Calendar of Events

In our May event, Katharine Wilkinson (Tennessee & Trinity 2006) will discuss her latest book, Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home.

An evening for Scholars considering professional futures in Africa after Oxford. In collaboration with AfOx and the Rhodes Trust’s Early Careers Launchpad, the event offers a peer-centred space to explore whether, when, and how to return. Featuring a panel discussion, a workshop on managing “squiggly” career paths, and networking opportunities throughout.

Visit Rhodes House and explore our artworks.

You are warmly invited to join us for a guided tour of the beautiful gardens of Rhodes House with our Head Gardener, Neil Wigfield.

The Rhodes Trust is thrilled to partner with the American Association of Rhodes Scholars (AARS) to host this event! This will be a great opportunity to connect casually with new and old friends who live in the Boston area and are working in healthcare.

We are pleased to invite you to Law School and Legal Careers: Paths, Preparation, and Possibilities, an informal conversation with Nick Allard (New York & Merton 1974), a leading figure in U.S. legal education.

As a Rhodes Scholar, you bring intellectual distinction and composure. This workshop helps you translate those strengths into clear, credible professional impact, demonstrating evidence, judgement, and confidence in interviews.

Africa is undergoing an astounding transformation that will usher in a new era of political volatility and experimentation in the coming years. The region is in the midst of a historically unprecedented demographic surge that has skewed the median age in most countries to below twenty years old. In our June event, Michelle Gavin (Arizona & Lincoln 1996) will discuss her latest book, The Age of Change: How Urban Youth Are Transforming African Politics.

In partnership with the Africa Oxford Initiative (AfOx), and as part of AfOx's 10th anniversary celebrations, the Rhodes Trust is thrilled to bring together African Rhodes Scholars from across generations to Oxford.
