Oxford and Cambridge are possibly the two most famous universities in the world. They have so much in common that one word is often used for both of them: Oxbridge. Both universities are very old. Oxford is the second oldest in the world. Students have been going to classes there since 1096 or earlier! Cambridge is not quite as old. In 1209 some students from Oxford had to escape from angry townspeople. They went to Cambridge and started a new university. It is not known why the townspeople were angry. Maybe the students hadn't paid their bills! Oxford is 82 kilometres to the north-west of London, Cambridge 79 kilometres to the north-east. Both towns are on flat ground next to slow rivers, good country for cycling and rowing boats. They both have beautiful historic buildings including world-famous museums and libraries. Oxford University has 102 libraries, Cambridge has 114! The Bodleian Libraries at Oxford have 11 million books on 190 kilometres of bookshelves. Oxbridge has a reputation of being posh. Only 7 percent of pupils in the UK attend private fee-paying schools. But 43 percent Oxbridge undergraduates come from those schools. Each university has about 12.000 undergraduates. However, it is not easy to get a place at Oxbridge. There are five times more candidates than places so even if you pass your school exams with top marks, there's no guarantee you'II be accepted. You must first show your motivation and ability to think independently in an interview. At Oxbridge, as at other universities, there are lectures with large groups of students. However, there are also frequent small group discussions or 'tutorials' in which as few as one or two students discuss their work with a professor or PhD student. It's hard to say if one university is better than the other. Both Oxford and Cambridge have excellent academic results and are usually considered to be in the top five universities in the world. Oxbridge graduates have won over 100 Nobel Prizes. Cambridge has particularly high academic standards im Mathematics and Physics. The first computing course in the world was taught there. Thanks to Cambridge graduates we have Newton's theory of gravity, Darwin's theory of evolution, the nuclear bomb and the discovery of the structure of DNA! Oxford, on the other hand, has given us the creators of Alice in Wonderland, The Lord of the Rings, Mr Bean and the Internet! And finally there is the Boat Race. Every year two teams of eight rowers race over 6.8 kilometres on the river Thames in London. The first race was in 1829 Oxford won easily. But by 2012 Cambridge had won 81 times and Oxford only 76. Language and Culture College The word college has a number of different meanings in English. It can be an institution of higher education with a lower status than a university (like iszkola wyiszat or skolegium' in Polish) or it can be a place where students are trained for a specific job, e. g. a secretarial or agricultural college. A community college runs courses for adults who want to learns some skills, such as how to create a And a sixth-form college is a secondary school for preparing to take A-levels. But at Oxford and Cambridge, colleges are in parts of the university, located in separate, often buildings.
