Louise Richardson wa nominated for the university’s most senior
office.

chancellor of St Andrews University, is an expert on the growth of
terrorist movements.
She held a succession of high-profile positions at Harvard until she
was appointed to lead St Andrews in 2009.
Students and staff hailed the nomination as a
momentous event in Oxford’s history. Richardson, 56, told the
Guardian she hoped her nomination would inspire current and
potential female undergraduates. (UK Guardian)
