  • Breakfast Programme
    The Celebration of the Wedding of HRH Prince William of Wales & Miss Catherine Middleton Site Map 2 About the Event Today, two of St Andrews’ most famous recent graduates are due to be married in Westminster Abbey in London with the eyes of the world upon them. As the town in which they met and their relationship blossomed, we are delighted to be able to welcome you to our celebrations in honour of the Royal Couple, HRH Prince William of Wales and Miss Catherine Middleton. A variety of entertainment and activities await, building up towards the big moment at around 10:45am where the Royal Couple will be making their entrance into the Abbey for the ceremony itself (due to start at 11am). This will be shown live on the large outdoor screen situated in the main Quadrangle. The “Wedding Breakfast” will be served from 8am on the lower lawn from the marquee with a selection of hot and cold food/drink available. Food will also be on sale throughout the day from local vendors. After the ceremony, and the traditional ‘appearance at the balcony’ the entertainment on the main stage will pick up again, taking the party on to 4pm. The main purpose of the day, aside from having fun, is to raise money for the Royal Wedding Charitable Fund. The list of charities we will be collecting for appears later in the programme. Most of what you see today is provided for free, but we would encourage you to please give generously. The organising committee hope you enjoy this momentous occasion and we are sure you will join with us in extending our warmest wishes and heartfelt congratulations to “Wills & Kate” as they look forward to a long and happy life together.

  • William Oughter Lonie - St Andrews Educational Reformer
    William Oughter Lonie - St Andrews educational reformer Edmund F. Robertson Mathematical Institute, University of St Andrews, North Haugh, St Andrews, KY16 9SS, Scotland William Oughter Lonie (1822-1894) was appointed Mathematics Headmaster at Madras College, St Andrews, Scotland in 1846. Thomas Brown was a pupil at the school at the time and remembered the day of his appointment (see [7]): When the Rev William Martin was promoted from the Mathematical Mastership of the Madras College to the Chair of Moral Philosophy at Aberdeen, Mr Lonie was appointed to fill the vacancy. I remember sitting one day in the Latin class, when Provost Playfair entered in company with a young man whom he introduced to Dr Woodford, and the whisper circled round the class that this was the new Mathematical Master. It was not long before he made his mark. His methods were not stereotyped or formal. He did not insist on the dry and rigid demonstrations of Euclid. He dealt with mathematics not as an exercise of memory but as an effort of intelligence and reason. In this paper we shall look in $1 at Andrew Bell, the founder of Madras College, in $2 at the Madras College, in $3 at W. O. Lonie's career, in $4 at his teaching methods and philosophy, in $5 at the work of James Walker, one of his pupils, and finally details of the later part of Lonie's life and career in $6. 1. Andrew Bell, the founder of Madras College. Andrew Bell was born in St Andrews on 27 March 1753.
