FOR a group of fellows at Wolfson College, University of Cambridge, in the United Kingdom, breakfast is not just the first meal of the day; it is also an opportunity to exchange opinions and to learn from each other.From topics as diverse as funeral rituals to working styles, the discussions offer a space to debate, and even serve as a reminder that one should constantly read and keep updated on current issues and world affairs.
“There is a tradition here at Wolfson College, that the dining area is a neutral social space where you talk to everyone as equals, whether they are a student, professor, fellow or staff member,” said Wolfson Press Fellowship (WPF) programme director Prof John Naughton.
