Today marks the start of #BlackHistoryMonth and we wanted to start it off by telling you a bit about UofG alumnus James McCune Smith - the first African American to be awarded a medical degree anywhere in the world #UofGBHM20
James McCune Smith was born into slavery in 1813 in New York City. Despite being intellectually brilliant, he was denied entry to American universities due to his race. So he came to Scotland to study at the University of Glasgow.
Dr Smith earned three degrees at UofG, returned to New York in 1837 to open his own medical practice and pharmacy (the first African American owned and operated pharmacy in America) and became a leading figure for black civil rights and the abolitionist movement.

Students in residences: thank for your patience and cooperation. We're doing our best to support you and wanted to provide another quick update here. Image
Yesterday @scotgov published new guidance around leaving halls of residence to return home, including both short visits and moving on a permanent basis.

As announced yesterday, we'll also be transferring £50 to students in our residence to encourage food deliveries from some of our city's fantastic local shops and restaurants. To claim this, please complete the steps detailed in the email you will have received this afternoon.
