One of the great things about Lincoln is the chance to step outside the classroom and learn alongside people with different interests and perspectives.

Fourteen Fellows, students and friends of the College joined Lincoln Fellow Rebecca Menmuir and Chaplain Jonny Torrance for a day-long pilgrimage from Eynsham to Oxford, sharing readings from Chaucer, Tolkien, Wordsworth and T.S. Eliot along the way.

The group visited the site of the lost Abbey of Eynsham, picnicked among the ruins of Godstow Abbey and stopped at St Frideswide's Treacle Well in Binsey, which is dedicated to the patron saint of Oxford and the University, before returning to Lincoln for Evensong in Chapel.

(And yes, the Eynsham toll bridge still charges a hefty 5p.)

Lincoln congratulates DPhil candidate Maria Murad, who has been awarded an Early Career Visiting Fellowship from the Institute of Historical Research.

In her new blog, Maria writes: “I am grateful to the Lincoln community for nurturing my interest in history, despite me being an anthropologist by training. This has led my doctoral research, a history of anthropology, to be in a much stronger position than it would have been otherwise.”

Maria also reflects on the encouragement and sense of belonging she found at Lincoln: “No place feels more like home to me outside of my hometown in Kentucky than Lincoln.”

The Fellowship will enable Maria to spend six months in residence at the Institute during the writing-up period of her dissertation, while gaining invaluable experience among scholars working across history and other disciplines.

Yesterday was our annual celebration of Ascension Day, one of the real highlights of the Lincoln year. Bringing together students, Fellows, staff, alumni, the local community, and even our neighbours and friendly rivals from Brasenose, it’s a day unlike any other.

From the beating of the bounds to the Ivy Ale and the pennies thrown from the tower, our much-loved traditions were carried out with great enthusiasm.

Thank you to everyone who took part and shared this special day with us!💙
