I’m a first-year medic on the graduate-entry course here at Lucy Cavendish. I came to Cambridge after completing my undergraduate degree in Chemistry at Oxford. Whilst I knew a little of what to expect in the way of the university’s collegiate system, starting out on another undergraduate degree in a completely new subject area was rather daunting at first. I applied to Lucy because it came across as both a welcoming and supportive learning environment, as well as a friendly place in which to live. Having grown up in Oxford too, this was my first time really moving away from my family and Lucy very quickly became the perfect home away from home. The light and airy college library is one of my favourite places in which to work and I really enjoy catching up with other students over lunch in Hall, after a busy morning of lectures in the department. I know that I’ve made some fantastic friends in the other medics at Lucy. In between lectures, supervisions and hospital placements, we spend a lot of time together. We look out for each other too, whether that’s getting together for a group study session in the library or a movie night in the lounge. Beyond college, I'm also involved with the university’s cross-country club, the Hare and Hounds, which has been a great way to explore some of the beautiful surrounding Cambridgeshire countryside.

I come from Lithuania. I went to high school in Italy and I did my undergraduate degree in Edinburgh. Lucy Cavendish College is my third home away from home. Studying Medicine in Cambridge is the most challenging experience of my life. However, living in Lucy Cavendish College creates many opportunities to make the work-life balance approachable. Rowing for Lucy Cavendish Boat Club makes me forget about the academic challenges in a healthy and fun way for several hours a week. And the rowing family is incredibly supportive and friendly. The library staff make sure we get some coffee, tea and biscuit fuelled study breaks and the guinea pigs are there for some pet therapy! The people you meet in College soon become your family who would do anything for you. After I graduate Medicine I will be a doctor in the NHS. However, the College provides support and guidance for those who would like to seek alternative careers.

Since 1981 Dr Webster has been self-employed as an itinerant pedagogue teaching a range of biological and biochemical subjects to a variety of students at a range of educational establishments.

He has taught A level Biology, firstly at some Cambridge private colleges e.g.C.C.S.S. and then for about 20 years at Hills' Road Sixth Form College. He was also a part-time Open University tutor/associate lecturer on 2nd and 3rd level courses and demonstrator, tutor, senior tutor and course director at O.U. Summer Schools for almost 30 years. 

Dr Webster is now retired from all but the supervising which he still does for Clare, Christ's, Robinson, St. Edmund's, Sidney Sussex and Lucy Cavendish so he is now in his 46th continuous year as a supervisor. Dr Webster has been supervising the single medic Lucy Cavendish then admitted (in what was a total intake in all subjects of 17) since about 1981 or thereabouts, and has continued to do so ever since (not forgetting the vets who came on board soon after).
