Donor Report 2020-21

Principal’s

Welcome

BARONESS ROYALL of BLAISDON

Somerville has received some intriguing gifts over the years, from curtain poles to works of art. And yet the one I find myself thinking of this morning is the bequest made in 1971 by the anthropologist Barbara Aitken.

According to her wishes, Barbara’s gift was used to establish the Marya Antonina Czaplicka Fund. The fund was created in memory of Barbara’s friend and fellow Somervillian, the intrepid anthropologist Marya Czaplicka, who had died fifty years previously, in order to support any anthropologist or student of the Ancient World wishing to study overseas.

In that gift, we see the same impulse which drives so much of the giving at Somerville. It is the story of someone remembering our College as a place where learning, friendship and community came together to enable a lifealtering change to occur, and seeking to pass that experience on to others. A gift received in the past is made to the future.

We are tremendously fortunate that our College continues to inspire such loyalty and trust among our donors and alumni. Indeed, as Covid-19 continues to wreak its toll on the university sector and our students continue to feel its aftershocks, the steadfast support of our community has been more transformative than ever.

For that reason, I would like to start by expressing my thanks to our entire giving community for the speed and generosity with which you have rallied around our continued efforts to mitigate the effects of Covid-19. It’s impossible to say thank you here for every gift we received – but please know your support is essential to us, and never forgotten.

I would also like to say a word about our Development Board and alumni groups. The record levels of support we received this year simply would not have been possible

without the campaigns and initiatives that you helped mastermind and deliver. From Wigmore Hall to the Somerville Auction, you have proven yourself Somerville’s greatest champions, and we are so fortunate to have you.

Covid-19 may have changed our lives, but Somerville’s focus on maintaining academic standards remains undiminished. That is why I am so grateful to Sue Scollan (née Green, 1978, Chemistry) and her husband Kevin for fully endowing our Chemistry Fellowship, as well as to Dr Ailsa Goulding for the generous donation made in memory of her sister Dr Elizabeth Goulding (Modern Languages, 1960) to support French studies at Somerville.

Securing the future of teaching and scholarship at Somerville must remain a focus of our fundraising going forward. In particular, we face a challenge in ensuring that our humanities and social sciences fellowships achieve full endowment, as the science fellowships have.

There are already exciting developments in this regard, with a new Somerville Campaign to meet these and other challenges in its final planning stage. Bringing together the disparate strands of academic excellence, sustainability and inclusivity in one place, this campaign will acknowledge both Somerville’s past and future, and I hope you will join us on that journey when it begins.

Scholarship at Somerville often dovetails with a commitment to the issues about which our community feels most strongly. Thus climate change was firmly on the

agenda when our OICSD scholars welcomed Prince Charles to college in May 2021 and later that summer at the inaugural OpenAg Symposium hosted in partnership with the OICSD’s new partner, Indian agribusiness UPL. At the latter, OICSD scholars met with policymakers, academics, tech investors and NGO innovators to consider how we reshape the role of food systems in the face of global heating – more of which on p14.

Meanwhile, our MTST scholars continue to work at the cutting edge of research and humanitarianism – Martin Fellermeyer is one such scholar, and he tells us about his research into cancerfighting drugs on p12.

Alongside academic excellence, we remain determined to maintain our focus on widening participation. I am pleased to note that, in the latest intake of students, 79% of our UK undergraduates were state school educated. Though we welcome and cherish all our students wherever they were educated, this shift towards a balance that more closely reflects society is an important marker of progress. It also vindicates the work of our Access and Outreach team, who were delighted to resume in-person visits in September 2021.

There is one further cause for support which has captured our community’s imagination this year. Created in 2021

to support our newly acquired status as a College of Sanctuary, the Somerville Sanctuary Scholarships offer a pathway to Oxford for bright students displaced or endangered by conflict, persecution or the violation of their human rights.

Thanks to the generosity of Virginia Ross (1966, International Studies), Shahnaz Batmanghelidj (PPE, 1975) and several other alumni and friends, we have already brought two fully-funded Sanctuary Scholars to Somerville, the newly graduated Marwa Biala (profiled in last year’s Donor Report) and Asif, whose extraordinary journey to Oxford you can read about on p10. More incredibly still, we have

just learned that we have support for two further scholarships, with further enquiries coming all the time.

Why does sanctuary resonate so much for Somerville? Perhaps because it speaks to our earliest promise of combining excellence with inclusivity. Certainly it is a source of inspiration that, when the world beyond Somerville looks so desperate, our community remains committed to improving the prospects of bright students both inside and outside these beloved walls.

Thank you for remaining so steadfast this year, and for supporting Somerville.

A gift received in the past is made to the future.

In a challenging year for the whole Somerville community, we were encouraged and uplifted by your continuing warmth, loyalty and generosity.

In 2020-21, an incredible 1,319 of you chose to support your College by making a gift. This represents the largest number of alumni donors to Somerville in a single year that has ever been recorded. We cannot thank you enough for the trust you place in us to use your funds for the greatest need and for the greatest impact. Somerville can honour its tradition of making an impact on the world though groundbreaking research and supporting the development of young people who are committed to making a positive difference – thanks to you.

We do not take your trust lightly. Our use of funds is guided by a commitment to integrity, transparency and effectiveness. As the pandemic continued to wreak havoc on our teaching, research and the student experience, your support enabled us to help those most affected. Our Treasurer, Andrew Parker, was able to commit

a level of discretionary financial support to our students (through waiving accommodation costs over the lockdowns and making hardship awards available as and when needed) at a level that has never been witnessed before in College history. This was only possible because of the resilience of our endowment, which, over recent years, has been transformed by the magnificent philanthropy of our alumni community. From legacies to regular direct debits to one-off gifts via our crowdfunding projects: no support is ever too small to make a difference.

Last year, I wrote to you about our Covid Hardship Fund, which was

established by alumni donations to our digital platform totalling almost £150,000 to support students in need. The ripple effects of those funds continue to be felt as they are used to benefit the community, with grants available to every Somerville student to enhance the technology they use to learn, buy the books they need, and access any additional teaching required to reach their potential.

Innovation, creativity and - dare I say - fun defined our activities this past year. One of our most creative fundraising moments was surely the wonderful evening of opera at Wigmore Hall organised by Sophie

Wigmore Hall

Forsyth in September 2020. The sublime cadences of that evening were heightened by knowing we were raising the necessary funds to give our lockdown-deprived 2020 Leavers a fitting graduation experience. We also held our first auction for two decades which, thanks to Covid, had to be a digital experience. Going online brought many coincident benefits, such as allowing Somervillians across the world to participate. The auction culminated in a star-studded live broadcast event, and we are grateful to Natasha Kaplinsky, Susie Dent, Xand Van Tulleken, and the many others who helped to make the evening so entertaining. Our final tally of funds raised was over £100,000, with a further £100,000 in the sale of art via professional galleries.

This broadcast was made possible by the AV equipment Somerville has acquired through our Digital Fund. Thanks again to alumni support, we now have the capacity to create videos which can be broadcast to our community wherever they may be in the world. While we would always much rather welcome you back to in-person events held either in College

or beyond, the impact being made by these new technologies is clearly evident in the sheer numbers of you who have joined us online. A silver lining, indeed.

Our Alumni Carol Concert was one such occasion. The UK’s winter lockdowns ruled out an in-person event so we created a recording of our wonderful Choir, led by their equally wonderful Director Will Dawes. Their

performance was paired with readings from three incredible guests: the actor Simon Russell Beale, the theatre producer Matthew Maltby and the writer, Ella Road. The resulting Carol Concert broadcast has been viewed almost 2,000 times, with alumni from Australia to Germany to India able to share in the celebrations. We also welcomed over 500 of you to our online Supporters’ Celebration in February. There our Fellow in Experimental

Psychology, Professor Charles Spence took us on a journey through the world of gastrophysics, showing how sensory innovations from the high end of haute cuisine can nudge us towards a more sustainable food future.

Amongst the greatest strengths of this community is its commitment to social justice and inclusion. The work Somerville does to support refugee students and academics perfectly encapsulates this. Many of

you gave in support of our Sanctuary Scholarships this year and we see ever-growing interest in this work. Your generosity means that last year’s Scholar, a tenacious Libyan medic called Marwa Biala, has completed her Master’s in Radiation Biology. We have also welcomed our new scholar, Asif. Five years after a long, dangerous journey to the UK from Afghanistan as an unaccompanied minor with no previous schooling, he now starts his undergraduate degree in History and

AYLA BUSCH, CO-CHAIR, SOMERVILLE DEVELOPMENT BOARD

“The pandemic brought great challenges to us all in 2020: moments of anxiety and uncertainty, separation from our loved ones, and fewer personal interactions. During these hard times, Somerville and their team managed to stay close to us, they cared. Even more, they were able to bring the global Somerville community together through an abundance of wonderful online events: lectures, discussions, celebrations and even the auction were shared online by Somervillians of all ages, from all around the world, including our friends and families. In these moments of joy, I realized that there is a glue between us all, there is something that makes us distinctly Somervillians.

My warm thanks to Team Somerville for all their hard work in these testing times. On behalf of the Development Board, I would also like to convey immense thanks to each and every one of you who has supported the College this year.”

Economics. You can read more about Asif’s story on page 10.

None of our work would be possible without the unwavering support of our volunteers and ambassadors. The Development Board, chaired by Ayla Busch and Sybella Stanley, which could only meet virtually this year, brought incredible ideas and energy to our appeals and helped us to raise £2.8 million this year. We owe them all our gratitude. In addition, our Development and Alumni Relations team at college has never been more entrepreneurial in coming up with ways of keeping in touch. I am constantly in awe of their commitment and dedication to the Somerville Community, and feel very grateful to be in the company of colleagues who believe so much in Somerville’s spirit and purpose.

Looking ahead there will be a new Somerville Campaign to meet our future challenges focusing on excellence, sustainability, and inclusivity. We will meet those challenges together. For now though, a million “Thank Yous” for your belief and support.

Treasurer’s Report

BY ANDREW PARKER

Much as I envisaged in last year’s Donor Report, Covid-19 has this year continued to dominate our collegiate life.

In 2019-20, we suffered losses of £2m as the pandemic had a dramatic impact on rental income from our retail properties, rental income from students (we waived student rents for Trinity Term 2020 when our students were not in residence) and conference income. Much of this held true in 2020-21, although the impact on student rental income was not quite so significant. The underlying loss was c. £1.5m, which was partially ameliorated by drawing down additional funds from our endowment.

The steady growth in our endowment (which is now mid-table among Oxford colleges) and our unrestricted reserves, which we had been carefully nurturing, gave us the financial heft to absorb these losses without recourse to making any staff redundant, helped by the government furlough scheme. We had inevitably to cut our cloth during the year, as you would expect, but managed to do so without compromising our core activities.

Our endowment has recovered better than we might have hoped after the losses experienced last year. The valuation on 31st July 2021 saw an investment gain of £16m, pushing our endowment to £95m (though it might be prudent to anticipate something of a correction in the year ahead). During the year, we successfully divested from

all our fossil fuel extraction-related investments without crystallising any capital loss. The proceeds raised have been invested sustainably in line with our wider policy.

Equally positively, we have just finished our £4m refurbishment of the kitchen and pantry. The facilities were unsuitable to cater to the number of diners now served at Somerville, and they had reached the end of their life and needed replacement without delay. We now have a state-ofthe-art kitchen with which our catering team is delighted, and the fruits of whose labour we are all greatly enjoying.

Another significant expenditure this year was the purchase of the long-term lease on 25-27 Little Clarendon Street (the building immediately west of the Vaughan arcade). The addition of these three ground-floor shops and a spacious flat above each means we now own all the buildings in the corner of Walton Street and Little Clarendon Street, as well as the freehold. We also completed the refurbishment of Bedford House, which is now a teaching/function/AV room. Honouring a commitment we made as part of the planning permission process for the Catherine Hughes building, we will be making the space available for local community use during September each year.

Looking forward, next summer we are planning to put a sound-absorbing material onto the dining hall ceiling in an attempt to soften the oppressive acoustics we experience in there during busy meal sittings and formal dinners. This will not completely solve the problem, but we anticipate a marked improvement.

“I never imagined I’d get into Oxford”

ASIF, SANCTUARY SCHOLAR

Asif had never attended school before he fled the Taliban aged only 14. Five years later, he is studying History and Economics as Somerville’s newest Sanctuary Scholar. Asif shares his exceptional story, and how he realised that education is the most important thing of all.

You might think that leaving my home as an unaccompanied child refugee, or spending nights in a cold Bulgarian prison, or living in Calais’ ‘Jungle’ camp would be the parts of my life that have shaped me the most - but it’s my desire to learn that really drives me.

I grew up in a village in the south-eastern Nangarhar region of Afghanistan with very little access to education except in reading Quranic Arabic. Children in the village often worked, especially at harvest time, but otherwise there wasn’t much for us to do. It wasn’t enough for me; I knew that I wanted to learn more, to read, to write.

I had no idea how my wish would be granted.

In May 2016, my life changed forever. The Taliban were returning to the area after years in exile in Pakistan, and they were conscripting men and boys as fighters. At the age of 14, I was unlikely to be spared. My family was faced with an unthinkable choice: hand me over to violent fundamentalists, or entrust me to people smugglers and send me to seek sanctuary abroad? So I left, alone, and with no idea of where I was going. It was the last time I saw and spoke to my parents.

Reaching the UK took five long, terrible months. People traffickers have no mercy in them at all. You had to do what they said without question, and we were told as little as possible at every stage. It was no better without them; some countries would imprison us, only to release us on the border and send us off to repeat the process in the next destination. The worst were the prisons in Bulgaria and Serbia, where we were given only one small meal per day.

In August I reached Calais, where I lived in the infamous ‘jungle’ camp in its final months before demolition by the French government. Sometimes I slept in a shipping container bunkbed, sometimes in a tent. The camp housed thousands of people, and conditions were crowded and filthy. After two months, I was smuggled to the UK hidden in a lorry. Once again, I didn’t really know where I was being taken or if I was safe.

After a night in a children’s detention centre, I was placed in a care home for two weeks before being fostered in Thurrock, just to the east of London. It was surreal that my journey was at an end. I was finally safe, but Thurrock was not at all like home. In my village, I knew every family (of which there were around 300), but now I barely knew who the neighbours were. I miss that sense of support and community.

Nevertheless, I was so fortunate to be there. I quickly realised that I had also been extremely lucky with my foster placement. Right from the start, my foster mum really cared about me and my future. She fought for me to start school a year behind to give me a chance to catch up with my English, and it’s unlikely I would be here at Somerville without that. The support she gave me was just phenomenal, and we are still close now.

I never imagined I’d get into Oxford - I wasn’t sure if I would apply to University at all. After all, I am a refugee who started school aged 14 and went through the care system. And how would I ever afford to study? My asylum application was denied (I was granted five years of Leave to Remain while appealing), so I was unlikely to qualify for student finance or home fee status. And which college would I fit in and be included at, given my background?

The two questions had the same answer. One of my heroes, Lord Alf Dubs, was speaking at an online event I watched, hosted by Somerville’s Principal Jan Royall. I was intrigued, and the more I read about the college, their support for refugees and their commitment to including the excluded, the more I knew I’d found the right place. I can’t describe the feeling when I got the news about the Sanctuary Scholarship. I simply

would not be able to be here without it, and I cannot thank Somerville and the University enough.

It always come back to education. Education breaks the cycle of poverty and violence.

My experience at Oxford so far has been wonderful. I’m studying History and Economics here because I want to be able to create positive change. I’m passionately interested in development economics, learning how countries grow and how the world is moving. I’m finding that the more I learn, the more I want to learn! I want to work for a non-profit once I’ve finished my education, hopefully back in Afghanistan. I know that my parents, wherever they are, are proud of everything I’ve achieved.

It always come back to education. Education breaks the cycle of poverty and violence, and it transforms economies and societies. There is so much you can do, if you have access to the opportunity to learn. I am really looking forward to these next few years… these next few decades come to think of it!

Developing New Weapons In the Fight Against Cancer

Martin Fellermeyer is a third year doctoral student and Oxford Thatcher Scholar based at the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine. We visited him there to learn more about his work developing life-saving cancer therapies, and how the support of the Margaret Thatcher Scholarship Trust has galvanised his work both in and outside the laboratory.

Unlike a virus or bacterial infection, cancer is an intrinsic pathology: it arises due to problems with our own cells. Considering that the human body consists of around 37 trillion cells, any of which can develop into a tumour cell, it didn’t take long for me to become fascinated as an undergraduate by the mechanisms of how our body stops the ‘natural’ build-up of cancer cells. Most importantly, I came to believe that understanding these processes could translate into more effective drugs to treat patients in the clinic – this was the starting point for all my research.

Generally, a cancerous cell is one of our own cells that developed mutations in its genetic material (the DNA), which lead to changes and perturbations of the cell’s behaviour, most importantly an increase in cell divisions that allows the tumour to grow. Luckily, there are

different ‘self-defence’ systems in our body that aim to prevent exactly this from happening.

further damage to the body. That is why developing cancer cells seek not only to increase growth rate through DNA mutations, but also to manipulate DNA damage detection machinery and prevent cell suicide.

Secondly, if a cell’s intrinsic protection mechanisms fail, there are also extrinsic mechanisms in place to reduce the chance of tumour development. Most importantly, immune cells travel through our body looking for ‘different’ cells, including cancerous ones. A developing tumour will always seek ways to evade these protection mechanisms.

Firstly, our cells are constantly scanning themselves for injuries, such as missing or broken DNA, and seeking to repair themselves. If a cell is unable to repair itself, it will voluntarily die in order to prevent

Conventional chemotherapy is not designed to support these protection mechanisms with much accuracy: it simply kills all quickly growing cells, leading to the familiar side effects of

hair loss and gastrointestinal problems, as gut and hair cells are also targeted due to their fast cell growth. That is why there has been a lot of interest in finding drugs that target the different protection mechanisms of our own body in an effort to ‘re-activate’ them.

I hope my research will play a part in this important work. Specifically, my D.Phil. aims to develop novel drugs that will bind and block to what are known as the ‘stop signals’ used by cancerous cells to prevent immune cells from attacking them.

Our immune system works by maintaining a delicate balance of rapidly and effectively eliminating threats (e.g. viruses, bacteria, cancerous cells) and keeping our body intact by not interfering with normal processes (e.g. microbiota in the gut and on the skin). The problem with cancer is that a developing tumour utilises immunestopping factors to disrupt this process, either by sending immune cells away or dramatically reducing their killing functions. In particular, some tumour cells use a ‘stop signal’ on their surface to prevent the patrolling immune cells from identifying them as a threat and killing them.

Consequently, there has been a huge effort from the scientific community to

find drugs that block the different ‘stop signals’ so immune cells can function as usual and eradicate the cancer. The first drug based on this idea was approved in 2011 (ipilimumab), leading to the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the two scientists who facilitated this discovery.

My research looks to build on this work by developing novel drugs that will bind and block to ‘stop signals’, thereby unleashing the power of our immune cells. As mentioned, there is a great variety of immune cells in our body, all with very specific functions. In my first project, I am testing new drug combinations that focus on the ‘re-activation’ of different immune cells, aiming to create an improved therapy as compared to only activating one type of immune cell. In the second part of my project, I am re-engineering

existing drugs that are used in the clinic to make them more effective in their blockade of the ‘stop signal’.

I am deeply grateful to the Margaret Thatcher Scholarship for enabling me to come to this inspiring city and carry out the research for my D.Phil. The financial support allows me to follow my passions, both through my research and outside the lab.

Giving something back has always been important to me – and not merely through my work. In the first months of my D.Phil., I trained as a peer supporter, offering mental health support to students in Somerville and the Medical Sciences Division. Shortly after, I became vice president of a new University-wide peer support initiative and, in winter 2020, I trained as an LFD Test instructor to help my fellow Somervillians get home for Christmas. Finally, I was this year elected president of the Graduate Student Association at my institute, following a term as welfare officer. There I hope to be able to have a positive influence on the academic and social environment for my peers.

It’s a privilege to do this work here in Oxford, and I hope it makes a difference.

An Appetite for Change

The Inaugural OpenAg Symposium 2021

In 2020, leading agri-solutions company UPL and Somerville College, announced the launch of a new UPL Sustainability Fund at The Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development (OICSD), providing support for new research into climate change, food and water security, clean energy, healthcare innovation, sustainable cities and environmental sustainability.

As part of UPL’s support of the OICSD, UPL and Somerville College launched the OpenAg Symposium, a new annual event to discuss a range of sustainability, innovation, technology and investment topics in agriculture. On 3rd September 2021 – ahead of the UN Food Systems Summit and COP26 – the inaugural ‘Food Future

in a Changing Climate’ OpenAg Symposium took place at the University of Oxford.

The event brought together leading academics, policymakers, technology investors, industry pioneers, and NGO innovators from across the globe to address the social and environmental

trade-offs and challenges posed by climate change in the area of agriculture. It outlined a series of policy positions, technological interventions, and collaboration opportunities that can contribute to global efforts to reshape the role of food systems in the face of climate change.

The OpenAg Symposium is also notable for pioneering the first use of a hybrid event at Somerville, featuring remote speakers from around the world alongside in-person attendees. The Symposium opened with an introduction by Jan Royall, Baroness Royall of Blaisdon and Somerville’s Principal, and by Her Excellency the High Commissioner of India to the United Kingdom, Gaitri Issar Kumar. The keynote was given by Sir Charles Godfray, Director of the Oxford Martin School and former Chair of the Science Advisory Council to the UK.

The conference brought together four panels, covering the topics of: ‘The Role of Agriculture in Combatting Climate Change’; ‘Priorities for Policymakers in Land Use and Biodiversity’; ‘Technologies to Transform the Agrifood Chain’; and ‘The Future of India’s Agricultural Sector.’ Among the speakers were Dr Agnes Kalibata, UN SecretaryGeneral’s Special Envoy to the 2021 Food Systems Summit and Somerville’s own Prof Radhika Khosla, Research Director of the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development.

Concluding the OpenAg Symposium, Baroness Royall, said: “The inaugural OpenAg Symposium has been a resounding success. What we have heard and seen today gave us a glimpse of the vital role that food systems must play in the fight against climate change. As an institution, Oxford has an extraordinary power to convene and shape the coalitions that lead to the transformation of some of humanity’s most urgent needs. We are excited to see where the OpenAg Symposium, and the discussions it has inspired, go from here.”

Jai Shroff, Global CEO of UPL Ltd., added: “Agriculture is one of the only systems on the planet that has the ability to reshape and reverse the effects of climate change. At UPL, we take a wholly optimistic view of the opportunity that exists for farms and farmers to nourish the planet, while feeding the population. This transformation will not be easy, but the discussions we have heard at this inaugural OpenAg Symposium show that the will and the means exist to meet this challenge if we continue to work together.”

Oxford has an extraordinary power to convene and shape the coalitions that lead to the transformation of some of humanity’s most urgent needs.”

Lots of Joy THE SOMERVILLE AUCTION

Things looked tough in Michaelmas 2020. A new lockdown was looming and finances were flagging. We needed a boost – something that would raise vital funds for College while at the same time bringing much-needed joy to our community. Development Board Member Judith Buttigieg (Physics, 1989) had a brainwave: what about hosting our very own auction?

“My masterclass with Fiona Stafford will be etched in memory for its sheer brilliance, spontaneity, and deep, meaningful insights into Milton’s poetry.”

GOPAL SUBRAMANIUM, FOUNDATION FELLOW

What followed next were nights of madcap energy, too much coffee and ecstatic celebration as alumni, friends and Fellows met our appeals for help with frankly unbelievable generosity. Wimbledon tickets, stunning holiday destinations, haute couture fashion, even a prize draw for students: our community gave their all for Somerville. Finally, in May 2021, we came together for a gala finale, where celebrity friends including Susie Dent and Natasha Kaplinsky joined us for a rollercoaster evening of bidding and laughter.

Once the bids were in and the art sold via professional galleries, there came the thrill of seeing our lucky winners enjoy their experiences. The delight of everyone involved was surely heightened by knowing they were part of a circle of giving, supporting the essential needs of Somerville in the face of unprecedented challenge.

THE AUCTION IN NUMBERS

69 lots

1,000 bids

from the THANKS PRESIDENT JCR

by DI YING

This year, Somerville had to do something unprecedented. We had to learn to live with the ‘new normal’, in a world remade in a shape that would have been unimaginable to our predecessors. And yet, thanks to your generous support, our community didn’t just survive, it flourished.

First, there was your amazing and timely support for the Covid Relief Fund. Your support ensured that our students were able to avoid hardship caused by the pandemic and continue their studies without the fear of losing their accommodation or being forced to defer. The same fund was equally valuable, I know, for our early-career tutors, to whom it offered a valuable bursary for web-cam kits to use when remote-teaching.

In addition, there was your support for the Tech Fund, which will transform our ability to deliver Access and Outreach activities in the new online world. Offering virtual open days will radically democratise the College’s efforts to allow potential applicants from disadvantaged or under-represented backgrounds to gain a vivid insight into life at Somerville, raising aspirations that they, too, can one day join our community.

There is so much else for which we’re grateful –from individual gifts to the Auction. I hope that this report will begin to convey some of the incredible opportunities and moments your donations have facilitated, and will continue to facilitate, as well as our gratitude for the same. On behalf of all undergraduate students here, thank you – Somerville would not be Somerville without you.

Beyond the Colour Wheel

Shah Moore (2018, Psychology) is this year’s recipient of the British Neuropsychological Society’s Undergraduate Project Prize 2021. Shah received the award for ground-breaking research into the experience of colour and spatial categories among blind and sighted subjects, and was the recipient of a 2019 Irene Brown Bursary from Somerville College to slow the progression of their visual impairment.

It’s an idea most of us accept without question: the relationship between concepts is derived from our experiences. But what if you have never had a certain experience? What if you’re a blind or partially-sighted person trying to understand concepts that can can only be experienced through vision, such as the relationship between colours, or objects in space? These are the questions which Shah Moore, working with their supervisor, Kate Watkins, sought to answer in a final year research project conducted at the height of the pandemic.

The study took as its starting point the desire to resolve contradictions in the findings of previous research. Some studies suggested that the blind conceptualise colour in both dimensions as per the Newtonian colour wheel, i.e. warm vs. cold and bright vs. dark. However, other studies found that blind colour spaces were unidimensional. In addition to this question, Shah also wanted to explore how blind vs. sighted groups represent spatial prepositions, such as above, below around and between, given that blind individuals

rely on touch and audition alone in guiding object positioning.

Through a combination of pair dissimilarity tasks, plotted maps of concept relationships and questionnaires, the study confirmed that two dimensions was the best fit model for all participants for both colour and spatial experiments. This conclusion has significant ramifications, because it suggests that humans can establish detailed conceptual knowledge with limited direct experience; language, sensory comparison and metaphor alone are enough to convey the relationships between colours and spatial relations.

Speaking of the prize, Shah commented: ‘It is a huge honour for our project to be recognised by the BNS. As someone born with a severe visual impairment, I was thrilled to be able to give something back to the blind and visually-impaired community - and I am so grateful to Somerville College for supporting me throughout this project.’

The Irene Brown Bursary is awarded to studentswithadisability.

The spatial prepositions experiment was an impressive, major contribution, combining complex quantitative and qualitative approaches.”

Future Proof: The Covid Hardship Fund

By the summer of 2020, we all knew that 2019-20 would be a year to remember. We also knew that College finances were likely to take a hit of not less than £1 million per year for as long as the pandemic lasted, mostly through lost rental, accommodation and conferencing income. Further hits were anticipated through College seeking to mitigate student hardship, including supporting student welfare and assisting postgraduates whose research had been disrupted through loss of labs or travel.

All of these costs were right and proper for Somerville to pay – but the money had to come from somewhere. Fortunately, Somerville is good in a tight spot.

In October 2020, we launched our ‘Future Proof’ Covid Hardship Fund, with a target of raising £100,000 in a month. Recognising the importance of the cause, our extraordinary community of supporters rallied round like never before. We ended the month

of October 127% over target, having raised £127,467 from 387 donors, including matched funding of £55,150.

We cannot express our gratitude to our donors properly for this support: unrestricted funds like these are vital in allowing Somerville to react flexibly, allocating money where it’s needed most for our students and community.

“The COVID-19 hardship fund will help all students at Somerville secure further access to critical resources like the college counselling service or financial hardship support.”

Embracing the New Normal: THE DIGITAL FUND

Somerville was an early adopter of online events with our ‘Somerville At Home’ series, but, by Michaelmas 2020, everyone could see these new platforms were here to stay. We also wanted to consolidate the success of the Access and Outreach team’s Virtual Open Days, which offer ever greater and more egalitarian avenues to connect with prospective applicants.

We duly went to our community with a fundraising target of £30,000 for professional AV kit – and our community once again rose to the challenge. We raised over £50,000 from 37 donors. Special thanks go to Lynn Haight, Virginia Ross, Trevor Hughes, Rosamund Williams and the Somerville London Group for their generous support, the fruits of which can already be seen on the Somerville website and YouTube channel.

In Search of Lost Time SUPPORTING OUR 2020 LEAVERS

In September 2020, moved by the stories of Somerville’s finalists who had lost their last months at Oxford to lockdown, Somerville Development Board Member Sophie Forsyth proposed to raise funds for a leavers’ weekend by hosting an evening of opera at London’s Wigmore Hall. The night featured an eclectic programme curated by celebrated bass Matthew Rose and performed by young singers who had been deprived of a stage for over 6 months. We would like to extend our thanks to Sophie and Hamish Forsyth for their organising genius, to Matthew Rose for bringing so many excellent performers together with an audience and, of course, to everyone who supported this event and gave generously.

The Wigmore Hall event raised £25,000, allowing our 2020 leavers

to return to the college in September 2021 to graduate with their friends and bid farewell to their time in Oxford. A BBQ one evening and Formal the next, with the beloved Somerville brunch in between, guaranteed plenty of opportunities for touchstone experiences. Conversations ranged long into the night and afternoons were spent lazing on the Quad; it’s clear what these newly graduated alumni missed most was each other.

“After such an abrupt ending to the 2019-20 academic year, it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces again and find out what everyone had been up to since leaving. I can’t thank the alumni enough for this chance to reconnect.”

JOEL SUMMERFIELD (2017, MATHS)

“The BBQ on the Terrace was wonderful and a great chance to catch up with our cohort while reminiscing late into the night. Thank you so much for making this week-end possible!”

ILONA CLAYTON (2016, HISTORY AND GERMAN)

“I have been incredibly impressed by the stoicism shown by Somerville students who have missed out on so many of the ‘rites of passage’ experiences that we were lucky enough to take for granted. It felt profoundly important to raise funds for our leavers to celebrate their achievements. To do so through a remarkable concert that also provided work for young musicians was fantastic.”

SOPHIE FORSYTH (1989, ANCIENT AND MODERN HISTORY)

Strengthening French Studies at Somerville

Brexit may have altered the landscape for the teaching of modern languages. But French studies continue to thrive undaunted at Somerville with the help of a generous in memoriam gift from an anonymous donor, explains Professor Simon Kemp, Somerville’s Tutorial Fellow in the subject.

In October 2020, we welcomed one of the largest and most diverse cohorts of Freshers the college has ever seen to the subject to explore the first-year literature course which runs from the medieval narrative poem of love and jealousy, La Chatelaine de Vergy to Marie NDiaye’s twenty-first-century satire, Papa doit manger.

At the other end of the degree course, meanwhile, all of our finalists opted to begin their Final Honours School studies by delving into the

modern period of literature. They will start their journey with classics of nineteenth-century French Realism, after which they will head off in different directions through our newly revised and expanded course options, which welcome significant new voices from the francophone Arab world, the Caribbean and sub-Saharan Africa, alongside European poets, novelists and playwrights.

In French language teaching, changes in immigration rules following Brexit

forced us to end our longstanding arrangement with the École Normale Supérieure in Lyon to send us annually a lecteur or lectrice who would hold our students’ conversation classes and other speaking and listening practice alongside their own studies. In its place, we are delighted to have been able to create a new post of Lecturer in French Language for the college, which combines the lecteur role with that of our former part-time language instructor. We are very pleased to welcome Dr Christophe Barnabé to the post this coming term, and look forward to the opportunities this presents to reinvent our spoken and written language provision and its relationship to the literary and cultural side of the course.

In October 2020, we welcomed one of the largest and most diverse cohort of Freshers the college has ever seen.

At a research level, I am continuing to supervise doctoral projects on Iris Murdoch’s and Simone de Beauvoir’s philosophy, on illness and existentialist thought, and on Samuel Beckett’s translations of his own work between French and English, while welcoming a new doctoral researcher who will examine representations of mental illness in contemporary women’s writing. In my own research, I am currently writing on theories of mind and their use in literary studies.

Digitising A Paradise of Dainty Devices

A unique collection of autographs, poems and sketches by preeminent early 20th Century writers, poets, and artists has been digitised and made available online thanks to a crowdfunding campaign.

A Paradise of Dainty Devices is the visitors’ book kept by doctor and writer Percy Withers (1867-1945), father of Somervillian and first female British Vogue editor Audrey Withers (1924, PPE), who donated his papers to Somerville

in 1976. The beautifully bound volume is no ordinary visitors’ book, however. Within its pages are handwritten contributions from writers such as AE Housman and WB Yeats, alongside sketches and watercolours by artists including Paul Nash and Max Beerbohm, all of whom visited Withers and his wife, the Somervillian Mary Withers (née Summers, 1881) at their home, Souldern Court.

A successful crowdfunding campaign in 2018, generously supported by Somerville’s friends and alumni, enabled us to digitise and upload the book to the Bodleian Library’s Digital Bodleian site. Now, following a hiatus brought on by the pandemic, this important collection can be viewed anywhere in the world.

YOU CAN ACCESS A PARADISE OF DAINTY DEVICES VIA THE FOLLOWING QR CODE.

We are particularly indebted to the generosity of Karen Gray and her husband Ian, the current owners of Souldern Court. Karen writes:

My interest in the Withers family began with a locked cupboard in Somerville College library. Hidden away inside was a hoard of correspondence, photographs taken by Percy Withers of his many guests, and the handwritten draft of his autobiography, including a description of the joyful day he first saw his future home (and later ours), Souldern Court.

Here began a fascination for my husband Ian and I that continues to this day. I will always be grateful for Somerville’s generosity in unlocking that cupboard and allowing me to explore this remarkable archive.

Regular Giving at Somerville

NIAMH WALSHE, REGULAR GIVING AND ALUMNI RELATIONS EXECUTIVE

‘Once a Somervillian, always a Somervillian’ is a sentiment that has long defined our alumni community – and nowhere is this sentiment more evident than in the loyalty of our regular supporters.

A record 1,319 Somervillians gave to the College in the past year, allowing us to provide more bursaries and hardship grants than ever before. Thanks to you, students who lost vacation jobs or parental support were able to receive financial support averaging £2,000 each.

The positive impact of this help cannot be overstated. Under Covid-19, students have needed our help more than ever to weather the stresses of daily life, financial hardship and uncertainty about the future.

Fundraising to support our students was made extrachallenging in 2020-21 because we couldn’t run a Telethon

in-person. Fortunately, our Database Office Melissa Gemmer-Johnson and Development Assistant Hannah Patrick, a recent Somerville graduate, were able to pioneer the first ever ‘in-house’ telethon.

With Hannah making the calls and Melissa providing the all-important info, Hannah was able to connect across generations of alumni, sharing updates on how our current students were faring and raising a phenomenal £52,000 in gifts and pledges from 99 donors.

Finally, I am delighted to share an update on our ongoing Sanctuary Scholarship work. This year, Somerville was recognised as a University College of Sanctuary and our first Sanctuary Scholar, Dr Marwa Biala, graduated with her MSc in Radiation Biology in November 2021. Her scholarship was funded directly through our crowdfunding projects and regular giving – meaning that it is your kindness which, year on year, enables Marwa and others like her to succeed against the odds.

“The support of our alumni community was essential in my first year, at a time when we were all dealing with the effects of Covid-19. I used the IT Kit Fund to aid my studies and many of my friends received vital support through the Covid Hardship Fund. That’s why I volunteered to become a Telethon Caller in Michaelmas 2021: I wanted to share my story as well as hear those of my predecessors, discovering the common ground of what it means to be a Somervillian.”
