It truly was the pinnacle of the Anniversary Year to date, and it was wonderful to see so many Mertonians and their friends and families over the course of the weekend. Indeed, as this special 750th Anniversary edition of Postmaster goes to print, happy memories of the Birthday Weekend with its rich intellectual content, its Saturday evening celebrations and its Family Garden Party are fresh in all our minds (you can see photos from the Birthday celebrations on page 4). Moreover, we are most grateful to have a ‘birth date’ of the College - 14 September 1264 - for us to celebrate.

Most recently, the actual Anniversary of the College was marked with a special weekend-long celebration of talks and tours, music and Chapel services, food, fireworks and family fun (2, 5, 13 and 17) Students, staff and Fellows were treated to Pimms and delicious treats at the Summer Quad Party (1 and 15) and nearly 1000 alumni and current members of the College let their hair down at the 750th Anniversary Summer Ball (4, 6, 7 and 11). Music lovers have had their fill with an exciting calendar of première performances from the Merton Choirbook (9) and organ recitals. Throughout 2014 Merton has celebrated this special landmark year with Merton Conversations in Hong Kong (3) and New York (18), Oxford (10) and London (14). 114 Merton in Manhattan, Merton in the City, Merton Lawyers’ Association, Merton in Hong Kong, Merton in Japan, Golf Society & Oxford Town and Gown 10k News of Old Members.120 In Memoriam.166 Featuring the obituary of Emeritus Fellow Dr Edward Olleson Forthcoming Events.202 95 New Students 2013.97 Undergraduate Awards & Prizes. 82 Alan Bott (1953) examines some 13th- and 14th- century fragments of early Merton College tiling and stonemasonry Book Reviews.86Įlections, Honours & Appointments. 74 Project Officer Catherine Farfan retells tales gathered from oral histories as part of the Anniversary Collection Lest we forget.76 Postmaster remembers those Mertonians who died serving in the First World War Lost, Little Known and Unbuilt Merton (11). 18 Biology Society, The Bodley Club, The Chalcenterics, Merton Floats, Halsbury Society & History Society 12 Rowing, Football, Croquet, Rugby, Blues & Haigh Ties Clubs & Societies.
