The University of Oxford has thirty-nine colleges,and four permanent private halls (PPHs) of religious foundation. Colleges and PPHs are autonomous self-governing corporations within the university. These colleges are not only houses of residence,but have substantial responsibility for teaching undergraduate students. Generally tutorials and classes are the responsibility of colleges,while lectures,examinations,laboratories,and the central library are run by the university. Students normally have most of their tutorials in their own college,but often have a couple of modules taught at other colleges or even at faculties and departments. Most colleges take both graduates and undergraduates,but several are for graduates only.

The Oxford University Ice Hockey Club (OUIHC) is home to the Men’s and Women’s Blues ice hockey teams of the University of Oxford,England. The Men's Blues,also known as Oxford University Blues,is one of the world's oldest ice hockey teams. Tradition places the origin of the team in 1885,when a match is said to have been played against Cambridge University Ice Hockey Club in St Moritz,Switzerland. This date is recognised by the Hockey Hall of Fame,and prior to the 1985 Ice Hockey Varsity Match,the International Ice Hockey Federation formally recognised the 1885 game as the first ice hockey match played in Europe. However,there is no contemporary evidence that this match took place,and Oxford now claims that this was a bandy match.
