Alumni Weekend 2010

Advance booking for the 2010 Alumni Weekend is now closed. However it is not too late for your chance to rediscover a Cambridge buzzing with energy and excitement. You still have the option of booking and paying on the day by visiting our helpdesk during the weekend (at the University Centre on Friday and Sunday or at the Law Faculty on Saturday). Please note that places for certain events may be limited. For more information see this page


New 2010 Onoto Fountain Pen
New 2010 Onoto Pens are now available. What better way to mark a significant event than with a magnificent Onoto pen which bears the University of Cambridge shield on the top of the pen cap and, optionally, the shield of your college in full colour, embedded into the end of the barrel. All pens have the words 'University of Cambridge 2010' engraved around a sterling silver band plated in 23ct gold on the cap. Options include gold plated, silver and black acrylic. To order or for more information please see here.

Service Interruption [Resolved]
Posted 17:17 27-Jul 2010
[15:15] The mail servers are in the process of being rebooted to solve the current service issue (15:00 onwards)
We should have the service restored shortly.
[15:30] Interruption still ongoing, mail clients are able to connect/retrieve email however webmail is offline.
[16:00] One of the storage servers has been found to be unresponsive.
[16:10] If you visited the site between 16:10 and 16:50 you would have reached a holding page. We purposely took the websites offline to reduce the load on the mail servers whilst the problematic storage server was fixed.
[16:50] Service fully online.
