Celebrating 50 Years of Women at Brasenose

The introduction of women students at Brasenose is arguably the most momentous event in the College’s history. Many will not appreciate that this was only fifty years ago. We are celebrating the 50 year anniversary with a series of dinners, events and a more permanent marker within the College grounds. I am delighted that we have put together a series of Principal’s Conversations to consider many aspects of the effect of women at Brasenose.

This series of events is open to the University Community.
