Digital postcard

As the 50th anniversary year since the reconstitution of St Leonard’s College is reaching its end, we are thrilled to share a special digital postcard video titled “For all time” with all our postgraduate students, alumni and staff.

“For all time” was commissioned by St Leonard’s College to mark 50 years since our reconstitution as a postgraduate college in November 1974. It was composed by Peter Johnstone, a former Young Scottish Jazz Musician of the Year, and part of the first cohort to graduate from the Royal Conservatoire Scotland Graduate Jazz Course, who is currently completing his doctoral degree. Since 2000, the University of St Andrews has awarded and validated research degrees made by the RCS. 

The track, performed beautifully by current staff and students from the University of St Andrews and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, celebrates not only the 50th anniversary of St Leonard’s College but also the enduring partnership between our institutions. It was recorded by the talented staff and students from the Fife College School of Business, Digital and Creatives; Department of Creative Media Productions Recording Studios in Glenrothes.

We hope this video brings back fond memories of postgraduate study at the University of St Andrews, and inspires you as we look forward to the future. Thank you for being a part of our journey!

Watch the video and celebrate with us!
