SUPPORTING ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE Retaining key teaching posts is one of the College’s ongoing priorities, and this entails considerable costs which the College must meet each year. Permanently-endowed Tutorial Fellowships provide security for the future of the tutorial system which lies at the heart of the academic excellence and overall student experience at Queen’s. The power of regular giving We hope many more of our History & Joint Schools Old Members will join those already supporting the Prestwich Fellowship Fund, by making a regular (recurring) gift to this special appeal. Regular giving is at the core of the tradition of giving back that connects current students with Queen’s Old Members of every generation. Regular gifts really add up! Every gift makes a difference – we can do this together. “History students at Queen’s benefit from interactive and stimulating tutorials, which allow for a level of critical thinking and analysis that enables students to become increasingly confident in their work and ideas. But there are also so many opportunities at College to socialise with a close-knit group of historians. Now finishing my final year, Queen’s has pushed me to exceed my own academic expectations, and shown me the difference a supportive and varied cohort can make to a student’s learning experience.” Chanté Price (History, 2020)
WE NEED YOUR HELP Queen’s has a long teaching tradition in History. There are currently two fulltime History Fellows. One of these fellowships – the Brittenden Fellowship – was fulled endowed in October 2020, thanks to a generous legacy from Fred H. Brittenden (Modern History, 1946). When the Prestwich Fellowship Fund launched in 2003, it was the first time Queen’s had ever turned to its Old Members to seek their support for History. Now the College seeks to secure the remaining funds. A second fully-endowed post will ensure the future of high-quality historical research and teaching at Queen’s for generations to come. The John Prestwich Fellowship Fund The cost to the College to endow this post is £3 million. Over £2.4 million has been raised in cash and pledges to date, since the Prestwich Fellowship Fund was created in 2003.
