Honorary M.Sc
Revd Ron Lancaster has been made an honorary M.Sc at the Science Congregation at Durham University where Bill Bryson is the present Chancellor. As the Chairman and founder of Kimbolton Fireworks, Ron is the author of the main text book of firework manufacture, recognised throughout the world and now in its fourth edition.
There were several degree congregations last week but at this one over 300 young scientists received their degrees in a packed Cathedral. It was interesting because Ron Lancaster entered the University in 1950 to read Chemistry but having decided to be ordained in the Church of England studied Humanities degrees, but spent much of his life as a School Chaplain teaching divinity and chemistry !
