Entertainment. Welfare. College. In Cambridge, you know something is important because it comes with its own committee. Features / NHS at 75 The NHS treats more than a million patients a day but, at 75 years old, it’s never been under more pressure. So, is it still fit for purpose? And what will the next 75 years bring? Student life / Yma o Hyd! They’re still here: the Cambridge Welsh Society has been offering a taste of home for exiles – and others – since 1887. Brainwaves / It’s in the water: how to solve our planet’s biggest challenges Professor Angelos Michaelides is on a quest to understand water in all its forms. My room, your room / Okechukwu Nzelu: Great Hall, Girton The award-winning writer Okechukwu Nzelu meets Aiseosa Eweka-Okera to celebrate Girton’s splendid isolation and the joy of bringing people together. News / Campendium: Easter Term 2023 Super memorisers, sequencing Beethoven’s DNA and a visit from The King.

Features / A Vice-Chancellor’s life A £2bn turnover. Global reach. More than 30,000 brilliant – and independent – thinkers. And a governing system that has evolved over 800 years. As new Vice-Chancellor Professor Deborah Prentice takes up the reins, we ask: what does it really take to lead one of the greatest universities in the world? Features / All in the best possible taste? When is it OK to laugh? Who gets to make the jokes? When is enough? What is never funny? Modern comedy might tussle with what is and isn’t appropriate, but it’s got nothing on the 18th-century Great Laughter Debate. Features / CAM presents: Emergency Education on Ireland British ignorance of Irish history and politics is legendary (it’s a topic of academic study and Taoiseach Leo Varadkar even commented on it in public). Indeed, phrases such as the ‘Irish’ question and ‘Irish’ borders bizarrely leave out any suggestion of British involvement. So, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, CAM delivers a piece of emergency education, asking leading Cambridge experts to give us their views on the issues that matter.
