Brasenose college

What are your opinions on this college - subject is PPE.

I know it is a sporty college, this doesn't mean they would favour top rugby players does it? Also I have heard it is looking to attract more state school pupils - is the college full of public schoolers? What is the food like there - I am vegetarian and have heard its not great. Are there any kitchen facilities - fridges, toasters, microwaves?

Thanks

It is known to be a bit of a public school, rugger bugger college; similar to Teddy Hall.

Apparently there's two microwaves in the college and most cooking equipment in rooms is banned, according to my friend who starts there tomorrow.

Last open day, before the summer holidays, I went to Brasenose after spending a day/night at ChCh. For me it just seemed right cant really explain it - more intimate than the expansive Christchurch, great central location right next to the Bodleian and pretty close to the History Faculty too. Also has a pretty decent History library, two nice quad's and pretty reasonable accomadation.

A few people I know have been there, they didnt have too many complaints!
Seems to have a good reputation for Law, History and a few other subjects - and its pretty old too - dont be fooled into thinking the Rad Cam is part of the college - its not, but is always on the front of their prospectus!
