Spirits were high and the sun was shining as 39 Wolfson students graduated or celebrated the end of their studies on Saturday.

A group of students dressed in formal black attire with white shirts and ties stand closely together outdoors, appearing attentive at their ceremony. The focus is on a woman with curly hair in the centre, with others slightly blurred in the background.

The degrees being conferred and celebrated at Wolfson on 2 May were BA, MPhil, MSt, and PhD.

The students in this cohort represented ten different countries, including Canada, France, India, Hungary, China, and the UK.

Ahead of the ceremony, Praelector Dr David Goode staged a rehearsal in the Lee Hall to prepare the graduands and celebrants for the various stages of proceedings at Senate House. The graduands then assembled in front of the College gates for the photograph of the cohort, followed by the traditional procession to Senate House.

Congratulations graduates - we're all incredibly proud of you! Don't forget to check out your alumni benefits - you are a College member for life.
