Welcome to Oxford, and to St Anne’s College. St Anne’s is not a typical Oxbridge college: it was formed as the Society for Home Students in 1879, to provide educational opportunities for women who would not otherwise be able to afford to come to Oxford. It became a full college in 1952, was one of the first Oxford colleges to go co-educational in 1979, and now has one of the largest and most diverse undergraduate intakes in Oxford. Famous alumnae include Edwina Currie, Penelope Lively and Helen Fielding, and the current Principal is Tim Gardam, formerly Director of Programmes at Channel 4. Orientation. The whole meeting is accommodated on site, though pressure of numbers has meant that the poster and lecture sessions are in different buildings. Talks are all in the Mary Ogilvie Lecture Theatre (Room C on the Map); Posters and the drinks reception are in Seminar Rooms 7 and 8 (lower ground floor of the new building, near O); breakfast (for those staying in college), lunches and the conference dinner are all in the dining room (Room B on the Map). On the first evening, the college bar (Room P) is open for refreshments; there is also a good selection of pubs and restaurants across the Woodstock Road, and towards Jericho and the city centre (for example, at the end of Plantation Road, and on Walton Street). Acknowledgements. Many thanks to all those who have helped out with the preparations for the meeting, in particular the Conference Office at St Anne’s and the administrative staff in Earth Sciences. Thanks also to the Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press and numerous organisations for ‘in kind’ support of the meeting; and thanks to all of you who have come (nearly 150 at last count!) to help make this meeting a success.
