a variety of produce, such as rocket, garlic, carrots, radishes, potatoes, and beans. Our very first event was to dig the allotment site. We had a lot of support, and we were able to make light work of removing lots of turf and churning up the soil ready for the year. We then met on Sunday mornings throughout the year to maintain the allotment. In Michaelmas, we were able to experiment by planting a variety of plants and seeing which would survive the winter. Broad beans and garlic were planted at the right time of year, and so had started to grow successfully by the end of term. We also planted rocket, peas, and a selection of herb plants. In a temporary attempt to keep the soil warm, we reused clear plastic bags to cover the soil and trap the heat. Good quality netting was then ordered to help with this and should last for many years to come. Thanks to the amazing kindness of Sarah and Claire we went to see their fantastic allotment at Clare Hall! This allotment was started last year and has had massive great with a wide assortment of plants! They are currently growing leeks, strawberries, Brussels sprouts and more!! What we really liked about the Clare Hall allotment was the successful use of low-cost techniques. For example, they used wheelie bins for compost, collected all the leaves in a very well-designed leaf composter, and used tent pegs to hold down fleeces. In Lent, we continued to care for the plants planted in Michaelmas, and were also able to plant much more, as the planting season for a variety of other things began. We successfully planted lettuce, radishes, potatoes, and white mustard. We also had several events! A few of our members took a trip to the Empty Common Allotment for the University Allotments Fair. There were multiple talks, seed swaps, leaflets, and the chance to meet loads of great people. Two talks grabbed our attention, the first about natural methods to improve nitrate levels (legumes!) and phosphates (white lupin!). The other talk was on permaculture and how to do it.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Stepan Slavin, a tutor and member of the Community Engagement team from the Cambridge City Council, gave a talk to us about how green spaces around Cambridgeshire are being utilised to provide community gardens, and talked us through the benefits and challenges of such a project. We also took a trip to the Botanic Gardens, where we learned how to practice wildlifefriendly gardening. We were given a guided tour of the gardens, and learned many interesting facts, such as that bees are attracted to purple/blue flowers, butterflies to yellow, and birds to red. WE also learned that using peat compost negatively impacts the environment for no scientific benefit to the plants. We were also, rather counterintuitively, discouraged from the idea of getting a beehive to accompany the allotment, as a beehive supports only one species of bee, and so reduces the effect of competing pollinators. We also had fun in the gardens, particularly the scented garden where everything within has a lovely scent! Easter Term brought harvest time! We enjoyed a very successful time, both planting and harvesting! Our top harvests were radish, garlic, rocket, lettuce, and Pak Choi flowers. We have also left many of the plants in the ground and observed them as they flowered and went to seed. Next year, we hope to continue the successes of the allotment, having learned from our mistakes. We intend to plant garlic, rocket, carrots, radishes, and potatoes again, as they have done very well and fit nicely within the terms. We have also learned that beans attract many aphids, so we must be careful if planting these again. More root vegetables are encouraged next year, as these seem to have done the best this year. We all look forward to the growth of the allotment society! Committee members were: President: Moby Wells Social Secretary: Anya Williams Treasurer: Evan Thomas Publicity Officer: Will Bajwa

Badminton Club Caius Badminton represents the College in the University badminton leagues. We have three teams: two in the open league and another in the women’s league. We run regular training sessions for team members to practise playing together (the league is entirely a doubles format, and this allows us to get used to playing with regular partners.) We also have more casual sessions which are attended by people who are interested in playing badminton and perhaps later joining one of our teams (the players are mixed around during the year to give ourselves the best chances while allowing as many interested members to play as possible.)

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

This year we have also started having various socials. We have had two pub socials, a bowling social, a picnic and a BBQ with the other Caius racket teams. In Michaelmas we had a badminton social followed by a pub trip with Pembroke Badminton, and in Lent we had a social with Magdalene Badminton in the Caius Bar. Our Stash Officer organised a very popular stash order this year, providing the members with an opportunity to get some really cool team shirts, as well as hats, hoodies, shorts, fleeces, and sweatshirts. This year we have had two quite successful seasons. Our women’s team managed to top the women’s league in Michaelmas and came a very close second in Lent. Our open teams did not have such good fortunes. The first team comfortably stayed in Division 2 in Michaelmas but narrowly lost out and were demoted at the end of Lent after a season of close matches. The seconds team managed to maintain their position in Division 5 of 7 in both terms, coming close to promotion in Michaelmas before an unlucky match at the end of term. Unfortunately, we were unable to field a team for Cuppers this year since most of our team were very busy throughout Lent. We hope to make a strong return to Cuppers next year. Our incoming team of captains have some exciting plans for the next academic year. We hope that a new, earlier training time on Sunday mornings will attract better attendance and subsequently help us build up a stronger team. The new women’s captain is hoping to continue the successes of our current women’s team by attracting new recruits in October. We also have some strong players returning from their Year Abroad, so we hope Caius will become a force to be reckoned with in the league. We also hope to continue organising socials, which have proved very popular this year. Within the college rackets community, we have suggested a mini sports tournament, such as table tennis, which many are keen to make happen. Our socials with teams from other Colleges have also been very successful this year, helping form a strong team bond while keeping the league friendly and enjoyable. The new captains are keen to arrange more of these, either with Pembroke and Magdalene again or with other Colleges.

Basketball Caius Basketball Society is a joint basketball club with Clare college. We cater to all skill levels and genders and compete against other Colleges in the College Basketball League. We are currently in the second division (out of 5) and have stabilized after losing some players in previous years. One thing that stands out about basketball at Caius (and Clare) is that we are a mixed-gender team. This has been a great success, with lots of interest from Caius basketball players; we even have two from the University team! We are determined to continue this policy of inclusiveness. In this year’s Cuppers, we unfortunately got knocked out in the round of 16. However, we had considerable success in the College League in Lent, winning more than half of our games. This was quite impressive, considering that more than half of our roster consisted of freshers or people who had never played basketball before coming to university. In other news this year, we secured dedicated club equipment (basketballs, both size 6 and 7, training bibs, some cones) and we implemented some more rigorous training regimes to focus on individual skill development of all our players. During Lent, we also collaborated with Christ’s College to improve our training styles and had some friendly scrimmages over the weekends. In 2022, we aim to organise more team events to improve group coordination (nights out, bowling, etc.) and perhaps secure some stash. Due to the courts at Kelsey Kerridge being out of service during Michaelmas (they are replacing the hoops due to safety concerns) we also need to secure a new location for (bi)weekly trainings. Currently, we are looking at Leys School near the Engineering Department as a solution. The CUBBC society has let us know that the matches will largely be moved to the USC in response to KK unavailability.

Big Band Society Caius Big Band often works in conjunction with the Gonville & Caius Music Society (GCMS), but it is independent of it. It comprises: 2 alto saxophones; 2 tenor saxophones (with optional clarinet); 1 baritone saxophone; 4 trumpets; 2 trombones; 1 bass trombone; keyboards; drums; electric guitar; bass guitar; optional vocals (we had three permanent vocalists this year). Membership of the band is not limited to Caians, and this year membership also included students from Homerton, Jesus, St. John’s, Newnham, Hughes Hall, Sidney Sussex and Trinity. The band usually met once a week for two hours to practice old repertoire and work on new pieces. This year we moved away from more ‘academic’ jazz/big band sets to

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

include more popularly recognisable pieces, including more vocals, often arrangements of pop music. This was particularly enjoyable for the band members: it’s always more fun to play to a room full of people dancing rather than talking! The band had many gigs this year, which made the year more enjoyable than last year, when such opportunities were severely limited due to the pandemic. The band played at each of the GCMS’s termly College concerts and performed at each of the bops organised by the GCSU. The band played at the Law Lent Gala and had separate auditions for May Balls. The band finished the year on a high, playing at May Balls in Caius, Jesus, Hughes Hall, and Pembroke. The band’s new keyboard was certainly put to good use! Caius Big Band will hope to expand (or to become even Bigger!), improve and increase its repertoire over the next year, as well as play at many more gigs and May Balls. Thanks goes to the GCMS, the GCSU, and the Bursary for enabling the band to run and perform throughout the year, and the band can’t wait to do much more music-making next year Committee members were: President: Gabriel Corrigan Musical Director: Douglas Brion Treasurer: Gabriel Corrigan

Board Game Society The Board Game Society was started in October 2013 and has approximately twenty members in college, predominately in the JCR community. Every week we will get around 8-12 members turning up to play games from 7pm to 11pm; we also hold an all-day board games event at the end of each term. We normally play a shorter game to start with such as Coup, Avalon, or Decrypto, then a longer game such as Betrayal at the House on the Hill, Blood Rage, or Colt Express. We are a casual gaming society that welcomes anyone who wishes to play, regardless of prior board gaming experience, and try to make sure different types of board games are played each week to suit everyone’s preferences. Some weeks have a particular theme, such as dice, deck builders, literal ‘board’ games etc. The society currently owns fifty games. Our weekly meetings generally attract a good turnout, but we notice that Freshers don’t really get involved. Next year we intend to make ourselves better known to them. Some games tend not to be played during the weekly meetings because they take too long, so we might try re-running spin offs such as the informal Springfield Root Club that took place during 2020-2021. Since the pandemic, we have also held weekly online board games sessions, and these will probably also run during the vacations.

Boat Club Caius Boat Club has some one hundred current student members, both undergraduate and postgraduate, both experienced oarsmen/women and those who learned to row at Caius. Almost two centuries old, it is currently the largest club in Caius. Over recent decades the club has risen to become the most successful Cambridge College boat club (holding Mays headship, the #1 position, 41% of years since 1998); and is also one of the largest College boat clubs as well (currently tied for the most crews competing in May Bumps 2022). The boat club is currently sponsored by Humphrey Cobbold (1983). In Lent Bumps this year, seven of the nine Caius crews qualified to race, which made Caius joint top among the Colleges. The following results were achieved by the crews: W4: +0 (from 60th to 60th); M3: +1 (from 60th to 59th); W3: +2 (from 53rd to 51st); M2: +3 (from 24th to 21st); W2: +3 (from to 33rd to 36th); M1: +1 (from 3rd to 2nd); W1: +4 (from 9th to 5th). In May Bumps this year, all eight current Caius crews qualified to race, which again made Caius the joint top among the College. The following results were achieved by the crews: W5: -2 (from 72nd to 74rd); W4: +0 (from 63rd to 63rd); M3: +2 (from 52nd to 50th); W3: +4 (from 54th to 50th); M2: +3 (from 23rd to 20th); W2: +4 (from 33rd to 29th); M1 retained their headship: and W1: +2 (from 4th to 2nd), chased Newnham hard but had to settle for second place in the First Division. Since the start of the year there have been many other races with strong results. The large intercollegiate race at the end of Michaelmas term, the Fairbairn Cup, saw the following set of results for each novice and senior crew in their respective divisions: NW3 = 1st; NM2 = 3rd; NW2 = 1st; NM1 = 1st; NW1 = 1st; M2 = 1st; W2 = 1st; M1 = 2nd; W1 =: 2nd. Second places were also achieved by four members of W1 racing in the fours category and by a mixed Men’s/Women’s 3rd crew racing in the eights category. Beyond this race and Bumps, there have also been several smaller races in Cambridge, with the following combined set of results: Term

Several Caius rowers competed as members of the University squads, some of whom learnt to row at Caius. In the Lightweight Boat Races, both Cameron Mackenzie and Catherine King were victorious in their respective races, while in the Boat Races themselves, Bronya Sykes (president of the CUBC women’s squad) won as part of the record setting blue boat. Reef Boericke and George Hawkswell both raced in the men’s reserve crew Goldie, and Vera Kunz and Dan Toy were both among their squad’s spares. Several Caius rowers have also rowed as part of the development squads in the most recent term, some racing for them in BUCS. Another significant development is the recent purchase of a new boat for our M1 crew: the Martin Wade was bought with donations made by boat club alumni and contributions from our sponsor. Looking ahead, the club hopes to have a successful remainder of the Summer 2022 season. We are proud to count three sets of blades for women and retained Mays Headship for M1.

M1 and W1 will both be hoping to qualify for Henley Royal Regatta. W1 hopes to compete in the first ever Island Challenge Cup for women’s academic eights, and the men hope to continue their streak of qualifying for the Temple Challenge Cup for men’s academic eights. Next year the club hopes to again be the largest college club on the Cam, and with a strong top-end it is very possible for Caius to hold all four headships, the first time in university history that any College has achieved this. As previously mentioned, the club is also adding Welfare Officers to the committee, who will undergo training at the start of Michaelmas term, to help ensure the wellbeing of all students in the club. Boat Club committee members 20221-22 were: Captain of Boats: Joe Nash Men’s Vice Captain: Daphne Argyropoulos Women’s Vice Captains: Emma Radford Michelle Crees Junior Treasurer: Etienne Dean Secretary: Liv Conway Coxes’ Captain: Ben Carter Social Secretaries: Chung Chan, Ellie Nanni, Josh Hare, Thaqif Aris Training Camp Officer: Mila Marcheva Kit Officers: Dom Vasey Ed O’Connor Health and Safety Officer: Owain Bates Communications Officer: Jamie Webb Men’s Lower Boat Captains: Ben Boys, Ethan St. Catherine Women’s Lower Boat Captains: Charley Craig, Megan Peters Alumni Officer: Henry Bennett

Brooke Society The Brooke Society is the current names of the Caius History Society. Founded in 1906 and run by the students for the students, the society aims to foster a culture of community among Caius historians. The Society is named in memory of Caius historians Christopher and Rosalind Brooke. Christopher was the Dixie Professor of Ecclesiastical History and Life Fellow after he became emeritus; Rosalind was also a medieval historian. After sixty-two years of marriage, Rosalind passed away in 2014, and Christopher the year after. The past year has been an eventful, engaging, and enriching one. At the start of Michaelmas Term, we hosted the first in-person talk since the pandemic began, with Dr Dan Larsen delivering a lecture titled ‘Friendly Spying: American Peacemakers and British Codebreakers, 1914-1917’. Drawing on his recent book, Dan told the story of

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Prime Minister Asquith’s battles with British intelligence in his attempts to end the First World War. We had a great turnout of around a dozen people. Later in term, Dr Caroline Goodson came to talk about ‘Plants and Animals in Early Medieval Rome; history from the non-human’, which again had a great turnout from students and Fellows alike and prompted a lively Q&A session afterwards. To conclude Michaelmas Term and the year, we hosted the annual Brooke Society Festive Drinks social, in which we gathered in the Long Room to drink mulled wine, eat mince pies, wear festive jumpers, and relax after a term of hard work. We had an excellent turnout of around twenty people. We kicked off the New Year with the annual History Dinner. Thanks to the excellent organisation of President Jess Black, the event was a rousing success, featuring a photoshoot in front of the Gate of Honour, hilarious speeches from the Presidents and Peter Mandler, and of course, a sumptuous dinner. A few weeks later, Professor Nora Berend delivered the first talk of 2022 entitled ‘The Wondrous Life of a Medieval Crown’. Unfortunately, due to rising COVID cases at the time, we concluded that it would be best to conduct the event over Zoom. However, there was a clear interest from those who attended based on the in-depth Q&A session afterwards, so we feel the virtual setting overall did not affect either the quality of the presentation or the enthusiasm of the audience. We concluded the Lent term with the annual Brooke Society Careers Panel. We invited four Caius History alumni back to the College to talk to current students about their careers and lives after graduation. The guests included Sam Rhodes (Frontline social worker), Rupert Ainley (Foreign Office), Amy Harrison (International Development Professional), and Harriet Jones-Fenleigh (Barrister and Partner at Norton Rose Fullbright). All the guests were incredibly inspiring, and willing to answer all our questions. For the final Brooke Society talk of the academic year, we invited Professor Samita Sen back to the Society to talk about: ‘Dangerous Liaisons: Love in the Time of Terrorism in India’. It was a fascinating talk which provided an equally fascinating change of perspective compared to the three previous more Euro-centric lectures we had hosted. The year concluded with the annual Brooke Society Garden Party/BBQ, which was great fun as usual and the perfect way to see historians off into the summer holidays. The Society’s Post-Grad Secretary, Zoë Jackson also organised some excellent events for the post-grad historians at Caius throughout the year. In Lent Term, she hosted the annual Graduate Research Evening, inviting three Caius PhD students to talk to Society members about their research, which ranged from

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Byzantine constitutional ideas to trans-border mobility in Russian Turkestan. In Easter Term, she organised the annual Brooke Society Post-Grad Careers Panel, inviting Morgan Ring, Dr Ben Bronnert Walker, and Michael Taylor – three alumni who work ‘conventional’ jobs in government, medicine, and accounting, but who have also published historical writings. Looking ahead, the Brooke Society aims to continue its mission of bringing Caius historians together through engaging talks, events, and socials. One highlight next year will be a talk by Antiques Roadshow legend and Caius alumnus Lars Tharp. We also plan to organise some historical debating events next year, in addition to the traditional guest lectures, which would be sure to further encourage historical debate among students. Committee members were: Presidents – Kieran Holder, Ryan Farnaby, Thaqif Ari Secretaries – Margaux Riley, Max Swillingham, Charlie Chamberlain Post-Grad Secretary – Zoë Jackson

Cricket Club The Caius Cricket Club caters to players of all abilities, from University Blues standard to individuals who have never played the sport before but want to get involved during their time at Caius. We are regularly able to put out a First XI and have a dedicated squad of over twenty. We have probably seen over thirty different faces at training over the year, many of whom were new. It has historically been one of the more successful Cambridge College cricket teams, and this year proved no different. The team reached the Semi-finals of Cuppers, and narrowly missed out on a place in the final. After posting an impressive total of 201 in 20 overs against Fitzwilliam, a truly superb innings from their Captain and Blues batsman took victory away from us. Nevertheless, finals day represented a great day of cricket, with many Caians turning up to Fenners to show their support for the team. In addition to Cuppers, we played friendlies against other colleges and annual longer format fixtures against touring sides. Aside from the semi- final we did not lose a single game this year. After the results that the team has achieved in the last couple of years, two consecutive Cuppers semi-finals, Caius Cricket is currently in a very good place. Looking ahead to the 2022/2023 academic year, we expect to welcome a new cohort of freshers to the club. We are fortunate that not many of our members are leaving this year, and so with some new additions, we hope to continue the success of Caius Cricket in Cuppers next year. The funding that the Club received this year from the GCSU was instrumental in purchasing much-needed new kit and equipment for the team. Traditionally, cricket has

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

not been known as the most accessible of sports owing to the amount of kit required, but the funding the club receives and our decision to use it to purchase club kit, we are able to ensure that there is no barrier to individuals who wish to get involved in the sport. With the funding and support of the GCSU, we hope that this will continue to be the case. Committee members were: Captain: Rohan Odedra President/Vice-Captain: Samir Sardana

Culinary Society The Caius Culinary Society was established in Michaelmas term of 2021 by Tachakrit Tachatirakul and its activities include cooking demonstrations, ingredient tasting sessions or other related competitions. The society may allow members to widen their culinary horizons by having a chance to experience food or techniques not commonly found in Cambridge and in college. Cooking demonstrations are done by our members, usually the president or anyone else who volunteers. We explore the recipe of the dish, the cooking technique. The demonstrator should also be explaining the role of each ingredient and where possible allow a taster of the individual ingredient. It is then explained how the ingredients come together to produce the final dish. After cooking, all members who attend will get a chance to sample the dish. The recipes are sent out to members afterwards. There are no Cuppers or competitions so far. We hosted four events in Michaelmas: three cooking demonstrations and one food tasting session. In Lent we hosted one cooking demonstration. Owing to the COVID situation, activities were suspended soon after the beginning of Lent term. We are hoping to recruit a new committee and perhaps to increase the number of committee members. With enough interest, we would like to hold a cooking competition in Caius. Committee members were: President and Treasurer: Tachakrit Tachatirakul Secretary: Tanai Chotanaphuti

Feminism & Gender Society The Caius Feminism & Gender Society aims to create an inclusive and diverse space to discuss intersectional feminism and gender issues in the College and beyond. We often collaborate with feminism societies at other Colleges to create a broader range of topics and/or issues for discussion.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

The highlight of the various events FemGen has held this year was the free distribution of menstrual cups to all menstruating people in Caius. This was a great success, and hopefully something that we can continue to implement in future years. Aside from this, we had many socials and creative events, including the collaging night illustrated above. We also collaborated with the Pink Week committee to organise the Pink Week Formal Hall and some informative talks. Members were: Ella Campbell Victoria Chapman Claudia Davey Rowena Field Lucy Maxwell (F&G members contd) Holly Pritchard Tabitha Rubens Sophia Wiginton

Football Club The Gonville & Caius Football Club is one of the main sport clubs at the college, with three men’s teams, and a women’s team and a non-binary team. This guarantees access to footballers of all abilities and identities. The club has always emphasised inclusiveness and having fun, and so all the men’s teams, regardless of ability, have always trained together to foster a close-knit and friendly community. Furthermore, we run many socials throughout the year, which helps many club members feel welcome and part of an adaptable wider community, without feeling pressured to play football every weekend. In the Cuppers competition, the Men’s 3s were Cup Winners. The Men’s 1s finished 6th (out of 10) in the Premier League; the Men’s 2s finished 10th (out of 10) in Division 3; and the Men’s 3s finished 4th (out of 10) in Division 5. Committee Members were: GCAFC President: Ethan Sorrell Treasurer: Men’s First Team Captain: James Wiseman Men’s Second Team Captain: Harry Atkins Men’s Third Team Captain: David Evans

Football: Gonville & Caius and Hughes Hall Women’s and Non-Binary Football Club Gonville & Caius and Hughes Hall Women’s and Non-Binary Football Club (CUGHES) is a joint football team for the two Colleges. The club is open to new members of all abilities and every year many new Caius students enjoy giving football a go and getting a taste for the game. This year, the team has competed within both the Cuppers competition and Division 2 of the College football league. The team trains once a week and plays a match at the weekend during Michaelmas and Lent terms, with a more casual routine during Easter term during the lead up to exams. This year, approximately twenty-two Caians have been involved in a match or training session, with an additional three players involved from Hughes Hall. Widening participation from Hughes Hall is a key aim for the 2022/23 academic year and to this end we shall be attending the Hughes Hall fresher’s fair. There is a great community spirit within the team, and it helps to broaden interactions across the College as there is players involved from undergraduates to postgraduates. As well as this, the club provides an opportunity for aspiring referees within the College increase their experience at different footballing levels. The club has its own football shirt, shared with the men’s side, and every year there is an annual order of personalised football shirts, something that all the club members love! We reached the quarter final in the Cuppers competition, where we lost 2-0 to Jesus, who later went on to win Cuppers 2-1 against Newnham/Pembroke. In the League we competed against Peterhouse/Clare/Clare Hall, Wolfson/Darwin, Trinity, and Downing/ Trinity Hall in the 2nd division of the college league. We won the second division with 12 points; the second placed team finished three points behind. We won both games that we played, beating Peterhouse/Clare/ Clare Hall by two goals to one and Wolfson/Darwin by 7 goals to 5. Unfortunately, the other three games were conceded to us since the opposition was unable to provide a team. We aim to encourage as many new and existing Cains as possible to get involved with the football club during the new academic year. We also aim to continue providing weekly training sessions for new players to ensure they feel comfortable in the game environment, but also to ensure they are given an opportunity to learn and develop their football skills. Many players have never played football before so providing training sessions is vital to ensuring the success of the team. Both Yichen and Holly play for the university second team and thus have ample experience in providing training exercises of the correct standard. We also aim to plan more social events outside of the weekly training sessions and matches to ensure that team spirit is as high as possible. This will also help to increase

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

interactions across different year groups within the two Colleges. This could be extended to encouraging more social events with the men’s football team too. Committee: Yichen Cai (President and Captain); Holly Barber (Treasurer).

Frisbee (see below under New Thundercatz Ultimate) Hockey Club We had a very successful season this year, entering one mixed team into the College league in both Michaelmas and Lent, and one team into hockey cuppers which ran over Lent and Easter terms. We consistently had strong teams, and on occasion we even had enough to field two full teams – potentially something to aim for consistently next year! The team is joint with Girton, although we provide most of the players. We ended up with two mid-table results in the top College league in Michaelmas with some good results including wins against Christs/Pembroke and Trinity, and a draw against the eventual champions Catz. It was a similar story in Lent, where wins against Clare and Trinity and draws against St John’s 1s and Catz (1st and 2nd in the league respectively) gave us sixth place in the league (out of nine teams). In cuppers, a dominant performance against Robinson got us to the quarter finals, where, unfortunately, we lost a close game against Christs/Pembroke. Getting to finals day next year is very achievable though! We have bolstered the club kit with a new keeper helmet, hockey sticks and shin pads to encourage those without kit to play, and club socks organised by Kirsten were very popular. Next year, it would be good to have another shirt order, to make sure the team is playing in matching kit. Tom has ordered more balls and coloured vests to ensure that we aren’t so reliant on St John’s for kit! There are roughly equal proportions of men and women in the club which is excellent, and many players play both for the University and College. In the coming years, improving consistency with regular turnout and performance during the league will be key, as on our day we are one of the strongest College teams. Several socials were organised throughout the year which were a great success. Next year, however, we could plan more socials earlier in term before some players drift off – many more people signed up for hockey initially than regularly played for the team. We are passing the captaincy to Alice Hunt (Classics, 2020). Alice would like to arrange more regular training sessions for the team, which may include splitting a pitch booking with another college. She would also like to increase the number of socials held for the team.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

Law Society Gonville and Caius Law Society comprises all Caius law students (from Freshers to postgraduate students) as well as other Caius students who have an interest in the law and potential career paths within it. We host a variety of events including socials at the start of every term, networking events with different law firms as well as the Annual Law Dinner after Easter Term examinations. In 2021-22, we increased the range of events we host to keep attendees engaged, for example, a Christmas party, barrister talks and speaker events regarding alternative career paths accessible with a law degree. In Michaelmas we organised the Freshers Introduction Panel, as well as beginning and end of Term drinks. Law firm events such as the Slaughter and May networking event and the HSF evening event proved popular, as did the Barrister talk. Like other subject societies we organised Week 5 ‘pick-me-ups’. We also held the usual Sir William McNair Moot and our Annual GCLS Dinner with guest speaker Amanda Pinto QC. We would like to ensure that all Caius Law students can engage with the society if they wish and become actively involved in the event organisation. We may decide to expand the GCLS committee and create new roles to enable more students to participate actively. Looking ahead to future careers, we would like to provide more opportunities for a diverse range of skills and interests, especially moving away from the current focus on becoming a commercial solicitor. We also expect to expand our membership to students who study subjects other than Law. Committee members were: President: Georgia Batcheldor Secretary: Josh Hare Treasurer: Samiha Hussain

Medical Society The Caius Medical Society (CMS) serves the medical student community of Gonville and Caius College. We offer a variety of academic, social and welfare events which run throughout the year. The academic events range from introductory talks for the incoming freshers to access initiatives such as the summer talk series. The academic side of the society has become more prominent since we created a new ‘academic officer’ position on the committee. Our social programme includes two or three events per term and the Christmas Party, the CMS dinner, and the CMS Garden Party. Finally, welfare events usually occur once a term, around week five and involve handing out donuts in the Caius JCR. Over the year we held an introduction to MVST1A for the Freshers, as well as sessions on preparing for IA Tripos, IB Tripos and Part II. We also ran a Homeostasis revision

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

session for freshers, a Journal Club, and an essay writing workshop. As in previous years, our summer talk series (an access initiative that involves weekly talks on the Medicine application process as well as on scientific topics) and our Virtual Access Day proved to be very popular. We hope to do this in person next year, although doing it online enables us to reach out to more people. This year we were able to hold many of the events we couldn’t hold last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These included the CMS Christmas Party, the CMS Dinner, and the CMS Garden Party, as well as other smaller social events and in person academic events. We aim to continue our busy programme of talks and social events to provide the best possible support to the Caius Medics. We also plan to work more closely with Caius Medical Association to link the clinical and pre-clinical aspects of the course more smoothly. One large new endeavour is the CMS Access Residential which took place is August. In collaboration with the Caius access team, four volunteers from the CMS committee hosted twenty participants. Over three days participants heard talks from students and Fellows, participated in mock supervisions, engaged in various activities around Cambridge. The aim was to give prospective applicants a taste of what it is like to study Medicine in Cambridge. Looking ahead, we have plans for a Caius Medical Society Sports Day in aid of charity, more talks for second years to elucidate the most difficult undergraduate year, and some more clinical talks. Current committee members: President: Fozy Ahmed Vice-President: Aniruddh Prabhu Secretary: Lucy Li Treasurer: Aroun Kalyana Access Officer: Holly Cairns Entertainments Officers: Krishnan Ajit and Marios Constantinides Freshers’ Representative: Arinjoy Banerjee Veterinary Representative: Edan Reid Academic Officer: Aaliyah Razi Welfare Officers: Melissa Jones, Georgina Acott and Tom Cowan Clinical Representative: Tommy Kelly Computing Officer: Alec Morley

Music Society The Gonville & Caius Musical Society encompasses several different types, sizes, and standards of ensemble, events, and opportunities for keen musicians at Caius. In Michaelmas and Lent we host large-scale orchestral and choral concerts and offer

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

opportunities for all budding conductors and composers in Caius, as well as musicians of all instruments, plus singers. Alongside this, we have termly jazz events with professional players (Caius Jazz), which offer a relaxing evening for all. We also host two performance series: the Recital Series (sixteen Saturday-lunchtime concerts open to the public) and the Scales Club (five informal open mic nights for Caius students and Fellows only). Both series are consistently successful and contribute greatly to the social cohesion of the musical community. When not in the clutches of a global pandemic, our last ‘hurrah’ of the year is the greatly anticipated May Week Show, usually a light performance, a musical or a showcase, offering a performing opportunity to actors as well as singers. We enjoyed reinstating this much-loved tradition this year, making full use of the space provided by the completion of the Hall refurbishments. Across the year, GCMS provides many opportunities for a diverse range of skills and interests. This year we were also able to hold the GCMS Annual Dinner again and the Phoenix Conference for the composition of modern tonal music. Another notable feature of our activities has been our growing collaboration with the now well-known and successful Caius Big Band, which we intend to continue. The percussion collection has largely been repaired (timpani, bass drum, vibraphone) and the GCMS drum kit has been comprehensively overhauled, allowing its use by Caius Big Band and other musicians at Caius. The music library in K St Mary’s has been reorganized (with a new Google Doc inventory) and our treasurer has moved us to online banking and accounting. We have eliminated the roles of Orchestral and Concert managers and all members of the committee now help run events. Looking ahead, using the Hall again will facilitate concerto opportunities for the Lent Term Concert, for example, hiring in a grand piano, as well as allowing greater attendance. We plan to continue working with Caius Big Band to expand our audience and engage with more college musicians. We also hope to set up small chamber ensembles next year which would perform regularly. Integrating the Caius Big Band within the GCMS fold will hopefully bring all musicmaking at Caius within the GCMS umbrella, which will facilitate streamlined finances and the use of shared GCMS equipment such as amplification and the keyboard. We also plan to draw up a full inventory of all electrical equipment of the society, which we hope will facilitate a more structured rental policy. Committee members were: Co-Presidents: Inigo Jones & Sophie Rogan Junior Treasurer: Ujjawal Kumar – Junior Treasurer Secretary: Hannah Wilkie

Natural Sciences Society The Natural Sciences Society comprises all Caius Natural Sciences students (primarily undergraduates, but also including any postgraduates on science-oriented courses). The sheer breadth of the course makes us one of the most diverse clubs in the College. We aim to foster a friendly and welcoming community of like-minded individuals and provide a strong support network across all years of study. This has been crucial to rebuilding crosscollege links this year during the transition back to normal university life after the pandemic. We hold many social events such as Pizza Parties and Pub Crawls, often with other Colleges’ Natural Sciences Societies. This gives students the opportunity to network and take a break from the unrelenting Cambridge schedule of work throughout the year. The highlight of our calendar is the annual NatSci Dinner in Lent Term, which brings together students and fellows for an evening of drink, food, and chat. Plans for the society include arranging a NatSci stall at the Caius societies Freshers’ Week, creating ‘NatSci families’ to help the freshers settle in and integrate those in different Parts of the Tripos, speaker events, even more social events, and continuing focus on our annual dinner. Committee members were: President: Harry Langford Vice Presidents: Aditya Varshney & Lauren Woodman Secretary: Louise Treacy Treasurer: Isaac Parker Freshers Rep: Natalia Emsley Social Rep: William Vaughan

Netball Club The Caius Netball Club has been a huge part of college sport for several years now and this year has been really flourished in the post-COVID world with a huge intake of freshers and the return of several older years back to the sport. The club makes use of courts on Barton Road to play weekly matches for the college league. We play in a Ladies and Mixed cup and receive substantial player numbers for both teams. Also, this year has seen the return of Cuppers tournament at the end of Lent term which was particularly enjoyable.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

This academic year the club has been run by me, (Grace Dodwell) and Laura Jacques, we are both second year students who were enthusiastic participants in first year and will continue to partake in the future. Together we have re-introduced netball kit for the College, for which there was huge demand from freshers and fourth years alike. We have also run several successful socials and are looking forward to the inter-year netball tournament which concludes the netball season at Caius. In Cuppers this year we made it through our knockout round and made it to the quarter finals before an unfortunate elimination. In our League matches we were very successful and had a win streak of seven games in Michaelmas for the mixed team. We ended the year in third place in the Second Division of the Ladies league. For the mixed team we also climbed to third place in the Third Division. This has been an impressive result for the club, and we are proud to have done so well. A standout success for the netball team was the Sports Day against Brasenose College, Oxford. We won both the mixed and ladies matches and had huge amounts of players very keen to get on court. It was a great opportunity for new people to play and lovely to meet our sister College in a competitive and friendly format. Laura and I are proud of how the club has done this year and are so impressed by the enthusiasm shown by every member. We really look forward to passing the baton on to some of the keen freshers. We hope that in the future we will be able to organise a netball tour in the UK or elsewhere. The club enjoys funding from the College but hopes to increase this next year so that we can invest in buying a new kit bag and balls. We also hope to introduce more frequent socials perhaps on a weekly basis. These could easily be arranged around brunch following our Saturday and Sunday matches at Caius or another College. Captains: Grace Dowell & Laura Jacques

New Thundercatz Ulitmate (Frisbee) The New Thundercatz Ultimate Frisbee team is the Cambridge University College League team for St Catherine’s, Gonville and Caius, Fitzwilliam, Trinity Hall, Lucy Cavendish and St Edmund’s. We have a weekly training session and a fixture against another team, with a termly Cuppers event to round off each season. The League is semi-competitive with a high emphasis on team spirit and fair play. Currently, we have around twenty-five active members drawn from the six participating Colleges. Our team emphasises cultivating good team spirit and being inclusive of players of all levels. For the Indoor Cuppers event in Michaelmas Term, New Thundercatz split into two teams. The first team got all the way to the semi-final of the upper bracket before losing due to the match being drawn at full time and being decided on a coin-flip, which we

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

lost. The second team got to the final of the second bracket, but unfortunately lost in the final. Our Outdoor Cuppers event will be taking place soon, for which we have again split into two teams, with a total of twenty-four players attending. New Thundercatz has significantly grown in numbers and skill over the last two years. Two years ago, the whole team only consisted of six players and was placed at the bottom of Division 2 the end of Easter Term 2021, we placed near the top of Division 2. This year, we grew to 25 regular players, and were placed second in Division 1 in Michaelmas and Lent (missing out on first place due to point difference), and first in Division 1 in Easter for the first time in a decade, winning all five of our games. Other than developing our team’s technical skills through games and trainings, we also regularly organise socials such as formals, barbecues and brunches to build team spirit off the pitch! With only a few people leaving at the end of this year and a strong emphasis on recruitment, we aim to increase the size of the society, especially through fresher and beginner recruitment at college fresher fairs and taster sessions during Michaelmas. Our player development has already become apparent, with multiple players moving on to the University development, second and first teams. Hopefully this trend in performance and team numbers will continue next year. Committee member were: Captain:Tom Lopez (Gonville and Caius) Secretary: Clarissa Teh (Gonville and Caius) Treasurer: Adam Sabo (Gonville and Caius) Social Secretary: Elliot Kelly (Robinson) Tactics Officer: Magnus Oakes (Robinson) Stash Officer & Secondary Tactics Officer: Zaid Mathieson (Fitzwilliam)

Photography Society The GCPS exists to promote photography at Caius and provide opportunities for our members to learn about the creative and technical sides of film photography. We manage the Caius dark room and make sure that users have the skills and resources to use it safely and effectively. This year our activities have been significantly curtailed by a lack of time on the part of the outgoing committee, but for next year we are planning a re-launch. We aim to run a Freshers even to promote the society and photography at Caius. We shall also organise darkroom-introduction sessions to teach new users how to develop and

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

print film safely and effectively. We intend to organise photo walks and events, and to exhibit the best photography from our members Committee members were: President: Finn Ashley Treasurer: Freddie Poser

Rugby Club GCRUFC, the college’s rugby union club, welcomes players of all levels of experience and skill, and promotes an environment where all can enjoy playing rugby, as well as offering an attractive social environment to members. We aspire to compete to a high standard in the intercollegiate competitions, whilst retaining an inclusive mindset. GCRUFC made it to the Cuppers Plate final, played at the top level of college rugby and went on a successful and historic tour to Cardiff. We had a proper season of rugby, after a tricky last year, which brought the team together and will stand us in good stead for next year. College rugby struggled across the university with numbers this year. This is likely due to freshers not having played their final year of school rugby and feeling reluctant to come back to the sport. GCRUFC shared these struggles, only recruiting one fresher, but through recruitment in other years and commitment of current players, we had a successful season. We played in the top division of college rugby and enjoyed good wins against top sides such as St. John’s and Downing. The team were courageous in these matches, often playing with fewer numbers than the opposition. We then joined the 12-a-side league, filled with other College teams that struggled for players. A lot of sides had to resort to joining with other Colleges, but we are proud that we managed to stay as just Caius and we topped this new league, showing our quality when numbers were even. This quality showed when we reached the Cuppers Plate final and despite huge support from Caians at Grange Road, we sadly lost against a strong Jesus team. Five of our players played for the university throughout the season, right up to the First XV, as well as one playing Rugby League for the university. A highlight of the year was our tour to Cardiff in September. This was prompted by a number of articles (e.g. www.cai.cam.ac.uk/news/caius%E2%80%99- cardiff-rugbyconnection) about the Caius connection with the Cardiff Rugby (formerly Cardiff Blues) professional rugby club. We went sightseeing in the city, took a tour of the Arms Park stadium and watched a thrilling Cardiff match against Connacht. We trained for and

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

played a match against Barry RFC, which ended 14-10 to the home team. The tour was documented on the College website: www.cai.cam.ac.uk/news/caius-and- cardiffextend-connection. We also hosted a Caius Old Boys team and watched a Six Nations game with them. The match was extremely competitive, and it was a great chance to catch up with past players. Having a full year of rugby and events such as the tour have brought the team together. Next year recruitment will be particularly important, both among first years and existing students. One way to entice more members will be funding for equipment. Our current budget has enabled us to buy gumshields and we can also buy boots (both essential for playing rugby) and the GCSU grant for students to buy co-curricular equipment is also helpful. The funds at our disposal have helped keep equipment up to date and the money will be crucial next year when the new RFU requirements for first aid provision at training and matches will require us to pay for first aid courses for our committee. A new kit (the current one is three years old) is also being ordered over the summer. Committee members were: Captain: James O’Sullivan Vice-Captains: Josh Grier and Nik Yazikov President: Harry Langford

Shadwell Society The Shadwell Society is the Gonville & Caius arts funding body. We fund and support projects from short films to spoken word events and theatre productions across Cambridge. We prioritise supporting underrepresented voices and those with limited experience to help diversify the Cambridge arts scene. This year the Shadwell society funded several shows from the Old Bailey at the ADC to short films like Ferret and Contraception: A Hard Pill to Swallow. We look forward to funding more projects in the future. Co-Presidents of the society were: Amber Hyams and James Macnab.

Table Tennis Society The Gonville and Caius table Tennis society consists of about twenty members from across different year groups. The society was established to provide students with a

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

chance to exercise whilst having fun and socialising. The weekly one-hour sessions have been held at Kelsey Kerridge sports centre on most Sundays in late Michaelmas, Lent and early Easter. Going forward we expect Haidar Mathieson and Sharon Ho, a current member, to form the committee and run the society. This year’s table tennis sessions involved members playing one-to-one games, doubles, and often at the end of the session a game of ‘Around the World’. Members played in a way that was both friendly and highly competitive. The society has helped many of its members improve their table tennis skills: many started the club with little to no experience and have since become very proficient players. Looking ahead to next year, Gonville and Caius Table Tennis society hopes to participate in the intercollegiate table tennis competition held by the Universities Table Tennis Society. Additionally, we will aim to organise games with players from other Colleges. Committee members were: Arjun Sharma Grace Amedor Haidar Mathieson.

Tennis Club The Gonville & Caius Tennis Club is committed to providing all Caius students, whether undergraduate or postgraduate, the opportunity and facilities to play tennis at a level that suits them. Each week, we host two, two-hour training sessions which all are welcome to attend – from novices to Blues. We engage in a mixture of fun games and practice drills, which together help to improve players’ techniques whilst ensuring they still are having a good time. For those who wish to take their tennis to the next level and play in a more competitive setting, each term we partake in an intercollegiate league. Every weekend, our First and Second Teams play a series of singles and doubles matches against another College’s team. This year, our players played exceptionally well, putting Caius on the map as a force to be reckoned with in the intercollegiate leagues, whilst always having a good time and playing respectfully, In the Michaelmas League, our 1st Team placed second in Division 2, and our 2nd and 3rd Team each placed first in Division 5 and 8 respectively. This meant that our teams were promoted. In the Lent League, our First Team were placed second in Division 1, and our 2nd Team second in Division 4. Owing to lack of players, we did not enter our 3rd Team in this league.

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22

In this years’ Cuppers, our 2nd Team were knocked out Round 2 after a tough game against Sidney Sussex’s 1st Team. However, our 1st Team went on to beat Sidney and reached the Quarter-Final, where they fell at the hands of the mighty Churchill 1st Team. Overall, we’re proud to say that Caius boasts some of the best tennis players at the university, and these fantastic results are a testament to that. We are equally proud of the unfailingly positive and respectful way our players play. This year, we also hosted a great range of socials to offer our players a way of enjoying themselves in a less physically demanding setting. These socials have largely been swaps with the Gonville & Caius Badminton and Squash societies, including bowling at the end of Michaelmas, a BBQ at the end of Easter, and a handful of pub crawls in between. These socials were all hugely successful. They would not have been possible without the cooperation and organisation of former tennis captain Cynthia Shen and current badminton captain Izaak Haywood Fairclough. Together, they organised and promoted of these events, while Emma and Kieran had their hands full with captain responsibilities. Looking Ahead Next year, Caius Tennis plans to continue its bi-weekly training sessions as well as participation in the termly leagues. While we are unfortunately going to be losing some of our best players as they graduate, we are confident that our current players will rise to the challenge of filling their shoes. We also hope that we’ll see new faces join the team from the incoming First Years as well as current students who haven’t yet given tennis a go. Committee Members were Current Captains: Kieran Holder, Emma Paterson Former Captains: Cynthia Shen, Matthew Barker, Gabriel Corrigan

The Senior Bursar’s Report 2021-22 Master and Fellows

Robert Gardiner, Senior Bursar, writes:

(108 - 109)

Actual sunshine and metaphorical rain This was a year of contrasts. The College began to emerge from the pandemic or at least live with it and there was some normality in the early part of the financial year but a surge of Covid cases led to the cancellation of a number of College events in Michaelmas. In spite of eventual post-pandemic metaphorical Nicolas Simcik Arese Robert Gardiner Seniorand Bursar DoS in Architecture sunshine the actual baking sunshine of the 2022 drought, economically it rained heavily. It rained on financial markets with inflation and the invasion of Ukraine so the endowment struggled to make significant headway. The inflation rained directly on the College’s budgets for payroll, food and building costs. Colleges were collectively insulated from energy prices by forward purchasing, but they will hit us next year. At the same time the College struggled to recruit operational staff, particularly catering staff. We managed some conference business but were constrained throughout the year. The shortage appears to be attributable to a combination of decisions by temporary Cambridge residents, a traditional and lively source of labour, to return early to home countries in the face of lock-downs and Brexit making longer-term stays in Cambridge difficult or unattractive.

Living within our means?

] ] ]

I was asked this question two years ago by the Examiners of Accounts, an internal audit committee of Fellows. It is hard to give a short, cogent summary as we are still emerging from the effects of the pandemic, so the trends of financial performance are hard to read. My predecessor proposed an endowment goal of £300m, now increased to £330m for inflation, for us to be self-sustaining, particularly to refurbish of our fine estate. We continued, this year more slowly, in the direction of that target but we do need to meet it in order to say ‘Yes, we are living within our means’ over the long term, without having to have recourse to benefactions to finance the large refurbishment projects.

Commentary on the Accounts The appendix shows is an abridged version of our published accounts as drawn up in the required ‘Recommended Cambridge College Accounts’ format. They are not an easy or transparent read! So the narrative below attempts to highlight some key points.

Education – Academic fee income – £4.1m; costs – £9.1m The student numbers stayed largely static and so did the regulated fee for each ‘Home’ undergraduate of £9,250, which means it now has only 81% of its value when introduced in 2012. 537 out of 600 of undergraduates are on the regulated fee. The inflation erosion to the fee since 2012 is equivalent to £0.6m per year. This has to come from the endowment. Graduate income in the year however increased by 10%, commensurate with overall increases in the University’s graduate fees. Education of its students is Academic income and costs £000s where our principal charitable 10000 benefit is applied.

Conference income had almost completely vanished and came back reasonably butexpenditure Conference income Conference was still substantially below the £1.5m pre-pandemic level so we were missing this important contribution to balancing the domestic activity budget. The whole of the domestic and catering operation suffered increased expenditure, in particular in: food, where inflation was early and strong; the need to use expensive agency staff to stand in for permanent posts; and increased payroll costs to retain existing or recruit new staff.

Investment returns – £7.3m income arising; £3.9m drawn for expenditure The draw-down of £5.1m from the endowment, budgeted to finance expenditure, was based on a cautious withdrawal rate of 2.625%. The final sum of £3.9m was reduced by unrestricted donations of £1.2m, though the annual fund which raised £0.2m for student support was applied to expenditure. Accordingly the actual draw-down was 1.6% of the actual brought forward value of the net endowment.

Other expenditure – £9.5m Other expenditure merits explanation, as it contains very large investment management and pensions costs. The investment management costs of £5.4m reflected some delayed performance fees of financial investment managers but also the substantial costs of running a directly held property portfolio. Pension scheme ‘costs’ of £2.4m arose on revaluation of the College’s participation in the Cambridge Colleges Federated Pension Scheme, but this is fortunately not a cash cost but an accounting estimate which can be quite volatile from year to year. In addition some Covid-related costs continued and indeed increased, in particular the asymptomatic Covid testing regime for students which had to be procured commercially after closure of a Cambridge ‘lighthouse’ Covid testing lab.

Donations – £5.9m As ever, this figure fluctuates with the receipt (or not) of a small number of high value gifts, often legacies, while a more steady stream of smaller gifts supports it. I am immensely grateful to all those who give to the College, with gifts small and large,

FINANCE, DEVELOPMENT AND THE CAIUS FOUNDATION

and to those who remembered the College in their wills. Gifts for restricted purposes allow us to do things we could not otherwise do; unrestricted gifts play a huge role in supporting the big refurbishment projects required to maintain the estate. The College received donations for many purposes, including various forms of specific and general student support (£1.3m), academic and teaching support (£1.6m), post-graduate studentships (£1.0m) and giving for other specific or unrestricted purposes (£2.0m).

University Contribution – £0.2m The contribution to the Colleges’ Fund aims to reduce disparity of college wealth. The contribution is based broadly on endowment assets per student. Colleges with more contribute more and the College’s contribution was the sixth largest contribution. Donations out of the Colleges’ Fund to poorer colleges were again allowed to be expended immediately to alleviate the acute financial difficulties of some colleges caused by Covid.

Endowment value – £254.5m; net gains – £5.4m The total investment return was +2.7%, which was nowhere near the remarkable prior year performance of 17.3% but pleasing in a very difficult investment environment. The star performance was from the College’s property portfolio which returned 7.6%.

Fixed assets – £136.5m In comparison to recent years which saw the major kitchen refurbishment, the year mostly consisted of routine work to roofs and heating systems but there was also further expenditure on work preparatory to the major refurbishment of A to F staircases of St Michael’s Court, starting in July 2023.

Other assets and liabilities The net current assets of £3.4m are the daily working capital. Beyond that the College has two substantial debts: £10m under the ‘Colleges’ Bond’ due 2042 to finance

FINANCE, DEVELOPMENT AND THE CAIUS FOUNDATION

endowment property assets and £5.2m in amortising loans taken out to smooth expenditure on refurbishments. The College also ensures all staff have the opportunity to join a high quality pension fund but these are in deficit in accounting terms. The main exposures within £7.0m of pension liabilities are in respect of the Cambridge Colleges Federated Pension Scheme (CCFPS) and the Universities Superannuation Scheme. The accounting liability estimate is not an immediate cash call and both funds plans which are expected to eliminate deficits at current rates of cash contribution.

Reserves and trust funds – £382.3m The endowment represents the investment of general unrestricted reserves which are not represented by buildings and other assets, and restricted trust funds for – variously – bursaries, hardship, travel, teaching or research fellowships, scholarships, studentships and prizes. The College’s free reserves are £148m carried both to generate income to support the education of students and also, as for other charities, to see the organisation through difficulties. Fortunately, the College has come out of the Covid difficulty with more reserves than before it, thanks to endowment returns and the generosity of our benefactors.

The staff I must acknowledge with thanks the enormous contribution of the College’s staff. While much of my time is spent on financial and endowment matters, I am directly and very ably supported by the Bursary staff who work hard to control and report on the finances of the College. In addition the Senior Bursar has overall responsibility for the College operations which are supported day to day by the operational department staff who work tirelessly to support the College’s objectives of learning, religion, education and research. I thank them all for their hard work every day. The operational staff have been led for the last six years by the Domestic Bursar Mrs. Jennifer Phillips (1996). Just after the year under review she resigned to take up the role of Bursar at Selwyn College. I am hugely pleased for her but sorry for Caius in losing a very talented Domestic Bursar. Her achievements are many and varied. Particularly notable was the kitchen refurbishment, an enormous project where nothing appeared not to have been considered in its planning and execution. Subsequently, she laid equally careful plans for the refurbishment of A to F staircases of St Michael’s Court. During the pandemic, she worked and communicated tirelessly with the College community to manage the changes and challenges of waves of rules coming on top of waves of infection. I could not want for a better bursarial colleague in navigating that awful period. Jennifer had the respect and affection of the students, understanding their wishes and aims from her own time as a student here, but also informed by subsequent working

experience so that she knew at what point to say ‘no’ to them. Above all, working with Jennifer was fun and I shall miss her propensity to laugh uproariously at the funny, the difficult and the unexpected in the role. I wish her every success.

Throughout this academic year our usual routine gradually resumed. Covid still disrupted the first half of the year, but the increasing frequency of social gatherings and in-person meetings have afforded my team and me the unparalleled experience of finally seeing so many of you who hold Caius close to your heart. The return to business-as-usual has also highlighted the many gaps in my knowledge that needed filling: seeing Caius in the normal(ish) rhythm of the year, observing College traditions and really getting close to directly witnessing the impact of your gifts among our students, fellows and the College fabric.

With varying degrees of success (i.e., when not struck down by The Virus), the Master and I relished the opportunities finally to get out and about, meeting Caians outside Cambridge and overseas. When I first arrived in Caius, at the top of my list was creating opportunities for Caians to gather in locations other than College. Connecting to the place is important and nothing can replace the richness of memories that imbue the walls of our Old and new (Harvey!) courts. But the pace and practicalities of life mean that sometimes it is simply more practical to have a chance to gather ‘closer to home.’ We were particularly happy when we finally convened in London last September. Generously hosted by William Vereker (1985), Caians from the 1980s enjoyed each other’s and the company of the Master and Carolyn Fairbairn (1980), remembering those special days spent in Cambridge. Alas, Covid struck, and I missed this much awaited occasion, but we are already planning for more! The Master and I kept a keen eye on the world of travel and took advantage of a brief window in early December 2021 to visit Caians in California. Thank you very much indeed to Stephen Evans (1994) for the last-minute arrangements and generous hospitality at The Battery in San Francisco. We are already planning a return to this vibrant part of the world in the months to come. The Caius Foundation has been tremendous in garnering support for the College in the US. It was a particular honour and pleasure to be able to gather in person under its auspices in New York in the spring of 2022. The President of the Caius Foundation, the Hon John Lehman (1965), and the Board hosted a wonderful reception for Caians at the Yacht Club. We remain deeply grateful for the steadfast commitment and generosity of US-based Caians, and I look forward to building new and maintaining existing warm relationships across the Atlantic. The final flourish of the year was a visit to Singapore in September. Sadly, I travelled without the Covid-stricken Master. Singaporean Caians extended me the warmest of welcomes and an extraordinary hospitality. Thank you very much indeed to Siew Chua (1984) and Khai Meng Choy, and Mike Syn (1990) and Elaine Syn without whom the lovely dinner in the Botanic Gardens would not have been possible. It was the largest gathering of Caians in Singapore for some time!

THE YEAR IN COLLEGE 2021-22 QUINCENTENARY

Caius Club

Catherine Lister, the chairman, writes: The Caius Club held its annual College dinner on 9 April 2022 and record numbers of Caians attended this year, all keen to meet up after so much time apart during the pandemic. As usual the College provided a splendid three course meal, and we were entertained by 1979 alumna Mary Lowth. In June, the Bumps picnic took place on the last day of racing, and despite some rather damp and gloomy weather the attendees were treated to some fantastic racing and plenty to cheer about. The M1 boat retained the Headship, M2 went up three places and M3 moved up to Division 3, whilst in the ladies’ races W1 finished second in Division 1, W2 got blades and W3 moved up to Division 3. As usual the numbers at the picnic were swelled by guests from the Benefactors lunch in College, and the Caius Club collaborated with the Jimmy Altham and Boat Club members to provide drinks, shelter and seating for those who had brought their own picnics. In October we had our London dinner at the ever-popular Oxford & Cambridge Club. Once again, this event attracted great interest with a full house of fifty-five guests, including our guest speaker Arif Ahmed from the College, who spoke about the importance of free speech. This autumn, we are planning to offer a different setting for our London dinner – the details are yet to be confirmed but do look out for more information by email – it promises to be quite special.

Caius House, Battersea

Delrita Agyapong, Chief Executive Officer, writes Caius House is a youth and community centre located in Battersea, South-West London. Originally founded in 1888 by a group of Fellows of Gonville and Caius College. Caius House was the original location for the stained-glass window by Sir Edward BurneJones, which now marks the entrance to the Caius library. We also have a full-size replica of the window in the Caius House building. 2021-22 has been a very busy year. We have been working hard with young people and providing them with a range of opportunities to try new things, see new things and deepen their passion for activities they enjoy. The main platform for this is out daily youth club sessions. The building houses several great spaces such as the sports hall, the dance studio and recording studio, the media suite, and the large kitchen. Using these spaces, the youth workers can develop programmes to engage the youth attending the sessions. Following on from the pandemic we have increased our outreach work by going into local secondary school to promote the work of Caius House and to welcome young people back into the building to engage in a full range of activities. The feedback has been positive, and we have been able to participate in various London wide projects such as the London Youth Good for Girls project that focused on the wellbeing of girls in the London area and provided them with tools to support positive mental health. We realised the importance of positive mental health for all our members and staff and were fortunate to receive three years of funding to deliver a counselling service and wellbeing sessions for the attendees. Young people, their families and people working with young people will be able to refer to our service. Caius House can respond quickly to the needs of the young people, often with no waiting list, providing support and help in a comfortable, youth friendly environment. Clients can access six sessions initially after which an evaluation will take place and we then decide whether an additional four sessions will be offered. We hope to increase this offer in the future. This year we were selected to represent the UK at the Princes Trust’s International Forum with other representatives from India and Rwanda and government officials from Barbados and Kenya. This gave our members the chance to speak about their views on employment. Caius House had a packed summer offering as part of the government’s Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme. Each day the young people had access to a hot

CAIAN NEWS

meal and activities including trips and residentials to activity centres. Young people were able to participate in abseiling, go karting, trampolining and Go Ape. On average ninety young people a day attended the sessions offered. The summer also involved members getting involved in the annual Battersea Come Dine with Me event, which was organised by the Battersea Summer Scheme and supported by Battersea United Charities. This fiercely fought competition involved five local youth organisations competing to be crowned Come Dine with Me champion. Each club must cook and entertain representatives from the other clubs (roughly twenty-five people) while the others rate the overall experience. You will all be pleased to know that Caius House won the competition for the second time in the four-year history of the competition. Caius House continues to be a hub in the local community in which young people can become involved. We work closely with local residents and organisations to fulfil our mission: ‘Making the best of ourselves and Battersea.’ Editor’s note: Further information about the history and current activities of Caius House is offered on their excellent website: www.caiushouse.org

Caius Lodge

Richard Field (1969), Secretary writes: Our 2021 November meeting was the first “normal” one since the pandemic. Our first duty was a remembrance of Edgar Harborne (1952), who had died in September – a Eulogy was read by Dr. Jack Eames (1954). We did not have a Candidate, so our Worshipful Master, Bob Kottritsch (1969) carried out a demonstration Second Degree or Passing ceremony. Richard Bates, a regular visitor, kindly acted as the Candidate. Our Metropolitan Grand Inspector, Nick Garnish then presented Peter Jennings (1962) with a 50 Year Certificate. Peter unfortunately was suffering from cancer then. In February 2022 we had a re-joining member, Peter Topping (1986) and a joining member Mark Layzell, who has various links with the College. With no Candidate, Richard Bates (our visitors are worked hard!), once again, functioned as the Initiate and we held a demonstration First Degree ceremony. For dinner this time, we were at The Army & Navy Club on Pall Mall, in the Nelson Room. This was remarkably interesting historically, as on the back wall was a portrait of a youngish Nelson with both eyes and an earring in his left ear! On the side wall was a shallow cupboard with a large oval portrait of Lady Hamilton, Nelson’s own, which had been donated to the Club. On 10 June we held our annual Installation meeting at Bateman Street in Cambridge and Jonathan Price (1976) was Installed as Worshipful Master by Bob Kottritsch (1969). Afterwards we dined in the Fellows’ Dining room in the normal, pre-Covid manner, which was much appreciated – singing was allowed! After dinner we had drinks in the Long Room and some undergraduates joined us, which was particularly nice. We would like to meet any recipients of the Sir Harold Gillies Bursary on our Cambridge meeting day to get their experience of it – I believe that I would have qualified for it, had it been available in my days at Caius.

Obituaries of Fellows

FENLON, DERMOT, MA, PhD (1968-78) 17 August 2022 Fellow 1968-78 Many current Fellows and many students of History in the years 1968-78 will remember Dr Dermot Fenlon as a devoted scholar and engaged teacher, deeply committed to the pursuit of his subject and to the wellbeing of those whom he taught. Dermot Fenlon was born in Dublin on 6 December 1941 to Dermot Fenlon Sr, an engineer, and Mary (née Tutty). He was educated by the Holy Ghost Fathers at Blackrock College in the city and initially intended to become a priest. Having started his novitiate with the Holy Ghost Fathers, however, he ran away because he ‘wanted to be free’. He studied history at University College Dublin from 1963 and achieved a First with higher marks than either Ronan Fanning or Patrick Cosgrave, his contemporaries who both went on to become distinguished historians. After graduation, he moved to Peterhouse, Cambridge, where he completed a PhD on the Italian Counter-Reformation under the supervision of Geoffrey Elton. His research was widely admired and the book that resulted from his thesis, Heresy and Obedience in Tridentine Italy published by Cambridge University Press in 1972, remains a standard work. In 1968 Fenlon was elected to a Research Fellowship at Caius. He was appointed as a University Assistant Lecturer in 1970 and became Tutor. Although Caius appointed him as a College Lecturer in History in 1976, he resigned his Fellowship two years later to become a Fellow of Peterhouse. During these years he continued to study ecclesiastical history. He became an expert on St Philip Neri, the Italian Counter-Reformation theologian who had founded the Oratorians in the sixteenth century. More importantly for his personal development, in these years he also developed a profound interest in John Henry Newman, who had left the Church of England to become a Roman Catholic Oratorian priest and was appointed a cardinal by Pope Leo XIII in 1879. Despite his antipathy to the Holy Ghost Fathers, Fenlon’s studies ultimately rekindled his vocation. Instead of taking up his Peterhouse Fellowship he left Cambridge in 1978 to train for the priesthood at the Pontifical Beda College in Rome. After ordination in

OBITUARIES

1982, he became a parish priest in the diocese of East Anglia, though he soon tired of purely pastoral duties and became a lecturer at St Mary’s College, Oscott, a Catholic seminary in Sutton Coldfield in Birmingham. In 1991 Fenlon moved to the Birmingham Oratory, which Newman had founded in 1849, and where Fenlon served as a priest and soon excelled in his pastoral care not only for those who worshipped in the Oratory but also among non-Christian faith groups in the city. At the same time, his academic expertise enabled him to assume the post of archivist for Newman’s papers. Over two decades, Fenlon devoted himself to the cause of promoting Newman’s beatification. After the proof of the requisite miracles had been provided, this campaign succeeded, and Pope Benedict XVI formally declared the beatification when he visited the Oratory in 2010. Sadly, Fenlon himself was excluded from the ceremony. He and two colleagues had fallen out with the provost over the latter’s friendship, apparently chaste, with a young man. An Apostolic Visitor appointed by Rome to investigate the matter negotiated the provost’s departure but also ordered Fenlon and his two allies, soon referred to in the media as the ‘Birmingham Three’ to ‘spend time in prayer at three separate monasteries hundreds of miles apart.’ Their crime, it was reported by the BBC, had been to cause ‘disunity, nastiness, dissension and a breakdown of charity’ at the Oratory. Despite a vocal campaign by Oratory parishioners and many clergy and scholars nationwide, the ruling was not set aside. Fenlon, who had done more than almost anyone else to secure Newman’s sainthood, was exclaustrated (exiled from his parish) and forbidden to attend the ceremony. These events undoubtedly caused Fenlon great anguish, but he bore no grudge and did not allow his expulsion from the Oratory to overshadow the rest of his life. After leaving Birmingham, he travelled in Scotland and the US, before returning to Ireland. Bishop Philip Egan of Portsmouth, like Fenlon a staunch conservative in matters of faith, made him a priest in his diocese, which enabled him to say Mass in public anywhere. Fenlon’s continuing devotion to Newman led him to become active in the foundation of the Newman College Ireland in 2014; he taught during its first year in Rome and then for three years in Londonderry. He lived in the Dominican Priory at Waterford until it closed in 2018, whereupon he became chaplain to the Benedictine Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Cobh, Co Cork. Dermot Fenlon spent the remaining four years of his life in Cobh. Despite increasing ill-health, he found peace amid the beautiful surroundings of the priory, ministering to the sisters and those who worshipped in their chapel, and enjoying the wonderful views from the Priory over Cork Harbour.

OBITUARIES

HEWISH, ANTONY (1942), 13 September 2021 Research Fellow 1951-61 Honorary Fellow 1976-2021 His son, Nicholas Hewish has sent us this note. See also The Caian 2020-21, pp. 72-4 A Cornishman, Hewish was born in Fowey in 1924, shortly before the family moved to Newquay where his father had been appointed Manager of Barclays Bank. He was educated at King’s College, Taunton before being admitted to Gonville & Caius College in 1942. After an initial year of study, he was engaged in the development of wartime airborne radio technology first at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough, and then at the Telecommunications Research Establishment, Malvern. Returning to Cambridge in 1946, he graduated in 1948 and immediately joined the radio astronomy research group led by Martin Ryle, with whom he had worked at Malvern. This also allowed him to develop his relationship with Marjorie, a primary school teacher in Cambridge, leading to their marriage two years later. He became an unofficial Drosier Fellow of Caius in 1951 before gaining his PhD the following year, and an official Research Fellow in 1956. In 1961 he transferred to Churchill as Director of Studies in Physics. His research work on the scintillation of cosmic radio sources led to a range of studies of the solar wind and to the construction of increasingly sensitive antennas. In 1967 his recently constructed antenna array detected unexpected and extremely regular scintillations from a source that was later to be identified as the first pulsar. In 1974 he was awarded the Nobel prize for Physics jointly with Martin Ryle for their pioneering research in radio astrophysics, the most notable among a range of awards for related aspects of his continuing research work. In 1976 he was appointed an Honorary Fellow of the College, and in 1982 became head of the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, a post which he held until 1988, retiring the following year. He was a modest man who never sought the limelight. He and Marjorie had a son and daughter who gave them five grandchildren who they enjoyed hosting at their thatched cottage west of Cambridge, but he was never happier than when visiting Cornwall and relishing the clifftop views of the open sea.

OBITUARIES

SACKS, JONATHAN (1966), 7 November 2020 Honorary Fellow, 1993-2020 See also The Caian 2020-21, pp. 74-7. Joanna Bennaroch has kindly sent us this appreciation of Rabbi Lord Sachs, Chief Rabbi of the UK, 1991-2013 As a student at Cambridge Jonathan Sacks cared more for croquet than studying the Torah. Then the Six-Day War in June 1967 changed his life. ‘The entire Jewish world was riveted on what seemed to be an unfolding tragedy and it looked as if a second unthinkable holocaust was about to take place,’ he told Sue Lawley on Desert Island Discs, shortly before being installed as Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth in 1991. ‘People who had never identified themselves as Jews before suddenly turned up at the university synagogue. The atmosphere sent shivers down your spine. We were terrified, and, of course, when the war ended in six days with a tremendous victory for Israel, the release of emotion was something that I don’t think will happen again in my lifetime. It planted a seed in my mind that didn’t go away for the next few years and which I returned to again and again.’ The seed would grow into Sacks becoming arguably Britain’s most thoughtful and eloquent commentator on the importance of faith in the public square. Aided by a deep, sonorous voice and dark, rather mournful eyes that expressed so achingly his quest for truth, Sacks came into the wider public view by delivering the BBC Reith Lectures in 1990. In them, he vigorously challenged the view that religious faith in Europe was in terminal decline. ‘Religion, or more precisely, religions, should have a voice in the public conversation within the societies of the West, as to how to live, how to construct a social order, how to enhance human dignity, honour human life, and indeed protect life as a whole,’ Sacks remarked in 2016. ‘Each religion, and each strand within each religion, will have to undertake this work, because if religion is not part of the solution it will assuredly be a large part of the problem as voices become ever more strident, and religious extremists ever more violent.’ He went on to blame secularisation in western culture for failing to ‘provide guidance on core issues of human identity, creating a vacuum being filled by religious fundamentalism that often stokes hatred’. Sacks was, beyond question, to the outside world the best-known Chief Rabbi in the 255-year official history of the office. No other religious leader, including a succession of archbishops of Canterbury, created quite the same impression as did this goodlooking rabbi who could make the most complicated philosophical arguments sound easy, with phrases such as ‘it’s the people not like us that make us grow’ and ‘science

takes things apart to see how they work. Religion puts things together to see what they mean.’ One commentator noted: ‘When you listen to him, he makes you feel clever.’ As Tony Blair put it when he was Prime Minister: ‘Jonathan Sacks is truly a towering figure in the intellectual life of Britain today. He ranges with extraordinary ease across different fields, making a contribution that is uniquely and distinctively his own. He relates the insights of religion to the modern world and retells the story of faith in a compelling way and that is a rare and remarkable achievement.’ Some in the community of which Sacks was nominally the spiritual leader recognised him as the perfect ambassador for the Jews of Britain. Nobody could imagine a better ‘diplomat’ when he dined at Buckingham Palace and Downing Street. Jonathan Henry Sacks was born in London in 1948, the eldest of four sons, into a ‘very happy family’. His mother, Louisa ‘Libby’ (née Frumkin), worked in her family’s wine business, while his father, Louis, whose parents had emigrated to Britain from Poland when he was two, was a trader who the future Chief Rabbi used to say ‘sold shmatters in the Lane’ (Yiddish slang for clothing in Petticoat Lane market). On his mother’s side, his great-grandfather, Rabbi Arye Leib Frumkin, established a Jewish agricultural settlement in Palestine in the 1870s and wrote a book on the Jewish sages of Jerusalem. Of himself, he once wrote: ‘I found God, first, as a mystery when I was very young. For the first three years of my life, we lived with my mother’s parents as part of a large extended family in Finsbury Park, north London. My grandfather did not serve as a rabbi but he had his own small synagogue (Jews call this a shtiebel), and the services there are among my earliest memories.’ Jonathan attended a Church of England primary school and at his grammar school, Christ’s College in Finchley, the 15-year-old helped to lead morning assemblies for the school’s many Jewish pupils. He won a place at Caius, the first in his family to attend university. ‘My mother used to say when I went off to college every term, “Jonathan, do whatever you like but don’t give up your Judaism”. Since I had carte blanche to do almost anything I did absolutely nothing. He took rooms, previously occupied by David Frost, with French windows that overlooked a croquet lawn. ‘As a result, I spent all my time playing croquet and did disastrously badly in my exams. Luckily, I got a bad room in my third year and did so much better.’ Sacks was invigorated by the ‘sheer pulse of so many people with so many ideas.’ He was a regular debater at the Cambridge Union, where he was once paired with a ‘suspiciously overweight and balding postgraduate’ called Clive James. In the summer of 1967, he bought a Greyhound bus ticket that took him round the

OBITUARIES

USA on a quest to speak to the country’s principal Orthodox rabbis. He was particularly inspired by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, who taught him the importance of sharing lessons of the Jewish faith not just with Jews but with all of humanity. Back at Cambridge in 1968, he espied a young woman walking across the courtyard at King’s College. ‘She radiated joy,’ he recalled. Elaine Taylor was studying radiography and fell in love with him at first sight. ‘It must have taken me three weeks to propose,’ Sacks recalled. ‘I bought a ring at Woolworths and got on one knee at Oxford Circus. I never had the slightest doubt.’ They married in 1970. She survives him along with their son, Joshua, who works for a software development company, and their daughters, Dina, a lawyer, and Gila, a civil servant. By the time he graduated with first-class honours in moral science (philosophy), Sacks had abandoned his early ambition to become an accountant. Instead, he spent time studying at a religious seminary in Israel, which he described as ‘a piece of 18th-century Europe transplanted amid orange groves.’ He returned some months later ‘with an enormous beard and a very pious look in my eyes’. When his parents turned up to meet him at the airport, they recognised him only by the coat he was wearing. Sacks went on to study for a master’s in moral philosophy at New College, Oxford, and in 1973 was appointed lecturer in Jewish philosophy at Jews’ College, London. ‘There came a moment after I’d been teaching philosophy for a couple of years when I looked around my contemporaries, many of whom had become deeply religious, but very few of them had decided to become rabbis. In fact, none of them had. I felt each of them could become better rabbis than me, but there’s a saying in Judaism, “when no one else is prepared to lead you have to try to lead” and I felt that applied to me. I never felt particularly gifted or qualified to become a rabbi. I did it because I heard a voice telling me to be one.’ He was ordained in 1976 and quickly made his mark, appointed as minister of the Golders Green Synagogue in 1978 and the Marble Arch congregation in 1983. By the late 1980s it seemed he was going to be wooed by a big American synagogue but then the idea of the chief rabbinate loomed. Aged 43, he was the youngest holder of the office when officially installed in September 1991, the sixth to bear the title of Chief Rabbi. It was pointed out that his upbringing made him different from many of his predecessors, to which Sacks replied: ‘I grew up here and I love Britain. I think to be a Jew in the last 1,800 years is to learn how to be faithful to your Jewish heritage while interacting with another culture, in my case the English culture in which I grew up and to which I’m very attached to.’ His appointment was widely praised inside Jewry. Sacks made it clear that he was going to let people know how he felt on the issues of the day, which is why he was one of the first religious leaders to have a website. He was also going to listen to people and would encourage all sections of the Anglo-Jewish community to work together.

OBITUARIES

He set about revitalising Britain’s Jewish community in the face of declining congregations, calling for a ‘Decade of Renewal’ based on five central values: ‘Love of every Jew, love of learning, love of God, a profound contribution to British society, and an unequivocal attachment to Israel.’ The next twenty-two years, when serving as Chief Rabbi, were eventful both within and beyond the Jewish community. By dint of his post and his approach to it, Sacks became the de facto spokesperson of the Jewish community on multiple matters, an author of many books and weekly columns and grew into a role as one of the UK’s leading public intellectuals. Of course, he also faced several challenges and controversies, especially within the Jewish community, but was able to withstand these and focus on his incredible ability to inspire and promote Jewish life. By the end of his tenure in September 2013, his impact was lauded throughout the Jewish community and far beyond. His rabbinic and educational legacy continues through many rabbis and educators worldwide who have been inspired by his teaching and strategic thinking. When he retired from office, Sacks took a deservedly upbeat view of his time as Chief Rabbi. ‘We built more Jewish schools than in any other period of Anglo-Jewish history. Our prayer services were terribly boring and now they are lively, engaging and participative,’ he said. He also felt that Britain’s Jewish community was ‘more self-confident’ than when he took office. ‘Jews are prepared to be recognised as Jews,’ he said. Sacks’ growing stature in the outside world had helped. In 2005 he was knighted and four years later he was granted a peerage, taking the title Baron Sacks of Aldgate. In 2016 he won the Templeton prize, a £1.1 million award established by the American businessman and philanthropist Sir John Templeton to recognise individuals who have made exceptional contributions to spirituality in the modern world. Previous recipients included Mother Teresa. During his life as a rabbi, Sacks had remained a prolific academic. At the start of his chief rabbinate, he was a visiting professor at Essex University, lecturing on philosophy. He was also a visiting professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a demonstration of his commitment to Israel. In later years he spent more time abroad, particularly in America, where he became a professor at New York University and Yeshiva University. His twenty-eighth book, Not in God’s Name: Confronting Religious Violence, was published in 2015. He remained a frequent voice on Radio 4 and a regular contributor to newspapers, in addition to the distribution of his weekly Bible commentaries.

OBITUARIES

Sacks was a vegetarian and a daily jogger. He enjoyed classical music. ‘I sometimes feel quite depressed by the sheer difficulty of the tasks I have set myself’, he once wrote,’ and when I fall into that temporary despair music lifts me up and allows me to go back fighting into the world.’ He had few other hobbies apart from thinking and writing. On Desert Island Discs, he asked for all twenty volumes of the Talmud and a large supply of pencils as his luxury and admitted that he would happily while away his seclusion writing commentaries in the margins. Towards the end of his life, he was still only ‘about halfway’ through the volumes he wanted to write. Morality: Restoring the Common Good in Divided Times was published in 2020. His final Credo column in The Times in August 2013 remains a powerful statement of belief. ‘I believe faith is part of what makes us human. It is a basic attitude of trust that always goes beyond the available evidence, but without which we would do nothing great. Without faith in one another we could not risk the vulnerability of love. Without faith in the future, we would not choose to have a child. Without faith in the intelligibility of the universe we would not do science. Without faith in our fellow citizens, we would not have a free society.’ After his death, The Rabbi Sacks Legacy was established to perpetuate his life’s work, teaching and impact.

QUINTANA, EUTIQUIO (JOHN) 15 December 2021 Fellows’ Butler (1975-95) Many Fellows and former students at Caius will have fond memories of John Quintana, who was Fellows’ Butler for twenty years until he retired in 1995. Originally from Segovia in Spain, he had moved to Cambridge as a young man. He joined Caius ten years before he assumed the post of Fellows’ Butler following the death of Lionel Rumbelow. From early on, he was known in the College as ‘John’ rather than by his original name Eutiquio. In the photograph above, taken in the White Room, John is pictured second from left. Derek stands to the right of him and on his left is his nephew Tonin Hernando. John also featured in the famous ‘Fellows at Dessert’ painting, which now hangs in the Master’s Lodge.

OBITUARIES

As Fellows’ Butler, he was known for his extraordinary hard work, his unfailing courtesy to all, and his complete unflappability in the face of any mishaps in Hall or other College dining venues. Alongside his untiring work for the College, John and his wife, who was a nurse, ran a very successful Bed & Breakfast on Barton Road near the College playing field. He remained devoted to the College even after his retirement. He took a great interest in news from the College. He read The Caian carefully and attended College events regularly. He also became a generous benefactor of the College and made regular donations. After a long period of ill-health, he died at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge aged 88. His much-beloved wife Maria predeceased him; to the end, he remained a devoted father to Jacqueline and Lesley, who survive him.

Obituaries of Caians

BIRD, RICHARD SIMPSON (1961), 4 April 2022 His wife Norma, with contributions from Richard’s colleagues and friends writes: Born in London during the war, Richard spent his formative years with his parents and sister Jackie living in the Horseshoe and Wheatsheaf pub, virtually under London Bridge. It was not, he said, until he got to Cambridge that he realised that trees lost their leaves in autumn! During a childhood spent playing on bombsites, Richard grew into a cheeky, loquacious lad, who was so evidently bright that he was sent to grammar school a year early. At St Olave’s Grammar School he was an academic high-flyer, played rugby for the school and enjoyed participating in school plays. There was only one glitch (at least the only one remembered) in his school career: in the sixth form he narrowly escaped expulsion for starting a poker school. Nevertheless, he eventually left to read Mathematics at Caius. After graduation, he had a brief spell working in sales for ICT, the mainframe computer company, then moved on to postgraduate study at the University of London Institute of Computer Science. Richard married Norma Lapworth in 1967 and they enjoyed fifty-five years of married life. He took up a lectureship at the University of Reading in1972, moving to the Programming Research Group at the University of Oxford in 1983, where he stayed for the remainder of his career. He was promoted to Professor, served as Director, and finally retired in 2008. During this time, he was a Tutorial Fellow at Lincoln College. His research area was functional programming, an approach to computer programming centred around obeying the conventions of traditional mathematics. It was self-evident to him (in contrast to many) that programs are mathematical entities, manipulable in precisely the same way as quadratic equations. There was no immediate need for consideration of the capabilities of computer hardware, nor no entanglement in the vagaries of specific programming languages: just algebra, pure and simple. He was not so interested in the program you actually end up with, so much as the process by which you got there, and how you knew you had got to the right place. It was not enough for a program to be correct; it had to be seen to be correct.

OBITUARIES

In 1980 at IFIP Working Group 2.1 (the group that had designed the seminal programming language Algol68) Richard met Lambert Meertens from Amsterdam, with whom he had a very fruitful collaboration developing the Bird-Meertens Formalism, or Squiggol to its friends. This was a concise and somewhat cryptic algebraic program notation with a powerful accompanying corpus of theorems, supporting the equational reasoning style that Richard sought. Cezar Ionescu remembers being apprehensive about first meeting Richard at WG2.1. You should never meet your heroes, but Cezar says he ‘was exactly the way I had imagined him to be: very sharp, funny, wise. We talked about opera and Shakespeare, and fought (and won!) a hard battle for tap water with the hotel staff.’ Richard was known and respected around the world for the quality of his writing, both in his scientific papers and in the seven books he published. The second book, Introduction to Functional Programming (1988, with Phil Wadler), set out his vision for teaching functional programming. Graham Hutton, another functional programmer, wrote to say: ‘Richard set the standards for elegance and clarity, and the original Bird & Wadler is my all-time favourite book. It still stands up today as one of the best programming books ever written – every page is a gem.’ The next book, Algebra of Programming (1996, with Oege de Moor), was much more research-oriented, extending his Squiggol agenda from functions to relations. Tim Sears, who works in microchip design, tweeted: ‘This book blew my mind regarding what the relationship could be between math, programming, and systems. I never met Richard, but his work has had a profound impact on me.’ Richard’s fifth book, Pearls of Functional Algorithm Design (2010) collected and re-polished some of the ‘Functional Pearls’ he had published over the years. He had established and was the founding editor of the ‘Functional Pearls’ column, from the very first issue in 1991 of the Journal of Functional Programming until he retired in 2008. Jon Bentley explained: ‘Just as natural pearls grow from grains of sand that have irritated oysters, these programming pearls have grown from real problems that have irritated programmers. The programs are fun, and they teach important programming techniques and fundamental design principles.’ Richard defined ‘Functional Pearls’ as ‘polished, elegant, instructive, entertaining.’ He had high standards for them: he advised reviewers of these submissions to ‘stop reading when you get bored, or the material gets too complicated, or too much specialist knowledge is needed, or the writing is bad.’ ‘Functional Pearls’ are the epitome of Richard’s writing style. Erik Meijer, a fellow Squiggolist, called him ‘the poet laureate of functional programming.’ Greg Fitzgerald, a blockchain entrepreneur, agreed, tweeting that ‘when life got hard, I’d read his pearls to settle my mind. His proofs read like poetry.’ Ed Kmett, another developer, said that Richard’s pearls book ‘is the only real clear exposition of how to think like a functional programmer that I’ve ever seen.’

OBITUARIES

Despite the global influence of his publications, Richard always saw teaching as his main interest and duty; research was something he did for relaxation. A colleague, Professor Andrew Ker wrote to Richard saying: ‘You taught me data structures and algorithms when I was a first year, and of course I read your book. Something that particularly sticks in my mind is the way you expressed datatype invariants. When I started teaching, I used the same approach. Now I see that some of my ex-students, doing tutorial teaching for me, are showing the same approach to their own students. I’ve come to see that passing on our knowledge to the next generation is the most important thing we do, even more than generating new knowledge through research. And the ideas and attitudes persist through the generations. Your influence and example extends far beyond what you know, and countless students are grateful for it.’ Students have written to say his lectures were a joy to attend, because of their entertaining delivery and to express gratitude for his welcome: ‘no Herr Professor Doktor here, we are all colleagues.’ Richard was open, egalitarian, humble about his abilities and non-competitive. The breadth of his interests was such that he easily connected with a wide range of people. In addition to being a film buff and a keen player of chess, bridge, and poker, he was very well read and could always hold his own in any discussion of the merits of James Joyce. Conversation with him was always buoyed up with jokes and laughter. He was not vain nor in any way an egotist. His former colleague Carroll Morgan writes: ‘He was the only person who seemed to me to be down-to-earth, “normal”, and with whom one could speak without having to read between many lines.’ In his tribute to Richard, Stephen Gill, Richard’s colleague and chum from Lincoln College, closed with an observation made by Sir Walter Scott. Musing about farewells, Scott remarked in his journal: ‘there are friends whom it sincerely touches one to part with. It is the cement of life-giving way in a moment.’ Richard’s going robs us all of some bonding, human strength, the cement of life. He is and will continue to be much missed.

BRICUSSE, LESLIE CHARLES (1951), 19 October 2021 Leslie Bricusse OBE was an Oscar and Grammy-winning writer-composer-lyricist of many hits of stage and screen during a long and distinguished career. Leslie was born in London on 29 January 1931 and educated at University College School before matriculating at Caius to study Modern and Medieval Languages in October 1951. It was at Caius where his creative talents first prospered. He was President of the Footlights Revue Club and founded the Musical Comedy Club. The first two musical shows which he co-authored, directed and performed in, Out of the Blue and Lady at the Wheel, were created while a student at Caius and made their way to London’s West End.

OBITUARIES

He went on to write the book, music and/or lyrics for more than 40 musical films during his career, enjoying collaborations with high-profile artists. He was nominated for 10 Oscars, nine Grammys and four Tony Awards. In 1967 he won the Oscar for Best Song, for ‘Talk to the Animals’ from Doctor Dolittle. A second Oscar followed in 1982 for Best Music Score for Victor/ Victoria, shared with Henry Mancini. He won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year for ‘What Kind of Fool am I’ in 1962, shared with Anthony Newley. The song became a hit performed by Sammy Davis Jr, who recorded more than sixty of Leslie’s songs. He also won eight Ivor Novello Awards. Leslie enjoyed a long and successful collaboration with Anthony Newley, which included writing the film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory in 1971, based on the children’s book by Roald Dahl. Gene Wilder played Willy Wonka in the film, and the song ‘Candyman’ was popular following broadcast. In 1989, he received the Kennedy Award for consistent excellence in British songwriting, bestowed by the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors, and was inducted into the American Songwriters’ Hall of Fame. He was only the fourth Englishman to be honoured in this way, after Noel Coward, John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Major artists including Sammy Davis Jr, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Judy Garland, Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, Shirley Bassey, Tom Jones, Julie Andrews, Liza Minnelli, Nina Simone, Placido Domingo, Robbie Williams, Mariah Carey and Michael Bublé are among the stars to have recorded his songs. He also wrote the theme songs for two James Bond films: Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice. Dame Joan Collins wrote on Instagram: “One of the giant songwriters of our time, writer of #candyman #goldfinger amongst so many other hits, and my great friend Leslie Bricusse has sadly died today. He and his beautiful Evie have been in my life for over 50 years. I will miss him terribly, as will his many friends.” Leslie is survived by his wife Evie and son Adam. Caius Emeritus Fellow Dr Anne Lyon, who knew Leslie, writes as follows: I have nothing but admiration for Leslie and his beautiful wife of over 60 years, Evie. In 2015 it was pure joy to see this remarkable Caian surrounded by TV and film stars from his era at the world premiere of Pure Imagination – The Songs of Leslie Bricusse in a West End Theatre.

OBITUARIES

His autobiography of the same name includes a delightful account of the story he loved to tell of the many challenges presented by ‘climbing in’ to Caius on a night when all the usual points of entry were closed. He had many fond memories of his days at Caius, saying ‘Caius was the beginning and the reason it all happened, where I realised the sort of songs I wanted to write.’ When introduced to the young Caian composer Tommy Hewitt-Jones (2003), he took great pleasure in enthusiastically developing this link between two generations of Caius composers. He will be greatly missed by so many; he was a truly memorable Caian.

BROTHERTON, DAVID IAN (1960), 14 July 2022 Ian Brotherton, as he was known to all, was born in Leeds in 1941. In 1960 he gained a place at Gonville and Caius College to study Mechanical Sciences. There he met his future wife Jenny, who was studying at Newnham, and made lifelong friends. He worked as a civil engineer in London after graduating in 1963, but soon followed his passion for nature, initially with the Countryside Commission and then the Yorkshire Dales National Park. He gained both a MSC (1970) and doctorate (1974) in Conservation from University College London before becoming a senior lecturer in landscape design at the University of Sheffield. On retirement he and Jenny returned to what they considered their true home, the Yorkshire Dales. As author of numerous papers, books and articles in journals as well as editor of the Landscape Institute Journal he continued research and education throughout his life. He was a member of the executive committee of the Council for the Protection of Rural England, a member of the Yorkshire Rural Community Council, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, director of the Landscape Research Group, member of the British Ecological Society and was recognised by Marquis Who’s Who for his contributions to landscape architecture and design. He is survived by his loving wife Jenny, his two children Simon (1985) and Vanessa and six grandchildren in Wales and New Zealand.

BRUCE, IAN T.D, M.A, LL.M., D.L. (1950), 1 July 2022 His daughter, Mrs Sally Cowburn, has provided this obituary. Ian Bruce, died on 1 July 2022 aged 91 years. He was born in Woodford, London and moved to Norwich aged six. He was educated at Norwich Grammar School and Framlingham College in Suffolk. Following his two years National Service in the Royal Signals, he took up his place at Caius to study law. He achieved his BA in 1956, LLB in 1957 and his MA in 1958. During his time at Cambridge, he was proud to be Secretary of the boat club and coxed a successful Caius College boat in the bumps of 1954. The

rudder of the boat with the names and weights of the crew remains on display in his house today. He became a solicitor in Great Yarmouth, reaching Senior Partner in the firm which became Howard, Killin and Bruce. He continued his military career with the Territorial Army for twenty-five years, ending as a Major, Royal Signals. He enjoyed meeting and working with people, becoming a pillar of the community in Great Yarmouth and further afield in Norfolk, through joining several organisations including the Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary Club, and the Freemasons. He left his mark in Great Yarmouth through spearheading the legislation required for the town’s outer harbour. His leadership skills were invaluable as Provincial Grand Master and then Most Excellent Grand Superintendent of the Freemasons in Norfolk. He was asked to be a Deputy Lieutenant for Norfolk under Sir Timothy Coleman, and he relished the execution of various ceremonial events that this position entailed. He was a much-loved husband to Jill (married for sixty-one years) and devoted father to Sally, Fiona, Rosemary and Colin, and beloved grandpa to ten grandchildren. He lived life to the full, bringing energy, purpose and laughter to his many roles. He leaves many happy memories.

COWARD, PHILIP HUDSON (1953), 26 April 2022 Philip Hudson Coward died on 26 April 2022 aged 89 years. He was born in West London in 1933 and was evacuated to Fleetwood, during the war, where he attended Rossall School. He won an exhibition to Caius and read Law. He decided to complete his National Service before taking his place at Cambridge and was commissioned as an officer in the Royal Artillery. At Caius he developed his interest in choral singing. He was an active member of the college boat club, where he rowed for the first eight and was club secretary. He achieved a BA in law in 1956 and decided to embark on a career in industry. He worked for Heinz and Mars before spending the significant part of his career with Cavenham foods. After running his own health food business in Worcester, he changed career to become a Microsoft programme instructor, retiring in 1998. He was a loving husband to Margaret, whom he married in 1958 and a devoted father. He will be sadly missed by his wife, three children, Stephen, Susan, and Louise, and his four grandchildren.

OBITUARIES

CRILLY, ADRIAN JOHN (1970), 15 December 2021 His brother Anthony wrote in The Guardian: The life of my brother Adrian Crilly, who has died aged 70, began with great academic promise, but unhappily his aspirations were frustrated. Born in Bristol, the son of Alexander, a school science teacher, and Vera, a secretary, Adrian was the youngest in a family of four children. He was educated at St Brendan’s college in the city and progressed to Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, to study English. Early on in his course he was overtaken by mental health problems. These cut short his time at Cambridge and remained with him for the rest of his life. He worked for a short period at the Bristol Royal Infirmary as a porter, but his poor health precluded sustained employment. He lived in the Bedminster district of Bristol for nearly fifty years, intermittently broken by periods in hospitals and mental health institutions. Adrian was an imaginative child who created and inhabited a make-believe world, including his town of ‘Kegworth’, where he managed its football team and charted its movement up and down a league table. At St Brendan’s he was inspired by teachers of English literature and the history of art. He became an accomplished artist in oils and showed an attraction to poetry, Thomas Hardy being among his favourites. While at Caius he was taught by the modern poet JH (Jeremy) Prynne, whose work he admired. In Bedminster he was most content with life around his books, and he accumulated a large library. He was a keen motorcyclist, but an abiding image is of him chain-smoking with a poetry book six inches from his nose, oblivious of his surroundings. His early love of English literature and his knowledge of it remained undimmed. He was completely impractical and lived, at first with a friend and later alone, in a ramshackle Victorian house which needed upkeep but never received it. He felt at home in the Bedminster village, where people knew him – in second-hand bookshops, coffee shops and at the local Windmill City farm, where he helped out from time to time. Later his health problems became more acute and in 2017 he moved to a care home, where his reclusive life of study continued. In the summer of 2021, he had a stroke. He is survived by his siblings, Andrew, Veronica and me.

OBITUARIES

DAVIES, JOHN ORMOND (1961) 2 August 2022 His wife Angela writes: John was born in 1942. His father died when he was thirteen years old which made him determined to fulfil his father’s wish for him to study at Cambridge. Initially winning a scholarship to study engineering, he quickly switched to law and spent three happy years at Caius, in his own words partying, flying planes and studying in the time remaining. After university John qualified as a solicitor and remained in the law all his working life, acting as General Counsel and as Board Member for Wilkinson Sword and later the Burton Group. John read The Times online every day, but his real love was the written word in his library of literature, histories and biographies. He also loved going to the theatre. Watching Shakespeare was his great love and seeing the plays at Stratford-upon-Avon was a particular delight. He also enjoyed works from modern playwrights and saw many new productions in London, Oxford Playhouse and other venues. John also loved travel, particularly as an undergraduate and he spent many happy holidays touring Europe and further afield with fellow students some of whom became life-long friends. Later his travel was a bit more luxurious, with memorable holidays in Europe, Egypt and the far East. John was very much a family man and took great pride in his two daughters and their husbands. He died peacefully from thyroid cancer with his beloved family by his side just four months after his cancer was diagnosed. He will be greatly missed by all his family and friends.

EDGAR, WILLIAM MACREADIE (Bill) (1941) 10. May 2020 His son George Edgar, writes: My father, Dr William Macreadie Edgar, known as Bill, read Natural Sciences at Caius, and in 1946 qualified as a doctor at Westminster Medical School, where he was subsequently Senior Lecturer in Microbiology, in parallel to his duties at Westminster Hospital. He did his national service in the RAMC in East Africa. He was a keen and expert climber, in Wales, Scotland and the Alps, and was the designated doctor on a 1956 expedition to the Himalayas, sponsored by the Daily Mail to look for evidence of the existence of the Yeti (of which he was always sceptical). He was awarded his MD in 1961.

OBITUARIES

Bill married Freda, a fellow doctor, in 1958. They moved in 1962 to West Yorkshire, where he spent the rest of his professional life as a consultant pathologist and microbiologist, based at Bradford Royal Infirmary but also working and teaching at other hospitals in Bradford and Leeds. A former colleague said of him that ‘he was an inspirational teacher and a pillar of moral rectitude, setting an example we tried hard to follow.’ He retired in 1987. My father was a passionate birdwatcher, and an active member of the British Trust for Ornithology and the Bradford Ornithological Group. He remained a keen mountaineer after his retirement, completing the Munros (peaks and tops), as well as the Welsh, English and Irish 3000-footers. His last expedition was up Snowdon’s Crib Goch ridge in 2008, at the age of 85. He is greatly missed by Freda, their children Sarah, George and John, and their grandchildren Anna, Iain, Katerina and Alexander.

EDWARDS, JOHN M. (1955), 20 April 2022 His son, The Revd Peter Edwards, writes: Mr John M. Edwards, MA, FRCO, died on 20 April 2022 aged 85 years. He was born in Abergavenny in 1937, the son of a Methodist minister. At the age of eighteen he won an organ scholarship to Caius, and on graduating he taught music at Maidstone Grammar School. In 1963 John moved to become Head of Music at Bury Grammar School, Lancashire, where he established music in the school largely from scratch, setting up a choral society and orchestra and putting on many school productions. A committed Christian, John settled at Bolton Road Methodist Church, Bury, where he became organist and choirmaster. It was there that he met Joan Calverley, whom he married in 1968. They were married for forty-one years until Joan’s death in 2009. They are survived by their five children: Robert, Christopher, Timothy, Peter and Catherine. Outside of school and church, John was conductor of Bury Choral Society for thirtynine years. This was a big part of his life, and although he retired fifteen years ago, a minute’s silence was held to remember John at a rehearsal following his death. A special concert programme was dedicated to him in November 2022, including repertoire he particularly loved, especially the music of J.S. Bach.

OBITUARIES

Many have described John as a gentle man – and unsurprisingly, a ‘gentleman’ – yet such gentleness signified great strength. He had the gift of patience for those he taught and will be remembered as a great encourager. He would consistently look for things to give thanks for, and often reminded us that the Christian way is never to worry but to rejoice in and through all circumstances. John’s love of people meant that he was known for his warmth and hospitality. He was a kind and humble man who, despite being a Fellow of the Royal College of Organists, chose to serve God in his local Methodist Church. He had a deep devotion to Christ his Saviour, and although we grieve that his earthly life is now over, we rejoice that for him his eternal life with Christ has now begun.

FABER, VERNON CHARLES (1951), 8 June 2022 His daughter and son write: Vernon Faber was born and spent his early years in Finchley, London, where he experienced the Blitz during the war. He was educated at Shrewsbury School, after which he studied Medicine at Caius. It was in Cambridge that he met Susan whom he later married. Having completed his degree, Vernon and Susan moved to London where he completed his medical training, as a houseman, at St. Bartholomew’s Hospital. He intended to specialise in Paediatric medicine but, with a young family, he realised that clinical medicine would impact on family life, which led him to change direction into general practice. The family moved initially to Reading and then onto Camberley, Surrey, where Vernon became a partner in a newly formed practice where he remained for his professional life. During this time Vernon also studied anaesthetics and became, along with his general practice, an anaesthetist at the local hospital. In his personal life, Vernon pursued his other interests. His passion was for hill walking and mountaineering which he indulged with regular expeditions to Scotland and Cumbria. His other interests included the study of ancient Greek and Roman history, which led him to give many lectures for the University of the Third Age. On retirement, Vernon and Susan moved to Wiltshire and spent many years enjoying their surroundings and community in the Vale of Pewsey where Vernon supported his local church as treasurer for the Parochial Church Council. Vernon can be best described thus: he was selfless, with a strong moral code and a conviction to do the right thing. He made many personal sacrifices to benefit his family

and others because, as he would say: ‘It is the right thing to do’. He was a gentleman but, above all, he was a gentle man. Vernon Faber survived his wife Susan by eight months. Their ashes are both interred at All Saints’ Church, Stanton St. Bernard, Wiltshire and they are survived by their children Ruth and Matthew and their four grandchildren.

HARBORNE, EDGAR SHERRIF (1952), 3 October 2021 Edgar Sherriff Harborne, who has died aged 87 years, was an underwriting member at Lloyd’s of London for nearly forty years. Edgar made a significant contribution to Lloyd’s investors via his consultancy specialising in statistical performance analysis of Lloyd’s syndicates. His research resulted in a better understanding and ranking of syndicate performance and this understanding of historical data led to a very successful personal portfolio of underwriting. His methodology continues to be used by Lloyd’s of London agencies. Edgar distinguished himself at Clifton College, Bristol and later at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge University, where the Harborne Tankard is awarded annually to a member of the Caius Boat Club, who is selected for their leadership in a successful Boat and their high academic achievement. Edgar firmly believed that it is perfectly possible to do well both academically and athletically, which has been confirmed by the University’s research into Blues and academic performance. Although Edgar matriculated as an Exhibitioner to read Natural Sciences, he decided not to pursue Medicine as a career after graduation. Instead, following his National Service with the Royal Engineers, Edgar joined Rowntree & Co as a production assistant in 1957. Whilst working at Rowntree & Co, Edgar met Joan Robinson, and they were married in 1959 and had three children. Edgar’s career changed after qualifying in Statistics and having considerable success from applying statistical methods to production problems at work. He moved out of operational research into management consultancy at Arthur Anderson, and then to founding a partnership providing software programming and services. Edgar was a Fellow of the Institute of Statisticians, which is now part of the Royal Statistical Society. The partnership was profitable and, together with Edgar’s reputation for providing consultancy in statistical analysis at Martin Frizzell Motor Insurance, it led to Edgar being invited to join Lloyd’s of London. At Clifton, Edgar chose rowing as his sport because his eyesight was not sharp enough

for playing to a high standard in the rugby 1st XV. Unusually, perhaps, he was taught to row on both stroke and bow sides and he claimed to be one of the few oarsmen who could do this with ease. At Caius, Edgar went on to secure a place in the 1st VIII boat and won his blade in the Bumps races. Rowing was a lifelong passion: he owned his own boat and rowed his last veteran’s race in the Cologne Regatta aged fifty-nine. Edgar and Joan moved to Monaco in 1985 after their children had left home. They settled at Cap-d’Ail in a fine property with a large terrace overlooking the Mediterranean and enjoyed expat life. Edgar continued to row with various crews in the South of France. A second lifelong passion was military history. Edgar and Joan moved temporarily from Cap-d’Ail to Cambridge so that Edgar could spend time on researching battle tactics when in a surrender situation for the Ministry of Defence. He held a Senior Research Associateship post with the Centre for International Studies. During his second period at Cambridge, Edgar assisted a campaign to look at the feasibility of building a rowing lake for Cambridge University, rather like Dorney Lake, Eton, which was used for the 2012 London Olympics. Edgar was a city liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Farriers and supported many charities. His Christian faith was important to him, and he made special donations to the churches he attended: St Michael’s Church in Beaulieu-sur-Mer and St Andrew’s Church in Ham. Edgar is survived by Joan, his loving wife of sixty-two years, and two sons, Christopher and Richard, both businessmen, and six grandchildren. Katharine, his daughter, predeceased him in 2021.

HOWELL JONES, DAVID (1957), 10 June 2020 David Howell Jones was the leading light of the Caius Club in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century whose commitment and hard work made it into the society that we know today. David was born in 1936 in Leamington Spa. His father Eustace Lloyd Howell Jones was an ophthalmic surgeon who had served in the First World War and who during the Second World War was the expert to whom casualties with eye damage were flown for surgery. David’s maternal grandfather was also a Caian medic: Gerald Alderson (1903) a gynaecological and obstetrical surgeon.

OBITUARIES

105

David was educated at Arnold Lodge Henley-in-Ardern before Kingswood, Bath. On leaving Kingswood he served his national service in the Royal Dragoons mostly in Germany. In 1957 he was admitted to Caius to read Law and graduated BA in 1960 and LL.B. in 1961. He qualified as a Solicitor in 1963 and joined Price, Williams and Ostler, where he became partner in 1966. He retired as senior partner in 1998 whereupon he took up various consultancies. David was an exceptionally keen supporter of Caius throughout his life after graduation. He loved the College, the Boat Club, and especially the Caius Club which had been founded in 1907, and of which David had been a member of the ‘ad hoc’ committee under Dr Joe Bailey since his undergraduate days. David recognised the importance of the Club for keeping Caians in touch after going down. The ad hoc committee was in decline, and David was instrumental in gaining new recruits. With the departure of Dr Tubbs, he saw the need for a new secretary, and he acquired one by beating them at darts! He continued to strengthen the Club structure, becoming Chairman in 1994. He brought in a Treasurer and expanded the committee with younger recruits. David was keen to liaise closely with the new development directorship under Julie Deane and later Anne Lyon. He used to joke that development was about benefactors whereas he felt that the Club was about friends, but that a previous Caian, Dr Venn, could have shown the vast overlap with a simple diagram. Under David’s leadership the Club branched out. Previously there had been a single event, a dinner in Hall at Easter time, for Caians only. David expanded this to include guests, initially spouses, and then any guest. He arranged meetings in the JCR to gain new members of the club, and eventually arranged that all Caians should automatically become members. He agreed with the development director, Julie Deane, that the club would host a picnic on the last day of the Bumps. The first affair in 1996 was very damp indeed, but he persevered, directing the committee to organise a marquee for bad weather and necessary conveniences. The Bumps Event in June is extremely popular now, and David attended every such event. Not satisfied with this innovation, David and his wife June created a Club event in London, held at the Oxford and Cambridge Club. This popular event continued to be organised by David and June personally for ten years until David’s health began to fail. Alongside his work for the Caius Club, David enjoyed travelling to France and enjoying the cuisine and visiting the vineyards. He worked out in the RAC gym several nights a week and continued to do so until it was closed due to Covid. At weekends he enjoyed polo at Guards Polo Club where he

106

OBITUARIES

was a member for many years. He was also a great supporter of Henley Regatta and was a member of the Stewards and Leander Club. He organised large picnics to which all Caians were welcome. David married his wife June in 1964 at the church in Stratford-upon-Avon where Shakespeare is buried. They met at a pub called The Dirty Duck which was popular with members of the Shakespeare Theatre Company. They were married for fifty-six years. He very much valued his memories of Caius where he made many long-lasting friends and through the Caius Club continued to support the college wherever possible. His great legacy is the expansion and continuation of the Caius Club, which still attracts older and younger Caians to its events in good numbers. He is sorely missed by many.

HUNGERFORD, JOHN (1963), 31 October 2021 His wife Yvonne writes: Born in 1944 in Manchester, John’s family background was not medical, but the intense curiosity which marked his whole life led to the natural sciences and thence to medicine. John went up to Caius to read Natural Sciences in 1963 with a Tancred scholarship. His clinical training was completed at Charing Cross Hospital where he held several general appointments after qualifying in 1969. John set out on the path of ophthalmology at the Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford in 1971 and continued with registrar appointments at Moorfields before entering the formal two-year residency there from 1975. He was working jointly at Moorfields and University College Hospital, specialising in paediatric and neonatal ophthalmology in 1982 when, following an unexpected retirement, John was invited to ‘step in’ to cover ophthalmic oncology at St Bartholomew’s Hospital. The following year he was appointed Director of the Ocular Oncology Service there and at Moorfields, and so he continued until retirement. Perhaps John’s greatest global health impact was the discovery, with his colleague Judith Kingston, of systemic chemotherapy for treatment of retinoblastoma, a cruel disease which can cause blindness and death in babies and very young children. John was the first to use this treatment which, through his teaching, subsequently spread around the world and undoubtedly transformed the lives of thousands of babies. Adult patients suffering from melanoma were also part of John’s concern. He introduced and organised the first proton beam therapy in the UK for melanomas of the eye at Clatterbridge Hospital, The Wirral. John’s many other achievements include a long legacy of training ocular oncologists from across the world who went on to develop their own practices spreading the

107

techniques he pioneered across the globe thereby saving lives and sight for thousands. He served on many national and international committees and gave countless academic lectures globally. He published more than two hundred papers and book chapters on ocular oncology and was recognised globally with several awards and medals including the Ridley Medal in the UK, the Stallard Medal from the International Society of Ocular Oncology, a Knighthood of the Order of the Falcon of Iceland, and The Officer’s Cross of the Order of Merit of the Republic of Poland. Those who knew John, as colleague, teacher, consultant, or friend, remember his kindness and personal modesty as well as his endless curiosity and enthusiasm. He loved music and architecture, and he enjoyed travelling whenever his heavy patient schedule allowed. His sense of fun and dry wit, and the open hospitality with which he shared his home will be sorely missed by his family and many whose lives he touched worldwide. John was proud of his association with Caius and always grateful for the scientific grounding and the confidence that Cambridge gave him. For professional presentations it was his custom to wear his Caius tie and his family ensured that he wore it to his grave.

ITZAHAKI, SHAUL (1957), 29 April 2022 His wife Ruth writes: Dr Shaul Itzhaki died on 29 April 2022 after a long illness. He was born on June 5, 1921, in Baghdad, Iraq, into a Jewish family which, like others in the Jewish community, lived at that time totally amicably with their Moslem and Christian neighbours. His childhood was happy in his large extended family, and he greatly exploring various regions of Iraq with his friends, and swimming in the Tigris. He was proud of his excellent education at the French-based Alliance Israélite Universelle, learning to talk fluently in both French and English besides Arabic, and proficiently in Hebrew. At the Pharmacy college, Iraqi Royal Faculty of Medicine in Baghdad, he graduated in pharmacy, the subject closest to the medical course that he would have chosen had there not been a quota of Jewish students. When anti-Jewish feelings, which had previously arisen intermittently, started to increase in 1945, he decided to leave for Palestine. There he was fortunate in being awarded a grant at the Department of Biochemistry in the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School, in Jerusalem, which supported his research on carbohydrate metabolism, leading to a PhD in 1955. That same year he moved to England, to work in the Department of Radiotherapeutics in the University of Cambridge. He joined Caius as a research student and was awarded a Cambridge PhD in 1961 for his research on the metabolism of nucleic acid sugars. Subsequently he obtained a lectureship in the Department of Biochemistry, University

of Manchester, and continued lecturing and researching until his retirement in 1988. He subsequently enjoyed listening to talks at the University’s Centre for Jewish Studies, and at Manchester Metropolitan University, as well as attending concerts and films, and travelling abroad. In 2013 he and his wife moved to Oxford, to be nearer their daughters, living respectively in Oxford and Cambridge. There too he enjoyed talks, especially at the Oxford Martin School and the Ashmolean Museum, until his progressive illness made it too difficult to attend. Shaul’s range of interests was wide, and he was always asking penetrating questions but in his usual gentle and courteous manner, a characteristic greatly appreciated by his research students, friends and family. Another characteristic was his nostalgia for the Iraq that he had known and loved, and he would have been so very happy if he could have returned for a visit. He was a loving husband, companion and best friend of his wife, Ruth, and will be greatly missed by her, his two daughters and five grandchildren.

JONES, LEONARD (LEN) LESLIE (1954), 17 June 2022 His son Chris writes: Len was born on 16th October 1931, in Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Unfortunately, his father died in a mining accident when he was just a few months old. His mother remarried, and he was brought up by his mother and stepfather, with his half-sister, Vera and half-brother Frank. He attended Doncaster Grammar School, where as a result of his excellence in his exams, he was granted a Yorkshire County Major Scholarship Award. This also qualified Len to be awarded a place at Gonville and Caius College to study engineering. First, however, Len had to do his National Service, where he was commissioned and posted as an adjutant to a Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers research unit. After National Service, Len went up to Cambridge. Whilst there, he was a keen sportsman and represented the university in the pole vault. He graduated in 1954 and married Doris Watson, whom he had met on an army church holiday in 1948, soon after. His son Chris was born in 1960, followed by Stephen in 1962. ` Len started work with the civil engineering consultant Sir Alexander Gibb and partners in London, where Doris also worked as a schoolteacher. He worked on the design of the Glascarnoch and Fannich Dams and was transferred to Scotland as assistant resident engineer on Fannich Dam in 1956. In 1958 he obtained a post at the Cement and Concrete Association laboratories, in Stoke Poges and lived nearby in Iver, Buckinghamshire. He published his first book, Ultimate Load Design of Reinforced and Pre-Stressed Concrete Structures, in 1961.

After moving to Birmingham in 1964, Len took up the post of Chief Structural Design Engineer with GKN reinforcements, where he published his second book, Yield-line Analysis of Slabs, in 1967. After moving to Sileby, Leicestershire in 1970, Len became full-time Professor of Structural engineering at Loughborough University. Whilst there, he worked on numerous national committees, particularly with the Engineering Council. He was also a judge for some years for the British Design Awards and the Toyota Invention of the Year. In 1985 he became Dean of the Engineering Faculty. He retired from the University in 1990. Len and Doris bought a canal cruiser in 1972, on which they spent many enjoyable holidays with their friends and family. He was a keen golfer at Rothley Park Golf Club, reaching a lowest handicap of 10. He was made Captain there in 1979. He and Doris shared hobbies of gardening, fishing and bird watching. Sadly, Len lost his wife Doris in 2012. After a long illness, Len passed away peacefully, at his home, aged 90. He is survived by his two sons and three grandchildren.

MARSH, DAVID MAX (1953), 19 August 2022 David Marsh, who has died aged 88, was one of the leading figures in English amateur golf during the second half of the twentieth century, both as a player and administrator, as well as being a one-time Chairman of Everton Football Club and a busy doctor in Liverpool. He was winner of the English Amateur Golf Championship in 1964 and 1970. He represented England on seventy-five occasions and became Captain of golf’s most famous body, the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews. He was born in Southport in April 1934 and went to the local grammar school, King George Vth. He then spent three happy years at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, playing golf for the University in all three years and captaining the side in his final year. He subsequently did his clinical training in Liverpool. He was picked to play in the Walker Cup in 1971 at St Andrews and after a topsy-turvy two days all rested on his match. Herbert Warren Wind wrote in The New Yorker: ‘Dr David Marsh, a general practitioner of great personal charm, earned himself a small chunk of immorality ... when he hit the shot that won the Walker Cup for Britain.’ It was over thirty years since Great Britain had achieved a win so there were great celebrations in St Andrews that night.

OBITUARIES

He was much involved in golf administration being Captain of Southport and Ainsdale Golf Club aged thirty-one, President of the English Golf Union in 1998 and Captain then President of the Oxford and Cambridge Golfing Society in 1998 and 2003. He sat on various Royal and Ancient Golf Club Committees before being appointed Captain. In 2011 he was appointed MBE for services to Amateur Golf, especially for his encouragement of young golfers. In 1988 he had also become an Everton director and served as chairman from 1991 until 1994. He chose to spend his working life in Kirkby, a new town on the outskirts of Liverpool where he was a much-loved GP for several decades. The British Medical Journal described him as a ‘therapeutic instrument in his own right.’ He was also a Fellow of the Faculty of Occupational Medicine and held occupational posts at various local companies and, in addition, he was the doctor at the Maghull Home for Epileptics. David always said that his Cambridge years were among the best years of his life. He and his wife were still going away on holidays with Caians from those years until last year. This included Roger Lomax (1953) – another Northerner. Roger and David met on the train to Cambridge when they travelled down for their interviews, so this was a Caius friendship that lasted seventy years. For all his great success in different areas, David remained a modest and humble man and was devoted to his family. He was married to Jennifer Heaton, and they had three children, Simon, Nigel and Fiona. Jennifer died in 2001. David later married again to Katy Pattinson.

MILES, PETER WALLACE (1953), 29 January 2022 Peter Miles was a widely respected entomologist and a world authority on Aphid saliva, just one subject of his published scientific research papers. He was renowned for his wickedly lively sense of humour and liked to tell the unknowing that he specialised particularly in the left salivary gland of the aphid. He could also quote Spike Milligan and the Goons brilliantly. In his youth he attended boarding school in England, displaying great creativity and a love of chemistry experiments. He once blew the skin off his nose in the garage making fireworks. After 1945, aged eighteen, Peter migrated with his parents to Rhodesia. His parents were unable to afford to finance a university education, so he worked in tobacco research and gained scholarships. He put himself through Rhodes University at Grahamstown before moving to Cambridge where he gained his PhD in entomology whilst also flying with the Cambridge Air Squadron. Born into a family of professional theatre performers, he followed their theatrical traditions, appearing in the 1946 comedy film Just William with Roddy MacDowell and later in various

University plays. At both Rhodes and Cambridge, he was heavily involved in student theatre and later went on to head the Adelaide university’s theatre guild in 1968. While at Cambridge, he met his life’s love, Sidsel Bendixen, a beautiful Norwegian. Peter subsequently took up a position with the Waite Agricultural Institute in Adelaide, Australia as a lecturer and he and Sidsel married there in 1957. He taught her to play bridge and she went on to become an international bridge champion. During Peter’s working years the family travelled extensively, including Peter’s sabbatical in the US and his time as Dean of Natural Studies at the University of Zambia where he taught his two young daughters a healthy respect for insects and lizards. On returning to Adelaide in 1973, Peter became chairman of Entomology, then Dean of Agricultural Science at the University of Adelaide. In their retirement, he and Sidsel hosted many long-term tertiary South Korean students in their Belair home and enjoyed maintaining their large flower, fruit and vegetable garden when they were not travelling to all the corners of the earth. After Sidsel died, Peter lived a quiet life but managed to publish a few novels he had been working on for many years. Peter leaves a legacy of many scientific publications including research papers and articles for Encyclopedia Britannica Yearbooks. He also leaves behind his daughters, brother Paul, three grandchildren, a great granddaughter, hundreds of students and many friends who were proud to drink a toast to his memory

MITTON, ANTHONY ROBERT (1969), 18 June 2022 His widow, the art historian Elizabeth McKellar, writes: Tony Mitton, the poet and children’s writer, died of leukemia on 18 June 2022 at the age of 71. He was born in Tripoli. His father was a soldier, so Tony and his brother had a peripatetic childhood, living in North Africa, Aldershot, West Germany and most formatively in Hong Kong. He went to Woolverstone Hall School, a state boarding grammar school where Tony felt settled and did well. In 1969 he gained a place at Gonville and Caius College to study English Literature where his director of studies was Jeremy Prynne. Having written poetry from an early age, Tony was determined to become a poet and academic. In his own words: ‘I worked myself into a breakdown.’ He negotiated a year off, threw away the pills and went to Switzerland to work as a cowherd: ‘I read almost nothing and just worked hard. It was intensely physical and very healing.’

He returned to Cambridge and gained his degree in 1973. Realising he was not suited to an academic life but still determined to be a poet, he did teacher training, qualified, and became a popular and successful primary school teacher and an expert in using poetry to facilitate the learning and love of reading. He shared parenting with his wife and his experience of fatherhood and primary teaching led him to write poetry to amuse the children. By 1993 his poems were appearing in anthologies. This, combined with his experience as a special-needs teacher specialising in literacy, meant he was in demand as a writer of earlylearner reading schemes. Tony’s first poetry collection, Big Bad Raps, was published in 1996 and two years later Plum, appeared. Tony was immediately taken on by the leading literary agent Gina Pollinger and on her retirement by David Higham Associates. By 2000 he was writing full time. He replaced teaching with work as a visiting children’s author in schools, libraries, literary festivals, primary teachers’ conferences, and teacher training colleges. Flashing Fire Engines, a fact-based book in verse illustrated by Ant Parker started a series of Amazing Machine titles, the twentieth due in 2023. Jolly Olly Octopus started a series of ten verse picture books illustrated by Guy Parker Reece, e.g. Down by the Cool of the Pool and Farmer Joe and the Music Show. The next two decades saw the publication of over eighty-five titles and he continued to be widely anthologised. There were verse picture books with a variety of publishers and illustrators, examples are Goodnight Me Goodnight You, Once Upon a Tide, A Very Curious Bear and Sir Laughalot. Examples of verse picture books published to coincide with Christmas are Christmas Wishes (where the story is told from the point of view of the mice, using the same rhythmic verse form as the famous ‘’Twas the Night Before Christmas’ poem) and Snow Bear. For 2018 a verse retelling of Dickens’ A Christmas Carol was published and, poignantly in 2020 the year of Tony’s terminal diagnosis, Snow Ghost. There was a steady stream of solo poetry collections, among them Come into This Poem, Pip, My Hat and All That, Fluff and The Red and White Spotted Handkerchief which won the Smarties prize in 2000. Tony was a gifted musician with a strong interest in folk song, encouraged when he was an undergraduate by contact with Helena Shire. Tony and his wife were keen walkers and holidays were taken in the remoter parts of Scotland and Ireland, driven by their joint interest in folklore and legend. King Arthur and the Mighty Contest and Sir Gawain

and the Green Knight were part of a series, published in a format for older children, retelling the Arthurian legends in humorous ballad form. Tony’s gift for storytelling in verse is also reflected in books like The Story Teller’s Secrets, The Tale of Tales, The Seal Hunter and most powerfully in the prize-winning verse-narrative Wayland, based on a Norse legend and illustrated with woodcuts by John Lawrence which won the Centre for Literacy in Primary Poetry Award (CLIPPA Award) in 2013. Similarly, as an undergraduate, an awareness of the work of Joseph Needham sparked a lifelong interest in Zen Buddhism and, though not religious, Tony practiced meditation daily. This is reflected in his novel Potter’s Boy, set in a mythical Buddhist land, published in 2017. Tony’s works were translated into many languages. This took him on book tours to Europe and the USA. His audience ranged from pre-school children to teenagers, and he was diligent in answering the quantity of fan mail from children across the world. One of the last letters he received was from a child in Pakistan wanting to know what had inspired him to write about bugs. Several artists such as the Cambridge-based letter carver Eric Marland, the painter Renée Spierdijck and the installation artist Bettina Furnée have used Tony’s words in text-based work. Collaboration with the Hallé Orchestra resulted in a musical setting for the verse texts Alien Tea on Planet Zum-Zee first performed 2020 and for Bumpus Jumpus Dinosaurumpus being turned into concert piece to introduce the sounds of a symphony orchestra to children. This has had performances by the Hallé and the Welsh National Opera. A musical setting for All Afloat on Noah’s Boat with an animated film will premiere in 2023. Goddess Gaia, a piece commissioned by the Hallé orchestra, is a music-and-song cycle, for performance by children in schools, on the theme of the environment and climate change. Tony Mitton’s archive is held by the National Centre for Children’s Books in Newcastle. He is survived by his wife, their son and daughter and grandson.

NAIR, VALLILLATH MADHATHIL MADHAVAN (1941), 6 October 2021 It was with great sadness that we heard of the death of VM Madhavan Nair on 6 October 2021 in New Delhi, just two days before his 102nd birthday. Nair was born and raised in southern India into an eminent family that was closely linked to the British administration of the region. He attended Caius as an Affiliated Student between 1941 and 1942, and he graduated with a First in Law. He joined the elite pre-colonial Indian Civil Service in 1943, then the

Indian Political Service, married in 1945, completed the Bar in 1949 and subsequently joined the Indian Foreign Service at its inception. He was the youngest diplomat in the Indian Foreign Service to be appointed High Commissioner at the age of thirty-eight and served in Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Sudan, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Norway, Poland, Morocco and Tunisia, and Spain. During his life he saw momentous events which included being in wartime Britain, witnessing the Partition of India, the independence of Ceylon and Singapore, as well as being held hostage during an attempted coup in Morocco. Nair retired in 1977 and settled in New Delhi, making regular visits to London to spend time with his daughter and family. At the time of his death, he was the last surviving officer of both the Indian Civil Service, both in India and the United Kingdom, as well as of the Indian Political Service. He is survived by his family: his wife of nearly seventy-six years, Krishnakumari Nair, his son Dr Shankaran Nair and family, and his daughter Professor Parvati Nair and her family.

NORTON, STEPHEN (STEVE) (1966), 19 March 2022 His brother John (1968) writes: Steve Norton was born in Hull in January 1949 the second of the three sons of Stanley and Mary Norton. From an early age Steve manifested the traits that came to define him all his life: exceptional intelligence; a love of music, literature and nature; and a deeply empathetic personality. He passed the ‘old’ 11+ exam at the age of ten and progressed to the Marist College Grammar School in Hull where he found his metier in mathematics and science. At the age of sixteen he was accepted for a place at Caius and matriculated in 1966. For his degree Steve achieved a double first in Natural Sciences, specialising in Physics in his third year. Unlike his two brothers Steve was never a sportsman and, whilst sociable, not attracted to clubs. Perhaps an indication of his interests when not studying is the fact that he was a lifelong member of the Campaign for Real Ale. On graduation Steve embarked on research in High Energy Nuclear Physics at the Cavendish Laboratory and at the CERN fundamental physics research facility in Switzerland. Steve was part of a team using sub‑atomic particles to study the strong nuclear force and was awarded his PhD after four years of research.

OBITUARIES

In 1975, after a short period working with Philips in Cambridge, Steve started work at the first nuclear power station to be constructed in Suffolk (Sizewell A). Steve was much respected (and liked) as the Head of Performance, leading a multi-disciplinary technical team monitoring the nuclear safety performance of the reactors. One of Steve’s many achievements was the pivotal role he played in the justification of the extension to Sizewell A’s operational life. Sizewell A, like all Magnox reactors, was originally designed to generate for twenty years but ultimately operated for forty years. The life extension required satisfying the Nuclear Installations Inspectorate (now Office for Nuclear Regulation) that safe operation of the reactors was assured. In 2000 Steve focussed on optimising the fuel cycle for the remaining years of electricity generation and preparing the site for post-generation activities such as defueling and decommissioning before retiring in 2007. To those who knew him well Steve was a private person with a calm, even temperament. His leisure interests reflected this: he loved bird watching and walking; had a passion for music particularly the later romantics Wagner, Mahler and Strauss; he was widely read in the classics and contemporary works (his favourite book was Ulysses). Perhaps paradoxically for a retiring man Steve was well known for his anarchic sense of humour; favourite TV comedies were The Young Ones, Red Dwarf, Black Books and (unsurpassed in his view) Father Ted. He was a lifelong lover of Private Eye magazine and subscribed to it from his teens. Above all though Steve was a family man; first and centre in his life was his wife Rosie and his two daughters Catherine and Emma. Regrettably after a year-long illness Steve died in March 2022. After a funeral service in a village hall attended by family, friends and many former work colleagues Steve was laid to rest in the quiet churchyard of Brundish Church in the heart of rural Suffolk. It would be hard to envisage a more fitting resting place for such a much-loved husband, father and brother.

PRINCE, CHARLES HARVEY (HAMILTON) (1955), 27 August 2022 His children, Nicky and Guy Prince write: Charles Harvey (Hamilton) Prince died on 27 August 2022 aged 84 years, on the channel island of Jersey. He was born in London in 1937 to an Austrian mother and English father. In the autumn of 1940, he was evacuated to the United States along with around 13,000 other UK children. He spent the war years in Cleveland and then Washington with his

American ‘parents,’ a childless couple who took him into their home as not much more than a baby. After returning at the age of seven in 1945 to his parents, Harvey was educated at Westminster School, followed by a degree in economics at Caius. He then served two years military service in Germany as an officer with the Royal Signals attached to a Guards Brigade just outside Düsseldorf. It was here he met his wife Brigitte, who accepted his hand in marriage the year after he returned to England to join his father’s wine importing business, JLP Lebegue. Lebegue was sold in 1964 with Harvey remaining as MD until 1973, after which formed his own business Harvey Prince & Co. This concern was later acquired by Greenall Whitely, the Warrington brewers. Over this period the wine trade was going through massive change, from a small number of importing family businesses, through a period dominated by rapidly consolidating breweries to what we largely see today with a few powerful supermarkets dominating. Harvey spent nearly twenty years during these changes as the wine consultant for Marks and Spencer where he championed the back label on wine bottles, providing a description to assist the new wine customers M&S were trying to attract. Harvey also chaired the key committee overseeing French wine imports, for which in 1986 the French Government decorated him with the Chevalier de la Mérite Agricole. Harvey moved with Brigitte to the island of Jersey in 1987 and, continuing his association with the Greenall family, become commercial director of Randalls Vautier with responsibility for their newly acquired wine department. At the same time, he and Brigitte, using an old secret family recipe passed down from Harvey’s great aunt in India, produced Jersey Amber, an orange liqueur that also sold separately sold in Guernsey as Guernsey Amber. He retired in 2007. He was a lifelong keen golfer and enjoyed walking, travel, and time with a wide circle of long-time friends along with actively participating in Probus and La Moye Senior golfers. Brigitte died in June 2020 and Harvey will be sadly missed by his children Guy and Nicky and by his four grandchildren.

ROCK, MICHAEL (Mick) DAVID (1964), 18 November 2021 The following is based on information extracted from obituaries that appeared in The Guardian and The Times, and on information provided by Mick Rock’s widow, Pati: Mick Rock was the photographer famous for his images of David Bowie, Lou Reed, and Iggy Pop. He first met Bowie in 1972 and introductions to the others soon followed. His prolific early output captured the zeitgeist of the 1970s in the way that David Bailey had the Swinging Sixties. Like Bailey’s, Rock’s career endured: he continued to collaborate with Bowie and other iconic figures of the pop world for the rest of his life. He was born Michael David Rock in Hammersmith, west London, in November 1948. His mother, Joan, worked a part-time Saturday job and his father, David Rock, was a civil servant in the Ministry of Labour. Following schooling at Emanuel School in Battersea, southwest London, he was admitted to Caius in 1964 to study, in his words, ‘modern languages, psychedelics and young ladies.’ From the outset, Rock was drawn to the Romanticism of Coleridge and Shelley, and to the French symbolist poets Rimbaud and Baudelaire, ‘crazy characters who were out of their minds and then produced stuff that people praised as being high art.’ He saw these writers as the progenitors of the 1960s counterculture. Throwing himself enthusiastically into the hippy lifestyle, he proudly boasted that the first time his name ever appeared in print was in a local paper under the headline ‘Caius student arrested for marijuana.’ While at Cambridge, he met Syd Barrett, one of the founders of Pink Floyd and recalled days spent playing Chinese checkers, reading comics and getting high together. A little later one of Rock’s early professional commissions was to shoot Barrett and a naked woman in his flat for the cover of his 1970 solo album The Madcap Laughs. His first experiments in photography had come when he picked up a friend’s camera during an acid trip and ‘started to play around with it,’ taking pictures of a girlfriend who was ‘flying’ with him. He subsequently found that there had been no film in the camera: ‘So the next time I took acid I made my friend load the camera and actually did take a few pictures of this very pretty blonde lady I was hanging around with.’ His curiosity piqued, he bought a battered, second-hand Pentax and a local rock band paid him £5 to take pictures. On graduating, he returned to London and was initially

118

OBITUARIES

unsure whether he wanted to be a rock journalist or a photographer and so combined both. He wrote a couple of pieces for Rolling Stone and shot an album cover for the Irish blues guitarist Rory Gallagher, whose denim-and-work-shirt image could hardly have seemed less appropriate for the glam rock scene that he was about to chronicle. When Felix Dennis, one of the founders of Oz magazine, whose darkroom Rock was using, gave him a copy of Bowie’s Hunky Dory album, he was so overwhelmed by the song ‘Life on Mars’ that he determined to track down its singer and composer. The trail led to a grubby dressing room in Birmingham, to Bowie, and to Rock’s extraordinary career. Looking back, he was astonished at how effortless it had all seemed. He defined photography as ‘the business of bottling auras’ but insisted that he had done little more than to be in the right place at the right time to point and shoot: ‘Taking a photograph is really like tapping into the flow of energy in the moment. It is a Zen thing. It came very easily to me.’ In recent years he not only exhibited his 1970s images in galleries and museums around the world but was in demand again to shoot younger artists and bands such as the Killers and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. His final album cover shoot was for Miley Cyrus’s Plastic Hearts in 2020. Rock never forgot his time at Caius, ‘... because that’s where I learned all my mischief.’ In 2006 he recognised that by presenting the College with a magnificent, signed print of one of his iconic photographs of Bowie. At the time of his death, he was working on an autobiography, which appeared in 2022 under the title Shot! By Rock. The Photography of Mick Rock (London: Titan Books, 2022) Since the 1980s he had lived on Staten Island, New York with his second wife Pati, whom he credited with saving his life after prolonged cocaine addiction ended his first marriage and nearly killed him. She survives him, along with their daughter Natalie, a photographer, their dog Charlie and cat Bellini. The following reminiscence by Jeffrey Tobias (1965) appeared in The Guardian on 2 December 2021 In the mid-1960s Mick Rock, a rather unlikely Cambridge scholarship boy, was by far the most exotic undergraduate beast in Gonville and Caius College, already with a wild and reckless reputation. He lived just above me on O staircase in Tree Court, relying on the reliably draughty corridors to disperse those ever-present fumes of marijuana, and somehow satisfying his tutors term after term that essays were getting written, work was being done. Invariably ahead of the game, he always argued that weed – or at least the relatively innocuous variety then available – was far less dangerous in the long run than the alcohol and tobacco which most of us enjoyed in the pubs as a matter of course.

For me, as a head-in-the-books medical student, it was an altogether dizzying experience just being with Mick. I certainly learned to keep my few precious girlfriends well away. Despite his hectic life-in-the-fast-lane approach to the college routine, he somehow even managed to stay one step ahead of the proctors and bulldogs who were meant to ‘keep discipline’ among the students. It all seems rather quaint now, but I still cherish the superb b/w photos he took of us all with that famous battered old 40-quid Pentax.

SALES, ROGER B. (1971), 17 March 2022 His daughter Jessica Smith wrote in The Guardian on 19 May 2022: My father, Roger Sales, who has died after a short illness, aged 72, was a pioneer in the field of interdisciplinary studies that prospered in the new universities of the 1960s, not least at the University of East Anglia (UEA) in Norwich, where he took his BA degree, and later returned to teach for twenty-seven years. A scholar equally of English literature and of history, he delighted in bringing the two together in writing and teaching, and he became UEA’s first professor of English studies. Born in Chesterfield, one of three children of Katharine (nee Adams), a teacher, and William Sales, who worked for the National Coal Board, Roger attended Bradfield college, in Berkshire, following his uncle Richard Adams, author of Watership Down. At UEA he took a first in history, incorporating liberal elements, already, of literature and philosophy; it was a logical step from there to target as his PhD supervisor, at Cambridge, the great interdisciplinary scholar Raymond Williams. This alliance led to a very solid thesis on The Literature of Labour and the Condition of England Question 1730-1860. He joined Caius as a Research Student in 1971 and was awarded his PhD in 1976. After short-term teaching jobs, Roger applied successfully for a post that was the Holy Grail of many arts graduates at the time: that of research assistant at the BBC. In this role, he worked on the production of the 1979 series Shakespeare in Perspective, which would lead to his first publication, a book of that name, in 1982. But the academic life always drew him back. In 1978 he returned to UEA, the first person appointed to teach English studies, as distinct from English literature, or English history. He is remembered there as an inspirational teacher, enthusiastic, committed to clarity as well as to vision, always supportive of his students and of their own career ambitions. In due course Roger became dean of the School of English and American Studies. His own publications were on subjects that ranged from Christopher Marlowe through Jane Austen and John Clare to Tom Stoppard. After retirement in 2005 from UEA, Roger kept up his interest in Clare, and he was a regular presence at the annual John Clare festival. His major scholarly legacy remains, arguably, his definitive book John Clare: A Literary Life (2002).

OBITUARIES

Roger had a wicked sense of humour, was a mean tennis and squash player and a keen watcher of cricket and football: he followed Norwich City through good times and bad. Above all, he was a family man, devoted to his children and grandchildren. Roger is survived by his wife, Anne (nee Whitney), whom he married in 1975, by their two children, William and me, and by three grandchildren, Freddie, Indira and Leo.

SAMUELS, IVOR (1956), 12 March 2022 Ivor Samuels, born 11 May 1936, died on 12 March 2022, five years after a diagnosis with pancreatic cancer, an excellent survival rate he attributed to first-class medical attention, overseen by fellow Caius alumnus John Kirkham (1954). Ivor attended Caius from 1956-9, after spending part of his national service in Cambridge on the Joint Services Russian course. He read history under the supervision of Philip Grierson, a valued mentor, and advocate of lifelong academic curiosity and openness to learning. To hear Ivor speak in his later years, one might believe he spent his entire Cambridge career on the river. As a new student he was speedily identified as cox material (small, light, and with a strong voice) and became dedicated to the discipline of regular practice as well as passionate about the sport. He remained friends with some of his old crew to the end of his life. Ivor worked in advertising all his professional life, first with BBDO, a large international company, and then set up his own agency with his partners; he was a leader in the field of ‘off the page’ marketing, known now as Direct Marketing. He put this professional expertise to good use raising money for the College and, in 1998, proudly became a founder member of The Court of Benefactors. Always a keen learner Ivor felt there was a danger in being a recognised success: ‘you can easily start to believe your own reputation when every word you say in is taken for authoritative’. He enrolled in the Open University, taking four courses in English Literature between 1979 and 1982. In 1962 he met Gerry Wakelin who became his life partner, registered officially as a civil partner in January 2006, and he hoped to achieve a sixtieth anniversary but, alas, missed it by a few months. Together, they were enthusiasts for music, opera, art, theatre, reading, walking and entertaining, and ‘spare uncles’ and godparents to quite a few of the younger generation. Numerous tributes on Ivor’s death refer to a man remarkable for his enthusiasm in all aspects of his life, an outspoken and sometimes provocative defender of his principles. He supported many charities, particularly in music, and always responded to individual appeals for help with advice, introductions and financial gifts, expecting no public acknowledgement of his generosity. His particular joy was to see aspiration and enterprise, particularly in setting up businesses, and then to encourage talent to fulfil its potential.

SMITH, COLIN FERGUSON (1952), 17 December 2021 Colin Ferguson Smith died in Birmingham on 17 December 2021, aged 89. Born in Birmingham on 12 October 1932, he spent most of his early years in India, where his father worked for the Bombay Company in Calcutta. On his return to England, he attended The Downs School, Colwall, and then Leighton Park School, Reading, before entering Gonville & Caius where he read Law (B.A. 1955; LL.B. 1956). Colin lived in Tree Court from 1952 to 1953 and then had rooms in Green Street until 1955, where, according to one of his contemporaries, he was very good at handling the notoriously difficult landlady. He was a member of the Boat Club and GCSU/JCR Committee, and President of the Law Society in 1953-1954. Having qualified as a Company Secretary, Colin first worked at Tangyes, the Birmingham engineering company founded by his Cornish ancestors. In 1969 he moved into stockbroking, at which he was very successful, and he was a partner in a prominent Birmingham firm until his retirement. Among Colin’s chief interests were music and history. He loved going to concerts and opera performances, and he had a particular passion for Handel. He had a wide knowledge of British and European history and was very proud of the achievements of his ancestors, including the Tangyes, Macaulays, and Smiths. Two years before his death, he completed and published a life of General Colin Macaulay. Colin will be much missed by his family and many friends, who will remember his lively company and entertaining conversation, his sense of humour, his keen interest in others, and his kindness and generosity.

STOTT, JOHN RICHARD ROLLIN (1957), 2 January 2021 The following piece draws on information posted online by the Aerospace Medical Association. John Stott was a highly respected accident investigator for the UK and identified lapses in SA (Situation Awareness) and SD (Spatial Distorientation) that resulted in military and general aviation mishaps. His contributions saved lives. He was renowned in the field of human perception mishaps in aviation. He helped develop ground-based and in-flight SD training for pilots and played a role in drafting the landmark NATO Technical Report ‘Spatial Disorientation Training: Demonstration and Avoidance.’ He was the author of

122

OBITUARIES

two chapters in the standard reference in aerospace medicine, Ernsting’s Aviation and Space Medicine. Early in his career, while working with Alan Benson at the Institute of Aviation Medicine, he helped revise the now universally accepted theory of spatial disorientation in aviation. More recently he improved the human perception model of spatial orientation, noted in U.S. Army Aeromedical Lab report ‘Understanding of a Key Aspect of Situation Awareness.’ Working with Col. (Ret.) Dr Geoffrey McCarthy (USAF) in the Hunter aircraft, he proved the Inversion Illusion and wrote a computer program to illustrate the actual sensations on the vestibular organs. He later developed a syllabus of in-flight illusions for demonstration to pilots. More recently, Stott collected numerous pilots’ experiences of spatial disorientation, from which he concluded that teaching the various manifestations of Spatial disorientation as discrete, named illusions was not helpful to pilots, who experienced them as confusing situations. He was one of the first invited contributors to the new, online journal, Extreme Physiology and Medicine. Stott was called upon to investigate numerous military and general aviation mishaps. Two notable Boards he served on included the Morecambe Bay helicopter crash in 2006 and the Gulf Air crash of 2000. Stott was admitted to Caius in1957 to read Natural Sciences and graduated after taking his Part II in Pathology in 1960. He took his MB, BChir. in 1963 and became MRCP in 1969. He subsequently studied engineering applied to medicine at Imperial College, London in 1979. After a variety of hospital appointments, Stott joined the RAF Institute of Aviation Medicine, Farnborough, working on the effects of motion on man; in particular, spatial disorientation in flight, airsickness in trainee aircrew, and the effects of whole-body vibration. He also worked as a trusted expert for QinetiQ plc and was an Honorary Senior Lecturer at King’s College London. He was awarded his Diploma in Aviation Medicine in 1986. He became a CAA Aeromedical Examiner in 1990 and joined the Aerospace Medical Association (AsMA in 1991). John Stott died January 2021 at the age of 82. He was honoured posthumously in 2021 with the Kent K. Gillingham Award for his significant contributions to ground-based pilot spatial disorientation (SD) training for the UK and NATO. He was recognized as an international expert on situation awareness (SA) and SD issues at the highest levels for over thirty years.

Dr Orfeas Chasapis Tassinis Orfeas is a graduate of Gonville and Caius College and now joined as a Research Fellow. He is an international lawyer whose research focuses on the legal theory of international law – currently looking at customary law and its interpretation. He completed his PhD in 2020 as an AHRC and WM Tapp Scholar and thereafter joined the European University Institute as a Max Weber Fellow. Apart from legal puzzles, Orfeas loves spending time at the sea; swimming and sailing above all. Mr Stephen Turton Stephen studies the history of English dictionaries from 1600 to the present, with a particular interest in their representation of marginalized linguistic varieties and social groups. He completed a BA in Linguistics and English Literature and an MA in Linguistics at the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa, then moved to Oxford to pursue an MSt in English Language (St Cross College) and a DPhil in English (Merton). At present, most of his time is split between writing a book on the lexicography of sexuality for CUP and co-running a project to edit and digitize the letters of Sir James A. H. Murray, the first chief-editor of the Oxford English Dictionary. Stephen is a Research Fellow in English. Dr Michele Simoncelli Michele works between theoretical condensed matter physics and computational materials science. He received his BSc in Physics at University of Trento (Italy), then he attended the “International Master in Physics of Complex Systems”, jointly operated by Universities ParisSaclay, Sorbonne Université and Université de Paris, together with Politecnico di Torino, SISSA and ICTP in Trieste. He earned his PhD in Materials Science at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland). His research focuses mainly on the quantummechanical description of transport phenomena such as heat or electrical conduction in solids and liquids. He is also interested in

132

THE COLLEGE ANNUAL RECORD 2021–22

translational research, specifically in understanding how to exploit transport phenomena in technological applications, including e.g. thermoelectric energy production, electronics, and water desalination. Beyond physics and technology, Michele enjoys reading and sports such as running, cross-country skiing, mountaineering, and rowing. He joined as a Research Fellow. Mr Jan Steinebrunner Jan is a mathematician working on the algebraic topology of manifolds. He completed a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Mathematics at the University of Freiburg, Germany, before moving to Oxford where he studied for a Master’s in Mathematical and Theoretical Physics and continued to do a DPhil in Mathematics. In his research he studies moduli spaces of manifolds, which encode the symmetries and deformations of geometric objects of varying dimension. He uses category theory to connect these moduli spaces to algebraic K-theory, tropical geometry and various other areas in pure Mathematics, as well as the mathematical study of topological quantum field theories. He joined Caius as a Research Fellow. Dr Geoffrey Maguire Geoff is a graduate of the University of St Andrews, the University of Paris-Sorbonne and St Edmund’s College, Cambridge. He is a Latin Americanist, with interests in contemporary film, literature and visual art.

He earned a BA in Political and Administrative Science from the University of Konstanz, an MA in Political Science from the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, and an MPhil and a DPhil in International Relations from Nuffield College, Oxford University. Before coming to Cambridge, he was an Assistant Professor of International Relations at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile in Santiago. Carsten joined Caius as a College Lecturer in Human, Social and Political Sciences. Dr Michael Joseph Mike is a historian of the Caribbean, Britain, and France. He comes to Cambridge as an Assistant Professor of Black British History after ten years at Oxford. He read History at Pembroke, moved to Lincoln for an MSc in the History of Science, Medicine and Technology, and returned to Pembroke for a DPhil in History. He then spent three years as a Junior Research Fellow at Corpus Christi. His current book project is a comparative study of anti-colonial political thought in five Caribbean islands – Trinidad, Jamaica, Barbados, Martinique, and Guadeloupe – between 1884 and 1939. While, as this project might suggest, his work to date has been largely focused on the Caribbean itself, he also has ongoing research interests in the history of the Caribbean diaspora in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and in Black British and Black European Studies more broadly. Mike joined Caius as a College Lecturer. Ms Thea Don-Siemion Thea is an economic historian whose work focuses on expanding the geographical frontier of research into the financial history of the Great Depression into Central and Eastern Europe, particularly Poland. She earned a BA in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics from the University of Oxford, then pursued a MSc (Research) and PhD in Economic History at the London School of Economics.

severe economic harm this decision engendered, and argued that extra-economic motives, particularly the need to show commitment to the military alliance with France, were the key drivers of this costly decision. She is passionate about doing research that combines detailed quantitative analysis with an ethos that draws unapologetically on the best traditions of the humanities. Beyond her academic pursuits, she takes delight in building fictional worlds and exploring our own by foot or by bicycle. She joins Caius as a College Lecturer and Director of Studies (Papers I and IIB) in Economics. Dr Jason Hawkes (Bye-Fellow) Jason is an archaeologist and art historian. He graduated from Durham with joint honours in archaeology and anthropology before studying South Asian studies at SOAS where he was awarded the highest Distinction in his year. After two years working for the voluntary sector in London and the Aga Khan network in Pakistan, he moved to Cambridge in 2002 to study for his PhD in archaeology. Since then, he has spent six years managing the Finds Laboratory of Cambridge University’s Archaeological Unit, before moving to Denmark to take up a research fellowship at Aarhus University. In 2014 he joined the British Museum as a curator and was a temporary lecturer at Cambridge from 2017 to 2019. Jason’s research focuses on religion and society during ancient and medieval periods, specialising in South and Southeast Asia, and the ways the past is used by modern political agendas. He is an elected Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London and the Royal Asiatic Society. Jason joined Caius as the Cook-Crone Research Bye-Fellow. Dr Amoghavarsha Mahadevegowda (Bye-Fellow) Amogh’s research concerns the study of nanomaterials for energy applications with an overarching objective to tackle climate change. He obtained his Bachelor of Technology from the National Institute of Technology Karnataka in India and then Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Oxford. He is currently working on the application of advanced transmission electron microscopy techniques to study energy materials and devices such as batteries. Amoghavarsha joined Caius as a College Lecturer. Ashwiny Kistnareddy continued as French Lectrice Daniela Dora continued as German Lektorin.

Regular readers might at this point expect to see a list of those who achieved Firsts in the Tripos in June 2022. We cannot now include this because of a change in University policy: with the support of the student body generally, it was resolved no longer to publish class lists either outside the Senate House or in The Reporter. Consequently, the Colleges are obliged to treat exam results as confidential personal information. We are, however, able to publish lists of those who won prizes and were elected to scholarships and exhibitions.
