My favorite memory of Cambridge is:

As a fresher, I alighted at the Cambridge bus station at midnight with luggage twice my size. After the longest 200 metres of my life, I checked in at the Porter's Lodge of Emma and was handed ague directions to my room. It happened to be in the North Court, which was next to the bus station! But this time, I had to go through a tunnel under the road!

Ryan Ebert
General Committee Member

My degree details are; MBA (exclusive), St. Catherine's College, 2021-2023

Occupation - CEO & Founder, Innings
Memory: My memory starts with my first formal dinner. The gown, the history, the PhD chemistry student to my left and the history undergraduate to my right. The latin, the curiosity and the expanding mind all boiled into one night, that I learnt would be a regular experience and part and parcel of the fortunate gift of attending Cambridge.

Favourite memory: Some of my favourite memories from my time in Cambridge are from formal dinners held throughout the year and at the May Balls. I felt very fortunate to be able to experience the history, tradition and sense of community of the formals and May Balls, which were a wonderful way to meet other students and academics, explore other Colleges and celebrate ( either the end of the week or the year!)
