EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by NCJ from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Durham University in 1973. The image captures a thrilling moment during the Grand Raft Race for Rag Week, as enthusiastic students take to the glistening waters of River Wear. A large group of participants, representing a mixed age range and brimming with youthful energy, can be seen aboard their creatively crafted rafts. Laughter and excitement fill the air as they navigate through the river's currents, showcasing both their competitive spirit and camaraderie. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the essence of university life in the 1970s - a time when education was not solely confined within lecture halls but extended into engaging extracurricular activities like rag week events. With its blend of humour and fun, this race served as an opportunity for students to come together while supporting charitable causes. As we gaze upon this timeless scene, it serves as a reminder that education is not just about textbooks and exams; it is also about fostering friendships, creating lasting memories, and giving back to society. This photograph beautifully captures those cherished moments that define our university experiences - moments filled with laughter, adventure, and a shared sense of purpose. So let us celebrate these spirited individuals who dared to embark on this watery challenge all those years ago – forever etching themselves into Durham University's rich history.
