THANK YOU FROM THE MASTER This autumn the University launched its ambitious new ‘Dear World… Yours, Cambridge’ campaign, aimed at raising £2 billion. How does this affect Fitzwilliam College and our 150th Anniversary Campaign?

As an integral part of collegiate Cambridge, Fitzwilliam shares the ambitions of the wider University community. We are an important cog in a leading teaching and research university, serving an increasingly global society. There is no doubt that our shared vision is the source of our collective strength. Our fundraising agenda has to be ambitious. Fitzwilliam’s 150th Anniversary Campaign goal of raising £20 million by 2019 remains at the heart of what we do here in College, and the £1.6 million you donated in the last financial year (ending July 2015) is spent on Fitzwilliam students, College teaching and research, and our College buildings. Gifts to Fitzwilliam are de facto gifts to the University of Cambridge, and we are delighted that our fundraising is counted in the overall philanthropic total reflected in the ‘Dear World’ campaign.

The impact of alumni generosity at Fitzwilliam can be seen on every page of this Report. We are particularly proud of our newly renovated A Staircase, which marks an important moment in the realisation of the College’s ambitious yet necessary project to update all our 50-year-old student accommodation. Many alumni have contributed generously, and I would particularly like to thank Roger Graham OBE and his wife Irene, who kick-started the transformation with a lead gift of £500,000. Subject to funding, B and C staircases will be tackled next, followed by the Huntingdon Road-facing staircases. At the same time we need to renovate the Central Building and to extend the MCR. Find out more on page six.

As Master of Fitzwilliam, one of my main concerns is the welfare of our students, and student support remains the most popular area to which Fitz alumni choose to donate, often through the annual telephone campaign. The 2015 campaign was not only the most successful to date (raising over £190,000) but it also brought the cumulative total of our seven successive campaigns to more than £1 million. Amazing! Thank you all. From next year the need for student support will become even more acute, as the College will have to cover a significant shortfall in the Cambridge Bursary Scheme (see page ten). Your past generosity leads me to believe that, with alumni help, this will be achievable.

The success of our telephone fundraising campaigns – in which most gifts are of £25 a month or less – demonstrates that when many alumni come together to support the College with smaller donations, they make a very significant difference. Your commitment is wonderful, and is essential to Fitzwilliam’s future.

I would also like to recognise the contributions of Lord Lamont and the Campaign Council. The pursuit of large donations is challenging but essential. We have expanded our Development Office this year by appointing a Deputy Development Director, Isobel Cohen, whose focus is on raising money from trusts and foundations. It is with heavy hearts that we anticipate the departure next year of Dr Helen Bettinson, who in the last five years has worked tirelessly to develop the ambition, strategy and success of our Development Office. Ably supported by a small team, and by the energies of the Fitzwilliam Society, the Fellowship, and the students, she’s done a great job.

Please take time to read this Report and to consider the ways in which you may be able to help, the doors you may be able to open.

With your support, Fitzwilliam College is marching onwards and upwards!

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

FINANCIAL REPORT Sensible planning and donor generosity resulted in another successful year for the College, as Bursar, Andrew Powell, explains.

Thanks to the 2014-15 result and alumni donations we completed the external refurbishment of A, B and C staircases and the new gym. The gym was made possible through a generous legacy and has not only given the College an impressive new fitness facility, but you can also now shower and change before going off to your next assignment!

I’m pleased to report that the College’s financial performance in 2014-2015 was satisfactory, with a £321,274 surplus of income over expenditure. This was down on the record result of the previous year (£488,000) but still among the better years of recent times. Although we saw increases in fee income, student rents and catering income, these were offset by falls in conference and investment income, meaning that total income rose by 1.4%.

Our expenditure grew by 3.5% and the outlook is challenging. With wages and stipends making up almost 50% of total expenditure, the College’s finances are particularly sensitive to changes in this area. Rises in pension costs from April 2016 and the National Living Wage will increase wages and stipend costs by an estimated £250,000 - £300,000 per annum by 2020.

Over the same period Fitzwilliam will have to find another £70,000 per annum towards the College share of the Cambridge Bursary scheme, which will rise from 25% today to 50% over the next three years (see the Senior Tutor’s report on page ten).

2

The balance sheet strengthened again during the year and ‘net worth’ grew by £5.2m to £74.3m. This was the result of market value gains of £3.3m, donations (less expenditure) of £1.2m, a further contribution of £0.4m from the Colleges fund and the retained surplus. Within the figure of £74.3m the College endowment has now passed £50m, standing at £53.8m at the year end – although we are still a long way behind the majority of Cambridge colleges. The balance of £20.5m is General Reserves, £9.5m of which is held in the form of realisable assets and is the only reserve

available to fund demands such as future operating deficits, investment in buildings on the College site, pension deficits and loan repayments.

Once again the College has received vital and generous support from its benefactors; donations for the year included £644,000 for the building funds and £471,000 for bursaries and student support. One of the most exciting features of recent years has been the way in which we have been able to grow the support given to students.

Over the last three years the total financial support given to Fitzwilliam students, including Cambridge Bursaries, has grown by a third, and now amounts to almost £500,000 per annum. This is a spectacular achievement which has been made possible by the wonderful generosity of Fitzwilliam’s donors.

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

PROGRESS OF THE 150TH ANNIVERSARY CAMPAIGN Your generosity helps the College contribute to the University’s ambitions and achievements, as Development Director Dr Helen Bettinson (History 1982) explains.

When the 150th Anniversary Campaign was launched eight years ago, our £20 million target by 2019 was seen as ambitious, perhaps overly so. But with only four years to go I can report that we are on course to reach it.

This has not been without challenge or difficulty. The world-wide recession led to belt-tightening in homes and businesses; we are especially grateful, therefore, to alumni and friends who support the College by investing in our students, our teaching and our buildings. Your generosity and farsightedness has enabled Fitzwilliam not only to weather the economic storm, but to continue to flourish.

The University is also ambitious, in fundraising as it is in teaching and research.

In October the ‘Dear World...Yours, Cambridge’ Campaign was launched with a target of £2 billion. In many people’s eyes Cambridge, and Fitzwilliam College, might not appear in need of financial support. But in order to remain a worldleading University we must invest in our future – not for its own sake, but for the sake of generations of talented individuals from across the UK and from overseas. In supporting the College you can be sure that you are investing in a University that not only helps set the world’s agenda, but has the ambition to answer global questions. Your gift to Fitzwilliam is a gift to Cambridge.

4

Just as the success of the University is built on the diversity and independence of its constituent colleges, so the success of our 150th Anniversary Campaign rests on the aggregation of thousands of gifts. In this Report you will see the breadth of benefits that they have brought. Of course, there are particular highlights – the transformation of A Staircase (which must now be followed

by B and C) and the new gym being the most visible. But it is also the invisible good that accrues as a result of your gifts that touches the lives of our students and the College generally.

Money for student bursaries, both graduate and undergraduate, means we can encourage applications from the most able students at home and abroad. The Student Opportunities Fund and our travel and research funds mean we can broaden their outlook and enrich their learning experience when they are here. Academic prizes encourage and reward their

intellectual pursuits and exam successes.

And last, but certainly not least, our sports, music and drama funds underline the importance of extra-curricular activities to the life of the College as well as individuals.

As Development Director I thank you for helping us climb towards the £20 million target we set ourselves eight years ago.

More importantly, I thank you in my capacity as a Fellow of this College who sees, day in, day out, the extraordinary richness of the College community. We all know what makes Fitzwilliam special – your philanthropy ensures that it will remain so.

£13.8 million has been raised to date.

“

OUR SHARED VISION IS OUR STRENGTH

Professor Sir Leszek Borysiewicz, Vice-Chancellor, speaking in his annual address in 2015 “The Collegiate University is, by definition, a partnership – and a very successful one. Quite simply, the University as we know it could not exist without the 31 Colleges that are so essential to the education and welfare of our students. Nor would Colleges have much purpose if they were not partners with the University.”

Fitzwilliam College is an integral part of The University of Cambridge. We continue to fundraise under the banner of our 150th Anniversary Campaign, and all donations received in the coming years will count both towards our own Fitzwilliam total and that of the Collegiate Cambridge campaign launched at the end of 2015. A gift to Fitzwilliam College is de facto a gift to Cambridge.

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

BUILDING FITZWILLIAM Alumni support for the College’s capital plans is already paying huge dividends for students, as Chair of the Estates Committee, Dr Bill Allison, explains.

We are delighted with the transformation of the old Library into the Upper Hall, unveiled last year; we now seek further funding to complete imaginative plans for the remainder of the building, to include a first floor gallery, the refurbishment of the Gaskoin and Reddaway Rooms, and a remodelled main entrance and stairway.

The Estates Committee is proud of Fitzwilliam’s architectural heritage, but our wonderful built assets impose on us a great responsibility as well as some difficult technical challenges.

Our 1960s buildings are in desperate need of upgrading. I am pleased to report, therefore, that substantial progress has been made over the past 12 months.

The internal reconfiguration of A Staircase into a house with three self-contained flats has been greeted with enthusiasm by students and Tutors alike. Even those of us involved in the project from first concept through the planning stages have had our expectations exceeded. We are especially grateful to those alumni, whose generosity enabled us to undertake this much-needed work. With your help we must now turn our attention to B and C Staircases, and then to the Lasdun accommodation on the north side of Tree Court.

The Central Building also requires major updating both to preserve its unique architectural features – such as the Dining Hall’s distinctive lantern roof – and to breathe new life and energy back into the heart of the College.

6

The Estates Committee has been concerned with two further, separate projects this year: firstly, the creation of a fantastic new two-storey gym within one of the squash courts, made possible through a generous bequest. The second project is still at the planning stage and awaits a far-sighted donor: an extension to the MCR to provide adequate social space in The Grove for our expanded graduate community.

On behalf of the Estates Committee I invite you to visit the College to see the transformations that are taking place.

I have no doubt you will be impressed.

Lower level of the new gym

RESTORING THE CENTRAL BUILDING For more than five decades our Central Building has been at the physical heart of the College. Our task now, whilst protecting and enhancing its unique architectural features, is to restore its place as the social hub of Fitzwilliam. The first phase of an ambitious project – transforming the old Library into the Upper Hall – is complete, and we look to commence much-needed remedial work on the Dining Hall lantern roof as a necessary prelude to the reconfiguration of the first floor.

Our architects, Cullinan Studio (who designed The Olisa Library), have come up with a scheme that will breathe new life into the Reddaway and Gaskoin Rooms, in addition to introducing a gallery overlooking the Dining Hall. The gallery will not only make it easier for people to move around the building, but will also serve as a stunning new location for exhibitions. All services will be upgraded, including ventilation, lighting and acoustics in the Hall, dramatically improving this iconic part of the College.

HOW YOU CAN HELP CENTRAL BUILDING • Lantern roof repairs: £460,000 • North Gallery & Gaskoin Room: £650,000 • South Gallery & Reddaway • Room: £590,000 • Dining Hall upgrade: £780,000 THE GROVE • MCR Extension: £450,000

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

TRANSFORMING OUR FRESHERS' ACCOMMODATION The necessary updating of Sir Denys Lasdun’s fifty-year-old accommodation presents the opportunity to improve the student experience at Fitzwilliam.

Our aim is not just to make these 1960s staircases and corridors fit for purpose, but to create Freshers’ accommodation that ranks among the best in Cambridge.

Our architects, RH Partnership, were selected for their expertise in bringing 1960s buildings up to today’s technical and social standards.

Respecting the integrity of Lasdun’s original vision, the imaginative retrofitting of A, B and C Staircases will result in three ‘houses’ within the original shell.

We are delighted with the results achieved on A – the rooms and social spaces are more secure, environmentally sustainable and visually distinctive. The creation of a wheelchair-accessible ground-floor suite means the College can offer the same shared-living experience to all new students, and we look forward to incorporating a second suite into B. With your help we can enhance the Fresher experience at Fitzwilliam and attract the brightest applicants.

ROGER AND IRENE GRAHAM The transformation of A Staircase was made possible thanks to the generosity of our alumni; Roger Graham OBE (Engineering 1958) and his wife Irene were instrumental in bringing the project about. Their donation of £500,000 allowed the work to go ahead, and in 2014 Roger became a Fitzwilliam Benefactor.

“It is a great pleasure to be able to contribute to the experience of succeeding generations of Fitzwilliam students by providing them with more personal and communal accommodation on each floor, enabling them to create their own community in a 21st century environment.”

Roger Graham OBE (Engineering 1958) 8

“

Katie Bryden (History 2015) “The new accommodation in A block is fantastic. My room is light, modern and spacious, and having an ensuite shower makes it even better. The kitchen is really useful, especially the addition of an oven – and the new social space on the corridor means that you have an area where you can relax and spend time with your friends, which helps you settle into university life.”

HOW YOU CAN HELP With your help we can enhance the Fresher experience at Fitzwilliam and attract the brightest applicants.

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

SUPPORTING STUDENTS Senior Tutor, Dr Paul Chirico, explains how alumni donations reinforce the College’s commitment to encouraging students, irrespective of financial background.

THE CAMBRIDGE BURSARY SCHEME

The economic landscape of higher education has been transformed in the last decade. Many alumni benefitted from a system without tuition fees and which offered full or partial grants towards living costs. Today’s students can wonder at their predecessors’ good fortune!

Student bursaries are essential in enabling talented individuals to come to Fitzwilliam; travel, research and maintenance awards allow them to thrive during their time here.

Alumni gifts to establish bursaries and studentships, and donations to the Student Opportunities Fund, have had a dramatic impact on hundreds of Fitzwilliam students in recent years.

Whilst demand for such support continues to grow, imminent changes in the internal funding of Cambridge Bursaries, the mainstay of University provision, will place an even greater burden on colleges to support their own students. For the less well endowed college such as Fitzwilliam, with a strong commitment to widening participation, the challenge will be considerable.

In 2014-15, 26% of undergraduates received bursaries or maintenance support, whilst 56% received some form of financial support from the College.

10

The Cambridge Bursary Scheme, which offers maintenance support to undergraduates in greatest financial need, is one of the best in the country, far exceeding minimum Office for Fair Access standards. Awards are family-means tested, and range from £50 to £3,500 per annum. Under the previous arrangement the University paid 75% of the cost and colleges paid the balance. However the poorer colleges, including Fitzwilliam, benefitted from a further subsidy provided by the Isaac Newton Trust, which left the College only having to meet about 2% of the total cost for its own students. Under the new agreement the colleges’ share has risen to 50%. At the same time the Isaac Newton Trust has announced the withdrawal of its subsidy scheme from 2016-2017 in order to redirect funding towards graduate support.

The net effect of these two changes is that Fitzwilliam will have to find an additional £140,000 per annum to maintain current levels of provision.

In 2014-15, 89 Fitzwilliam undergraduates received Cambridge Bursaries.

“

Savannah-Gabrielle Adeniyan (English 2013) “The Cambridge Bursary has been more than just a monetary gift; it’s knowing that someone else is recognising the difficult places you’ve come from to get to Cambridge. I’ve gone from passing over mentioning school trips to my mum because I knew we didn’t have the money, to being able to go on enriching experiences by myself and with friends.

I’ve also been able to travel to London for events related to my pursuit of a law career which I wouldn’t have been able to without the bursary. Whatever I do, I’d like to continue to make a positive difference wherever I end up, using the opportunities I’ve gained both as a result of going to Cambridge and as a beneficiary of the bursary.”

GLYN JONES FUND Fitzwilliam undergraduates in need of financial support are benefitting from the generosity of Glyn Jones, who studied Engineering at Fitzwilliam from 1986-1989. The Glyn Jones Fund provides bursaries to students studying in the areas of Natural Sciences, Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Sciences and Mathematics.

“Like many others, I owe a large part of my education, both formal and informal, to my time at the College. Since its beginnings, Fitzwilliam has done a wonderful job of broadening access to world class education. However, in today’s environment of tuition fees and minimal grants, that job is as hard as it has ever been. It therefore seems only right, now I am in a position to be able to help, that I give something back to allow current and future generations to access the same opportunities that I had.

“The generous tax treatment of donations has meant that the benefit to the College community is substantially greater than the actual cost to me as a donor. This extra ‘bang for the buck’ was also a significant influence in my decision to establish the fund.”

Glyn Jones (Engineering 1986)

HOW YOU CAN HELP You can help support our undergraduate students either by setting up your own endowed fund to provide bursaries, or by contributing to our new expendable Fitzwilliam College Bursary Fund.

• To provide one full Cambridge Bursary: £3,500 per annum • To endow one Cambridge Bursary each year in perpetuity (3-4 students at any one time): £400,000 • To endow a College Bursary scheme: £5 million

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES FUND The Student Opportunities Fund allows the College to offer rapid support where it is required, under the guidance of the Tutorial Committee. Our aim is to be responsive to new requests for assistance, and to shape our support as a complement to the shifting funding offered through the University and external sources. Our students were fortunate to benefit from gifts offered by 456 alumni during 2014-2015.

One hundred and sixty-eight awards with a total value of £54,316 were made from the Fund. £11,400 was spent on maintenance bursaries (ranging from £200 to £550) for 32 undergraduate students; this additional assistance was offered as a supplement to larger awards from the Cambridge Bursary Scheme. Seven graduate students received maintenance bursaries totalling £4,000.

The Fund provided 23 graduate research awards, totalling £6,564, and 20 undergraduate travel grants totalling £3,827. The maximum award in both these categories was £400, a welcome contribution but one which in most cases still requires substantial investment from another source or from private funds.

Seventeen students received charitable project awards providing additional

12

funding of up to £250 (totalling £3,950).

Awards were made under several new headings. Twenty-four students, in receipt of standard maintenance awards, were offered additional support (of £140 each) towards the cost of residence in College outside term. A new instrumental award and a new international event (for all students) early in the academic year were supported from the Fund. At the end of the year, a grant of £10,000 was made towards the cost of equipping the new gym.

Under existing schemes, thirty-nine students received half-funding for successfully-completed Cambridge University Language Programme courses; sixteen received rebates of up to £500 to allow them to live in College during the vacation while they joined research projects or undertook local internships; five winners of the Collinssplatt Silver Tankards for Music and Drama and of the College’s annual Fine Arts Competition received prizes from the Fund; four received grants towards the cost of assessments for Specific Learning Difficulties; four architecture students towards their studio costs; and three towards the cost of in-sessional support for English for Academic Purposes.

STUDENT OPPORTUNITIES FUND AWARDS “The Student Opportunities Fund helped to cover the cost of my travel and accommodation whilst in Belarus, where I spent two weeks with the 800 children who were at the camp over the summer. This opportunity was very beneficial to me on several levels. There were clear academic benefits – as a student of Russian, to be in a Russian-speaking country for the first time was eye-opening and useful to my course, both linguistically and culturally. But the personal benefits were also considerable – working with children from a repressive and financially troubled country such as Belarus was extremely rewarding.

“It would have been impossible to undertake this trip without the award I received, and I am very grateful for the assistance that was offered to me.”

Emma Sanderson (MML 2014) volunteered at a children’s camp in Belarus, which is supported by the charity ‘Belarusian Victims of Chernobyl’.

“I was attached to the High Power Fibre Lasers group where I worked closely with my supervisor, Professor Johan Nilsson, to investigate modal excitations in optical fibres. The placement was part of my Part II Physics Long Vacation Project, and as such, I was eager to make meaningful findings and learn as much as I could. I relished the opportunity to build on my knowledge, and when I witnessed my first signs of progress it was an exhilarating experience.

“My Professor also chanced upon a discovery regarding modal degeneracies by inspecting the data I obtained. While there remains much work to be done, we are keen to collaborate on a paper to publish our findings and we are also discussing plans to further the project. I am truly thankful for the sponsorship that made this experience possible, which certainly went beyond my expectations.”

Samuel Seah (Natural Sciences 2013) spent nine weeks with the Optoelectronics Research Centre at the University of Southampton, investigating modal excitations in optical fibres.

“The choir was hosted at St Anne’s Cathedral, where we sang daily evening services throughout the week. We had a fantastic time, and found the clergy extremely friendly and helpful, and they spoke of their admiration and appreciation of us visiting the cathedral. The tour was a great opportunity to publicise both Fitzwilliam College and the choir. We definitely achieved that goal, with many members of the clergy and congregation very keen for us to come back! I would like to thank donors for their generosity in helping this tour go ahead. Thank you!”

Pippa Quincey (Psychology 2013) travelled to Belfast with the Fitzwilliam College Chapel Choir, the choir’s first tour in four years.

TEACHING & RESEARCH The intellectual achievements of our Fellows contribute to Cambridge’s global impact, and through their College teaching they pass on their expertise to the next generation.

From Superconductors and Food Security to Renaissance Literature and Nanotubes, Fitzwilliam’s Teaching and Research Fellows are engaged in the big questions facing our society.

Their achievements contribute to Cambridge’s reputation as a world-class university and draw talented students to the College. It is no exaggeration to say that our Fellows help turn the enquiring minds of today into the influential global citizens of tomorrow.

However, funding pressures on higher education are making it difficult for both the University and the College to recruit as many academics as we would like. At Fitzwilliam the challenge is to meet the teaching needs of our students and the professional needs of our Fellows, and we are working in partnership with departments and faculties to use our limited resources to best effect.

We are especially grateful to alumni who support this core activity and fundraising for academic posts remains a priority.

In 2014-15 our 431 undergraduates received 20,814 hours of small-group teaching from 930 supervisors at a cost of £304,733, in part supported by 374 alumni through the Fitzwilliam College Teaching Fund.

14

FUNDING STUDENT SUPERVISIONS: THE TEACHING FUND Fitzwilliam is committed to small-group teaching, the hallmark of our collegiate tradition. College teaching lies at the heart of the Cambridge learning experience, but is costly. Indeed, the supervision system is a key factor in why a Cambridge education actually costs around double the £9,000 fee. The Teaching Fund supports the College’s load, ensuring that our students continue to receive small-group supervisions led by world-leading academics, and protecting the best that Cambridge, and Fitzwilliam, has to offer.

PALMER BROWN HISTORY FELLOWSHIP Alumnus Tony Brown has generously established a new Fund to support a History teaching post, ‘The Palmer Brown Fellowship in History’. As a keen family historian who spends time in archives doing historical research, Tony appreciates the importance of excellent undergraduate teaching and research, and the increasingly challenging financial outlook facing the humanities.

“The Palmer Brown History Fellowship Fund will allow Fitzwilliam to employ an additional College Lecturer in History, helping greatly in providing for the teaching needs of our historians. I consider a knowledge of history of great importance; if we all had a better grasp of history, better decisions might be made in tackling the world’s problems.

“My father’s cousin, Miss Edith Palmer – who had been secretary to the accountant for Frederick Warne, the publisher of Beatrix Potter – included me in her will leaving me shares in the publisher, which many years later was bought by Penguin Books. Therefore, having been able to invest in property, I can now establish this Fellowship Fund commemorating the legacy from Edith Palmer to me.”

Rev’d Anthony Frank Palmer Brown (Theology 1953)

ACADEMIC SUPPORT Intellectual curiosity is supported and achievements recognised thanks to alumni donations.

Fitzwilliam’s role in nurturing worldclass talent, which contributes to the excellence of Cambridge University, is underpinned by a range of academic prizes, scholarships and subject funds.

Prizes and scholarships are awarded to undergraduates achieving Firsts in Tripos – each receives a £150 prize and a £150 scholarship. Increasingly, the College is able to make named awards as donors establish endowments of £5,000 to fund them in perpetuity. In 2015, 97 undergraduates achieved Firsts (or their equivalents) – hence the need for a growing number of awards!

THE GEOFF WALKER SCHOLARSHIP A new scholarship has been set up in celebration of Dr Geoff Walker’s 60 year connection with the College. Geoff matriculated in 1955, completed his BA and PhD at Fitzwilliam, and served as Director of Studies in MML from 1974 until 1994.

‘The Geoff Walker Scholarship for excellence in the field of Hispanic Studies’ is supported by gifts from alumni and Fellows, and was officially announced at the 2015 MML Dinner.

The College also recognises specific achievements within the Tripos framework, for example the dissertation prize for third year Economists from the Chandaria Economics Fund, and for History dissertations, the Sir James Holt Prize.

“It is a great honour to be the first recipient of The Geoff Walker Prize. I am truly grateful to Dr Walker for his generosity towards Fitz hispanists. The prize was awarded for two ‘long essays’ which were written for the paper ‘Latin American Culture & History’. The multi-disciplinary course, which combined literature, film, and history, was one of my favourites and a challenge.

“The Michaelmas essay analysed the simultaneous violence and creative potential embedded in urban spaces. I chose to focus on Mexico City through the novel Burnt Water by Carlos Fuentes and Luis Buñuel’s film The Young and the Damned. For Easter Term, I looked at the interplay between revolution and realism in Carlos Fuentes’ Old Gringo and Elena Poniatowska’s The Night of Tlatelolco.”

CHRIS MARTIN THEATRE FUND Since 2012, Fitzwilliam English students have had the opportunity to attend Shakespeare and Greek plays, thanks to a benefaction from alumnus Chris Martin (English 1976).

In October Dr Hero Chalmers took a group of around 30 Fitz students to see a production of one of the most famous Greek tragedies – ‘The Oresteia’ trilogy by Aeschylus – at the Globe Theatre in London. Coincidentally this play was directed by Fitzwilliam alumna Adele Thomas (English 2000).

it covers all the students’ ticket and travel costs, meaning that no-one is left out for financial reasons, and the trips always prove a great team-building experience.”

“We went on the last night of the play’s run at the Globe, so there was a real sense of occasion. As ‘groundlings’ we stood in front of the stage, which only added to the experience as the actors often move through the crowd.

“The academic benefit to our students cannot be overstated. You can sit in a seminar and discuss plays as texts, but they are living things and there really is no substitute for seeing a performance.

Greek tragedies are so ancient that they can seem very remote, and this experience gave the students a direct connection to the play.

ENCOURAGING ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Alumnus Suki Samra (Computer Science 1991) established a scholarship in 2014 for the benefit of second and third year students of any subject. Matt Kellet is the first recipient.

“Receiving the SS Samra Scholarship meant a lot as it represented what I feel to have been my greatest academic achievement to date. I have used the money to further my academic study going forward by buying books relevant to my course, some of which will help in what I hope will be an active research career (as well as a bit of fun!). I have always appreciated the support of the College and I am glad that scholarships such as this exist, as they motivate students to work hard throughout their life in College.”

FUNDING GRADUATE STUDENTS Alumni-funded awards contribute to Fitzwilliam’s thriving graduate community, as Graduate Tutor Dr Bhaskar Vira explains.

supporting the most talented individuals across the range of subjects, whatever their personal and economic circumstances.

Since our inception in the 19th century Fitzwilliam has been a welcoming home and has provided an intellectual launching pad for graduate students from across the world.

As Graduate Tutor I see first-hand how our graduates battle the twin difficulties of increasing fees and decreasing funding from traditional sources such as research councils. Home students begin their postgraduate study with existing debt from their undergraduate courses, and overseas students face higher university fees, as well as additional costs imposed by continued changes in immigration legislation. In this changing financial climate, the College remains committed to attracting and

The most effective way of achieving this is by using our own studentships and bursaries, which have grown considerably thanks to the support of our benefactors, to leverage additional funding from other sources. Over the past few years we have been able to use our partial awards – such as the Charlton Studentships and Peter Wilson Estates Gazette Scholarships – to invest in academic high-fliers, thereby encouraging others within the University to help make up the financial ‘package’ they require to take up their places in Cambridge.

Of course, we would not be able to do this without the generosity of alumni and friends who, through their own standalone funds or via the general Fitzwilliam College Graduate Fund, provide the financial underpinning needed for our graduate support strategy. On behalf of the Graduate Tutors I would like to thank all those whose philanthropy enables us to bring some genuinely impressive men and women to Fitzwilliam College.

“

Rob Machado (Classics 2011) was awarded a Fitzwilliam College Charlton Studentship and a College/Newton/Chess award.

“As a state school student who had been on bursaries as an undergraduate at Fitzwilliam, I had real concerns about being able to fund the qualifications needed to become an academic. Fitz has generously provided me with two separate bursaries to fund my MPhil. Humanities research tends to trickle into our culture very gradually but it really does shape it – we need many voices involved in order to progress. I’m eager that academia is filled with people from diverse social backgrounds.”

ASHTON BROWN In 2014-15 Ashton Brown studied for an MPhil in Education at Fitzwilliam, thanks to financial support from members of the Billygoats, and represented Cambridge in the historic 2015 Women’s Boat Race.

This year she was awarded the Fitzwilliam College PhD Studentship on academic merit, and has embarked on a PhD in Education; the remainder of her funding comes from a Cambridge Trust Rowing Scholarship, which is a collaboration between the Faculty of Education, the Cambridge University Women’s Boat Club and The Canada-UK Foundation.

For her research Ashton is using large public data sets from the UK, Canada and the United States to study the non-cognitive predictors of academic success. She hopes this research will help identify at-risk children and shape the curriculum.

“I have been incredibly fortunate to receive financial support from Fitzwilliam for my MPhil and PhD. I am grateful that the College recognises the importance of both studying and rowing, and the crucial support of bursaries to allow students like me to study here. The support of the Billygoats has been incredible and I am proud now to be a Billygoat myself.

Without the support of the College and its alumni, alongside the Faculty and The Cambridge Trust, I would not have been able to take up my place for an MPhil and now a PhD.” ANDRES OLARTE PENA Growing up in Colombia the idea of attending university in the USA or UK seemed an impossible dream. Fortunately Andres’ academic potential was recognised by Fitzwilliam’s Graduate Tutors and thanks to a portfolio of awards he is now studying for an MPhil in Environmental Policy. He has been awarded the Fitzwilliam College One-Year Graduate Studentship, a Peter Wilson Estates Gazette Scholarship in Land Economy and a Cambridge Trust Santander Scholarship.

Andres is focusing on the impact of climate change on coffee production in Colombia.

His ambition is to address agricultural policy issues there in order to safeguard the future of coffee crops.

“I did some research into the different colleges at Cambridge and fell in love with Fitzwilliam because of its history and ethos. Brilliant people have studied here and many didn’t have sufficient funds, so I really identified with Fitzwilliam. I tried to fundraise to come to Cambridge but I wasn’t getting anywhere near. When I heard I had been offered the awards I was overjoyed.

HOW YOU CAN HELP You can help graduate students by giving to the expendable Fitzwilliam College Graduate Fund. Please contact us for further details of how to support a graduate studentship or research award.

• To provide one fully-funded studentship (fees & maintenance): £20,000-£38,000 per annum • To provide one full maintenance studentship: £14,000 per annum.

To provide one partial studentship: £6,000-£10,000 per annum • To support graduate research and travel awards, you can make a donation to the Student Opportunities Fund

“Most of the social injustices in Colombia stem from agriculture and energy. All my life I have wanted to work for the development of my country and Latin America. Thanks to these scholarships I am now building the necessary knowledge to do so.”

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

WIDENING PARTICIPATION The Admissions team is developing exciting initiatives to attract the brightest students, as Admissions Tutor Dr Sara Owen reports.

Our ethos has always been to offer opportunities to talented individuals regardless of social, economic or cultural background. This remains at the heart of what we do. ‘Access’ and ‘widening participation’ are not just fashionable buzzwords – our commitment is demonstrable and continuing.

Through innovative partnerships with schools and other organisations, our Admissions team reaches out to exceptional young people who might not otherwise consider a Cambridge education, and we do this without compromising our high academic standards.

The determination of the College to attract the brightest candidates regardless of personal circumstance is reflected in the active participation of our students.

Their willingness to act as mentors and ambassadors enables us to devise sustainable outreach programmes, including the first college-run shadowing scheme, and the pioneering Kent Academies Network.

20

HOW YOU CAN HELP If you would like to support Fitzwilliam’s widening participation programme you can make a gift to the Access Fund.

The College spends around £70,000 each year on these activities: • Five-day summer residential at Fitzwilliam for a small group of school students and teachers: £5,000 per visit • Widening participation in schools and school visits to College: £25,000 per annum • Fitzwilliam Shadowing Scheme: £1,200 per annum • Fitzwilliam’s Schools Liaison Officer: £40,000 per annum

NEW FITZWILLIAM SHADOWING SCHEME Fitzwilliam is one of only a handful of colleges to develop its own Shadowing Scheme, thanks largely to the hard work and determination of the JCR Access team. Sophie Keating (English 2013) – the current JCR Target and Access Executive – took the lead in organising the scheme, which launched in November.

to allow the students to stay in them! The students accompanied their mentors to lectures, supervisions and practicals, as well as dinner.

“The Cambridge University Student Union Shadowing Scheme has been running for a number of years, and is very successful at changing school pupils’ minds about what Cambridge is like and motivating them to apply. After observing its success, and in particular the number of Shadowing Scheme students who then went on to apply to Fitz, we decided it was time to develop our own Fitzwilliam scheme.

“They got to experience Fitz Sessions in the bar, a quiz, and talks about the student experience, financial support and the admissions process.

By living here, they received an unparallelled experience of college life. Hardly any of the students have had parents or relatives who have been to university, and some also receive free school meals or have caring responsibilities.

“The ten Year 12 students stayed at Fitz for two-and-a-half days in November, and were all high-performing pupils from state schools in Hammersmith and Fulham in London. Each student had an undergraduate mentor studying the subject in which they were interested, some of whom generously gave up their rooms

“We’re very proud of the fact that our scheme is almost entirely student-run, and the plan is for it to become an annual event.”

FITZWILLIAM LIFE New societies, strong Cuppers performances and the gym have all been highlights in another busy year, says JCR President Alex Cicale.

appreciated down-time away from their studies. We also organised Burns’ Night, numerous acoustic sets in the bar, and Re-Freshers’ and Freshers’ Weeks.

It’s clear that the ‘work hard play hard’ mantra is as true and alive in Fitz as it has always been.

One of the things that makes Fitz such an exciting place to be is the involvement of the vast majority of students in extra-curricular activities.

Encouraged by the College and the JMA, 2015 has seen even more opportunities for students at all levels.

NEW COLLEGE GYM An exciting project to convert one of the existing squash courts into a new two-storey gym (with spiral staircase) has been completed, thanks to a £100,000 legacy from Ken Wilson (Agriculture 1946).

Fitz Debating and Fitz Theatre are just two of the revitalised societies that have sprung up over the last year. The former has hosted guests such as Dr Madsen Pirie, President of the Adam Smith Institute, and the latter organised a wonderful production of Arthur Miller’s ‘The Crucible’. Newly established Fitz Enterprise launched a series of events and fostered fruitful links between alumni and the student body.

On the sports front the College has had a successful year. The men’s first boat won their blades in the Lents, whilst the College’s football, cricket, hockey and tennis teams put in particularly strong performances in Cuppers. The completion of the new gym has also been a highlight, providing a fantastic new space to make students at other colleges envious!

The JCR has been extremely busy, especially the welfare and entertainment reps. Throughout the year we ran film and comedy nights, as well as Fairtrade Fortnight, giving students some much-

Amalgamated Clubs President, Jamie Bristow (Natural Sciences 2012)

In addition to doubling the floor space, the new gym benefits from upgraded showers and changing facilities. According to a student survey, improved free weights provision and more cardiovascular machines were the priorities.

Some of the existing equipment has been transferred to the new gym, but more equipment is needed before the gym is complete.

A further £15,000 is needed to fully equip the gym.

"Students have been involved in the planning of the new gym from the beginning, and we know that it will be a big draw for potential applicants. Sport remains a massive part of student life at Fitz and we’re proud to have what is one of the best gyms in Cambridge.”

MUSIC SCHOLARSHIPS "Music at Fitzwilliam is not only about brilliant musicians performing within the College and at prestigious events across the University; it is also about enhancing the experience of all students through the creation of social spaces, peer support and forging life-long connections between students. The College’s music scholarships enable us to simultaneously recognise outstanding talent, and to nurture outstanding potential into outstanding achievement. Our scholars serve as facilitators of these activities; from our Senior and Junior Organ Scholars leading the Chapel Choir with the support of the Choral Scholars, to the new Conducting and Musical Leadership Scholarship enabling an emerging leader to build skills in ensemble creation and leadership. Music scholarships support not just the award-holders themselves, but all of the Fitzwilliam community who want to be involved in music-making in the College".

Katharine Parton, Director of Music

HELP CREATE A YEHUDI MENUHIN SCHOLARSHIP The College wishes to mark the centenary of the birth of late Honorary Fellow, Yehudi Menuhin, through the creation of a Yehudi Menuhin Scholarship for string players.

Fitzwilliam has a long association with outstanding string and violin playing. The Fitzwilliam String Quartet, founded by College undergraduates in 1968, is one of the longest established professional quartets in the world and continues to have a close association with us. A Yehudi Menuhin Scholarship for student string players would celebrate this tradition and invest in musical leaders of the future.

The Yehudi Menuhin Scholarship will cost £5,000 to endow.

HOW YOU CAN HELP • Alumni can contribute to the extra-curricular life of the College generally through the Student Opportunities Fund.

• The Sports Support Fund helps individuals and teams at all levels • Music scholarships cost £5,000 to endow

The 150th Anniversary Campaign

2015 TELEPHONE CAMPAIGN More than £190,000 was donated to benefit Fitzwilliam’s students in a record-breaking campaign.

£1 million has now been donated to Fitzwilliam via telephone campaigns, a fantastic achievement that’s had a big impact on students over the last seven years.

The £1 million milestone was reached during the 2015 telephone campaign, and it illustrates the collective difference that hundreds of alumni can make when they come together to support the College.

Thank you to all who have generously contributed over the years and taken the time to chat to students. Donations of all levels are greatly appreciated and are allocated to the Student Opportunities or Teaching Funds in accordance with donors’ wishes.

The 2015 telephone campaign raised £190,000 for Fitzwilliam over the next three years, and the 14 student callers gained an enormous amount from the experience, including careers advice and valuable workplace skills.

THE STUDENT CALLER EXPERIENCE from previous callers that they got the chance to speak to some really interesting alumni, and as my graduation date was nearing I felt that this was perhaps my last opportunity to learn more about how Fitz has transformed over the years.

“I already knew that I was going to spend the Easter holiday at Fitz writing up my dissertation, so taking part in the telephone campaign meant that I could work on my dissertation during the day and then earn money as a caller in the evenings and at weekends. I’d heard

“Despite an age gap of over 50 years between myself and some of the people I spoke to, I was amazed to find that we still had a huge range of things to talk about and many shared experiences of College life.

“I had so many interesting conversations, and quite a few lasted over an hour,

hopefully I didn’t bore people too much!

In all honesty, my favourite calls were with those people who met their future partners at Fitzwilliam, which was a surprising number of alumni. I loved hearing stories of how they got together whilst they were here. I also received an awful lot of careers advice. This was incredibly useful, particularly as I was unsure of what I wanted to do following graduation. It was comforting to learn that a number of other alumni felt the same!"

GIVING TO FITZWILLIAM There are many ways in which you can make a gift, a number of which have tax benefits for you and Fitzwilliam.

If you are a UK taxpayer, you can increase the value of your donation by choosing to donate through Gift Aid. Gift Aid adds an extra 25% to your donation, at no extra cost to you. Higher rate taxpayers can also reclaim the difference on a gift between the Basic and Higher (40%) rate of tax.

This can be done by contacting HMRC and asking them to amend your tax code, or through your Self Assessment tax return.

Single and regular gifts You can make a single donation, or set up a regular monthly, quarterly or annual gift.

This can be done online or by returning the enclosed giving form. Alternatively, you can contact the Development Office to donate over the phone by credit or debit card, or make a bank transfer. Cheques should be made payable to ‘Fitzwilliam College’.

Donating straight from your salary or pension

Gifts of listed shares, securities and real property Gifts of listed shares, securities and real property by UK tax payers have become one of the most tax-efficient ways of giving.

They attract full relief from Capital Gains Tax and, in addition, allow you to claim Income Tax relief on the full value of the gift at the time the shares, securities or real property are transferred to the College – a double tax saving.

If your employer, company or personal pension provider runs a Payroll Giving scheme, you can simply tell them to make a donation to Fitzwilliam from your salary or pension before taking off any tax. For example, if you pay tax at the basic rate of 20% and make a monthly donation of £10, you save £2 tax (20% of £10), meaning the actual cost of the donation to you is £8.

Contact your Human Resources department to set up Payroll Giving.

Donating via your Self Assessment tax return

Your company may also operate a giftmatching scheme. To find out if your company operates such a scheme and to obtain a copy of their matching gift form, please contact your Human Resources department.

Remembering Fitzwilliam in your Will costs you nothing today, but will make a lasting difference for generations of students and scholars to come. Leaving a legacy to Fitzwilliam can also have tax advantages for your estate. Once you

If you complete a Self Assessment tax return, you can donate to Fitzwilliam all or part of any tax repayment due to you, simply by entering the College’s details in the relevant section of the tax return form. Gifts made in this way are also eligible for Gift Aid.

Leaving a legacy

have informed the College of your planned legacy, you will be invited to join the 1869 Foundation. Please contact the Development Director if you would like to discuss making a bequest.

Giving from the USA If you live in the USA, it’s best to make your gift via Cambridge in America as you can then claim your donation against tax. You can donate online, or send your cheque, made payable to: ‘Cambridge in America’, to: Cambridge in America 1120 Avenue of the Americas, 17th Floor New York, NY 10036.

Please suggest that the Directors of Cambridge in America exercise their discretion and allocate your gift to support Fitzwilliam College.

David Stewart (Geography 1967)

“My three years at Fitzwilliam in the late 60s were life-changing in many ways, setting me up for a 45 year career in town planning based on my Geography degree. I met my wife Mary in the city and due to her family’s links with the College (both her parents had worked at the old House and her mother at the new College) we were given the use of the Reddaway Room for our wedding reception in 1971.

We have joined the Foundation as a way of providing support for both the College but especially future Geography students. Our legacy will assist them to travel more widely than I was able to do to research their subject, and thus give them the best possible start in their future career.”

• Your name will be included in our annual list of donors, although we will, of course, respect the wishes of those who request anonymity.

• The Development Director would be pleased to discuss naming opportunities to ensure that you are remembered in perpetuity. Named fellowships, scholarships, courts, staircases and concerts are among the possibilities that we can explore with you.
