A newsletter from 31 Jan 2002 showing an image of Sir Menzies Campbell receiving an honorary degree.
We are saddened to hear of the death of Sir Menzies Campbell. An alumnus of the University, he served as President of the Liberal Club and the Glasgow University Union, and was awarded an honorary doctorate in 2001.
