Jeffrey: In all of the colleges,
friends are made easily. Students may go to pubs where they can talk and rest
over a mug of beer or a glass of gin. Students may also join various societies
and clubs such as tennis clubs, photographic clubs. If a student is interested
in history, he may join a Historical Society and sometimes go there to discuss
his work with other members. Ellis: At
the University of Oxford, students are provided with many courses which covers
mainstream subjects like History, Law, Mathematics and Chemistry to subjects
such. as Human Sciences, Archaeology and Anthropology. All courses have a core
element offering each student plenty of scope to follow his or her specific
areas of interest. All Oxford programs strive to encourage students to think
logically, laterally and independently. Andrew:
Each student is responsible for personal-time planning to ensure that all
the course work is completed. They meet their college tutor either on a
one-to-one basis or with one or two other students. The purpose of the tutorial
is to review answers and theories and to raise any new points that result from
the discussions. The success of the tutorial system relies on
the active exchange of ideas between the students, the tutor and other students
present. Philip: In order to have the
active exchange of ideas with tutors and other students, students have ready
access to some of the best laboratories, libraries, museums and other services
in the world. The principal university research library is the Bodleian, with
over 6 million volumes in its central and dependent libraries. The Bodleian is a
"copyright library" and can claim a copy of every book and periodical published
in the United Kingdom. The library itself comprises the central buildings and
numerous dependent libraries specializing in particular areas, including the
sciences and law. William: All university
members, whether they are studying for a language degree or not, can use the
Language Center. The center provides facilities for students who want to learn
languages for study, research or personal interest. All the libraries in Oxford
are linked on an integrated electronic library and information
system. Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the
