EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print captured on 28th February 1973, a large group of Durham University students can be seen participating in a hilarious and drenching multi-legged race. The event was organized as part of the university's annual Rag Week festivities, which aimed to raise funds for charity while providing an opportunity for students to unwind and have some fun. The image showcases a mixed age range of students eagerly racing towards the finish line, their legs tightly bound together in pairs. Laughter and excitement fill the air as water splashes around them, leaving everyone thoroughly soaked from head to toe. It is evident that these young scholars embraced the spirit of camaraderie and adventure during this memorable event. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the carefree nature of university life in the 1970s. With its vibrant colors and candid expressions, it transports us back to a time when education was not just about books but also about fostering friendships and creating lasting memories. As we admire this charming piece from Memory Lane Prints by NCJ, let us celebrate the joyous moments that make up our educational journeys. May it serve as a reminder that even amidst academic pursuits, there is always room for humor, lightheartedness, and giving back to society through events like Rag Week – where laughter meets charity with an abundance of water-soaked merriment!
