This is not (necessarily) an opportunity to toot our university’s horn, but a chance to demonstrate that some pretty excellent scholars have come out of Durham (as either undergrads or postgrads):
Did you know that Durham has produced:
Simon Gathercole
Bruce Longenecker
Stephen Finlan (now at Drew)
Helen Bond
Paul Trebilco
Maurice Casey
Ben Witherington III
Judith Lieu (for her MA)
So far just a short list. Can anyone think of others who have some recognition in academia? OT people as well?
Hi,
I have recently been accepted by Durham to been PhD with John Barclay in Oct. I am writing to concerning te college system. Following the advice of Ben Blackwell I applied to St. John’s college, but I do have a few questions.
I’m not sure which college you are in, but from your perspective does the housing options of Ustinov create a context in which it is easier to find and establish community?
My wife and, as of today, one month old son, will be joining me and I simply want to ensure that I don’t leave them isolated by renting a home in town.
Any thoughts you have on this matter would be appreciated.
