Congratulations to Markus Gehring, who was elected Senior Proctor at the University of Cambridge Regent House yesterday. The nomination is for three years (one Pro-Proctor year which he has just served, one Senior Proctor year, followed by a Deputy Proctor year) and we are delighted for our Fellow and former Praelector; the first Hughesian in the job! This is an important role, both ceremonially and procedurally, and another part of the growing – and inspiring – story of Hughes Hall. Congratulations Markus!
