The Master’s Introduction

I was warmly welcomed to Pembroke at the beginning of the Summer of 2013. The weather was glorious and the College looked its best with overflowing window-boxes and gleaming limestone. I have arrived at Pembroke at a remarkable moment in its history with the College having realised a major ambition of creating a new quad with wonderful buildings and facilities. The new building complex gives every visitor and newcomer powerful evidence of the generosity of the College’s alumni. The elegant bridge over the old City walls and Brewer Street has already won awards, and symbolises beautifully the ‘bridging of centuries’, combining a respect for our tradition with a forward-looking academic and entrepreneurial vision, which

heralds a greater public and intellectual visibility for the College. The complex stands as a lasting and living tribute to the period of dedicated stewardship of my predecessor Giles Henderson and his wife Lynne.

Our solid financial position is remarkably untouched by this major project, and the enhanced facilities promise to attract new conference business. Our donation income was boosted by the final push to get the Bridging Centuries Campaign completed in time for the inauguration of the new buildings, as well as an extraordinarily generous legacy from Peter Farthing (1968). The names of all our donors during the last academic year are, as usual, recorded at the end of this year’s report

The new buildings are transforming the quality of life in College. Our academics are eager to use the state of the art facilities for sharing research and scholarship in workshops and conferences with colleagues in their own and other disciplines, enhancing the College’s academic vibrancy and its overall reputation. The inaugural Mahfouz Forum, which we are delighted to confirm as an annual fixture, and the Islamic Heritage Colloquium – both held in September - serve as two highly successful examples of what is now possible.

But you would not expect your College to rest on these laurels. A one-day conference with some of our most solid supporters and a number of Fellows showed there is a strong consensus on what areas need the most attention going forward and why we need more capital in the future. It was deeply pleasing that the College climbed well back up the Norrington Table with some excellent finals results but our ambition now is to ensure we retain and enhance that success in programmes for each discipline and across disciplines. We also wish to give more support to graduate programmes and doctoral work, being mindful that these students are likely to enter their post-graduate years with a significant debt burden. Our doctoral students and post-docs give our community further energy and cohesion, and we want to make Pembroke a college of choice for research and academic progression.

The development and growth of the range of our access activities is something we are very proud of. We are working hard at our access initiatives with ‘Pembroke North West’ being rolled out during the year, in addition to our London activities, with some palpable gains in terms of real recruitment here in Oxford. The enthusiastic involvement of Pembroke students in these initiatives is welcome and indicative of their social commitment. We are delighted that the Pembroke scheme is gaining national recognition for its distinctive access work.

I have now met a number of alumni at Gaudy events and the extremely well attended London Reception, and have been delighted to meet a number of our most generous benefactors. It was a particular pleasure to welcome freshers and their proud parents when they arrived at the beginning of Michaelmas Term and my interactions with students at all levels has reinforced for me what an extraordinarily talented and precious group of individuals we have in our community.

I hope that I have conveyed a little of my excitement about Pembroke and the next stages of our development. The College is well placed to continue moving forward on all fronts, building on the momentum and enthusiasm created across our whole community – students, Fellows, staff, alumni and wider group of friends and donors. I look forward to playing my part in helping to realise Pembroke’s great potential and ambitions. Dame Lynne Brindley, December 2013

A Landmark Year for Academic ActivityThe 2012 /13 Academic Year

Pembroke bounced back up the Norrington Table to a very creditable 13th place with 31 Firsts this year. The College is fortunate to attract some immensely talented students and it is wonderful to see them achieving so

highly. Sitting above the median is much more comfortable but the year-to-year fl uctuations again highlight the fi ckle nature of a ranking system based on Finals results as a reliable indicator of our academic well-being.

Examination results for graduates are not compiled in any form of league table (at the moment), and are also not classifi ed. Thus, taught Masters courses are graded as Pass or Distinction and Doctorates as Pass, albeit with subtle variation on the number of corrections that might be required. Nevertheless, it is very encouraging to report that Pembroke graduates were awarded 20 Distinctions in taught Masters courses and 11 DPhils were successfully completed. It is clear that the Graduate community is very vibrant and successful within the College. The major ingredient lacking is suffi cient funding to provide enough scholarships and accommodation. This remains a high priority for fundraising and development within the College and across the University as a whole.

Access activities have continued apace with the opening of the North West Science Centre at South Cheshire College of Further Education (with Corpus Christi College), the launch of the Theology and Religious Studies Centre at Ashton Sixth Form College in Manchester (with Durham, Manchester, Lancaster and Cambridge Universities), and most recently the launch of the London Centre for Languages and Cultures at William Morris Sixth Form in Hammersmith (with the Open University) funded by a grant from the London Schools Excellence Fund. The original hub school of BSix in Hackney is going from strength to strength, and the East End Classics Centre (with Wadham College, Birkbeck and UCL) established last year has also received funding from the London Schools Excellence Fund to signifi cantly expand its activities across neighbouring boroughs. Perhaps the most critical part of the Widening Participation programme is whether it makes a

difference to the students, staff, schools and communities where hub schools are based. The statistics here are incredibly impressive – in the 2012 Admissions round, of the 23 students that took the Enlightenment Course run by Peter Claus, nine applied to Oxford or Cambridge, seven were invited for interview, and fi ve were offered places at Oxford. We are not aware of any other outreach activity that has the same impact. In addition, the scheme may start to have an impact on educational policy and has been picked up by Les Ebdon, Head of the Offi ce for Fair Access, as an example of best practice, and was presented to Michael Gove as part of a briefi ng in November.

The transition between school and university, particularly an Oxford-style education, is becoming more challenging. In recognition of this, some of the science departments have been running Bridging Schemes in the week before Michaelmas Term to provide a better introduction to university life and the teaching methods used in Oxford. Pembroke was pleased to host about half of the participants this year as part of our commitment to supporting talented students who may be less familiar with Oxford and its traditions. Feedback suggests the residential scheme was very successful. Of possible greater long term importance was a pilot online Maths course run in parallel, which was taken by over 400 students. This suggests there may be a wonderful opportunity for Oxford to incorporate the benefi ts of a distributed learning environment as part of its outreach and bridging work that would then feed into the rigorous and intensive tutorial model, combining the best of technological innovation and traditional teaching.

2012-2013 was a landmark year for the academic activity within Pembroke as the new buildings provided a high-

capacity auditorium, seminar rooms and café to facilitate lectures and discussions. For the first time the prestigious Fulbright lecture, given by Harold Varmus, head of NIH Cancer Research and Nobel Laureate, and the Blackstone lecture, given by The Right Honourable The Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers KG, the recently retired President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom were held in Pembroke. Over the course of the year, there have been other conferences and talks, covering topics as diverse as Electron Backscatter Diffraction to Teaching and Research in Intellectual Property, with unanimous praise for the quality of the facilities.

From the College perspective, donations made during the year made it possible to fund the two most significant events. One was the inaugural Mahfouz Forum designed to foster blue-skies interdisciplinary research through a generous donation from our benefactor and Foundation Fellow, HE Mahfouz Marei Mubarak bin Mahfouz. The Forum brought together the robotics expertise of Ingmar Posner, Fellow in Engineering, with the biological expertise in vision from Hannah Smithson, Fellow in Psychology, and animal cognition from Alex Kacelnik, Fellow in Biological Sciences.

The second was a Colloquium organised by Pembroke Fellows, Christopher Melchert, Nicolai Sinai and Elisabeth Kendall, with generous funding from Brian Wilson (1948), entitled Claiming Tradition: Modern Re-reading of the Classical Islamic Heritage. Both events were a great success and the objective over the next few years is to build up a portfolio of such conferences and workshops across a range of

disciplines, ideally to involve the undergraduate, graduate and research community within the College. It is hoped that the larger events may have a distinguished international plenary lecturer and would be open to alumni as well.

These different activities are not happening in isolation. Part of the work over the last year has been to gather feedback from students in all disciplines, and from all the different subject tutors, to develop a more integrated academic community. The overall package which we now want to offer, termed Tutorials+ by Professor Stephen Whitefield, Fellow in Politics, will draw together the different strands of outreach, undergraduates, graduates and research to create a vibrant exchange of academic ideas, foster innovative interdisciplinary research and increase the profile of the College as an academic institution.

There are over forty different elements in the Tutorials+ plan with slightly different emphasis for each subject, that range from book grants for the Historians, vacation research grants for the scientists, Graduate scholarships, particularly in the Humanities, Career Development Fellowships, and the research seminars, workshops and conferences described above.

The next decade promises to be an exciting time as we use the new facilities to develop the inherently interdisciplinary nature of an Oxford College in an entrepreneurial academic manner.

Pembroke Fellows and ResearchThe 2012 /13 Academic Year

Raphael HauserFellow in Applied Mathematics

In 2012/13 I produced several new journal publications in my research area of convex optimisa-tion and applications in biology and finance. I was invited to visit the Universidade do Porto, and the

Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge, and gave conference and seminar presentations on the application of duality theory in risk management, on polynomial optimisation in the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees, on robust optimisation in asset manage-ment, and on novel aspects of first passage percolation theory.

In November, I secured £71k to hire a one-year postdoctoral researcher on the project Image Recovery in Flat-Screen X-Ray Systems, a project in collaboration with a start-up company based in Oxfordshire. This follows on from my

EPSRC-funded project, Structured Sparsity in Optimisation and Machine Learning, with the aim of transferring the results to the medical imaging industry.

Throughout the academic year, I have been supervising four doctoral students, seven MSc theses, and two undergraduate theses on topics ranging from Optimal Sequence Alignment to Risk Management, Finance, Logistics, Numerical Linear Algebra, Industrial Design, and Flight Path Optimisation in geophysical exploration.

Amongst the numerous service activities, I was acting as Part B Examiner at the Oxford Mathematical Institute, as External Examiner on the Undergraduate Courses in Mathematics at Brunel University, and as a member of the Organising Committee of the International Symposium on Combinatorial Optimisation 2012 at the Said Business School in Oxford.

The ability to experience pain is old and shared across species. It confers an evolutionary advantage and provides a warning of harm or impending threat. This highly adaptive ‘acute pain’ can unfortunately become maladaptive and chronic that as a consequence brings tremendous suffering. Chronic pain is one of the largest medical health problems in the developed world affecting 1 in 5 adults and costing society hundreds of millions of pounds per annum in care, treatment and days lost from work. Treatment is poor and many sufferers are left with unmanaged pain that significantly reduces their quality of life.

Until recently it has been difficult to obtain reliable objective information regarding the neural underpinnings of this private and subjective pain experience. This is needed as over-reliance on the verbal report and description of pain makes diagnoses and determination of treatment efficacy challenging. With the advent of functional neuroimaging methods – techniques that allow us to ‘watch’ the brain in action as well as work out its wiring, structure and neurochemistry in the alive human – this has been made feasible. My research group has pioneered the use of such brain imaging tools to identify what brain regions become active during painful experiences and how activity

relates to an individual’s specific pain experience or measure of pain relief, bringing potential diagnostic value as well as a better neuroscientific understanding of pain perception. As such, we now have a better appreciation of how anxiety, depression, cognition, and brain “amplification” mechanisms alter the pain experience at a neuroanatomical level. We have identified key changes involved in the transition from the acute to chronic pain state.

More recently, we have been using imaging to understand how anaesthetic agents produce altered states of consciousness in the operating room – knowing what happens in your brain at the precise time point when you become unaware of what is going on around you and cannot feel the surgeon’s knife going in has been the holy grail for anaesthesia. This is because it would provide the long sought-after individualised ‘biomarker’ that helps get the anaesthetic dose just right – not too much so you’re over-anaesthetised and not too little so you hear the surgeons talking and feel pain! We have identified a potential brain measure that could be the marker needed and published the results this year with considerable media attention. We have patented the findings and are hoping to translate this to the clinic and as a medical device.

Oxford Martin Programme on Human Rights for Future Generations Based at Pembroke College and funded by the Oxford Martin School, the Oxford Martin Programme on Human Rights for Future Generations (HRFG) is an interdisciplinary research programme hosted by the Law Faculty that aims to contribute to academic and policy thinking on the human rights dimensions of poverty, armed confl ict and environmental change. Drawing on the disciplines of law, philosophy, and international relations, the programme investigates the existing normative, legal and institutional human rights framework to face these challenges. This project aims to advance a new framework built on ethical, legal, and political dimensions that will help translate theory into real legal and policy solutions on these issues. HRFG hosts regular events, including a guest speaker series, where prominent academics, practitioners, and commentators are invited to deliver guest lectures that engage human rights topics using lenses that are innovative and stimulating. The directors of the programme are Professor Sandra Fredman (Pembroke Fellow in Law and Rhodes Professor of the Laws of British Commonwealth and US), Professor Simon Caney, and Dapo Akande.

More can be read about the work of HRFG, including news and events, at www.humanrights.ox.ac.uk

The Oxford Programme on the Changing Character of War (CCW), directed by Dr Robert Johnson, and managed by a Programme Steering Committee, chaired by Professor Sir Hew Strachan, is devoted to the interdisciplinary study of war and armed confl ict. It seeks to conduct research on a range of issues pertaining to the history and conduct of war in the modern period.

One of the most signifi cant changes for the Programme during the past academic year, was the move to Pembroke. The need for a College home was identifi ed some time ago, and the collaboration with Pembroke is proving fruitful and benefi cial. During its fi rst year here, the Programme’s focus has been on the development of its work in both the academic and the professional spheres. Support has been offered to Visiting Research Fellows, postgraduate researchers, various branches of the British Armed Forces, the Bundeswehr, and various professional military education institutions. In addition, we were delighted to welcome as Visiting Fellow, Major General James Cowan (1983), an alumnus of the College.

Focus On Pembroke-Based Research

Also under the directorship of Professor Fredman is the Oxford Human Rights Hub (OxHRH), which is based in the Law Faculty at the Manor Road site and seeks to bring together academics, practitioners and policy-makers from across the globe to advance the understanding and protection of human rights and equality. Meghan Campbell (2011, DPhil Law and President of the MCR) is working closely with the OxHRH and explains:

“We have brought together leading human rights academics, judges, practitioners, UN Special Rapporteurs, and activists to share their experiences and ideas. These events have sparked lively debates and have fostered greater connections between academics and practitioners. We have also broken new ground in the Oxford Law Faculty by establishing a strong online presence, www.ohrh.law.ox.ac.uk, which gives us a platform to showcase human rights activities in the Faculty. In July we launched the OxHRH blog in parallel with the website. It has been a stunning success, gaining a total readership of over 65,000 since its launch.”

CCW’s regular seminar programmes continue to attract wide interest within the University community. The topics, ranging from social media at war to nuclear confrontation, refl ect both the continuities and changes in modern war. In addition to these, CCW was able to stage two major international conferences in 2012–13, Transitions in Global Context (funded by the Ministry of Defence) and Frontline: Combat and Cohesion (funded by ESRC) thanks to the generosity of the donors and the hard work of our respective partners Dr Tim Clack and Professor Anthony King. Publication of the proceedings of both conferences is forthcoming. There have also been an unprecedented number of smaller workshops and study days as well as a successful series of screenings of war fi lms in the beautiful Pichette Auditorium, open to all .

All of this indicates a healthy and vibrant programme, while the frequency and variety of confl icts and operations in the last year or so continues to underscore the importance of the study of war, strategy and the state, and all the themes which derive from them.

23rd April 2013

On 23rd April 2013 Pembroke’s new buildings and quadrangles were officially opened by HRH The Duke of Kent KG. The Duke and his staff were among the honoured guests, including Lord Patten, Chancellor of Oxford University, Professor Andrew Hamilton, Vice Chancellor of Oxford University, Mohammed Abassi, Lord Mayor of Oxford, and some of our most substantial donors, who joined Fellows, friends and staff to celebrate a truly momentous day in Pembroke’s history.

After a private reception in the Master’s Lodgings, the Duke – accompanied by the Master, Giles Henderson, and Dr Lynne Henderson – processed through the College, crossing the new bridge to the sounds of the Ducal Fanfare composed by Tarik O’Regan (1996), and then on through the Rokos Quad into The Pichette Auditorium, where guests were assembled. The Master spoke with evident delight and passion, describing how “The new quadrangles and buildings to be formally opened today constitute the most significant physical transformation for the College since the middle of the 19th Century. 2013 becomes a famous date in our history… I record heart-felt thanks to you [the donors] for the vital part you have played in enabling us to deliver this historic development and for sharing the excitement of it with us… I believe this development should be seen as an outward and visible sign of Pembroke’s increasing self-confidence and ambition.” He received rapturous applause on announcing that “as of this morning, with the receipt of a new pledge of £300k, we have reached our fundraising target of £17m”. He went on to formally introduce HRH The Duke of Kent KG, who congratulated the College on its achievement. His speech made particular reference to the ‘extraordinary and very subtle’ design of the new bridge, the re-generation of central Oxford and the bonus of opening up the Lutyens façade of Campion Hall.

At the drinks reception in Farthings Café, immediately following the speeches, Vice Chancellor Professor Andrew Hamilton commented, “to see here in Pembroke an invest-ment of the magnificence – but also the imagination – of the new quadrangle… in many respects sets the standard” for Colleges in Oxford.

The reception was followed by formal Lunch in Hall, after which the Royal party left.

The formal opening brought to a conclusion what I, and others, had known as the New Build Project. On that day I found myself refl ecting on what we had achieved and yes, I confess, with much personal and corporate satisfaction.

It had been a long journey from the moment when, in 2005, we embarked upon the feasibility study to consider how we might develop our two existing sites, and one recently acquired, to give the College much needed additional facilities. Over the following year our advisors had introduced us to the concept of “land-massing” and we had clear ideas as to how we could implement a very ambitious plan if we were successful in acquiring other neighbouring properties. It took another two years to complete three more purchases and to reconcile ourselves to the fact that one neighbour would not sell, meaning we would have to build round his property!

However, we were now up and running and we moved forward to select the architects – Berman Guedes Stretton – and the rest of the professional team, a team which was about to pull off quite a remarkable achievement. That achievement was to come up with a very innovative design which made the best possible use of the available land, but with a feeling of space and openness.

The modular nature of the confi gura-tion gave the site an intimate character in keeping with the traditional ambiance of an Oxford College. And yet, in terms of the quantum of facilities, so much was included with 110 en-suite rooms, six fl ats, seminars rooms, the auditorium, the café, the art gallery and more. And for the pièce de résistance the ambition stretched to a footbridge linking everything to the College’s existing main site.

Notwithstanding the challenge of seeking the necessary planning consents in such a sensitive area,

English Heritage, the City Conservation Offi cer and the Highways authorities were all persuaded, and planning consent was granted in 2009. After more detailed design, Kingerlee, a local fi rm, were chosen to be the contractors and work got underway in late 2010. After our fair share of the trials and tribulations, to be expected of a complex project, the students took up residence in October 2012 and all the other facilities were fi nished several weeks later.

Everyone associated with the project is delighted by the outcome and it is a source of much pride that the new buildings have started to win some prestigious awards. These buildings are also the physical manifestation of the vast improvement in the College’s fortunes in recent times. However the greatest reward lies in the reality that these new facilities will serve so well so many Pembrokians for years to come.

And I still pinch myself that we managed to do it!

…for our newly expanded site: the ‘new build’ project is certainly starting to demonstrate to us all just how fl exible and impressive the facilities actually are. Having arrived at Pembroke in late February, I was immediately struck by how relatively smoothly the occupation and development of the accommodation and meeting rooms had gone. Yes, there were teething problems (like all new developments) and yes we still have work to do (with a large amount of rectifi cation work planned for December 2013) but overall, the project team and Pembroke community should rightly be proud.

Indeed, since the offi cial opening, the facilities have been in constant and expanding use. A good example of this is the way that students have worked with staff to develop Farthings Café: open seven days a week during term time, the Café now accepts debit and credit card payments, has a full range of coffee shop-style food and snacks plus a rapidly growing reputation for the best (and most

reasonably priced) cup of coffee in Oxford! Indeed, the Café has turned into a social hub for the College with Fellows, students, alumni and staff utilising the space to work, socialise and meet guests – a practical and welcoming space, which will no doubt grow in popularity over the years.

The new areas of the College have also attracted considerable praise and enthusiastic use from external clients. A key part of our forward business plan is to maximise use of areas such as The Pichette Auditorium and seminar rooms for a wide range of events that draw income into the College, when they are not in use for academic purposes. This has resulted in an extremely broad range of events from academic conferences and major international corporate meetings to fi ne dining, with every event bringing high praise and feedback on what has been provided. We were even privileged to hold the Lord Lieutenant of Oxfordshire’s Annual Awards evening in

Kevin Dudley, Executive Chef

It has been a challenging but fun year here at Pembroke, with all the new facilities and extra Conferences business. And, there have been many changes that will lead to even more exciting times. The biggest achievement for me, personally, was to be promoted to Executive Chef after being the Head Chef for seven years. As well as this being a great honour for me, it also meant passing the Kitchen over to Chris Allnutt, someone with whom I have worked for over ten years.

We have done lots of dinners over the last year for lots of different occasions (including Royalty!), but the one that I will always remember will be Giles Henderson’s Retirement Dinner with the Fellows back in June. Not only was it a great night, but this was also my last Formal Dinner as Head Chef.

The best part of my job is the interaction with Fellows, students and other departments within the College. I regularly meet with Food Reps from all over the College. This year, it led to my starting the fi rst ever Pembroke College Vegetarian Committee – something that has gone down really well with the students.

All in all, I would say it has been a massive year for everyone connected to the College, which is a place I am proud to be part of. It is a caring place run by caring people.

October, where a range of awards were presented on behalf of HM The Queen to Oxfordshire residents and Reservist Service Personnel; a very special evening which demonstrated yet again just how fl exible our College facilities are.

Indeed, Oxford residents got an even closer look in September when we joined the Oxford Open Doors pro-gramme and allowed visitors free access to all areas of the College. Hall staff laid out the High Table with silver to give a glimpse of the way Formal Dinners are held, while the Farthings Café team produced cream teas for the six hundred or so visitors that came through the doors in just four hours. With an ‘Ask the Fellows’ question session in The Pichette Auditorium, Fellows and staff worked hard on a very damp Sunday afternoon to show off the College to best effect – and once again we received very positive feedback.

But it hasn’t just been about the new facilities. This year we have refurbished some staircases in the Geoffrey Arthur Building (GAB), installed two modern and more effi cient gas boilers on the main site, completed full WiFi coverage and given a welcome uplift to the decoration in some of the public rooms in the Lodgings. The maintenance team have carried out much of this work between academic terms and conference events but are already planning what work needs to be done next year. For example, the windows at the GAB are in a dreadful condition and we hope to move this project forward next summer – if funding is identifi ed – particularly as our highly successful Access Programme is utilising the GAB on a regular basis. Indeed, we are looking right across our estate and putting together a rolling twenty-year maintenance plan to sustain, upgrade and adapt our facilities to make sure we continue to support our community and our Strategic Plan. Ranging from light touch to more ambitious ideas on how to adapt space and improve disabled access, the Pembroke team are working very hard to look after this fabulous College. It is not without its challenges but no-one said it would ever be easy.

College FinancesA Record Year

Financial statements are presented in the format required by the Charity Commission. This format includes capital donations which are added to the ‘business as usual’ income.

The College’s fi nancial 2012/13 performance was dominated by the success of the Bridging Centuries fundraising campaign and the associated expenditure on the New Build Project. Total Incoming Resources rose by £3.7m to £16.9m due largely to a record level of donations, which increased by to £8.9m; these donations included a very substantial legacy from the estate of former Advisory Fellow Peter Farthing (1968). Total Resources Expended rose by £2.2m to £10.2m due to increases in depreciation and interest charges relating to the new buildings, as well as higher costs as a result of the expanded operations of the College. It was pleasing to note that, with the advantage of all the new facilities, conference business increased to its highest ever level, with more in the pipeline for the current fi nancial year. Overall, the Net Incoming Resources rose by £1.4m to £6.7m, in this remarkable year of donations.

There was an adverse movement of £2.9m in the College’s cash position, principally due to capital expenditure of £4.6m (new buildings) and adding £5m to Long Term Investments, offset by the Net Incoming Resources of £6.7m.

Consolidated Balance Sheet as at 31 July 2013

The Balance Sheet continued to strengthen as Total Funds (Net Worth) increased by 17% to £70.2m. Long term Investments increased by 21% to a record high of £47.8m and the total return on investments was a very satisfactory 11.3% , compared to the benchmark (RPI + 4%) of 7.1%, as market conditions improved.

Looking ahead, there will be a degree of fi nancial stretch in the short to medium term as the College consolidates its operations at a much higher level, following the successful completion of the new buildings, which are now fully operational. But the strength of the Balance Sheet and the momentum of support from donations at all levels should equip the College well to continue to improve its position, as it has done in recent years.

The fi gures shown are extracted from the College’s statutory audited accounts for the year ended 31st July 2013. The fi nancial statements were approved by the Governing Body on 4th December 2013 and have been posted on the College’s website.

The Development YearCampaign – Bang on Target

2012/13 was a year when our donors helped us past the fi nishing post, beyond simple completion of the buildings and right to our fi nancial target, allowing us to luxuriate contentedly in the splendour of our new world across the bridge. We won our Campaign. That happy story has been told – in the fi nal edition of The Bridge and in our Newsletters – and elsewhere on these pages. Many of our events were essentially stewardship occasions as we declared the new complex open for business, whilst others were to bid farewell to the departing Master, to whose painstaking determination we owe the success of the project. We are, as ever, hugely grateful to all those who rose to the challenge of giving to Bridging Centuries. Their names will endure on the many objects they have chosen to name and/or are seen in print in our Annual Report. The signifi cance of the buildings was seized upon by so many of our alumni and friends: the College has gained so much new shape and proportion from this transformation that helped to re-awaken a powerful awareness of the institution’s possibilities for our donors while encouraging all of us here to harbour exciting visions for its future.

The score achieved this past year was truly momentous, exceeding even last year’s result: £8.8m of gifts, including the fi nal great push for Bridging Centuries (£4.3m), the crystallisation of yet another part of Peter Farthing’s (1968) exceptional legacy to the College, legacies from both the late Martin Burr (1971) and Ronald Lorimer (1955) and a magnifi cent anonymous donation which permanently endowed our new Fellowship in Theology and the Study of Religion.

Our Annual Fund, although it realised a very decent total of some £270,000 worth of gifts, fared less well compared with our earlier performance, as many of our donors continued to pay down their generous pledges to Bridging Centuries. The story is told in detail by Katharina Franz, our new Deputy Development Director, on the opposite page. Overall, almost 19% of our alumni supported the College fi nancially this past year. That fi gure is not at all bad, but we hope it will rise again and surpass earlier higher scores in the ‘20s’ achieved in the recent past.

We hope that a renewed focus on Pembroke as an institution with extraordinary possibilities will rekindle participation in regular giving, to address the on-going needs of our students and the academic community.

We aim to become even more effi cient in the appeals we organise and the events we manage, as we start to benefi t from the careful migration of our database to the University’s Development and Alumni Relations System, with its superior functionality. This is one of those “behind the scenes” changes that is momentous for the Offi ce and enables us, and the University as a whole, to coordinate initiatives between us more effi ciently while at the same time alumni can rest assured that every care has been taken to protect information held by the College.

Finally, the Theology Fellowship endowment was, I hope, a foretaste of things to come. After the buildings, our minds are set on the pursuit of academic excellence and the build-up of capital for academic purposes; our hedge against whatever the future may hold in terms of fi nancial market crashes or, who knows, changes in government policy which might affect fees. We need to endow many of our Fellowships properly, and make ourselves much more attractive to post-graduate students through the provision of full scholarships: all whilst making the Pembroke academic community more cohesive. We shall also welcome gifts of all sizes towards the College’s growing commitment to access initiatives. Finally, we seek to communicate better with the public and all constituencies through the creation of the new post of Head of Communications, now occupied by Catherine Beckett, our former Deputy Development Director.

Annual Fund 2012 /13

Katharina Franz, Deputy Development Director

Every day, Pembroke students benefi t from gifts to the Annual Fund. Our sincere thanks go to everyone who participated during the past year. Your support goes a long way towards enabling an enhanced academic experience for our undergraduate and graduate students, and helps sustain a great variety of core areas across the College – from teaching and research to student life and fi nancial aid.

The total raised this year was just over £270,000 which made a tangible difference to the experience of our students:

• £84,500 was contributed towards supporting undergraduate and postgraduate students fi nancially • £129,000 was put towards academic resources, directly supporting research by academic staff and postgraduate students, and also the provision of teaching hours, which are so vital for the tutorial system • £37,000 was allocated to facilities and refurbishment projects, as well as enhancing our accommodation through the provision of WiFi around College • £15,300 went to our Access Scheme headed up by Dr Peter Claus, helping to subsidise a three-day study skills course and the sixth annual week-long summer school • £5,200 was set aside this year for some truly inspirational student projects via the Annual Fund Student Grants Scheme (more details on the next page).

All this would not have been possible without the generosity of our donors and we thank everyone for making a statement about the importance of the College, and the value of the education it offers, through their gifts.

From the moment of joining Pembroke this summer, I have been struck by the sense of community and determination which is evident in the successes of our students, the work of our Fellows, and the enthusiasm of our alumni and friends. I am proud to be part of this team as we work together to enhance the opportunities available here. It is fantastic that more than 93% of all gifts this year are undesignated as this provides the fl exibility to meet needs as they change over time, and a commitment to regular donations puts the College in a strong position to plan

for the future. Now we have a larger site and new facilities which provide space for more activities, this is even more important. Further, I am delighted to report that we have appointed a dedicated Annual Fund Offi cer, Kendall Murphy, whom many alumni will already know. Over the past four years, Kendall has helped to develop the Annual Fund Student Grants Scheme and has been involved in all areas of the Development Offi ce.

In 2013/14, the Annual Fund will continue to play a crucial role in ensuring that Pembroke remains a place for the most academically able students to fl ourish, regardless of back-ground or means. Please consider joining in with our efforts to increase the impact of the Annual Fund by renewing your gifts.

The Development YearAnnual Fund – Students’ Experience

Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, parents and friends, Pembroke is able to enhance its community in many ways; from investment in academic pursuits and widening participation to ensuring our buildings meet 21st century requirements. These pages give some insight directly from our students into exactly how the Annual Fund has an immediate and responsive impact across each of the categories referred to on the previous page.

Academic Priorities

My PhD research focuses on Italian fantastic literature between 1860 and 1970, in short, the same kind of literature that comes to mind when mentioning Poe,

Hoffmann and Lewis Carroll. In June (2013), I was lucky enough to receive funding from the Dean of Graduates Fund to attend the Society for Italian Studies Biennial Conference in Durham, a three-day event, and the main UK conference in the fi eld of Italian Studies. As well as important and valuable feedback on my own work, and seeing what research was being conducted in other areas, one direct result of attending was an invitation to speak on behalf of Italian studies at the annual Independent Schools Modern Languages Association (ISMLA) Conference in February 2014, all of which would not have been possible if it were not for the Dean of Graduates Fund, which signifi cantly contributed to covering the costs incurred.

Access and Outreach

My role as JCR Access Rep makes it my job to involve other under-graduates with all Pembroke-led access initiatives. Last year I was part of a team of students that delivered the North West road trip. We visited two or three schools each day, staying

in local B&Bs overnight and talking to hundreds of students over the course of the trip. I have also been able to travel to many of Pembroke’s Subject Centre launches and meet the coordinators in our ‘hub’ schools. Most recently, I had the pleasure of being able to invite the fi ve prize-winners from last year’s summer schools to travel to Oxford and stay in Pembroke – all expenses paid – so that they could shadow a current student in a subject of their choice. This was an exciting and valuable opportunity for them to experience real Oxford lectures and tutorials, having each excelled in mock tutorials and seminars whilst on the Pem-Brooke/Pembroke North schemes.

Student Financial Support

This summer I graduated to a BA in Theology and only a month later I was back in Oxford reading for a Master of Philosophy in Modern Theology. This was only made possible at the last minute by a Graduate Scholarship. In particular, I’m examining where, in

our increasingly secular society, traces of the religious consciousness are to be found, as well as attempts to reweave it into the fabric of modern intellectual life. This has led to an interest in political theology and I’m currently exploring what explains the presence of religious sentiments and vocabulary modern narra-tives of empire. And, conversely, whether notions of empire underpin our attitudes to world Christianity and our continual focus on European thought. The support of the Annual Fund, to whose contributors I owe a lasting and heartfelt debt of gratitude, allows me to pursue a subject which grips and challenges me.

Student Accommodation, Sport and Other Facilities

The Geoffrey Arthur Building is a fantastic student environment. Located not far from College, on the banks of the picturesque Isis River, the GAB provides a wonderful community for Pembroke Finalists. Additionally, recent refurbishments

and landscaping to the GAB have truly enhanced the quality of living here. The communal kitchen and dining areas provide a great opportunity to catch up with your peers, take time out from your studies, and indulge in some home baking! The recent installation of WiFi in the GAB has been a further enhancement to the living experience, and something that may not have been possible without the generous funding received. This – in addition to the fantastic second year accommodation – makes Pembroke a comforting and supportive centre of student academia.

Annual Fund Grants

Last year, with the help of a Pembroke Annual Fund Grant, we established the Pembroke Lecture on Fantasy Literature in Honour of JRR Tolkien, to encourage the serious study of fantasy and science fi ction at Oxford, and to honour former Fellow, JRR Tolkien. Rather

than present lectures about Tolkien’s oeuvre, the series brings world-class Science Fiction and Fantasy writers to Pembroke to discuss their own work and the history of speculative fi ction as broadly conceived. ‘Hugo’ and multiple ‘Nebula’-winning writer Kij Johnson gave the Inaugural Lecture to a packed house of interested students, local critics and creators of science fi ction. The event created much interest – not just within the Pembroke community (all of whom were warmly invited to attend) – but also within the Science Fiction and Fantasy community, thus raising further Pembroke’s profi le outside of the University as a dynamic institution. The Annual Fund Grant received provides for a further two years of support, ensuring that the ground-breaking series can continue.

The Annual Fund allocates circa £5k a year for these Grants. Existing student societies – or those wishing to create new initiatives within College, – are encouraged to apply and each application is considered by the Student Development Committee, comprising JCR and MCR members, representatives from the Development Offi ce and the wider College community.

The Development YearEvents: the Busiest Year Ever

Juanita Hughes,Alumni Relations Manager

2012- 2013 was the busiest year ever in Pembroke.

It was only the afternoon before the Annual Meeting, in early January, that we managed to gain access to the new facilities – so it was quite a rush getting everything ready in time for the hundred plus Alumni that attended! However, it was sheer joy and relief for us all when we saw the smiles and heard the exclamations of amazement that the new quad was fi nally opened and the centuries had been truly bridged.

For me personally, it was wonderful having an auditorium with state-of-the-art technology in which to hold the meet-ing on site. Gone are the days of shuffl ing back from the GAB after the meeting for Lunch in Hall – more often than not in the rain. After the excitement of the Meeting itself, we launched into trying to give as many alumni as possible a chance to come and look around the new build-ings, with scheduled Open Days and tours.

The highlight of the year was, of course, the Offi cial Opening by HRH The Duke of Kent KG on 23rd April. It was the warmest and driest day in April and we thankfully had no need of the hundred emergency umbrellas stored in the Rookery just in case.

In addition to the usual Gaudies and regular London events we also held Farewell celebrations for Giles and Lynne Henderson in London, Oxford and the USA. What a legacy they have left and it was fi tting that the main building in the new quad has been named The Henderson Building – a welcome surprise for them.

The new facilities have really increased the spaces available for the events I organise in College and offer the opportunity to be more creative. In February we used The Pichette Auditorium as the venue for a very successful Careers Fest. With the seats pushed back to give maximum fl oor space we were able to set up tables throughout the room and the ‘speed-dating’ type format of the evening injected fresh dynamism into this ever-popular event. Farthings Café, too, holds much potential for drinks receptions, especially in the summer months, when the glass doors can be opened and guests can spill into the Rokos quad and enjoy the beautiful vista.

All in all, Pembroke has evolved into a dream venue; multi-functional space, stunning modern buildings and the gracious and beautiful old quads we all know and love. My horizons have expanded and I am loving it!

“The 1970s saw Pembroke emerging into a force with which to be reckoned in academic, professional and sporting attributes. I was fortunate to have been part of these inspirational times and was even married at the College: “Pembroke made me what I am.” I was stimulated to pay back.”

“Walking into Chapel Quad still inspires total joy. 30 years of relaxing on that bench with dear friends, celebrating Gaudies until 5am, reuniting with wonderful tutors Nico Mann and Frank Lamport again this year – what more could a Pembrokian want. The new buildings are stunning, the college as warm as

a loving parental embrace. So happy to support Pembroke – so appreciative of what Pembroke has given me.”
