Cambridge degrees then and now: Day in the life of a mathmo
It’s common knowledge that all mathmos do is stare at equations and play dungeons and dragons, right? Rumour has always had it that they never leave their rooms and are allergic to the sun. Do these stereotypes have any truth to them? And if they do, has the institution of “the Cambridge mathmo” changed at all over the existence of the course? We interviewed current Mathmos at Girton and an alumnus to find out. Our alumnus, Neil Wadey, was a Maths undergraduate at Girton College from 1982-1985. He is now a Group Treasurer for a multinational company and lives in Kent, England.
