What is Alumni Weekend all about?

Alumni Relations Office at 1 Quayside*

Saturday 22 September 8.45am – 5.00pm

In possession of a curious mind? Want to know more about… virtually anything? Alumni Weekend – the annual festival for the mind – is an exclusive opportunity to delve into your University’s current, future and past research, exploring topics you just didn’t have time to cover as a student (maths and nudity anyone?) and ones that are so cutting edge the results have only just been published.

Contents

Over three days, Cambridge graduates reconvene to be challenged, to cross the arts-science divide and to get the inside track on how the University itself is changing. A once-a-year chance to get back under Cambridge’s skin (but this time without your awkward student self spoiling the fun), many attendees also make the most of a few days in the Fens to catch up with old friends at College reunions or to meet new ones. It’s also the perfect time to introduce friends and family of all ages to the University’s charms and challenges.

* For regular attendees of Alumni Weekend, please note the change of location for the Friday and Sunday Help Desk

So step into the intellectual playground that is Alumni Weekend and let your mind go. Will a lecture on astrophysics change your worldview forever? Or will running into a long-lost pal rejuvenate a friendship?

Cambridge changed you once. Let its magic take hold once more this year.

What happens on Friday?

Friday Morning

The events, talks and tours on Friday take place in locations across Cambridge and enable you to see parts of the city and the University you may never have visited as a student.

This year we are including a number of tours with Blue Badge Guides, who bring an unrivalled level of local and historical knowledge. The day culminates in Come and Sing in King’s College Chapel – the highlight of the year for many attendees – and our evening Opening Reception at the Fitzwilliam Museum, which this year offers more than drinks and canapés; many of the galleries are staying open after the reception for private exploration, and alumni will also have the opportunity to be shown round some of the Museum’s treasures by expert guides.

In the Faculty Foyer

See some of the finest examples of Saxon, Norman, Gothic, Tudor, classical and modern architecture, not just in this country but, in some cases, the world. King’s College Chapel alone is one of the finest Late Gothic buildings and houses treasures worth a tour on their own. So why not follow in the footsteps of Wren, Gibbs, Wilkins, Essex, Hopkins and Foster and learn more.

Cambridge is rich in religious heritage with churches dating back 1000 years. Discover why Cambridge was described as ‘The cradle of the English Reformation’ and how three of its most prominent reformers met their end under the reign of Mary Tudor.

A tour to revisit the old haunts of famous writers, old and new.

Many of English Literature’s greatest names are associated with the life of Town and Gown: this tour explores the environs which shaped their thinking and writing. Twentieth century and contemporary modern writers and media figures will also be indicated, as well as characters featuring in children’s literature.

The Porter’s Lodge. A member of the Alumni Office will introduce alumni to the exhibition, and you are then free to explore it at your own pace.

Around one third of the portraits are on the ground floor; the remainder are upstairs and cannot easily be viewed by those unable to climb stairs. There is no seating available nearby. There is limited parking available at the Mare’s Run Car Park.

In 2000, the Royal Society of Portrait Painters mounted a millennial exhibition entitled People’s Portraits. The idea was to represent ordinary people from all walks of life. This exciting and original collection has been housed at Girton since 2002.

There are now around 50 paintings in the exhibition.

The Pavilion Room, Hughes Hall

Clare Hall Gallery

Helium is used in many high tech applications such as medical scanners. Historically we have not paid much attention to how we use it and have happily filled party balloons with the gas. However, despite its being one of the most abundant elements in the universe, we are in danger of enjoying our parties at the potential expense of not being able to do medical scans in the future.

Anthony Nicholson was very much inspired by nature, colours, scent, movement and silence. This exhibition, featuring oils and watercolours is an homage to this talented English painter who sadly died in 2011.

Dr Rachel Polonsky, Fellow in Slavonic Studies at Murray Edwards, talks about her award-winning book ‘Molotov’s Magic Lantern’. Dr Polonsky spent a decade in Moscow, living in an apartment block on Romanov Street that was once home to the Soviet elite; one of those ghostly neighbours was Vyacheslav Molotov.

In his former apartment she discovered what remained of his library, leading her on an extraordinary journey throughout Russia.

Can history contribute to better policy making today?

This discussion looks at the practice of history and policy from the perspective of an academic, a civil servant and a journalist. The speakers include David Reynolds, Professor of International History and a Fellow at Christ’s; Rachel Fentem (Clare 1998), HM Treasury; and Chris Bowlby (Christ’s 1980), BBC journalist.

Come & Sing King’s College Chapel

Every year, Come and Sing – Alumni Weekend’s very own scratch choir – challenges alumni singers of all ages to come together under the expert tutelage of Stephen Cleobury, Director of Music at King’s, to learn, rehearse and perform a piece in just one day. This year, you could be one of the singers attacking the opening chords of Mozart’s Vesperae Solennes de Confessore alongside a professional orchestra, leading soloist Paula Downes and student soloists Feargal Mostyn Williams, Ruairi Bowen and Daniel D’Souza.

A rare opportunity to sing under the fan vaults of King’s Chapel, one of the world’s most renowned choral venues, Come and Sing is your chance to rediscover the joy of singing in a choir or a chance to attend a concert and see the Chapel at night with its screens closed.

A highlight of the singing year.

You can book for Come and Sing as a standalone event.

What happens on Saturday?

Saturday

At the heart of Alumni Weekend is the Saturday lecture programme; a day full of lectures offering insight into some of the University’s most up to date thinking and research from leading academic experts representing all six Schools, from Arts and Humanities to Clinical Medicine and Technology.

Lectures 09.30am – 10.30am

In the late afternoon the Chancellor will be in conversation with BBC journalist Stephen Sackur, joined by the Vice-Chancellor. Following his election as Chancellor in October 2011, the event will offer a unique chance to hear Lord Sainsbury and the Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz discussing together at length their thoughts on the future of the University and on the major issues facing global education.

All lectures will take place on the Sidgwick Site. Details of exact locations of each lecture will be available online in September and at the Help Desk.

Making a Material Difference: Getting the Message Across About Sustainable Materials, in Song and on the Catwalk We make materials very efficiently, but doing so uses a quarter of the world’s energy so is a major source of carbon emissions. The only way we can reduce the impact is by using less material – and how should we communicate that? With pop-music, great graphics and super-models!

Dr Julian Allwood (Caius) leads a 15 person inter-disciplinary research group looking at materials and the environment, and is a lead author of the upcoming 5th Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment report.

Benefitting from History: Poverty, Gender and Life-Cycle under the English Poor Law There was considerable state welfare before the Welfare State. This lecture reflects on recent research on just who was deemed ‘deserving’ of such help in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It will show that single mothers and the elderly were treated far more generously than families and the unemployed.

Dr. Samantha Williams (Girton) is University Lecturer in Local and Regional History. She specialises in the history of poverty and is author of Poverty, Gender and Life-Cycle under the English Poor Law, 1760-1834 (Boydell and Brewer). She is currently writing a book on unmarried mothers in London 1700-1867.

Saturday Lectures 09.30am – 10.30am

How to Dress in the Renaissance

Bridging our Future: Lessons from Hammersmith

The links between fashion and body image are not a recent social construction. Extreme, uncomfortable and excessive clothing signalled just as much in the Renaissance as now and could challenge convention as well as accommodate it. This lecture examines the multiple ways in which appearances could be central to views of the self and others, then as much as now.

We take our bridges for granted, and only take notice when they go wrong. But the sudden closure of Hammersmith Flyover in London shortly before Christmas shows how much we depend on them. Issues that that arise in existing bridges, and options for the future, will be discussed.

Dr. Chris Burgoyne (Emmanuel) is Head of the Structures Group at Cambridge.

He formerly taught at Imperial College, and is an expert on pre-stressed concrete and the use of new materials, such as aramid and carbon fibres, in structural engineering.

Dr. Ulinka Rublack (St. John’s) is a leading cultural historian of early modern Europe who has published widely on religion, gender, crime, state and society. She is, most recently, author of the prize-winning study Dressing Up: Cultural Identity in Renaissance Europe (OUP) and editor of A Concise Companion to History (OUP).

Domestic Service in Twentieth Century Britain Downton Abbey invited viewers to think of domestic service as a relic of the past, governed by clear social hierarchies and ‘Victorian’ morality. In this social history lecture, Lucy Delap outlines the ways in which domestic service continued to be feature in British homes in the twentieth century. The ‘servant problem’ offers a window onto the conflicts, changes and continuities in class, gender, and migration in modern Britain.

Dr Lucy Delap is a fellow of St Catharine’s and a member of the History Faculty. She has published widely on British gender and feminist history, and is currently writing a book about late twentieth century masculinities. Knowing Their Place: Domestic Service in Twentieth Century Britain, was published in 2011.

Nature’s Glass: Half-full or Half-empty?

Wild nature is continuing to decline but is the situation hopeless? By visiting places where things are getting better rather than worse Professor Balmford explores how motivations, approaches and people involved in conservation are changing, and ask what these stories tell us about the prospects for nature in the 21st century.

Professor Andrew Balmford (Clare) is a conservation scientist working on quantifying the changing state of nature, the costs and benefits of effective conservation and how best to reconcile with farming. Following the lecture, Professor Balmford will be available for further questions and discussion and will hold a book-signing for his new book Wild Hope.

Lectures 11.15am – 12.15pm

All Shapes and Sizes: Does Family Structure Matter for Children’s Psychological Wellbeing?

What really matters for children’s psychological wellbeing? This lecture will consider whether it is necessary to have two parents, a father present, genetically related parents, or parents who are heterosexual. The psychological processes that underlie children’s optimal development will also be explored.

Professor Susan Golombok is Professor of Family Research and Director of the Centre for Family Research and a Professorial Fellow at Newnham. Her research examines the impact of new family forms on parenting and child development.

What do Animals Think?

How to describe the mental lives of non-human animals is a philosophical as well as a scientific question. On the one hand, we know that animals do have a mental life; on the other hand, we know that their mental lives are very unlike ours. So how should we describe their minds?

Professor Tim Crane has been Knightbridge Professor and a Professorial Fellow of Peterhouse since 2009. He taught for 20 years at University College London and founded the Institute of Philosophy in the University of London in 2005.

Saturday Lectures 11.15am – 12.15pm

Our Nearest Neighbour, the Moon Our only natural satellite has fascinated humankind since prehistory. It is the only other place in the Solar System we have visited in person, yet scientists are still making startling discoveries about the Moon – and what it reveals about our own planet.

Dr. Carolin Crawford (Newnham) works at the Institute of Astronomy, and is also is the Professor of Astronomy at Gresham College, London. She gives many talks and lectures on all aspects of astronomy, and regularly contributes to national radio programmes.

Lectures 1.30pm – 2.30pm

Duels, Gangs and Terrorists: the Unacceptable Reach of Joint Enterprise Liability in the Criminal Law If two people agree to commit one crime and, whilst doing so, one of them commits murder, the other party could be guilty of murder as well. This has proved to be especially relevant in respect of gang crime. But can this use of the criminal law be justified?

Professor Graham Virgo is Professor of English Private Law, Deputy Chair of the Law Faculty and Senior Tutor of Downing College. He is a Bencher of Lincoln’s Inn. He writes about various topics on criminal law, particularly the law of homicide.

Dambusters, the Great Escape and Colditz Bringing engineering to life through some of the most famous stories from the Second World War, this lecture will flesh out the background to three recent Channel Four documentaries, looking in particular at how live reconstruction can tell us so much more than a reading of eye-witness accounts.

Dr. Hugh Hunt was asked to act as Lead Engineer in the Channel 4 documentaries. A Fellow of Trinity College, his principal interests are in dynamics and vibration, gyroscopes and boomerang and his research is in the fields of renewable energy and geo-engineering.

London 2012: Legacy at a Time of Austerity Two short weeks after the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games end, Matt Rogan investigates the challenges Britain faces in delivering on its bid promises for sporting participation, social regeneration and economic wealth. He also considers the role Britain has played in reinvigorating the Olympic Movement through the delivery of London 2012.

Matt Rogan (Fitzwilliam) is co-author of ‘Britain and the Olympic Games, Past Present Legacy’. As Managing Director of the business Two Circles he is now working with Olympic sports on maximising the London 2012 sporting legacy. Matt is also a Board Director of European Sponsorship Association, a county level tennis player and an Ironman triathlete.

Consuming Wrongdoing Why are we fascinated by the wrongdoings of others? What goes on in our search for thrills in sensational art and literature? This lecture draws on some particularly striking examples in Spanish street-literature of the 19th century, which are held in Cambridge University Library, to explore these questions.

Professor Alison Sinclair (Clare) is Professor of Modern Spanish Literature and Intellectual History. Her current AHRC-funded research project is on Wrongdoing in Spain 1800-1936: Realities, Representations, Reactions, focusing on the gap between the historical profile of wrongdoing and its profile in culture, with particular reference to popular culture.

Colonial Improvement: Rethinking the Great Irish Famine The Great Irish Famine has been mired in debate over the level of culpability of the British government. Most scholars reject the extreme nationalist charge of genocide, but beyond that there is little consensus. Drawing lessons from famine experiences across the British Empire, and from the voices of those who vehemently protested against state policy, Dr Nally argues for a more nuanced understanding of “famineogenic behaviour” — conduct that aids and abets famine – and suggests that while the ‘faults of omission’ weighed heavily on British government policy, the ‘crimes of commission’ also left their deadly impress.

Dr. David Nally is a University Lecturer in Geography and Fellow and Director of Studies at Fitzwilliam. His research focuses on the political, economic and cultural dimensions of colonisation.

Saturday Lectures 1.30pm – 2.30pm

Are your Genes to Blame when your Jeans don’t Fit? Recent dramatic changes in our environment have led to the current obesity epidemic.

However, we have all responded differently to these changes. Dr Yeo will argue that bodyweight is a highly heritable trait, providing us with the opportunity to use genetics as a tool to understand the molecular mechanisms controlling food intake.

Dr. Giles Yeo (Wolfson) came to Cambridge in 1994 for his PhD with Sydney Brenner and in 1998 began post-doctoral training with Stephen O’Rahilly on obesity genetics. He is now a group leader at the Metabolic Research Labs, studying brain control of food intake.

Birth, Brains, Immunity and Human Evolution An exploration of ‘the obstetric dilemma’ faced by humans. A pelvis adapted to bipedalism and a large brain is associated with pregnancies where very large and very small babies have high mortality rates. The maternal immune response to the placenta is the key to setting the conditions for successful pregnancy.

Professor Ashley Moffett (King’s) is researching the maternal immune response to the foetus, seeking to understand how two genetically different individuals, mother and baby, coexist during pregnancy. Disruption of this delicate immunological balance may explain common disorders of human pregnancy.

Lectures 3.00pm – 4.00pm

Lectures 3.00pm – 4.00pm

The Healing Presence of Art This lecture focuses on the extraordinary richness of art produced for hospitals, from the Renaissance to the modern period. Masterpieces by Piero della Francesca, Grunewald, El Greco, Hogarth, Tiepolo, Van Gogh, Munch, Frida Kahlo and Naum Gabo are among the great works which humanise hospitals and leave a profound, lasting impression on patients, staff and visitors.

Richard Cork (Trinity Hall) is an award-winning art critic, historian, broadcaster and curator. Formerly Art Critic of the Evening Standard and Chief Art Critic of The Times, he was Slade Professor of Fine Art at Cambridge and broadcasts regularly on BBC radio and television. He has curated major exhibitions at Tate, the Hayward Gallery, the Barbican Art Gallery and the Royal Academy.

Cambridge and Global Health Addressing healthcare is a complex problem – the sort of problem that Cambridge is good at tackling. In this lecture Sir Leszek will discuss the changing nature of global disease, and of healthcare. He will explain how health, education, social development, and agricultural development are mutually dependent: and how health has become a measure of societal development and national wealth, as well as an important goal in its own right.

Finally, he will illustrate the part Cambridge can play as a major research university in helping address these sorts of multidisciplinary global challenges.

Have we been Tricked by the Trickster? Don Juan Today

Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz is Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge. He is Chairman of the Research Advisory Group of the UK Department for International Development, and former CEO of the Medical Research Council.

What does Don Juan stand for today? It seems striking that, at the start of the twenty-first century, we still feel fascinated by Don Juan. We condemn his appalling acts, and yet we enjoy the many versions that have been written of this myth. Have we been tricked by the trickster?

Engineering, Maths, Art and Nudity

Dr. Samuel Llano (Clare) is a Research Associate at Cambridge. He specialises in the study of Spanish theatre, music and culture of the early twentieth century. His forthcoming book Whose Spain? Negotiating “Spanish Music” in Paris, 1908-1929 will be published by OUP.

A gentle look at how the mathematics of singularity that is used to study the stability of engineering systems can rather unexpectedly also give new insights into art, and particularly the portrayal of the nude.

Warning: this talk contains mathematics and nudity.

Dr. Allan McRobie (St. Edmund’s) is a University Reader in Engineering with an interest in the dynamics and stability of structures.

Saturday Lectures 3.00pm – 4.00pm

Will Chinese Banks Change the World?

Chinese banks are now among the world’s largest by assets, profits and employment. So far they have largely remained in China but they are starting to expand abroad. Their motives are opaque and they are the product of deep-seated rivalries in the Chinese government system – but will they change the world banking system?

Dr. Simon Taylor (Sidney Sussex), a former investment banker, is a Lecturer in Finance and Director of the Master of Finance degree (MFin) at the Cambridge Judge Business School. He has researched into the financing of nuclear power and the behaviour of stock market analysts and is currently researching into the development of the Chinese banking system.

Lectures 4.30pm – 5.30pm

The Changing Contours of Work Intensity in Europe Since 1990 This lecture explores the changing pattern of hard work around Europe over the last 20 years, and tries to unravel the puzzle of why, whilst work in the rest of Europe has been intensifying, workers in the UK have been slowing down.

Dr Brendan Burchell is a Senior Lecturer in the Sociology Department and a Fellow at Magdalene. He researches on topics concerning employment and wellbeing, including job insecurity, unemployment and work intensity.

Charles Dickens: A Celebration of his Fiction Charles Dickens engaged passionately with the political debates of his time. This lecture traces the contours of his jurisprudential and theological interests, and illuminates the distinctive contributions that fiction can make to the formation of public opinion. In this bicentenary year, we celebrate the transformative powers of Dickens’s narrative art.

Dr. Jan-Melissa Schramm (Trinity Hall) is a Fellow in English. She is the author of Testimony and Advocacy in Victorian Law, Literature, and Theology (CUP), and Atonement and SelfSacrifice in Nineteenth-Century Narrative (CUP).

Leading a World-Class University

Lectures 4.30pm – 5.30pm

The Chancellor, Lord Sainsbury of Turville, in conversation with Stephen Sackur, joined by the Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz.

They are the men leading Cambridge into the second decade of the twenty-first century. But what do the newly elected Chancellor Lord Sainsbury of Turville and the Vice-Chancellor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz really think about the challenges and opportunities facing the University? This year, alumni will have the chance to get a rare insight into how they think, what they hold dear and how they work, as the Chancellor and the Vice-Chancellor take to the stand together to talk about Cambridge’s role in the wider world.

In a conversation led by Stephen Sackur, top BBC interviewer and presenter of HARDtalk, the Chancellor will discuss his Cambridge background, his interest in this University and in universities in general , and his philanthropy - in neuroscience, economic development in Africa, food security, and the arts.

Lectures 4.30pm – 5.30pm

Together they will give the inside track on what it is like sitting at the helm of this leading university and take questions from the floor on the big issues from how Cambridge has a key role to play in food security to the future of research funding.

Lord Sainsbury of Turville (King’s 1959) was elected Chancellor in October 2011. After reading History and Psychology at Cambridge, he joined J Sainsbury plc in 1963, going on to become Finance Director, Deputy Chairman and then Chairman from 1992-1998.

Made Lord Sainsbury of Turville in 1997, he was appointed Minister of Science and Innovation from July 1998 to November 2006. He is the founder of the Gatsby Charitable Foundation and in 2003 received on behalf of the Sainsbury family

the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Philanthropy. He is an Honorary Fellow of King’s College.

Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz was installed as the University’s 345th Vice-Chancellor in October 2010. Born in Wales, he came to Cambridge in 1998 as a Lecturer in Medicine. He was Chief Executive of the UK’s Medical Research Council from 2007 to 2010, and was knighted in 2001 for his contribution to medical education and research into developing vaccines. He is an Honorary Fellow of Wolfson College.

Stephen Sackur (Emmanuel 1982) presents the current affairs interview programme HARDtalk on BBC World News and BBC News 24.

He joined the BBC in 1986 and for fifteen years was a BBC foreign correspondent, reporting from around the world including postings in Washington, the Middle East and Brussels as Europe Correspondent.

Major threats and extreme events such as severe weather or terrorism present managers of contemporary organisations with an acute and urgent picture of uncertainty which renders strategic decision making problematic. A recent study has looked at a range of organisations at risk, from those in high risk environments such as transport hubs to ‘soft’ postcard targets (e.g. the Tower of London) and iconic targets such as the Olympics. Bridgette Sullivan-Taylor, visiting Fellow at the Judge Business School will present her research findings on identifying ways in which these capabilities might be embedded and enhanced within organisations and along key supply chains.

Buses

September is a very busy time in Cambridge, so it is advisable to book early. Colleges in particular need to be contacted as far in advance as possible, as they will be accommodating reunion dinners.

Access Many tours are wheelchair accessible but some may involve a lot of walking, standing or climbing of stairs. If you are a wheelchair user or have serious mobility issues please contact the Cambridge Alumni Relations Office for further access information or visit the website.

Venues with parking are mentioned under the individual entries in this programme. If there is no mention of parking in the ‘other information’ paragraph, there is no parking available.

You can reserve a parking space in advance at the University Park & Cycle facility which is located at the West Cambridge Site, off Clerk Maxwell Road (approx 30 minutes walk from the city centre) at a cost of £15.00 for three days.

Please select this option at the time of booking and note it is not compulsory to cycle. The barriers will operate from 8pm to 8am during which time cars can depart but cannot enter the site. Cars can be left overnight.

Please visit www.cambridge.gov. uk/ccm/navigation/transport-andstreets/car-parks for full details of parking in Cambridge including maps and tariffs.

For information about Park and Ride, see www.parkandride.net/cambridge Further information about city centre buses can be found on the Stagecoach website: www.stagecoachbus.com Trains There is a regular express service between London Kings Cross and Cambridge (or see www.nationalrail.co.uk for detailed information about all services. The railway station is approximately 1.5miles from the City Centre.
