Within the next week, the college council had met and, in coordination with the university, taken steps to close the college for the first time in modern times. Students were instructed to go home unless this was impossible; normal teaching was abandoned; the May Ball was cancelled; High Table was suspended. On Monday 23 March, the prime minister announced the strict rules to slow the spread of COVID-19 that came to be known as ‘lockdown’. This issue of the Magazine covers the 2019–20 academic year both before and after lockdown. Reports by the Master, Acting Senior Tutor, Bursar and others in The Year in Review all summarise the impact and experience of the pandemic, while not forgetting the normal challenges and accomplishments of an academic year. The reports by current members in Clubs and Societies move from the energetic activities of Michaelmas and Lent terms to the suspended animation of Easter term. Several articles address the pandemic experience itself: the college archivist Amanda Goode gives an account of Emmanuel’s experiences of plague in the seventeenth century; Tobias Wauer, a former Research Fellow and current Bye-Fellow, describes his work at the national testing centre in Milton Keynes; and Alex Archibald, Fellow and university lecturer in atmospheric chemistry, discusses his research on air quality in Cambridge during and after the lockdown. Several featured photographs illustrate the college in lockdown. On the Magazine cover, the 2020 undergraduate matriculation photo arrays students in their socially-distanced households on Front Court. The inside front cover shows the marquee erected on the Paddock in September 2020 to facilitate social interaction in the semi-outdoors: the flaps are usually open. On the back cover is the swimming pool, never opened and never cleaned in 2020. By contrast and in a nod to the future, the inside back cover shows the land adjacent to South Court and ready for development, as discussed by the Master and the Development Director in their reviews of the year. VIII EMMANUEL COLLEGE MAGAZINE 2019–2020 However, the pandemic was not the only distinctive feature of the year. As the Acting Senior Tutor points out in his report, the college’s continuing ambition to enhance its diversity and to provide ‘a supportive and inclusive environment for students from every background’ was punctuated by the vibrant Black Lives Matter movement after the death of George Floyd in Minnesota in May. At Cambridge, the goal of shaping a diverse future has been matched by an initiative to face relevant aspects of the past. Early in 2019 the Vice-Chancellor instituted an advisory group on legacies of enslavement, which is exploring the university’s historical links with the slave trade and advising him on future actions in light of those links. Initial surveys of the Emmanuel archives suggest that the college depended little on slave-owning benefactors. However, David Hughes (1967), on investigating the history of the chapel organ, discloses a notable donation from a slave-owning fortune. Future numbers of the Magazine will continue the account of the history of exclusion and inclusion at the college. A different aspect of diversity is represented by gender. Last year’s Magazine brought to attention in several ways the fortieth anniversary of the arrival of women at Emmanuel in the late 1970s. 2019–20 was the fortieth anniversary of the year in which women first matriculated as undergraduates. We are taking advantage of the rehang of portraits in the Hall, discussed by the Master and the archivist in their reports and illustrated on pages 294 and 295, to use some of the portraits of women benefactors to illustrate the section divisions in this year’s issue. As noted elsewhere, several of the portraits were loaned by a college member and descendant of the founder, to whom much gratitude is owed. These portraits are indicated by ‘*’ below. The section division images are as follows: The Year in Review Mary, countess of Westmorland (1608–69), wife of Mildmay Fane, the founder’s great-grandson Views Mary Mildmay*, countess of Westmorland (1581/2–1640), the founder’s granddaughter, 1627 News Rachel Fane*, countess of Bath (1613–80), the founder’s great-granddaughter, benefactor Clubs and Societies Mary Mildmay*, dowager countess of Westmorland (1581/2–1640), the founder’s granddaughter, c.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Sir David Attenborough
    Sir David Attenborough David Attenborough is a wildlife film-maker and naturalist (a scientist who studies animals and their behaviour). He has been making television programmes for over 60 years and is considered by many to be a national treasure. Early Life David Frederick Attenborough was born in London on 8th May 1926. Growing up, he lived with his parents (Mary and Frederick) and his two brothers (Richard and John) on the campus of University College, Leicester, as his father was a principal there. In 1939, the Attenborough family fostered two German-Jewish girls called Irene and Helga, who became like sisters to David. As a child, David loved science and nature: he collected fossils, rocks, and other specimens, such as bird eggs. After finishing school, he went to Cambridge University to study natural sciences. Once he graduated, he was called to do two years’ service in the Royal Navy. He spent those two years in North Wales. Television In 1952, David joined the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) full time as a producer. In 1954, he began working on a series called ‘Zoo Quest’. This was filmed in many interesting places and showed animals in their natural environment. Something that hadn’t been done much before. The show was incredibly popular. David left the BBC in 1972 so he could write and produce his own shows. In 1979 he started a series called ‘Life on Earth’ which became popular. He continued to add to his ‘Life Collection’ for over 30 years, with each series focusing on a different plant or animal group.
