INFOR MATION Information College Record 2021 Please submit your news, such as details of any awards or publications, for inclusion in the 2021 College Record here: www.queens.ox.ac.uk/college-record-2021. Alternatively, you can send this information by post to the Old Members’ Office in College. The deadline for entries is 1 September 2021. You are also invited to submit obituaries of Old Members. Please send these to the Old Members’ Office. Visiting the College Old Members are usually welcome to visit at any time, except during the Christmas closure period, although we have had to close the College to all visitors during the coronavirus pandemic. Please contact the Lodge ahead of your visit to ensure that we are open (01865 279120 or lodge@queens.ox.ac.uk). Once the College is able to open once more, please present yourself at the Lodge with an item of ID (preferably your University alumni card) so that the Porter on duty can check your name against the list of Old Members. Advance notice, particularly if you would like to visit the Library, is preferable although not essential. If you are intending to bring a group (other than your immediate family) you will need to arrange this in advance. The Upper Library is accessible during Library staffed hours and we encourage Old Members not to visit the Library during Trinity term as this is a critical time for our students. The Old Members’ Office can assist you with your visit: call 01865 279214 or email oldmembers@queens.ox.ac.uk. If you require level access, please telephone the Lodge on 01865 279120. Degree ceremonies MAs can be taken by BA and BFA graduates 21 terms after their matriculation date. Usually, Old Members can choose to attend a University degree ceremony or receive an MA in absentia, but in-person conferrals are currently not possible. To take your MA in absentia, or to enquire about dates for future ceremonies, please email college.office@queens.ox.ac.uk. 148 The Queen’s College | College Record 2020

Overnight stays and guest rooms We are pleased to be able to offer overnight stays in College for Old Members and accompanying guests. Rooms are en suite and are clean, comfortable and serviced daily. While not equipped to a four-star hotel standard, they are provided with towels, toiletries, tea and coffee making facilities, and free internet access. Breakfast in Hall is included. We have two rooms specifically designated for use by Old Members, which can be booked all year round, when the College is open: one twin room in Back Quad and a single room in Drawda. Please note that the single room can only be accessed via a steep staircase and is not en suite – bathroom facilities are available along the corridor. These rooms can be booked by contacting the Old Members’ Office directly (oldmembers@queens.ox.ac.uk or 01865 279217). Payment will be made by invoice on departure and the Old Members’ Office can advise you on current rates. In addition, we can also offer en suite student bedrooms over the Easter and summer vacations, when rooms are not in use by conference guests. These can be booked directly via the Conference Office website www.queens.ox.ac.uk/bed-breakfast. Payment for these rooms is taken up front. We do offer a discounted rate for Old Members. Please contact the Old Members’ Office for the discount code prior to booking. College Record 2020 | The Queen’s College 149
