Oh whoops, misread it! Still don't know that the colleges would be happy accepting charitable donations though, especially not with all the rivalry
But god, it'd be nice...

College inequality is huge at Oxford. Whilst the official prospectus claims that all colleges are alike, accommodation ranges from £60-£140/week... academically 1 college has 30% getting 1sts another 10%... number of books in library goes from 40,000 to 180,000... search for it in uk-l, it's all been raised plenty of times.

Well, if Trinity offered free accommodation to all its undergrads that would probably have caused unrest amongst the students elsewhere in the university, I expect. But I think they probably could afford it!

Yes. They're in a bit of financial trouble and trying to raise rents to compensate, which is going down appallingly badly with the students...

...I think they couldn't have found a worse set of students to try it on with in Cambridge too.

The financial situation is not at dire as that at St. John's, though. King's have just a modest deficit.
