Principal’s Welcome

BARONESS ROYALL of BLAISDON

"If you want to walk fast, walk alone. But if you want to walk far, walk together.”

This African proverb was one of the favourite sayings of Mr Ratan Tata (1937-2024), Chairman Emeritus of the Tata Group and one of India’s most respected business leaders. Yet with only a little imagination, I feel these same words could also serve as a sort of unwritten mantra for Somerville over the years.

Since our foundation in 1879, the Principal and Fellows of Somerville College have always understood the need to find people who can walk with us. In a world often unwilling to accept the type of change we called for, they saw the importance of building a community and populating it with friends and allies who shared our radical hopes.

It is from this very distinctive, very special community that Somerville College has derived much of its strength over the years – and this year has been no different. I am thrilled that we have found so many people willing to walk with us again, lending their strength to the causes of academic excellence and social progress which make us unique.

One such individual is the aforementioned Mr Ratan Tata. Earlier this year, we finalised our largest ever gift agreement with Mr Tata and the Tata Group to construct a new building here at Somerville.

The Ratan Tata Building represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to expand Somerville’s teaching and learning

provision and embody our College’s vision of a sustainable, forward-looking community. Situated opposite the new Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities, the building’s fluid design articulates a very Somervillian willingness to engage with the world and capitalise upon our place at the heart of the University’s future plans.

The Ratan Tata Building is the culmination of ten years of friendship and shared dreams with a man I deeply admired. But Mr Tata is far from being the only person to walk alongside us this year. Throughout this report, you will see how support of all different shapes and sizes has been fundamental to preserving and enhancing our community.

Who, for example, could overlook the memorial gift made by the family of Rosemary Hobsbaum (1955, English)? This elegantly conceived bird bath (see p22) will enhance the beauty and biodiversity of our gardens for years to come.

We also received a transformational legacy this year from the family of Dr Christian Carritt (1946, Physiology). Christian adored music, so in her memory we have agreed that her bequest will be used to guarantee in perpetuity her two great passions of music and medicine here at Somerville.

I must also take a moment to thank all of you who joined this year’s crowdfunders, and rallied to the causes we identified as being important. Thanks to your support, we have endowed a History Fellowship in memory of the irreplaceable Liz Cooke. We have also revitalised our nursery for the children of St Paul’s, and expanded on our provision of sanctuary scholarships in a time-honoured vindication of Somerville’s promise to include the excluded.

This academic year will be my last as Principal. I can hardly believe it. So much has happened in that time, in the world and in Somerville. There will, of course, be challenges ahead. But if my seven years here have taught me anything, it is that Somerville has the brain power and the passion to flourish under any circumstances.

So the journey will continue and, with such brilliant people walking alongside us, it will surely be a long and a happy one. Thank you sincerely for all you have done for me, for our students and for Somerville.

Development Director’s Report

Thank you so much for all you have done for Somerville in a record year of support for our College. At talks and reunions from Oxford to Asia, the power of our community has really shone through.

As the Principal has highlighted, we have now started work on a new building for Somerville. This building will stand on the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter opposite the Blavatnik School of Government, just behind Holtby and the Library. The transformational donation for this project will honour the late philanthropist and legendary industrialist, Ratan Tata. We have

also been delighted to receive further support from Somervillians towards this flagship project.

The new Ratan Tata building will provide vital teaching space for our tutors, shared learning space for students and a permanent home for interdisciplinary research on the most urgent global concerns. The building will also benefit from its location opposite the Stephen Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities. We share the University’s commitment to the humanities, and this will become an increasing focus as we seek to protect our most vulnerable subjects.

In last year’s report you will have read our tribute to the inimitable and beloved Liz Cooke, and our intention to name one of our History Fellowships for her. In response, hundreds of you came together to raise an astonishing £1,000,000 for Liz. We think she would have been shocked and amused, perhaps a little embarrassed, but secretly pleased by this outpouring of support. Our new Liz Cooke Fellow in History is her good friend Professor Benjamin Thompson, our senior tutor in the subject. Thank you for enabling us to create this lasting legacy to someone who was the embodiment of Somerville for so many of us.

Hundreds of you came together to create this lasting legacy to Liz Cooke

One of the largest contributions to our new History fellowship came from a long-time friend of Liz, the distinguished physician, Dr Christian Carritt. Christian died just a month before Liz and I was able to let Liz know of the munificent legacy that her friend had left the College. Christian had a true love of both the arts and the sciences, and you can read how both of these will be strengthened in her memory for years to come on p22.

While Christian’s legacy is one of the largest we have received, legacies of all shapes and sizes have a huge impact on the life of the College. This year, one memorable legacy came from Ann Gray (1953, English). In addition to a generous bequest, she left to College her MA Gown and Hood “absolutely with the express wish that they should be offered to a Somerville English Graduate”. In due course, this will make a treasured possession for a Somerville student.

Of our regular appeals, a memorable one was in support of the Somerville Nursery (see feature, p20). This culminated in the most endearing celebratory tea party, at which the older nursery children ‘graduated’ in mini subfusc and thanked those who had contributed to enhancing their play area and equipment (see p20).

Our events programme has been rich and varied this year, often made possible through alumni generosity not just in financial support, but in exclusive access to interesting locations and specialist talks.

A particular highlight was Family Day, our most popular event for alumni and their families, made possible this year by Campaign Board member Emma Haight. Hundreds attended under blazing heat to enjoy fairground attractions and masterclasses with our academics on topics ranging from Old English riddles to plankton!

In December, our Choir embarked on their second tour of India to mark the decade anniversary of the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development, a hugely culturally enriching experience. Then, over Easter, we set off on a mini-tour of South Asia which began with meeting 30 Somervillians for sundowners over Marina Bay in Singapore. We embarked on our first visit to Malaysia, culminating in an Iftar hosted by Yuan Yeoh, while in Hong Kong, Josh Yiu helped us convene a Principal’s fireside chat at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

As summer approached, alumni joined us for Fellows’ talks in Oxford and London across everything from Medieval History to AI. We also met up for alumni talks on tea caddies and Middle Temple murders, both of which drew impressive crowds. Our legacy group, the Penrose Society, gathered in May for a beautiful afternoon of music and a guided tour of the gardens. Finally in June, we staged a unique Celebration of Sanctuary with a special screening of the film One Life, which highlighted the work of three Somervillians in rescuing Jews and Czech dissidents from the Nazis in WWII.

Special thanks must go to our leading volunteers in the Alumni Association (President Nermeen Varawalla)

Legacies of all shapes and sizes have a huge impact on the life of the College

and Development Board (Co-Chairs Ayla Busch and Sybella Stanley), and to our Development and Alumni team. Together, their commitment to engaging our community and keeping us together is second to none.

Above all, we are deeply grateful to you, our supporters, for your constant loyalty, kindness and generosity to Somerville.

Treasurer’s Report

Iam pleased to report that the academic year 2023-24 has been a strong one for the college financially, with our total net assets increasing by £10m from £228m to £238m.

There are four core reasons for this year’s strong financial performance, each of which I shall detail below. But I should add that the most profound of these is without doubt the unwavering support given by you, the Somerville community. Thank you, as ever, for all you do for our College.

1. Easing of cost pressures

The previous couple of years saw our costs increase as a result of general inflationary pressures and a rise in utility process in particular. This year has seen those cost pressures ease. CPI, which peaked at 10%, is now back within touching distance of the Bank of England’s target. Utility costs, which a few years ago were £250k p.a., peaked at £750k p.a. last year and are now back around £450k. At the same time, our income has increased. Tuition fee income from overseas students increased by £0.4m (26%), and our trading income from conferences and commercial dinners increased by £0.2m (21%) in the year. Simultaneously, the costs of delivering our core activities (teaching, research and residential), were well controlled, increasing by just £0.4m (2.7%).

2. Release of the USS pension provision

In recent years we have been obliged by the university to set up a provision against additional future employer contributions into the USS pension scheme, which was at the time in significant deficit. This provision stood at £2m at the end of the previous year. Over the course of 202324, a recovery in the scheme’s asset values pushed it into significant surplus allowing us to release the £2m provision in full this year.

3. Growth in the value of our investments

During the year our endowment grew by £8m from £91m to a tantalising £99m. Just under £7m of this growth came from an investment gain, with the remainder coming from Christian Carritt’s legacy. The year also saw a welcome gain of £0.8m in the value of our off-site residential investment properties.

The final piece in the puzzle of this year’s College finances was your support

4. The generosity of our donors

As always, the final piece in the puzzle of this year's College finances was your support. This year income from donations and legacies totalled an amazing £5.1m, representing an increase of £1.8m (54%) on 2022-23, which was itself a strong year. During the year the college received a legacy of £3m from the estate of Dr Christian Carritt, (with a further £0.45m to follow in 2024-25). Other significant donations included £0.2m into the Margaret Thatcher Scholarship Trust, unrestricted legacies from John Wells and Cathy King of £0.2m and £0.3m respectively, £0.3m in memory of Liz Cooke, £0.2m for the Oxford India Centre and £0.1m into the Sanctuary Fund.

These numbers exclude the extraordinary in-life legacy of Dr Peggie Rimmer, who has gifted the College her flat on Banbury Road, valued at £1m. Accounting standards do not allow us to reflect the flat’s value in our accounts due to the nature of the gift agreement, but this far-sighted gift will in due course prove transformative.

Thank you again for your support this year, and for enabling Somerville to remain on an even keel whatever the weather.

Why English Matters

Professor Annie Sutherland is a specialist in medieval women’s writing who this year celebrates twenty years as our Rosemary Woolf Fellow in Old and Middle English. She joins us to reflect on what makes English at Somerville so special.

I think there are lots of reasons why English students flourish at Somerville. One of them is the distinctive ethos of Somerville itself. Our Freshers quickly notice how Somerville feels different to other colleges, less like a castle and more like a home. They still have the sense of joining an institution with a long and illustrious history, but our tutorial rooms and our hall, even our beautiful library, don’t intimidate newcomers. They have a well-loved simplicity, a concern for the essentials of thought, which inspires rather than inhibits confidence.

Our students also benefit from a unique tradition of scholarship in English. As the College’s Rosemary Woolf Fellow, for example, I always teach using one of Rosemary’s articles, and tell students my post is named for her. I explain how she was a remarkable and prolific medieval scholar, and they get a real sense of ownership and pride from knowing they’re in a place with a history of people doing important work.

Then there is the atmosphere we create in tutorials. Like Somerville itself, this can be characterised as intellectually rigorous, but fundamentally kind. For me, it’s best captured by the paper in Old English I teach to our Freshers each year. The students arrive not knowing each other or Old English, and feeling rather terrified by it all. They pile into my study, where they discover there will always be biscuits, and very often my dog Betsy, and we have fun. We laugh a lot. And yet behind the laughter, driving their progress, is the unspoken knowledge that we’re treating them as equals whose ideas can and should have real power.

That’s what English is all about, really: the journey towards developing true critical awareness. One of my favourite starting points on that journey is Ancrene Wisse, a thirteenth-century instructional manual for anchoresses (female religious recluses) written by a male cleric. On first inspection, Ancrene Wisse sounds rather uninteresting and looks even worse, as it’s written in very early Middle English. But if you read it carefully, guided by someone who knows it well, you realise there’s a huge amount of fascinating, unsettling material there. Students particularly respond to how it engages with questions of gender; it is in some ways problematically misogynistic, yet in others gives a lot of agency to its female readers.

Recently, we’ve used Ancrene Wisse to tease out the analogies between the world of the medieval anchoress and the contemporary discourse around women’s reproductive rights. It makes for one of those epiphanies which literature does so well, collapsing geographies and time, and making students sit up and think, oh my goodness, this text speaks directly to me and my world. By piecing together the similarities, as well as the differences, between the present moment and the medieval world, students gain the confidence to start tracing the other patterns and trends that continue to shape our lives.

Ancrene Wisse makes for one of those epiphanies which literature does so well, collapsing geographies and time

For instance, having read Ancrene Wisse, students go on to read the late medieval anchoress Julian of Norwich with more awareness. They can see how she is proposing ideas that are really very radical, such as the validity of personal experience of the divine, but also how she maintains a constant, self-effacing commentary. Juxtaposing these two elements enables students to recognise that the “I’m not worthy” protestations are really a means of neutralising the radical charge of her ideas; Julian is owning her voice strategically as a means of negotiating the misogyny and problematic power structures of her time in a way that is inspiring, even emancipatory, for students.

Why does all this matter? For me, it comes down to two points. First, by introducing our students to ways of writing and constructing literature, we’re introducing them not only to ideas and schools of thought, but to the fact that people have always worried about the same types of problems. We've always been worried about loneliness, about repression and otherness, about the fact that life doesn't last forever. By confronting this single, inescapable truth, our students learn to think critically, but also compassionately – and we sorely need people who can think like that in today’s world.

Second, our English students learn the equal and opposite lesson of literature which is that, yes, there are obstacles, but if you find your voice, then you can deploy it powerfully. By looking at texts in which not just women, but other marginalised groups and people are presented as having found their voice, we model for Somerville students the importance of taking risks, being true to oneself and, ultimately, living a life that has value.

Somerville College is currently seeking to raise £15,000 a year for 3 years to enable the creation of the Anne Hudson Scholarship in Middle English at Somerville, in partnership with the University of Oxford. To support this project, please contact katariina.kottonen@ some.ox.ac.uk

SONG CYCLE

Discovering Britain with the Cerrie Hughes Prize for English

Franciszek Noga (2022, English) is the 2023-24 recipient of the Cerrie Hughes Prize for English. He tells us how he used the award to realise a long-awaited adventure.

Outside my studies, I enjoy almost any sport that involves being outside. So when I heard that I had won the Cerrie Hughes Prize for English, my first reaction was to be overwhelmed with surprise and gratitude; my second reaction was that it gave me an idea.

For some time, I had been dreaming of a multi-day bike ride across a large chunk of Britain. As soon as I heard that I had won this award, I decided to use my prize money to fulfil that dream.

After poring over the maps, I decided to opt for the 900km route from Land’s End to Bangor, North Wales. To prepare, I trained throughout Trinity, waking up at five every morning to put in my daily 50km. It was magical, if exhausting, to roll back into Oxford each morning to find the city still mostly asleep.

When the holidays arrived, I bought my tent and train tickets to Penzance – both of which were eye-wateringly expensive,

but the prize money eased my pain. After five hours on the train, I stepped out into a mild Cornish breeze that nonetheless held a distinct tang of rain.

I wasn’t wrong. Despite a balmy tenday forecast, those first few days were defined by horizontal rain and brutal hills. Eventually, with everything I owned either soaked or rusty, I took refuge at my girlfriend’s place in Bristol.

After a day drying out, I resumed my journey. The Wye Valley gave me my first taste of Welsh roads. It was astonishingly beautiful, filled with gurgling streams and silent, ancient woodland. This set the scene for the rest of my trip. The weather was wonderful, the trees fragrant, and the scenery beautiful – though increasingly jagged as I approached Snowdonia.

From Barmouth to Bangor was the best cycling I’ve ever known. I spent hours smiling or laughing out loud at the absurd beauty of it all. On the banks of

the Menai Strait, I ate a Snickers bar and gazed at Anglesey, imagining the Roman legions that had stood where I now sat, eyeing with trepidation the last unconquered swathe of southern Britain. Groups of druids had stood on that far shore, waving their staffs in defiance.

From Caernarfon, I spun slowly to Bangor and journey’s end. I was a little disappointed by the lack of public celebration as I rolled into town. But it was good to meet up with my girlfriend, who had been on a road trip of her own, and spend the night laughing and telling tales about our adventures.

The next day I loaded my bike onto the train back to Paddington, knowing I’d had the time of my life.

I spent hours smiling or laughing out loud at the absurd beauty of it all.

Thanks FROM THE JCR

JCR President Maddie Gordon looks back at how the Somerville community enabled students to flourish this year.

There has been much to be grateful for this past year at Somerville College, not least the support of the Somerville community, which has been integral to the Junior Common Room’s many events, campaigns and activities. As we look ahead to another exciting academic year, I want to offer, on behalf of the JCR, my sincere thanks to this incredible community. Your generosity, engagement and efforts have been instrumental in enhancing the vibrancy of college life.

One of the shining accomplishments of the JCR this year was BAME Access Roadshow, an initiative made possible by Somerville alumni. The roadshow exemplified students’ work to deliver inclusivity at the grass-roots level, as we worked with BAME secondary school students to demystify Oxford and break down the barriers that prevent young people applying to Oxbridge.

We are also grateful to alumni for their support of so many of the hobbies and extracurricular activities

that undergraduate students engage in. The Somerville College Boat Club were delighted to attend a day long ‘strategy day’ to support their Summer VII’s efforts thanks to SCBC alumni, and the Student Sports and Wellbeing Fund has enabled many of our undergraduates to pursue sporting endeavours without financial barriers. In the cultural sphere, the fantastic Somerville College Choir simply could not have embarked on their recent tour of India without the amazing generosity of GS Gives, Mr Sonjoy Chatterjee, Virginia Ross and other anonymous donors. I hear that the Choir’s unique model of progressive choral music went down a storm at venues across India, and I know our Choir members loved being able to take part in outreach work with local schools and charities. This was an incredible opportunity, especially for Somerville students who had not travelled outside the UK before.

Altogether, our year as undergraduate students at Somerville has been whole-heartedly enriched by the generosity of alumni. Students have been empowered to extend themselves beyond their degrees through a midst of stimulating endeavours, but also to give back to local communities in a further gesture of how the Somerville community creates long-lasting, farreaching change.

From the Somerville JCR, thank you so much for this support, and we hope to continue the incredible relationship we have with our alumni in the years ahead.

MEET THE DPHIL STUDENT

Harvesting the Winds of Change

Tim Rafferty (2022, DPhil Engineering) is an Oxford Thatcher Scholar. He joins us to explain how his work on the interaction between gravity waves and wind farms could drive the transition to renewable energy.

If you ask most people to predict where the power generation in a wind farm is weakest, they’ll probably guess towards the back. It’s a logical assumption, if you figure that downstream turbines sit in the wake of upstream ones. And in fact this concept of ‘wake deficit’ has for years been used as the key parameter in the design of an efficient wind farm.

But what if recent developments in the simulation of wind farms upended this core assumption? Specifically, what if someone discovered that wind

farms generate gravity waves, which in turn have a significant impact on wind farm performance?

That’s the basis of my doctoral research with my colleagues in the wind and tidal energy group. Studying wind farms under realistic atmospheric conditions, we’ve proven that wind farms undoubtedly trigger atmospheric gravity waves. These conditions are consistently seen in the North Sea, where most large wind farms are built. The waves are triggered by wind farms acting as a blockage to the flow, vertically

displacing it similar to how wind displaces over a hill.

These gravity waves drastically alter the pressure field around the farm, resulting in a change in the performance of wind turbines. Under gravity wave conditions, the turbines at the front of the farm perform up to ten times worse, while those at the back improve in performance, even outperforming those in the middle of the farm. Given that these farms comprise hundreds of turbines, the percentage changes in power production as a result of gravity waves can be equivalent to the turbines not even operating.

So, with each turbine representing millions of pounds in cost and lost revenue, it’s clear we need to

understand these atmospheric gravity wave phenomena, and reconsider our key parameters for wind farm design.

To realise that goal, my research on gravity waves focuses on three themes. First of all, do these waves impact the turbines themselves? Our original safety models concentrated on power production rather than atmospheric effects, so the additional loading from gravity waves on the blade, nacelle and tower is unknown. What we do know is that atmospheric gravity waves can be extremely destructive, as in the tragic 1966 case when a Boeing 707 airliner was torn apart as a result of a gravity wave triggered by a mountain range. Therefore, it seems likely that current turbines are not designed to withstand these high wave loads, and the turbine heights and entire structure may need to be redesigned to pre-empt the owner and insurer facing costly repairs.

My second challenge is to understand whether wind farm planning can be used to control the impact of gravity

waves. Could the shape of a wind farm impact the strength of the gravity wave triggered? And could careful design mitigate their triggering in the first place? Furthermore, the distance between farms needs to be re-considered. Our preliminary investigations have indicated that farm power production can vary by 50% when situated downstream of a wavetriggering farm. Thus, it will be vital to include farm separation in future site planning.

Finally, my colleagues and I want to consider how the atmospheric conditions at different locations might be used to benefit wind farms and thus the renewable energy output of the UK. Traditionally, locations for farms and their daily predicted power outputs are based on wind speed. However, these gravity wave effects along with other atmospheric factors are often more impactful on the overall power production, so a more complete atmospheric structure should be weighted into decision.

For the sake of future generations and the fight against climate change, it’s time we take wind seriously

A thought to finish with: this summer the UK produced over 40% of its power from offshore wind, proving the enormous potential of this renewable energy source. But imagine if we could exponentially increase wind farm capacity through holistic design that recognises the complex interplay between wind farms, atmospheric effects and gravity waves. For the sake of future generations and the fight against climate change, it’s time we take wind seriously.

Michael Bishop Foundation extends support of the Thatcher Scholarship Programme

The Michael Bishop Foundation has supported the Thatcher Scholarship Programme from day one, funding one new Michael Bishop Foundation Thatcher Scholar per year since 2016. This year, Lord Glendonbrook and Martin Ritchie took the characteristically bold step of expanding that provision. Over the next six years, the Foundation will support eight further scholarships in addition to the annual one. We are deeply grateful to the Michael Bishop Foundation for the faith that they have put in this transformational programme, and for creating a body of scholars that represents a living tribute to Lord Glendonbrook.

Alyson Bailes History Prize

When Alyson Bailes (1966, Modern History) died in 2016 aged just 67, her Somerville friends Roz Morris and Venetia Kudrle felt that the most fitting tribute they could pay to their friend was the Alyson Bailes History Prize.

The prize, they envisaged, would be awarded annually to the History student with the best performance in preliminary History exams. It would be a way to remember the legacy of a phenomenal historian, but also an unforgettable friend. Alyson was someone entirely singular. The kind of person who loved Icelandic heavy metal and science fiction, but who also spoke 11 languages fluently and was always happy to share her notes or latest opinions over pots of admirably strong coffee.

THE ALUMNI

Anna Jones (2017, History):

I just qualified as a solicitor specialising in international fraud and asset recovery, with a particular focus on Asia. I also recently returned to the UK after working in Singapore for 6 months.

Selina Whiteman-Gardener (née Schoelles, 2018, History):

I completed my BA in 2022 then read for an MSt in Medieval History in 2023. I'm now in the second year of a DPhil in Medieval History, and happily still at Somerville!

After gaining a first from Somerville, Alyson went on to achieve top marks in the Diplomatic Service entrance exam, leading to a career in the Foreign Office. Her expertise on NATO and global defence issues were unparalleled, culminating in her appointment as HM Ambassador to Finland and, latterly, a role as CEO of SIPRI, the prestigious Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.

As Roz Morris notes, ‘Alyson was without a doubt one of the cleverest, as well as one of the kindest, people I’ve ever met. I am so grateful that we have been able to support this prize for the past seven years, thereby encouraging first year History students to follow in Alyson’s lifelong search for knowledge.’

We take a moment here to learn how Alyson’s legacy has inspired the past and present recipients of this meaningful prize.

Magda Kosciolek (2019, History):

I graduated from Oxford two years ago, finished an MA in Sociology at LSE and am currently living in Germany, working as a project manager in the FMCG sector.

Sonny Pickering (2020: History):

After leaving Somerville, I trained as a teacher and am now teaching secondary History at a school in South London.

Anna Roizes (2021, History):

Having completed my BA in History, I am now working towards my Master’s in European Studies at the University of Amsterdam.

THE CURRENT STUDENTS

Lucy Pollock (2023, History):

It is an immense honour to receive an award named after such an inspiring woman and dedicated historian. Receiving this award has inspired me to pursue a Master’s in history and, following Alyson’s example, to consider diplomacy as a long-term career path.

Harry Stewart Dilley (2023, History):

After my degree, I hope to channel Alyson’s own internationalism and pivot to a career in law. In particular, I plan to focus on competition and regulation in the transport sector to consider how further reform could be used to leverage progress in the Green Transition across borders.

Flora Prideaux (2022, History):

After Somerville, I hope to work as a foreign correspondent in the Middle East. Right now, I’m learning Arabic and French so I can access untranslated sources for my dissertation on recent conflict in Algeria. It's inspiring to learn about Alyson, who pursued so many of the same interests at Somerville, then went on to have such an incredible life. I hope to do the same.

The Alyson Bailes History Prize is a meaningful way for tutors to encourage and motivate first-year students. We introduce it at our freshers’ induction, emphasising that excellence is achievable for everyone, regardless of their starting point. The prize highlights how much students can accomplish after just three terms at Oxford.

Towards a New Decade of Inclusion

In 2023, the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development celebrated a decade of unlocking potential through scholarship. As we embark for the future, we are thrilled to announce three new scholarships that will enable us to continue our mission of making Oxford more accessible to all.

The three newly inaugurated scholars are the Dr Gita Piramal Scholar Sanjana Choudhary and our two Amansa Scholars Tabina Manzoor (profiled opposite) and Tanaya Nair. We are also proud to welcome our new Savitribai Phule Scholar, Dr Gladson Vaghela

Sanjana Choudhary, Dr Gita Piramal Graduate Scholar 2024

Sanjana Choudhary is reading for an MSc in Modern South Asian Studies at the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies. She holds a BA in Journalism from the University of Delhi. Sanjana’s academic path is shaped by her heritage as a descendant of survivors of the 1984 Bhopal Gas Tragedy, and her journalism explores South Asian history and literature with a focus on environmental justice and social inequality. At Oxford, she studies epistemic violence and ‘sacrifice zones’, aspiring to advocate for labour rights and marginalized communities in South Asia.

Tanaya Nair, Amansa DPhil Scholar 2024

Tanaya Nair is an ecologist and artist from Bangalore reading for a DPhil in Geography and the Environment. Her research explores the impacts of climate change on species in tropical forests and grasslands, aiming to develop recovery strategies to safeguard vulnerable species and habitats. Through participatory, art-science interventions, Tanaya seeks to engage local communities in environmental care, aligning her work with sustainable development goals that enhance well-being and ecological preservation in India.

A Voice for Equality: In Memoriam Mr Shri N. G. Katti

This year we gratefully received a gift towards the Phule Scholarship in memory of Mr Shri N. G. Katti. A gifted linguist, Sanskrit and literary scholar, Mr Katti nevertheless followed a career as a science teacher, serving as a lecturer at Rajaram College, Kolhapur (Maharashtra) until his death in 2001. Mr Katti was a firm advocate for the education of women and minority groups, especially members of the Dalit community. He put his principles into practice without preaching, and would have been delighted that this donation was made in his name.

PURE GENIUS: Protecting Water for the People of Kashmir

Tabina Manzoor is one of two inaugural Amansa Scholars to join the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development in 2024-25 thanks to philanthropic support. She explained to Neeraj Shetye, OICSD Partnerships and Communications Manager, the principles driving her research.

When Tabina Manzoor came to Somerville this year, she became the first Kashmiri scholar to join the OICSD. Kashmir most often makes headlines for its ongoing conflict, with the result that issues affecting the local population are overlooked. Tabina hopes to challenge this by reading for an MSc in Water Science, Policy and Management at the School of Geography and Environment, and using her research to improve conditions in Kashmir.

Before coming to Oxford, Tabina graduated from the University of Kashmir with an MSc in Environmental Sciences. There, she was part of a team funded by the Government of India’s Science and Engineering Research Board that

studied the conditions of springs in the region. Freshwater springs have been a major water source for the population, but anthropogenic threats and bad policy implementation have led to their deterioration.

Tabina’s research focuses on how springs managed by local communities are in better shape than concretised solutions implemented as part of national policies. Her goal is to continue advocating for improved policy solutions where local stakeholders are included in the decision-making process.

Describing her research, Tabina said, ‘Water management is a crucial aspect of sustainable development for a country like India where it directly relates to food security, economic

stability and gender equity. After all, the responsibility of securing water inevitably falls on the women in the family’.

As a first-generation learner from rural Kashmir, Tabina added that spaces like Oxford always felt inaccessible to her. Then she attended a workshop by Project EduAccess, an Oxford-based student-led initiative which mentors marginalised students across India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, and they encouraged her to apply.

Without this scholarship, my Oxford offer was a square peg in a round hole

Tabina is one of two inaugural Amansa Scholars at the OICSD (see left). The Amansa Scholarships were enabled by Ms. Amee Parikh and Mr Akash Prakash of Amansa Capital, who have generously agreed to support two more scholars in the next two years.

Tabina concluded, ‘Without this scholarship, my Oxford offer was “a square peg in a round hole”. It has offered me an avenue to test my ideas and engage with understudied topics like the effects of climate change in conflict-zones.’

MEET SOMERVILLE'S NEW

SANCTUARY SCHOLARS

In 2021, Somerville and Mansfield Colleges became the first Colleges of Sanctuary in the UK.

Since then, Somerville has welcomed 12 refugee students to Somerville as Sanctuary Scholars. We have embedded the principles of welcome and refuge through high-profile events and college-wide initiatives, and even inspired the central university to follow us in becoming a University of Sanctuary.

Now, thanks to your support, our Sanctuary programme is growing even further. In 2024-25, you have enabled us to welcome eight new, fully-funded Sanctuary Scholars to Somerville. Six of these brilliant young people are profiled opposite.

Christin is from As-Suwayda in southern Syria. She left Syria in 2015, but the country remains the wellspring of her academic research and art. Her BA specialised in Ethics and Politics, and her interest in anthropology was fostered by living on four continents and in six countries before the age of twenty-four. She has worked on archival projects tracing Syrian women’s stories and the history of the Arab diaspora in Brazil, and is a passionate storyteller who creates comics, audio stories, fiction and art.

Wantoe Teah Wantoe (2024, MSc Comparative and International Education)

Wantoe Teah Wantoe is a lifelong advocate for human rights, education and youth development. Driven by his experiences growing up as a refugee in Ghana’s Buduburam Refugee Camp, he served as youth representative to Liberia’s Independent National Human Rights Commission and documented the experience of orphaned children during Liberia’s Ebola outbreak. He subsequently became the youngest preliminary speaker at the UN World Humanitarian Summit 2016, received a Princess Diana Award in 2019 and was named one of eight “Young Pacesetters for African Development” in 2021. In 2023, he was Orator at Liberia’s National Flag Day, and currently serves as Executive Director of both the Center for African Policy and Scholarly Path.

As a Somerville Sanctuary Scholar, Wantoe is committed to using education as a tool for social change, continuing his mission to empower youth, promote inclusivity, and foster sustainable development in Africa and beyond.

Perfecting playtime for Somerville's Smallest Students

On a bright Sunday afternoon in July, alumni, donors, and families gathered at Somerville to celebrate a very special occasion: the transformation of the outdoor space at our very own St. Paul’s Nursery.

This remarkable transformation was made possible by a crowdfunder project we held back in February 2024. Thanks to the enthusiastic support of our alumni and an extraordinary £10,000 matched gift from Sue and Kevin Scollan, we met our fundraising goal for the project within just four hours of launch.

Six months later, supporters, staff and the families of St Paul’s students reunited to see the remarkable transformation the project had delivered for the children of St Paul’s.

A guided tour showed how the ground, once uneven, was now resurfaced to create a safe area for children to run and play. Guests admired the new sustainable play equipment, designed to withstand years of adventure and embraced with evident delight by the children who were eager to show us their expert knowledge of everything.

Following the tour, we returned to the Quad for tea, cake, and scoops of ice cream as parents, staff and former pupils shared their memories of St. Paul’s. Our celebrations culminated in a mini-graduation ceremony for those

children moving on to primary school. Wearing mini caps and gowns, each child received a certificate, applauded by families and friends, while our supporters looked on with pride.

It was a touching moment, reminding us of the role St. Paul’s plays in nurturing confidence, curiosity, and friendships for the children of Somerville’s academics and staff. It also allowed donors a chance to see their contributions brought to exuberant, colourful life. Finally, the crowdfunder offered an important means for our community to remember the enduring legacy of Professor Dorothy Hodgkin, whose advocacy for women academics enabled the creation of St Paul’s Nursery with money received from her Nobel Prize.

Thanks to your generosity, Hodgkin’s pioneering vision lives on, ensuring our nursery continues to thrive as a vital resource for Somerville families.

A Year in the Somerville Fund

The Somerville Fund serves as a lifeline for students, projects, and community enrichment activities at Somerville, writes Jackie Yip, our Regular Giving and Alumni Relations Executive.

Each year, through the generosity of alumni and friends, the Somerville Fund provides critical financial support in the form of hardship grants, scholarships, and academic opportunities. This past year has been especially impactful: over 75 hardship grants, amounting to more than £289,000, have directly assisted students facing financial difficulties.

The Cedar Circle – a devoted group of Somerville Fund contributors – has grown substantially. This year, we celebrated its members’ ongoing commitment via a special online event highlighting the tangible difference their support has made.

The Somerville Fund in numbers

Cedar Circle members are more than just donors: they are key partners in strengthening Somerville’s mission to provide inclusive education and foster a connected, resilient community.

Regular giving is essential to planning for the future, allowing us to allocate resources effectively and respond to emerging needs. In particular, the unrestricted nature of these contributions allows us to address unforeseen challenges, ensuring we can support students in various circumstances.

Our recent telethon illustrated the importance of regular giving. By engaging with alumni and securing vital funds, we reinforced our ability to offer immediate support where needed most. This connection not only raises essential resources but also cultivates a community that values sustained contributions, ultimately enhancing the stability and impact of the Somerville Fund.

As we look ahead, the Somerville Fund’s focus on accessibility, academic excellence, and community cohesion remains stronger than ever, thanks to the transformative impact of our growing network of supporters.

THE LIZ COOKE FELLOWSHIP IN HISTORY

This year, the Somerville community came together with extraordinary dedication to honour the life and legacy of Liz Cooke, former Secretary of the Somerville Association and an alumna whose impact on our community remains profound. Thanks to the remarkable generosity of over 400 supporters, we are thrilled to report that the History Fellowship fund established in Liz's name has met its goal, securing funding for a permanent History Fellowship at Somerville.

Our fundraising campaign was a multifaceted effort, involving both our Spring Mailing campaign and an active crowdfunding effort. Through the dedication of our supporters, we raised over £250,000 in total, with more than £50,000 generated through our Crowdfunding page. This extraordinary memorial to Liz would not have been possible without the generosity and commitment of our donors. We are grateful to everyone who helped bring this vision to life, and we thank you for ensuring that future generations of Somervillians will experience the same rigorous and enriching education that Liz valued so highly.

‘Sharp as a needle and kind as a saint’

CHRISTIAN CARRITT’S LIFE

This year our alumna Dr Christian Carritt (1927-2023) gifted the college with an overwhelmingly generous legacy. We look back on the life of a true Somervillian, before considering the momentous impact of her legacy.

Once described as being ‘sharp as a needle and kind as a saint’ by the Duchess of Devonshire, Christian Carritt (1946, Physiology) was a leading private London GP from the 1950s right into her eighties. She pushed against societal limitations for women doctors, and had an incredible knack of diagnosing early symptoms in a world before instant blood tests and MRI scans. Her patients, many of whom became her friends, included writers, critics, artists, actors and

intellectuals. From the glamorous to the young and vulnerable, everyone relied on her.

The daughter of a musicologist, Christian grew up playing the piano. In 1945, faced with the choice between pursuing music and medicine, she decided to take up a scholarship to read Natural Sciences at Somerville. Christian arrived at the University with her twin brother David, who was at Christ Church, and the two of them cut a dazzling path through 1940s Oxford. Christian loved Somerville, and spoke with admiration about influential Somervillians including her own Oxford GP, Dr Dorothea Maude, who had qualified in 1906 and set up five field hospitals for Serbian refugees during WW1, and Evelyn (later Baroness) Sharp, one of the first women to go into the Civil Service in the 1920s.

After graduating from Oxford, Christian went on to University College Hospital to become a doctor. Young female medical students faced constant bigotry and harassment at that time, an experience which made Christian determined to set up her own medical

practice in Onslow Square, aged just twenty-eight. Over the next fifteen years, she built up her practice. Whilst she made it look effortless, it was anything but, and behind her calm and charming façade, there was boundless energy and grit. Christian was also deeply committed to raising her son Luke, who was immeasurably dear to her.

Christian’s relationship with her brother David profoundly influenced her life, and his premature death in 1982 was a devastating blow. Both twins were able pianists, and the pianos acquired for College through her legacy are a testament to their bond. Somerville, Christian recalled, taught her ‘to learn and to live’ and this lifelong affection for her college can be felt even now, in the gift she has given Somerville.

‘To Learn and To Live’: Christian Carritt’s Legacy

To honour Dr Christian Carritt’s life and career, her legacy will be used at Somerville to enhance and secure the two great passions of her life: music and medicine.

In discussion with Christian's family and friends, Somerville College has agreed to employ her legacy to endow both our Music Fellowship and our most senior Medicine Fellowship. The legacy will furthermore support the creation of the Christian Carritt Graduate Scholarship in Medicine, enabling future doctors to follow Christian’s path. Finally, Christian’s gift will permanently enhance the musical life of the Somerville community through the purchase of three pianos, including a Steinway model-B for the Chapel.

The Christian Carritt Fellowship in Music

Somerville’s Music Fellowship is currently held by Professor Samantha Sebastian. Reacting to the announcement, Professor Sebastian said, ‘I am grateful to Christian Carritt for the far-sighted gift of securing Music teaching at Somerville. The UK’s music education sector faces significant challenges, especially at schools with the highest levels of deprivation. In this context, Christian’s legacy recognises how crucial it is for institutions like ours to champion the musicians, music scholars, and music teachers of the future.’

The Christian Carritt Fellowship and Graduate Scholarship in Medicine

The decision both to endow our most senior Medicine Fellowship and create a new graduate scholarship in Christian’s name reflect her long and illustrious career as a physician. Principal Jan Royall commented,

‘I am so proud that we have been able to honour Christian’s memory by strengthening our capacity in medicine at both the early and most senior levels of the profession.’

The Somerville Festival of Piano

To celebrate the rare good fortune of having our new Steinway model-B piano sharing the Chapel alongside its rented counterpart (now in the final year of its lease), Director of Chapel Music Will Dawes is curating a Somerville Festival of Piano, with further kind support from Helen Morton. As part of this festival, we were delighted to welcome Christian’s family to a performance of Schubert’s ‘Die Winterreise’. Before the performance, Christian’s son Luke did us the honour of unveiling the new piano, complete with its plaque dedicated to his mother.

THE GIFT OF WATER

At Somerville, we appreciate gifts and legacies of all shapes and sizes. This beautiful water feature was given to College in memory of our alumna Rosemary Hobsbaum (née Phillips, 1955, English) by her two daughters. Our gardeners have lovingly planted it with native flag iris and corkscrew rush, and it is already attracting new insect species to the gardens.

THE PENROSE SOCIETY

Legacy gifts have played a transformative role throughout the history of the College, and continue to do so.

The Penrose Society honours the special effort and commitment made by alumni and friends who have pledged a legacy or planned gift to Somerville.
