Final call for @UCLAlumni, staff & others to share memories, stories, objects or archives for our book on #Student life in #London since 1826 @SamBlaxland. We’ve had an amazing response to date with new materials donated to @UCLSpecCol: ucl.ac.uk/news/2024/sep/…

Who were @ucl’s first Chinese students? In the latest #PorticoMagazine, @IOE_London's @ProfGinaB and Dr Jenny Bond reveal what they've learnt through the Generation UCL project about the first Chinese students who came to UCL. Find out more: bit.ly/3Y1jwzg

IOE’s Drama Studio has been renamed Punnett Hall in honour of Margaret Punnett, Vice-Principal of the London Day Training College (LDTC) from 1902-33. The LDTC was established in 1902 before becoming the Institute of Education in 1932. #WeAreIOE

The Gen UCL team @ProfGinaB & @SamBlaxland visited @School_Pharmacy archives yesterday to use its excellent collection of student publications & society minute books ahead of #WorldPharmacistsDay2024 & our final research push @UCLSpecColl @UCLAlumni ucl.ac.uk/news/2024/sep/…

@TheUnionUCL @jhjparker That’s an amazing picture. Love all the banners & kit. Most of the union group photos we have in @UCLSpecColl are much more staid. It would be wonderful to scan this for the archive.

@jhjparker Great photo! Something @ProfGinaB might be interested in...

@theunionucl during the sad duty of clearing my late sister's house I found this photo belonging to my father, William Duncan Parker (1919-94) (Chemistry at UCL 1938-40). He was a sprinter of some ability and I have marked where he managed to appear in the picture three times!
