Oxford University's most international graduate college[edit]

I have removed a sentence from the lead "The college is also Oxford University's most international and interdisciplinary graduate college, with students from 75 nationalities enrolled in masters and doctoral programs."^[1]

This claim was made in a 2011 article on Oxford Royale's website, quoting the then college president, so it is not independently sourced and is likely to be out of date.TSventon (talk) 14:05, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

past tense?[edit]

These two sentences are in the past test. I didn't change this in the text as I know nothing about the college, 'Wolfson had approximately 800 graduate students, many of whom were DPhil students. The remainder were studying for MPhil, MSc, MSc by Research, MSt, MSt by Research, MBA, EMBA, MLitt, MLitt by Research, BPhil, and Cert degrees.' Foxdown (talk) 08:57, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Presidents[edit]

The College has had more than the three listed. The article doesn't mention Dame Hermione Lee, who did much of the rebuilding of the College and founded the Life Writing Centre. Nor is there mention of Sir Henry Fisher, who succeeded Sir Isaiah Berlin and played an important role in those early years. Gottlob Frege (talk) 17:44, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
