The end of the year

Posted on 19th September 2012

Awards Day was a while ago now (7 July) but the MA students have been working hard all summer so we saved the blog celebration for now. We started the day off with the usual speeches, diplomas, and awards, then opened up the workshops for everyone to see the objects we treated in person. You might recognize some of them in these photos!

Some students will be coming back next year for the second part of their program; others have finished and dispersed. We'll be inviting alumni back to update us on what they're doing with their new degrees, so hopefully this won't be the last you'll hear from them. And hey, if you're interested in offering someone a job, you know where to find us!

As for this blog, it will be back after a brief vacation when the new academic year starts in the beginning of October.
