We have been looking back at our history and at the early years of women at Grey. It is 40 years since our first female intake and Grey women have had fun, and made a big impact!
If you recognise any of these women or would like to share your stories of the early days following the first female intake in 1984, we would love to hear from you at grey.alumni@durham.ac.uk. We are still researching the lore around the greasy pole!
We have enjoyed reading your messages to date and will be interviewing alumni, creating an informal history of Women at Grey and reconnecting with more of our female alumni.
From one of the very first intake:
"I remember us all walking into the dining room on our first evening. It suddenly went absolutely silent!
Nobody had warned the boys that we had moved in to stay!"
