Examination Fellowships 2022: Open Evening for Women

Friday, 11 March - 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.

Old Library, All Souls College

All Souls holds an exam every autumn for students who have recently graduated from, or are registered for a higher degree at, the University of Oxford. Candidates may choose to sit papers in Classics, Economics, English Literature, History, Law, Philosophy or Politics, and there is also a General component. The Fellowship lasts for seven years. Those elected receive a generous stipend, accommodation and career support, and may either choose to pursue an academic career, or to contribute to wider academic life while pursuing a non-academic career.

The Open Evening is an opportunity for interested women and non-binary people to learn about the Examination Fellowship – to find out more about the exam process, and to meet some members of the College.

All Souls is committed to attracting people from all backgrounds, and welcomes enquiries about the Examination Fellowship from anyone.

Further information is available here.

There is no Independent Central Bank

4th March 2022, 11:00 am

The lecture will consider the cases of the Federal Reserve Board, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England and the People’s Bank of China. It will examine the patchy record of the western Banks in controlling inflation and avoiding major downturns. It will consider political involvement through choice of Governors, intervention over interest rate changes, revision of inflation targets and supervision of Quantitative easing. It will examine influence over Central bankers by Parliaments, the media and public opinion, and the occasions when a Governor seems to be pursuing a political agenda through Central bank policy.

Please note that due to the ongoing pandemic, these lectures will be delivered in hybrid format. Capacity is restricted so please arrive early to avoid disappointment. If capacity is reached, attendees will be turned away.

For those attending in person, these lectures will take place in the Old Library, All Souls College, OX1 4AL (enter via the Lodge). Registrations close at 12 noon the day before the lecture. Please register using this form.
