st. hilda's history & guest night dinner....

On Wednesday, June 7th, St. Hilda’s College hosted our termly guest night dinner. It turned out to be a special day in the history of St. Hilda's, the last female-only college at Oxford, as it was the day that the fellows voted to admit men. The change will be taking place starting with the incoming class in 2007. We got to vote in the referrendum as well, and I voted for the change so was glad to see it pass!

For the guest night dinner, Bonnie and I managed to get about 30 MBAs to join us for the evening, so it was really pleasant. The evening was a typical British summer evening, starting with a fancy garden party (complete with men in straw boaters!!) where we drank champagne in the sun, which continued to a nice formal meal in the college hall, and concluding with Port in the MCR. A lovely evening.
