ALUMNI ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER 2016 P RESI D ENT ’S F OREWOR D My Presidential predecessors in their forewords to the Newsletter have written eloquently on the considerable changes to the College and in student life and activities since they were up. I can only echo their words. This past year has seen the completion and opening of the now world -acclaimed Heong Art Gallery and of Battcock Lodge centred on First Court. Both will add materially and culturally to the life of the College and its members. More will be said on these elsewhere. Keith Guthrie, the then Master, told us, the freshmen of 1965, that we were now and would forever after be members of the College, either in residence or no longer in residence. It is this concept that the Alumni Association promotes. The Alumni Association is there to foster and maintain the links between alumni and with the College. I have been privileged to have been asked to coach Downing crews every year since 1970. I think I can say that I have had a more continuous association with the College’s student activities and life than most, if not all, of the College’s current Governing Body! Those I coached mainly left academia and entered into varied careers in the wider world. This causes me to speculate on what happens to alumni when they graduate. Was their degree of great significance in what they have achieved? Did they or were they encouraged to take advantage of and benefit from the College’s varied extra-curricular activities so that they have had a more fulfilled life? What do they think now of their time at Downing for good or ill? In essence do they still feel they are members of the College? The College needs the continuing loyalty of old members. “As the current level of education funding is inadequate, all development depends, in effect, on the recognition by former students of the value of their own College experience, the importance of research and their willingness to ensure that future students can benefit from the same level of individual supervision and pastoral care” (The Governing Body’s Report 2014/15). The successful conclusion of the Catalysis campaign shows that value has been recognised in that manner by many alumni. I understand that of the 9,000 alumni now alive some 36% have given to the College at some point. This is really an excellent result and those involved, particularly the past and present Masters, the Bursar and Gabrielle Bennett and her team, are to be warmly congratulated. It is important to recognise that those now being admitted to the College should be encouraged to feel the same loyalty to the institution and to have the potential to contribute in the future. The involvement of the Alumni Association through its Alumni Student Fund and other support to current activities is one way in which the current students can be made to feel part of 6 ALUMNI ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER 2016 a wider community spanning all alumni. Naturally those teaching and having care of their charges have a similar responsibility. In answer in part to the questions I raised above, the Year Representatives’ reports show the wide variety of achievements, activities and personal experiences of alumni. I am sure they are read with interest and possibly amusement by contemporaries. We are grateful to them for providing such good copy! The Association’s Merchandising Committee led by Kate Dyer works extremely hard in selecting, ordering and selling bespoke items with the profits going to the Alumni Student Fund. Frank Weiss has been a mainstay of this operation for many years and it is a fitting recognition of his great contribution that the Executive Committee are to propose that he be elected a Vice-President of the Association at the AGM. The Fund provides valuable and targeted assistance to individual students to further their studies and lives at Downing. The Association and its committees is superbly administered by its ever efficient and patient Secretary Barrie Hunt (also Editor of this Newsletter). Norman Berger looks after the finances of the Association with prudence and great care. I am delighted that my predecessor Karen Storey has allowed herself to be co-opted to the Executive Committee to continue in the variety of roles that she has undertaken with the merchandising in the past. I am very grateful to all of those mentioned above and to all my fellow Executive Committee members for their dedication and support over the year. It has been most rewarding and really enjoyable. On a personal note, I was extremely honoured and humbled by the most generous gesture of the Segreants, current members of the DCBC and others to have had a rowing eight named “Leo Judd” which was “given” to me at my 70th Celebration Dinner in Hall last September.

  • Catalysishub NEWSLETTER
    CatalysisHub NEWSLETTER The UK Catalysis Hub has created a thriving and successful network of catalytic scientists who are developing and promoting catalytic science in the UK. The Hub has succeeded in coordinating the community and is contributing to the development of new approaches and techniques in the field. It has provided substantial added value and is now recognised widely both in the UK and internationally. It will provide an excellent base for the future development of this crucial area of science in the UK. “The Hub has demonstrated resilience in the current pandemic with the community coming together to support each other through webinars and training courses and we will continue these in more normal times. Our proposal round was very successful with a large number of high quality proposals submitted and we have funded an excellent portfolio of research. The next few months will hopefully see an easing of the lockdown and an increase in our ability to do research. We hope that all are keeping well and safe and we look forward to meeting in person when we can and discussing catalytic research face to face.” ~ Professor Christopher Hardacre, Director Events Highlights of 2020 online via our website, so they will be a future resource for the whole catalysis community. COVID-19 has had a major impact on scientific network and dissemination due to travel UKCC 2020, 7 - 9 January 2020 restrictions and social distancing making face to face meetings and conferences unfeasible.
