Excerpt from Oxford and the Rhodes Scholarships: With List of Rhodes Scholars and Other Information Complete to the End of January, 1907 The primary object of this book is to present, in concise form, a large variety of facts which have been and are, in one way or another, of value or importance to those who are interested in the Rhodes Scholarships. The frequency and the diversity of the inquiries which have been made, both officially and unofficially, and especially the questions which have been asked by and of Rhodes Scholars, have suggested the practicability of an attempt to compile an elementary reference-book which shall contain answers to many of these queries.

Each year thirty-two seniors at American universities are awarded Rhodes Scholarships, which entitle them to spend two or three years studying at the University of Oxford. The program, founded by the British colonialist and entrepreneur Cecil Rhodes and established in 1903, has become the world's most famous academic scholarship and has brought thousands of young Americans to study in England. Many of these later became national leaders in government, law, education, literature, and other fields. Among them were the politicians J. William Fulbright, Bill Bradley, and Bill Clinton; the public policy analysts Robert Reich and George Stephanopoulos; the writer Robert Penn Warren; the entertainer Kris Kristofferson; and the Supreme Court Justices Byron White and David Souter. Based on extensive research in published and unpublished documents and on hundreds of interviews, this book traces the history of the program and the stories of many individuals. In addition it addresses a host of questions such as: how important was the Oxford experience for the individual scholars? To what extent has the program created an old-boy (-girl since 1976) network that propels its members to success? How many Rhodes Scholars have cracked under the strain and failed to live up to expectations? How have the Americans coped with life in Oxford and what have they thought of Britain in general? Beyond the history of the program and the individuals involved, this book also offers a valuable examination of the American-British cultural encounter.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Oxford of Today: A Manual for Prospective Rhodes Scholars The chief aim of this book is to present in a concise, accurate and readable form the more important facts about Oxford University which are of interest particularly to prospective Rhodes Scholars and generally to the academical public. It is in a measure a descendant of a smaller volume written and compiled in 1907 by two American Rhodes Scholars, R. F. Scholz and S. K. Hornbeck, and entitled, Oxford and the Rhodes Scholarships. At that time the Rhodes Scholarships had been in operation but three years. Messrs. Scholz and Hornbeck creditably performed a valuable service in thus making available to prospective American students much information about the University which had been theretofore obtainable only with difficulty, if at all. Their book was published by the Oxford University Press in an edition long since exhausted. Another volume which formerly set forth many of the facts herein presented was the Oxford University Handbook, a semi-official publication issued from time to time by the Oxford University Press. The last edition (1914) is now out of print. Since 1914 many changes have occurred at Oxford. To name but two: Greek is no longer an absolute requirement for admission; and women students (previously admitted only to lectures and examinations) have now full University privileges and may receive degrees.

At his death, the British imperialist and entrepreneur Cecil Rhodes left a substantial fortune to be administered by Trustees. In the century since his death, the Trust has funded the system of international Rhodes Scholarships set out in his will, enabling more than 6,000 scholars from over thirty countries to study at Oxford University.
