Welcome... to the Latest Edition of Exeter Matters, the Termly Electronic Newsletter for Exonians THE TERMLY E-NEWSLETTER FOR EXONIANS HILARY TERM 2014 Welcome... to the latest edition of Exeter Matters, the termly electronic newsletter for Exonians. RECTOR’S NEWS Just as Hilary Term drew to a close came the news of the death of Professor Marilyn Butler, my predecessor as Rector. It filled me with sorrow. She was a transformative Rector, and not just because she was the first female head of any of the ancient colleges in Oxford or Cambridge. Her warmth and her scholarship left their stamp on the College which I inherited and has made my job easier and more pleasant. I owe her a great deal. There will be a memorial service in the College FRANCES CAIRNCROSS Chapel on Thursday 24 April at 3.30pm. All are most welcome. It has not been an easy term. Our students boycotted the Dining Hall for two weeks, distressed by the charge we make to defray a third of the costs of running the Hall. We have begun negotiating an alternative way to finance those costs, through a meal plan which we hope will seem a fairer solution to this vexed problem. We carry most of the costs through our vacation conference and summer-school business and through commercial dinners – but we would rather use our scarce cash to offer financial aid to our poorer students than to relieve the whole student body of the entire bill for overheads. It’s a tough balance. The most cheerful event of the term was undoubtedly the Men’s Football Cuppers PROF MARILYN BUTLER Final, played against St Catz, which I watched at the Iffley grounds on a sunny Sunday evening. We have some remarkably good footballers in College just now, including three members of the Blues team, one of them the Captain. In a nail-biting game, they reached half-time without scoring, one goal down. And it was a heart-stopping 20 minutes into the second half before they equalised – and only in the final three minutes that they scored the winning goal. It is the first time we have brought home the vast trophy since 1974. We’ll give them a High Table dinner on April 27th, and will welcome any Old Members who want to use their dining rights to join us that evening. We are almost ready to start knocking down the nastier parts of our Walton Street buildings. The building industry’s inflation forecasts shot up last autumn while we were working our way through the delays to our planning application, and we have CUPPERS GLORY had to work hard to hold costs in check and decide where to alter the design to reduce | 2 HILARYMICHAELMAS TERM TERM2014 2010 expense without sacrificing quality and style. With luck, we will be able to swing the sledgehammers just about the time we celebrate Founder’s Day at the start of April. Before that, I am heading for Asia: first, to a conference we have organised in Wuxi, birthplace of our most famous Chinese alumnus, the author Qian Zhongshu, and then to our party in Hong Kong. After Founder’s Day, and the weekend celebrations, we have our special Law Day, and then a visit from our Honorary Fellow the Queen of Spain at the start of term. We have another party planned in New York, and then at the QIAN ZHONGSHU end of June a fabulous Ball. Finally, through my last summer, I want to remember the members of College who lost their lives in the First World War. I plan to visit their graves and memorials, mainly in Flanders and northern France, in the first fortnight of September, to leave an assurance that the College has not forgotten them. There will be details on the College web site in the next few weeks. We will need volunteers to visit some of the more far-flung graves (see the College’s Roll of Honour on the web site), and we hope to raise the money for a plaque in the Chapel to commemorate College staff who died in the war, and the three Exonians whose names are not recorded in our beautiful First World War memorial.

The 1947 legislation has served us well. It has undergirded our diplomatic efforts, provided the basis to establish our military capa- bilities, and focused our intelligence assets. But the world has changed dramatically in the last fifty years, and particularly in the last decade. Institutions designed in another age may or may not be appropriate for the future. It is the mandate of the United States Commission on National Security/21st Century to examine precise- ly that question. It has undertaken to do so in three phases: the first to describe the world emerging in the first quarter of the next century, the second to design a national security strategy appropri- ate to that world, and the third to propose necessary changes to the national security structure in order to implement that strategy effectively.

  • Exeter Excelling a Celebration of Success Message from the Rector Professor Sir Rick Trainor
    EXETER EXCELLING A CELEBRATION OF SUCCESS MESSAGE FROM THE RECTOR PROFESSOR SIR RICK TRAINOR leap forwards in securing xeter’s future It is with great honour and pleasure that I can announce, with gratitude to the whole Exeter community, that we have exceeded our goal of raising £45 million over the last 10 years. The Exeter Excelling campaign was launched in 2006 and, over the period leading up to our 700th anniversary in 2014 – and a little beyond – we have received support on a scale that has never before been achieved by an Oxford college. With over 4,000 alumni making a gift in this period, and support also from parents, friends, Fellows, staff and even current students, we have leapt forwards in securing Exeter’s future as it enters its eighth century. Your support has created an entirely new quadrangle for this and future generations of Exonians – the biggest single expansion of the College since its earliest years. In addition you have secured tutorial teaching and made study at Oxford an affordable option for the brightest young minds in the UK and around the world. Thank you for what you’ve done as a member of this family: for your friendship, your support, your guidance, and most of all for your passion in seeing Exeter excel. In celebrating these achievements, I know you will join with me in giving substantial credit and heartfelt thanks to Rector Frances Cairncross whose vision and leadership brought this Campaign, and indeed Cohen Quad, into existence. I have very much inherited the success that her endeavours, for which we are all grateful, have brought about.

  • College History.Pdf
    Exeter College OXFORD Exeter College, Oxford xeter College takes its name not from a man but from a diocese. Its founder, Walter de E Stapeldon, bishop of Exeter, was born about 1266, probably at the hamlet which still bears his name, near Holsworthy, in the remote country of north-west Devon. His family, moderately well-to-do farmers, too grand for peasants and too humble for gentry, had long been prominent in the social life of their locality, but they carried no weight in the county and had probably never been beyond its boundaries. From these unprivileged origins Walter de Stapeldon rose to become not only a bishop but also the treasurer of England, the confidant of King Edward II and eventually the victim of Edward’s enemies. The obscurity of Exeter College his family circumstances makes it impossible to trace the early stages in this adventurous career. We know seen from Turl only that he was an Oxford graduate, rector of Aveton Giffard in South Devon during the 1290s, canon of Street Exeter Cathedral by 1301 and precentor of the Cathedral by 1305. After his election as bishop in 1308 he made rapid progress in the king’s service as a diplomat, archivist and financial expert; and it was his position near the centre of power in a particularly oppressive government which cost him his life in 1326, when Edward II lost his throne and Stapeldon his head. When in 1314 he established Stapeldon Hall, as the College was first known, the bishop’s motives were doubtless mixed: piety, the safety of his soul, and the education of the prospective clergy of his diocese were probably his chief concerns.

The proliferation of such studies has made. it ever more difficult to retain a sense of the particularity of the Enlightenment and a grasp of its synergy. The situation has been long in the making and is associated with the success of the International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies and of the Studies on Voltaire and the Eighteenth-Century. Some time ago John Lough in an illuminating article made a plea for a return to an older 'history of thought' pattern of study. For all its attractions that would hardly solve the problem of defining Enlightenment and locating it within eighteenth-century culture and society.
