Traditionally a day when students would gather to survey the notice boards outside The Senate House to discover their exam results. Today that public forum has been superseded by a private message delivered to each students inbox. However, Cambridge is reluctant as always to let all tradition disappear so today, from early in the morning, celebration and/or commiseration is the order of the day. Not a little alcohol is involved. It’s a rare day when the students are allowed to picnic and party on the hallowed lawns of their college, normally the domain of only Fellows or Gardeners.
Sun was shining, the town was buzzing and with the end of term everyone appeared to be enjoying themselves.
