| Administrative History | Rag events are comic and unruly public events traditionally organised by students of colleges and universities in the United Kingdom, usually with the aim of raising funds for charitable causes. At Battersea, Rags are believed to have been organised since at least 1919, and usually focused around an annual 'Rag Week'. Other events associated with Rags at Battersea include the annual 'Head of the Lake' contest on Battersea Park Boating Lake. |
