The Leonard Wolfson Auditorium, which forms the centrepiece of the new development, was unveiled by College President Dame Hermione Lee at a naming ceremony attended by the Vice-Chancellor Andrew Hamilton, members of the College and the University, friends and well-wishers to the College, and members of the Wolfson Foundation, the College's chief benefactors.

We had a total of 6 boats racing this year, gaining a net total of 7 places. This year has shown that Wolves stay strong in the toughest of conditions, with wash-outs of Christ Church regatta, red flag throughout most of the winter, and the pack came out only stronger.

The Fournier Trio, ensemble-in-residence at Wolfson College since September 2011, have been awarded the prestigious Parkhouse Award 2013 which is presented biannually to chamber ensembles of piano and strings whose members have been performing together for at least two years. Previous winners have included the Fauré and Notos quartets, and the duo of violist Nils Mönkemeyer and pianist Nicholas Rimmer.

Geza Vermes was an expert in the history of Judaism in the early Roman empire whose prolific writings, particularly on the Jewish background of early Christianity and on the Dead Sea scrolls, have had a profound effect both among scholars and in the wider public.

The project, Your Paintings, is a joint initiative between the BBC and the Public Catalogue Foundation, and now contains over 211,000 paintings from around 3000 collections throughout the UK.

A new research cluster at Wolfson College will unlock the mysteries of the brain and shed light on recent breakthroughs in our understanding of the mind and aspects of human behaviour.

The trip, which coincides with the Vice-Chancellor Andrew Hamilton's tour of the region in April, sees Professor Lee and the College's Development Director William Conner visit leading universities in the region to encourage students to study at Wolfson and to take part in graduate exchanges with the College.

On 29 March, the President and Development Director will be joined by Dr James B. Lewis, Oxford University Lecturer in Korean History, at the Seoul Garden Hotel, where an alumni reception will be held from 6pm.

The Women's first VIII moved up two places to top of division 2, and just missed out on securing their place in division 1. The Women's second VIII also moved up two places, and are now top of division 4.  The Men's first VIII had a more difficult week in the top half of division 1, and put in a very strong performance each day, but unfortunately moved down two places. The Men's second VIII moved up five places across the four days, which was an excellent performance, and finally M3 were very successful moving up four places.
