Discover Black History Month at St Peter's College:

William ‘Bill’ Thomas, Jr. (1917-2010) became only the second African American to graduate from Oxford, and the first to be awarded a double Blue for his sporting achievements.

In Hilary term 1946, Thomas first matriculated at St Peter’s as part of a group of fifteen American students, in a scheme that allowed American servicemen to take part in University classes for a single term. During this short time, Thomas read PPE and was awarded his first full Blue for his performance in high hurdles at the Oxford University Athletics Cup, representing St Peter's Hall.

After completing his military service, Thomas returned to St Peter’s in 1949 to complete his degree in PPE. He earned his second Blue in the athletics event of discus. After graduating in 1952, Thomas returned to America to lecture in Economics at Fisk University, a historically Black university, and later led a successful business career in Houston, playing a key role in the creation of Houston’s first Black-owned bank in Texas.

That last piece of advice though... 🥲
Our students (and staff!) are looking forward to welcoming our Freshers on Sunday! A few student helpers shared some wise advice for Freshers' Week. What advice would you give?

'Don't be afraid to ask questions.'
'Sit with someone you don't know, you just might make a new friend!'
'Take your time to settle in, everyone goes at their own pace.'
