Law, Medicine, Science, Philosophy, Economics, Politics, Debating Opportunities

On Tuesday 13th September, Professor Robert Stevens will be talking about Law as a degree in L21 from the very start of lunchtime.  Professor Stevens is the Herbert Smith Freehills Professor of English Private Law at Oxford University. Previously he was a Professor in commercial law at UCL , a lecturer in law at the University of Oxford and a Fellow and Tutor in Law at Lady Margaret Hall where he taught from 1994 to 2007.  He has taught and lectured widely both within the Commonwealth (Australia and Canada) and Continental Europe (Germany, the Netherlands, Spain).
On Thursday 15th September, Will Gildea will be talking about doing PPE at university in L21 from the very start of lunch.  Please come if you are interested in Politics, Philosophy or Economics.  

If you are interested in Law, you should also sign up for the High Sherriffs Law Lecture on Tuesday 11th October from 3pm at the examination schools. Mr Justice Baker will be talking on ‘A Matter of Life and Death’ – a topic which may well be of interest to aspirant medics as well as aspirant lawyers. 


On Tuesday 7th February we are going to be joined by Professor Robert Winston and an amazing range of other speakers in areas from the science of growing plants on Mars to ancient and modern views of cancer from the Head of Oncology at Oxford University, for the Festival of Ancient and Modern Science.  We will be recruiting volunteers to help our visitors with their stalls in the next few days – please sign up if you would like to take part in this wonderful opportunity.  

Senior Debating starts this Thursday from 3pm in L14 - all Year Twelves and Thirteens welcome.
