SUPPORTING ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE<br />

Reta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g key teach<strong>in</strong>g posts is one of the College’s ongo<strong>in</strong>g priorities, and<br />

this entails considerable costs which the College must meet each year.<br />

Permanently-endowed Tutorial <strong>Fellowship</strong>s provide security for the future of<br />

the tutorial system which lies at the heart of the academic excellence and<br />

overall student experience at Queen’s.<br />

The power of regular giv<strong>in</strong>g<br />

We hope many more of our <strong>History</strong> & Jo<strong>in</strong>t Schools Old Members will jo<strong>in</strong><br />

those already support<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>Prestwich</strong> <strong>Fellowship</strong> Fund, by mak<strong>in</strong>g a<br />

regular (recurr<strong>in</strong>g) gift to this special appeal. Regular giv<strong>in</strong>g is at the core<br />

of the tradition of giv<strong>in</strong>g back that connects current students with Queen’s<br />

Old Members of every generation. Regular gifts really add up! Every gift<br />

makes a difference – we can do this together.<br />

“<strong>History</strong> students at Queen’s benefit<br />

from <strong>in</strong>teractive and stimulat<strong>in</strong>g tutorials,<br />

which allow for a level of critical th<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and analysis that enables students<br />

to become <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>gly confident <strong>in</strong><br />

their work and ideas. But there are<br />

also so many opportunities at College<br />

to socialise with a close-knit group of<br />

historians. Now f<strong>in</strong>ish<strong>in</strong>g my f<strong>in</strong>al year,<br />

Queen’s has pushed me to exceed my<br />

own academic expectations, and shown<br />

me the difference a supportive and<br />

varied cohort can make to a student’s<br />

learn<strong>in</strong>g experience.”<br />
