On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In September 2019, Balliol College began to investigate its connections with the proceeds of slavery as part of a broader project examining the College’s multifaceted relationship to Empire. Though better known for its role as an educator of colonial administrators in the late nineteenth century, this project has established that the college has ties with earlier periods of British colonialism and received benefactions from a number of individuals who derived a significant proportion of their wealth from slavery. Chaired by Dame Helen Ghosh, Master of Balliol, this seminar will present the preliminary results of the study conducted by Dr Sebastian Raj Pender and encourage discussion among participants on what these findings mean for the College, the University, and society today.
