College News in Brief…
Culinary Achievement
We are pleased to share that our talented Head of Catering, Sarfraz “Freddy” Hussain, was inducted as a member of the prestigious La Chaîne des Rôtisseurs and made ‘Chilterns Chef Rôtisseur’ — a well-deserved achievement to recognise Freddy’s outstanding creativity and expertise!
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Collection
The Library has just received a donation of first editions and other early copies of the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Most famous as the creator of Sherlock Holmes, he was a prolific writer of other novels and non-fiction, reflecting his varied interests including sport, war, medicine, and spiritualism. The collection is the gift of Chris Whatmore, brother of Professor Dame Sarah Whatmore, and will sit alongside her donation of books by H G Wells that we received earlier in the year. Both collections were assembled by their father, Colonel Denys Edwin Whatmore
Remembering Nabila Walji
Nabila sadly passed away during her MSc in Visual, Material and Museum Anthropology at Keble in 2022. We were honoured to host her family and friends in September to dedicate a bench in her memory. Friends, family and colleagues gathered on Liddon Quad and shared warm memories of the talented Nabila.
