- Accommodation Details:
- Students are housed on site and some in a shared complex nearby in Iffley Road. They share with Christ Church students. The complex is plush and all rooms have phone and internet connections. The food is also very good, there are few complaints.
|
- Libraries:
- The ancient library has 60 000 books and several peaceful reading rooms, perfect when you want to escape the hustle and bustle.
|
- Computing:
- 16 machines, all are accesible round the clock but they are pretty popular so plan your time carefully if you need to get something done for a deadline and don't have your own equipment.
|
- Sports:
- Students do get involved in sport but not that many make it too the highest levels. Its more about the fun really. Playing fields are slightly further away but still walkable.
|
- Bars:
- The Beer Cellar Bar is the place for social activity. It gets pretty lively and plays host to various functions.
|
- Functions:
- There are organised functions every fortnight and more regular theme nights like 'doctors and nurses' and 'pimps and prostitutes.' All good fun.
Music is very popular at Corpus Christi and this is reflected in the amount of live performance. Gigs and concerts are held in a music room or in the bar.
|
- Major Social Events:
- There is an annual event called Mayhem. With a name like that you don't really need us to tell you that its not a formal dinner!
They also have a big function on Burns Night.
