In Memoriam

Ian Law, left 1974

Ian joined Trinity on a scholarship in 1966. A proud member of the U12 rugby XV, Ian later became a supporter of the Modern Arts Club and appeared in the longest running house play ever.

Ian gained a PhD in sociology in 1985, beginning a deep, lifelong commitment to racial justice.

There are many areas where Ian’s work has been influential in shaping policy responses to issues of racism and ethnic diversity across many fields of public policy, including hate crime, mental health, community care, housing, and social security.

Ian is survived by his wife Jude, his sons Alex and Seb, and by his sister, Anita, and brother, Kim.
