'The Bridge' on Monday nights. Lebaneese food at Tarboush on George St. And the Student Union on Fridays. Don't miss May Day (May 1st)at sunrise on the High St. Oxford students jump off the brigde into the water with their tuxedos still on from the night before!

I did not go out much, but I got the impression there was more than enough to do if one wanted to. Oxford is a great town, and it is close enough to London that you can go there for a day, or even for a night out, as there are busses 24 hours a day.

Academic
Course recommendations
The postgraduate courses in Hotel Management are very good. I also took 2 classes witht he undergrads, and was positively surprised by the quality of the teaching. But there is a lot to do, I spent a least 40 hours a week doing school work.
