Meeting Minds: Five @ Fifty: looking to the future
In 1974, Brasenose, Hertford, Jesus, St Catherine’s, and Wadham became the first five traditionally male colleges to admit female students. As part of the Meeting Minds celebration, the five Colleges will come together to mark this milestone.
In this panel discussion, alumni from the colleges, along with Vice Chancellor Professor Irene Tracey, come together to celebrate what has been achieved over the last 50 years, and consider the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
