On Friday 12 June Bill and Melinda Gates came to Cambridge to collect their honorary degrees. A video of the ceremony is available here.
Before the degree ceremony Bill and Melinda generously spent two and a half hours at Wolfson College meeting Gates Scholars and taking their questions.
An article about the Wolfson event is available from the University’s news page and photos are available from the Gates Cambridge Trust’s Flickr page.
A film of the Q&A session will also be available shortly.
