Chapter 1Setting the Context: Oxford’s Changing Academic and Social Demography

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 1 –18

[This book complements our Collegial Tradition in the Age of Mass Higher Education (Tapper & Palfreyman, 2010). It presents an interpretation of how the collegial tradition has evolved, and is still evolving, within the University of Oxford, which – arguably – is but one of only two collegiate...

Chapter 2Collegiality Debated

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 19 –40

[This chapter assists in setting the scene for the book by considering how collegiality has been debated in the Oxford context. It is not meant to be an elaborate analysis of the idea of collegiality (see Tapper and Palfreyman (2010), The Collegial Tradition in the Age of Mass Higher Education,...

Chapter 3Continuity and Change in the Collegiate Tradition

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 41 –60

[Even the most cursory glance at the histories of Oxford and Cambridge reveals that, while colleges may have existed for centuries, the collegial tradition has evolved over time. Indeed, institutions that exist to fulfil important social functions have little choice but to adapt to the pace of...

Chapter 4Commensality: Time and Space, Port and Sport, Code and Dress

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 61 –75

[Commensality is Halsey’s intriguing word. He ponders, ‘Will commensality survive and, if so, with what further modifications’ (1995, The Decline of Donnish Dominion, p. 174)? But the reader may well reasonably ask, ‘What is ‘commensality’? The OED defines the noun ‘commensal’ as: ‘(one) who eats...

Chapter 5The Elusive Search for the Best and the Brightest

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 77 –94

[It is no surprise that collegiate control of the undergraduate admissions process is integral to Oxford’s collegial tradition. To be an undergraduate at Oxford and Cambridge is to be a junior member of the University, which also entails membership of a college, which in addition for most...

Chapter 6The Tutorial System: The Jewel in the Crown

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 95 –115

[In his encyclopaedic A history of the University of Oxford, Mallet has claimed that the commitment of the Oxford colleges to supervise ‘the conduct and instruction of their younger colleagues was a natural development of the collegiate idea’ (1927, p. 57) and, likewise, the emergence of the...

Chapter 7Governance: A Community of Self-Governing Scholars?

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 117 –141

[Although the collegial tradition is composed of a range of variables at its very core is the idea of a community of self-governing scholars. While collegial institutions may lack financial resources (brotherhoods of poor scholars) or may not be devoted to the pursuit of learning (committed to...

Chapter 8Finance: The Well-Endowed Corporation?

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 143 –163

[Collegiality costs money. Indirectly because dons spend time being involved in college governance and college administration and also because of the inevitable diseconomies of scale compared with a large centrally structured university. Or directly in terms of providing and maintaining...

Chapter 9The Collegiate University in Retreat?

Tapper, Ted; Palfreyman, David

Pages: 165 –184

[Much of the diagnosis of British higher education, past and present, has made frequent use of cataclysmic language. It is not uncommon to perceive the universities as in a state of crisis from which they will recover only if they succeed in radically reshaping themselves (Moberley, 1949, The...
