AUTOBIOGRAPHY, ‘The story of how St Catherine's College, the only Oxford undergraduate college to be built since 1945, developed out of the earlier non-residential St Catherine's Society, is a remarkable one. The achievement was inspired by its Founding Master, historian Lord Bullock, who has seen St Catherine's become, over the 35 years of its existence, one of the largest Oxford colleges, providing places for some 430 undergraduates and 130 postgraduates. Creating St Catherine's College tells how the University was persuaded to back the plan for a new college, how the money to found and endow it was raised, and how Arne Jacobsen designed the buildings which are now recognised as an outstanding example of successful post-war architecture. While maintaining the conventional pattern of an Oxford college, the progressive outlook of St Catherine's has resulted in the establishment of an institution which successfully marries tradition and innovation. This book relates how it came about. The authors, Margaret and Derek Davies, have been closely associated with St Catherine's over many years. Derek Davies, who retired as the College's Law Fellow in 1996, was a member of the St Catherine's College Committee that brought the College into being. They have drawn on archival material, interviews with many of those involved with the creation of the College, and their own recollections, to produce this detailed and absorbing account of a unique achievement.'
