Dear Rhodes Scholars and McCloy Fellows, 

we kindly invite you to a shared event in Cologne, Germany, for a dinner and an optional city tour —a fantastic opportunity to reconnect and meet new folks.

📍 City Tour: TimeRide Cologne offers city tours aided by virtual reality elements that let you travel into the past and explore the historic events that took place along the tour's stops. Please express your interest to participate in a private tour at 4:30pm on March 29th, 2025. Since this is a self-funded event, we anticipate a charge of ~40 EUR per person. 

🍽️ Dinner: Belgischer Hof in Cologne offers modern french cuisine with plenty of classical and vegetarian choices. Feel free to join us after the tour for dinner at 6:30pm.

🌟 Food for thought: We have two wonderful communities of diverse and interesting people - if any of you would like to share a bit about a topic that you are passionate about or currently working on, we would be keen to integrate some food for thought during dinner.

Do let us know by 23rd February if you’ll be joining by signing up below. In case of any questions, please reach out to Carolin Kroeger (Rhodes) under +49 1573 4689 308 and Christian Ruckteschler (McCloy) under +49 1523 7183374. 

We're excited to pilot this new event format with you and to see you there! 🎉
