Master’s Introduction In previous reports I have talked about the uncertainty created by the awarded Leverhulme Early Career Fellowships. Fred Parker won the University Pilkington prize for prospect of the substantial increase in tuition fees that British undergraduates teaching, the eleventh time a Clare Fellow has won such a prize in ten years, testimony to their pay to £9,000. Would it deter applicants to university? Would, in particular, it commitment to undergraduate teaching. deter students from less advantaged backgrounds? The students who have just arrived are the first to be paying the new fees. This year’s admissions These successes owe a huge amount to alumni support – for bursaries, for schools outreach, for round is the second under the system. student research internships, and for teaching. It used to be that the College relied on just two income streams – from fees and from the endowment. It now has four main, largely equal, income streams: I am pleased to report that, while the new fees have deterred applicants fees, endowment, alumni donations, and conference income. The income from conference and form applying to British universities overall, it has not deterred students catering topped £2 million in the past year. That increase owes a great deal to the alumni funding of applying to Cambridge and to Clare. The number of students applying to Cambridge this October Lerner Court and the Gillespie Centre. increased by 3.3%. The numbers applying to Clare increased by over 10%, and by 26% since 2010. With 938 applications, Clare has comfortably the highest number of applicants per place of any college That alumni support gives me confidence that the College can meet the challenges of the next few – and the second highest (after Trinity) in the absolute number of applicants. The increasing popularity years: sustaining undergraduate education in the face of powerful competing pressures for research of the College does not handicap students who apply. Because of the ‘pool’ system in admissions - and for cost-cutting; the need to support postgraduate research (a third of our students are graduate where students we would like to have but do not have places for - get passed on for consideration, students but the support for British graduate students in the Arts and Humanities has almost students applying to Clare have the same chance of getting in to Cambridge as they would have if they disappeared), and the imperative to refurbish Old Court. applied to a less popular college. This year, however, all these challenges and achievements were overshadowed by the tragic death of a Even more important, 70% of the home-based students admitted this year came from the state sector final-year student on the eve of the Easter Term. Rebecca Chamberlin was a very popular and talented (which was the target figure for 2020 in the College’s strategy.) That represents an increase by almost English student who had been President of the Christian Union, a member of the May Ball a third since 2007. This increase is not the result of any positive discrimination on behalf of state school Committee, and a cox for the First VIII. She was killed in a car crash on her way to a Boat Club students, but reflects the efforts of our admissions and schools liaison teams to attract the best students training camp. As I said to the finalists at their graduation dinner last June: from the state sector to apply to Clare. There is one student who should have been here tonight and isn’t: Rebecca Chamberlin – she That we are attracting top-flight students is confirmed, as in the past two years, by good academic would have been one of those I have just thanked results to report. Amongst finalists, the College topped the university league tables overall. That position Before I wrote to Rebecca’s father and mother immediately after she died, I read all her supervision was driven by the success of our Natural Scientists who came first in the University. It is a pleasure to reports right back to her first term. Four things came through i) the care with which she was being be able, for the first time, to report such positive achievements by our students in Natural Sciences. taught, ii) the pleasure which everybody got from teaching her, iii) the fact that she did not find it easy There is no room for complacency. Our results in the other years were not so impressive. It is a constant academically at first, but that iv) there was an almost Eureka moment in the first term of this, her final, battle for all colleges to secure high quality undergraduate teaching for our students when the pressures year when her supervisor expressed his delight that this term’s work was the best by far that she had on Fellows of the College to concentrate instead on research are so great. There can also be no let-up in ever done – that she had cracked it, as it were. When I talk about world-class undergraduate the outreach work to schools. It will not be easy to replicate the admissions figures for this year. There is, education – this is what I mean - the real difference that individual attention and the supervision however, no excuse for not getting excellent results from students of all backgrounds. Given the quality of system can bring to enable young men and women like Becky and yourselves to fulfil their potential. students we attract, we ought to be getting good academic results.

But it did bring We can continue to stress that our students are being taught by world-class scholars who are at the the best out of all you and I want you to treasure the memory of her and of everything you have cutting edge of research, The list of publications attest to that.
