It is my pleasure to welcome you to March's edition of OpenMinds e-News. In this issue, we pay tribute to former OU Chancellor Baroness Betty Boothroyd (pictured), who has died at the age of 93.
We are delighted to invite you to two exclusive online events. On Tuesday 18 April, join us for a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the spectacular OU/BBC co-production, Wild Isles, followed by OpenMinds Live on Wednesday 26 April.
This OpenMinds e-News edition also highlights our new OU/BBC series showcasing remarkable Scottish women, presented by OU honorary graduate Kirsty Wark. We share good news from Dr Ayomide Oluseye who has received funding for new research with young mothers in Nigeria, and Dr Emily Swaby who has been awarded the prestigious Wollaston Fund by the Geological Society of London.
Finally, dive into an amazing online exhibition to celebrate 50 years of the OU Students Association.
Thank you again for being such a valued part of the OU family.
Best wishes Karen Hart Deputy Director of Development
