Ceri Peach is a geographer from Bridgend, Wales. He was an undergraduate (BA 1961), graduate student (D. Phil, 1964) and lecturer at Merton College, Oxford〔http://diversity.psy.ox.ac.uk/research-team/ceri-peach/ Retrieved 1 January 2011〕 before being appointed to a lectureship in Geography at St Catherine's College, Oxford (known colloquially as St Catz) in 1965 at the age of 26.〔St. Catherine's College: The Ceri Peach Trust Fund, St Catherine’s College Development Office, 2007〕 He held this post jointly with a lectureship at Keble College, Oxford and a Faculty Lectureship at the University of Oxford.〔St Catherine's College Year, 2007; St Catherine's College Development Office, 2007〕 He was elected a tutorial fellow in geography at St Catz in 1969〔 and also held various non-teaching posts, including several college offices: Domestic Bursar, Senior Tutor, Finance Bursar and Acting Master. During his tenure as Senior Tutor, women were first admitted to the college. As Domestic Bursar, he negotiated college charges with the then Junior Common Room President, Peter Mandelson.〔 He was Professor of Social geography at the School of Geography and the Environment at Oxford University from 1992 to 2007 and on retirement from his Oxford chair he was appointed Professor of at the Institute for Social Change at Manchester University.〔 In 2007 he was made an emeritus fellow at St Catz.〔 ==Time at St Catherine's College== Ceri Peach found the move from Merton, Oxford's oldest college, to St Catz, Oxfords newest college, to be liberating: “When I arrived, Catz was still being built, the yew hedges in the quad were only knee-high, the Fellows were newly appointed and the drive was underway to make the college great."〔 During his time at St Catz the number of undergraduate geographers accepted by the college increased from 4 each year to between 10 and 12. The University Schools results also became some of the best in the arts subjects at the college.〔 Notable students taught by Ceri Peach include Denis Cosgrove, who went on to become Alexander von Humboldt Professor of Geography at University of California, Los Angeles; Mike Walker and Geoff Duller, who went on to become professors of geography at the University of Wales; Mike Summerfield, Professor of Physical Geography at Edinburgh University; Vaughan Robinson, professor at King's College London; Michael Keith, professor of sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London; Gary Bridge, professor at Bristol University and Margaret Byron, professor at King's College London.〔 Other graduates in geography taught by Ceri Peach at St Catz have achieved success in other fields and include Matthew Pinsent, who received four gold medals for rowing in successive Olympic Games.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ceri Peach」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
