The University of Edinburgh Graduates’ Association is an organisation sponsored by the University of Edinburgh, which acts as a means of communication between the University and its alumni, and between alumni themselves, wherever they may be in the world. It does this by publishing the University of Edinburgh Journal twice a year. The Journal acts as a platform for alumni to publish serious articles and creative work for the University community to enjoy. The Association also offers a programme of attractive events including lunches with guest speakers, our Annual Reception and Buffet with a guest speaker or special entertainment, our biennial St Andrews Night Dinner, and many more.
Founded in the wake of the First World War, the University of Edinburgh Graduates’ Association has recently published a special Commemorative Issue of its 90-year old University of Edinburgh Journal and, as a special supplement published by the Association and the University, the Roll of Honour 1939-1945 which remembers and honours the members of the University who died by enemy action during the Second World War.
The Graduates’ Association invites you most warmly to subscribe to the Journal and, by so doing, to become a member of the Association. New subscribers applying before 30 September will receive copies of these publications as part of their subscriptions.
The Journal itself is produced in June and December each year, in printed and in digital formats, and is sent to all members of the Association as part of their subscription. Its 46 completed volumes have become an indispensable archive on the University, its life and history; they may be consulted in the University Library, and will soon be accessible online in a searchable digital format as part of membership subscription; the digitisation process is well under way. By becoming a subscriber and a member of the Association, you will be helping us to continue this work.
Subscriptions range from £28.00 for annual membership and a printed copy of the Journal, to £10.00 annually for fully electronic membership. If you are interested in becoming a member of the University of Edinburgh Graduates’ Association and in receiving the University of Edinburgh Journal, please contact the Assistant Editor of the Journal, Mr John Sutherland at gradassoc@ed.ac.uk.
