Girls into Geoscience! So many famous geoscientists are women. University of Plymouth takes young women from schools into the field to see what geology really is. Introduced to female leaders who did geology degrees. Don’t have to have beard and woolly jumper to be a geologist.

I’m at International Women’s Day event in Plymouth. Laura Harris from University of Plymouth is on stage giving an inspirational speech on the university’s women’s network and how she has benefitted from meeting peers and getting advice…and of course inspiring others!

Congratulations to the Edinburgh University ice carving team, including Fraser my eldest (far left), who have been in Harbin (China) all of this week at the international 2025 Ice Festival. BTW it’s a carving of The Kelpies.

On 13 Nov 1967, Newcastle University made history as the only UK university to award Dr Martin Luther King Jr an honorary degree during his lifetime. His visit was a powerful moment of unity and inspiration. Were you a student then? Share your memories below! 👇 #Martinlutherking
