Inter-College Transfer - Oxford

So, have you considered what options you will choose for History?

Only in the sense of "I wish I could do all of these". The historiography paper (1st year) just looks so amazing - I'm split between doing the primary sources stuff (Tacitus to Weber) and the foreign language texts. As for the General/British history stuff, there's just too much choice to know yet. The Med Hist tutor at my colleges is absolutely amazing though, so I'll just do what he teaches (he ran the Hist open day in September if you went to that). As for stuff after that...not sure. Would like to do a thesis though.

I change my mind daily- i'm a modernist by preference- but think it's important if try something new!
I think all the Unit 4 options are great- will be a hard choice!

You should definitely do some medieval stuff, Oxford's really strong at it + it's slightly different coz there's so little evidence so your whole approach is slight different. Similarly, I'm looking forwarding to doing modern history properly for the first time in a couple of years.

As for Unit 4 - yeah it's amazing. One of the (many) big plus point over the Cambridge course.

Shows what you know......I didn't break a single law.

Arrest your tongue before your hurt yourself.

You know I have been a member of this board for 3 years and have never posted, and today I posted twice.

Yeah, it's pretty. Look at in Jan 2004 during the snow:

Pretty, huh!

Would you at least concede it was morally wrong?

(I'm still not convinced it wasn't fraud. Unless you get £1,000 of change it's not really the same thing)

How much did Pembroke charge for admitting students this year?

It's actually incredibly funny.

Not really. Just immature.

Wow! How dull are you? There must be no joy in your life at all.

Look, my point is just that you treated the Chinese pretty shabbily. You may have enjoyed it, but they certainly didn't and you shouldn't have done it. I wasn't making a personal attack on you.

So would I.

I also do not think it's particularly honourable to sneak around in bushes with a videocamera trying to film other candidates when standing for election.

He did that?

Well, he got someone else to do it. Not the worst conduct in that election, 'though.

Not really. Just immature.

What else happened?

Yes. And he had his Union membership temporarily withdrawn because of it.

Jeez, this site is turning into OxfordGossip....
