Founding St Catherine's College in the 1960s required extensive appeals to industry to secure adequate funding to build and endow the new College.
Our list of founding benefactors represents a rich tapestry of British manufacturing, and is a reminder of the booming condition of the 1960s economy. Fifty years on, and our economy, along with those of the Eurozone nations, is looking less robust. Part of a series celebrating 50 years of St Catherine's College.
