🎓 What should a university education prepare you for?
For Billy, a graduate student in Public Policy at Queen’s, the answer goes far beyond careers. From Tasmania to Oxford, he reflects on community, civic purpose, and why “the measure of a great university is ultimately the quality of human interaction it makes possible.”
In our latest student profile, Billy explores the conversations, friendships, and sense of shared responsibility that have shaped his time at Queen’s and Oxford, and why universities matter most when they challenge us to think deeply about the world and our place in it.

📚 At Queen’s, our Library staff don’t just look after books, they write them too.
Library Assistant Felix’s new book explores the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the secretive Victorian society that counted writers and artists including W. B. Yeats among its members.
In our latest blog, Felix reflects on why the occult captivated creative communities, the surprisingly progressive elements of the Order, and what its story can tell us today.
“The allure of magic would have been hard to resist.”

What makes the perfect cup of tea? 🫖
Queen’s DPhil student Melody is exploring that question through ‘sensory archaeology’, using taste, smell, and material culture to better understand the past.
Melody is bringing her research into the Ashmolean Museum through a series of tea-tasting sessions supported by a highly competitive Public and Community Engagement with Research grant.
🔗 We spoke to Melody about what happens when research moves beyond the library and into lived experience: ow.ly/2Vo650Z47M4
