Another great video ! As nice as some of the more modern rooms are, I think I would actually prefer the older buildings just to get the full classic Oxford experience.

Thanks for this video/vlog that let me learn more about some different types and designs of rooms at Oxford. Some designs are my favourite, especially upstairs and bookshelves on the ceilings. As an International A Level student, I am watching this to learn more about the universities I want to go to, including accommodation, design and infrastructure.

Random every year and everyone pays same too!
I look at the Oxford and I think that universities tear young people away from reality, and that it is impossible to return to reality after university illusions. As a result, few people in the world are capable of solving the problems that have accumulated before humanity. The best teacher is life itself. Philosophers, historians, lawyers and journalists must work in seven different businesses, communicate with a wide range of people and learn a living and practical psychology. Academic psychology is only suitable for intellectual narcissists to entertain their peers over cups of coffee. A practicing intellectual person does not need forty subjects studied in universities, but much less. So you need to come to the university once a year for a week or two not only to take a small number of exams (one exam per year), but above all to communicate with intelligent people who help to systematize the experience gained during discussions. . It is necessary to implement the principle of Socrates: it is not necessary to put ready-made theories in a person's brain, but to let theories be born in his brain. So we do not need conferences, but debates on questions from real life. And to have food for discussion, you have to immerse yourself in real life, and not be in an artificial university environm.

This is a bit disappointing. I thought the bedrooms would be like in the Harry Potter films.
10:30 when you said that they give the good rooms to postgrads I laughed because it’s pretty much always the exact opposite 🥲 postgrads get the crap off site accomm far away from the college usually!

@@Sam.Kramer You obviously don't get my point. An academic institution of that prestige must make sure they offer a top-quality life to its students. It involves everything, residences, healthcare, resource access, etc. College life is not just about courses and research. We are talking about Oxford here, not some peripherical university.
