Dear members of the community, chers collègues,
Please join me in wishing Ann Saddlemyer a very happy birthday. Ann was the first female Senior Fellow at Massey College and the first female head of college. I owe a lot to her trailblazing efforts. I had the opportunity to meet with and hear about her time at Massey. You can watch our conversation here.
