An appeal has been launched for memories from students of the former Oxford Polytechnic and the College of Technology.

In 2015, Oxford Brookes, which is proud of its roots in the Polytechnic and the College of Technology, celebrates its 150-year anniversary.

A spokesman for Oxford Brookes said: “We believe the celebrations should include and involve all alumni, whether you studied at the College of Technology, Oxford Polytechnic, Dorset House, Lady Spencer-Churchill, Westminster, Oxford City Technical School or the university itself.

“To achieve this, we are appealing for memories from all former students of all our past institutions. By sharing your anecdotes and photos with the Alumni Office you can help to illustrate the shared history of the entire Oxford Brookes community, and make 2015 an unforgettable celebration for everyone.

“We are especially keen to hear from alumni with personal memories of John Henry Brookes for a biography celebrating the life of the university’s spiritual founder.”

Email memories and photos to alumni@brookes.ac.uk.
