All English universities except Oxford and Cambridge are fairly new. The University of Oxford was the first university in Britain. It was organised in the 12th century as a federation of colleges. They are governed by their own teaching staff known as “Fellows”. The oldest college, University College, was founded in 1249. Other famous colleges are: All Souls (founded in 1438), Christ Church (founded in 1546) and the first women’s college Lady Margaret Hall (founded in 1878). Today, Oxford University consists of 35 separate colleges, of which two are for women students only.
