8、e My names Eugene Berger, I studied here in Oxford for four years er, studying modern languages at Somerville College.Julie Oh, there are many Oxford traditions. Oxford is a very old university, the oldest English-speaking university in the, in the world. And so there are many traditions which are a
9、ssociated with the colleges, with the times of the year, and with sport, and with eating, for example.Eugene Each college is very different um, from um, the others, and it has its own character. Some colleges are very conservative, and some are much more liberal and have a tradition of um, kind of l
10、iberal politics. But there are also some specific traditions.Julie Formal Hall is when we all eat together here in college, the professors and the students. Usually it takes places at seven oclock in the evening, and the professors sit on high table which is the table over here, and the students sit

Its a very beautiful evening because there are, theres a special meal and we eat by candlelight.Eugene I think er, the traditions that make Oxford so unique are firstly the Oxford Union and er, secondly, May Day. The Oxford Un

And May Day is the first day of May, and we have a tradition called May

There is a choir which sings on top of the tower at Magdalen College and all the people of the town and all the students go to listen to the singing. So its very nice.Eugene The tradition that er, was most

And in this competition, each college is trying to improve its place which it won the previous year and gradually work its way up the river.Julie When the students t
15、ake exams, they must go to a special building and its called Examination Schools. And also they must wear a special uniform, so they wear e. gown like mine, a black gown, and they wear a white shirt, arid the men wear a white tie and black trousers. The women wear a white shirt and a black skirt or
16、black trousers. And they must wear this uniform, which has a Latin name - sub fuse and they must wear this uniform in order to take their examinations.Eugene I think the Oxford traditions lend character to the place and its such an old institution, it should have traditions, but they can be very inconvenient.
