Cuthbert’s Chronicle
Elena Martin (Anthropology 2019 and JCR President 2019-20) Like many, the St Cuthbert’s Society Alumni Association have been continuing to play a slow post-pandemic catch up in terms of activity and events and confess that we aren’t yet back to our pre-pandemic level of activity. We have, however, had a wonderfully successful meet up at the Ape and Apple in Manchester at the end of March. Attendees ranged from those graduating in the 1950s to the 2020s, and topics of conversation included a comparison of Cuth’s’ clubs and societies (past and present), beverages available at the bar and much more. We hope to be hosting more of these meet ups during the coming months.

The Association’s website has been down for a little while now, however we are happy to report that a new one is under construction many thanks to the help of a recent Cuth’s (soon to be) grad, Jack Reeves, who has taken on the challenge of building a new one. We plan to have it live towards mid-July. If any alumni or friends have any material that might be of interest to have on our new website archive, please do get in touch as we’d love your contributions. Additionally, the Association have started to work with the JCR on a new venture whereby members of the sitting JCR executive committee and matched with an alumni mentor who might be able to provide advice and support specific to the role that they are undertaking. The JCR hope that this will enable their student leadership team to make the most out of their times in role. This will benefit both those at the college as well as their own individual development. If you feel you have some time to share some of your relevant expertise, please do get in touch so that we can start to link people up based
on alumni experience and the current demands of each exec role. Lastly, we hope to welcome as many alumni as possible at the upcoming Alumni weekend and would love to hear your thoughts on what else should be on the Association’s horizon. Elena Martin St Cuthbert’s Society Alumni Association Chair
