Professorial inaugural showcase

18 November 2025

Last week, the Philosophy Department and the wider academic community gathered to celebrate our four newest professors, who presented a showcase of inaugural talks on Wednesday 12 November in the Buchanan Lecture Theatre.

Professors Cotnoir, Prosser, Pummer, and Restall offered inspiring insights into their philosophical projects, before an audience including the Principal, Vice Principal (Research, Collections and Innovation), Assistant Vice-Principal (Dean of Arts and Divinity), and Master of the United College, as well as colleagues and members of the public.

Congratulations to all four professors - you did us proud!
