c. 2002/3, c. 2003/4, c. 2008, 2009 [A glimpse.. not a full prospectus], 2010, undated [c.2013-2020]

There are also 4 editions of an informal prospectus for the years 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988. This was a typed leaflet providing information to prospective students whilst Cambridge Admissions were undergoing major reform. It was felt it was better to produce these rather than a glossy prospectus until the new arrangements were made known so it would not go rapidly out of date.

Includes a letter from T.E.B. Howarth [Senior Tutor and Tutor for Admissions] about G. Harper's suggestions about the prospectus, 25 May 1976.

The Master usually serves until reaching the statutory fellowship retirement age of 67. Exceptionally this period may be extended until the Master in question reaches 70 as occurred in the case of Duncan Robinson.
