Every year, the Collingwood Prize is presented at the Collingwood Banquet to an MCR student who has shown incredible academic achievement. The 2026 Collingwood Prize was jointly awarded to Effimia Panagiotaki (2021, DPhil Engineering Science) and Seda Öztürk (2021, DPhil Asian and Middle Eastern Studies). They shared with us more about their time at Pembroke and what being part of our MCR community means to them.
