A college of the University of Oxford, with a lively mix of undergraduate and postgraduate students. Affectionately known as Teddy Hall.

My old College @stedmundhall.bsky.social suggested I send a message to my fellow matriculants.

I initially thought it was a terrible idea.

My friends at @ox.ac.uk & I had a talent for causing authorities hysterical grief.

But perhaps the time has come for us to make amends.
