Talk:Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics

Before I say something stupid, wasn't Roger Penrose also Rouse Ball Professor (1973-1998)? JFW | T@lk  16:16, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

Both Oxford & Cambridge have Rouse Ball Professors of Mathematics?
Nigel Hitchin is Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics, Cambridge University, from 1994 to 1997 ; Roger Penrose is Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics, University of Oxford, from 1973, becoming Emeritus Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics in 1998 , see also the dust jacket of his book _The Road to Reality_.
