    We are very sad to share the news that Emeritus Professor Peter Sinclair, from our Department of Economics, has died from COVID-19. Peter was a truly inspirational man, a popular lecturer and much-loved colleague. We offer our sincere condolences to Peter's family.

    We're delighted to announce that as part of a major upgrade of our clock tower we plan to modernise the clock face and make it digital. The famous ‘bongs’ will remain but will instead be a recording. We will of course be consulting with staff & students so welcome your thoughts

    One of our students - Ben Sassoon from Computer Science - has created a website to calculate how long your loo roll will last! It's being used by people all around the world and helps encourage us to only buy what we need. Well done Ben! ❤️ 🧻 howmuchtoiletpaper.com #panicbuying
