  • Apologies for the rather dry style - this is a direct extract from a dissertation on SRI! Oxford University is the oldest higher education institution in the UK. It is also one of the wealthiest, with an endowment valued at £558 million as of July 31st 2005 (Oxford University 2006a), which is managed separately from the individual College investments. External fund managers are overseen by the Investments Committee, which reports to University Council, the University’s managing body. In essence, by accepting the proposal the University agreed to:

  • Oxford University is the smug, overachieving, infuriatingly self-satisfied but nonetheless irreproachable older sister of every other University in the world. As the saying goes, age comes before beauty. The university was founded shortly after the dawn of time as a joint venture between God and Oscar Wilde. Though thirty-nine colleges have been discovered to date, the university is generally viewed as Oxford's secondary asset when compared to the city's most internationally-recognised feature: the highest density of kebab vans in Britain.

abstract
  • The University of Oxford (informally "Oxford University"), located in the city of Oxford, England, is the oldest university in the English-speaking world. It is also regarded as one of the world's leading academic institutions. (The name is sometimes abbreviated as Oxon. in post-nominals, from the Latin "Oxoniensis".) The university traces its roots back to at least the end of the 11th century, although the exact date of foundation remains unclear. After a dispute between students and townsfolk broke out in 1209, some of the academics at Oxford fled north-east to the town of Cambridge, where the University of Cambridge was founded. The two universities have since had a long history of competition with each other (see Oxbridge rivalry).The University of Oxford is a member of the Russell Group of research-led British universities, the Coimbra Group (a network of leading European universities), the League of European Research Universities, and is also a core member of the Europaeum. Academically, Oxford is consistently ranked in the world's top ten universities.For more than a century, it has served as the home of the Rhodes Scholarship, which brings highly accomplished students from a number of countries to study at Oxford as postgraduates.
