Hi all,

The term is over and I hope you're all looking forward to a relaxing vacation/six weeks of revision for exams 🤢.

Last week we held committee elections at our Annual General Meeting, and I'm delighted to announce that Edward Hart (Corpus) will succeed me as president whilst Joe Gardiner (Oriel) was elected as secretary and Ben Slater (Catz 🙂) was elected as treasurer.

Joe, Edward, and Ben

As such, my two years on the committee are now over. I'd like to thank Matthew Burke, Christopher Mullender, and William Seymour for serving on two committees with me, and I very much look forward to seeing what Edward does as president over the next year. Whilst secretary, Edward did a particularly fantastic job at organising the 40th anniversary dinner at the end of Hilary. Fifty people attended, including members from the founding president of the society to the new committee. It was a pleasure to meet so many past members, learn about the history of the society, and embarrass myself with the discovery that we'd actually hosted the dinner on the society's 39th anniversary. Looks like I'm still making off-by-one errors, three years into this degree!

Over and out,
