COVER STORY: Eight ways to mark the 800th
In 2009, the University of Cambridge will celebrate its 800th anniversary. A wide variety of events are planned, many of them designed to thank staff and students (past and present) for their contribution towards making the University what it is today. Here, we share eight suggestions for how staff can get involved.
The University Counselling Service isn't just for students. Staff are also eligible to take part in groups and workshops, as well as schedule confidential one-to-one sessions.
Several nights a term, Wolfson College has a funny turn. The College's Wolfson Howler nights have attracted some of the nation's biggest names in stand-up comedy and are giving Cambridge performers a new venue to test their mettle.
Fitzwilliam Museum's Head of Public Engagement, Margaret Greeves, highlights a world-class collection on our doorstep.
From early in the morning till late at night, you will find a cluster of people standing on the corner of Bene't Street and Trumpington Street transfixed by the latest Cambridge landmark - the Corpus Clock.
