40 Years of Women at Mansfield

The academic year of 2019 - 2020 marks 40 years of mixed-gender cohorts at Mansfield. 2020 also marks the centenary of women's right to matriculate and to graduate: to become, in other words, full members of the University of Oxford.

 

To celebrate these important anniversaries, we are looking back at Mansfield's women's history.
