The autumn telephone fundraising appeal for the Rector's Scholarship Fund kicked off on 29 October. President and Rector Sir Keith O'Nions visited the call room on 13 November as pledges from alumni donors edged the appeal over the £100,000 mark. Congratulating the callers, Sir Keith said he admired the generosity they showed in bringing the next generation of excellent students to the College. Recalling his own visit to Singapore just a week earlier, he said he hoped he was doing his part to raise awareness for the Rector's Scholarship Fund with alumni overseas. Student callers update alumni with news and events at the College, as well as asking them to make a gift to the Rector's Scholarship Fund. For the first time, calling is taking place in the Alumni Office increasing capacity to 20 callers per shift for a total of six weeks. Students from all subjects and level of study are taking part, calling alumni in the UK, Europe, USA and South Africa.
