University Motto:

Motto: Dominus illuminatio mea (Latin)

means "The Lord is my light", from Psalm 27 in the Bible.

"I think there are two things at the heart of the university spirit, the first is the pursuit of excellence in everything, and the second is free and open debate" - Andrew Hamilton, Chancellor of the University of Oxford, UK.

Hamilton said the university spirit embodied by Oxford is, first of all, the absolute pursuit of excellence, whether in teaching or research, will never rest on its laurels, the continuous pursuit of doing better.

Events:

Oxford students celebrated the end of their final exams in their own unique way - friends "attacked" students with bubbles and hand-sprayed ribbons as they prepared to celebrate with champagne in hand. The students were ready to celebrate with champagne in hand. For Oxford's final year students, getting out of the exam room signals the start of the annual end-of-semester party.

In Oxford University, there is a traditional activity called "trashing", Oxford students out of the examination room, waiting for a long time outside the friends, holding flour, hand spraying ribbons toward them "attack", the attack is so fierce, celebrating the students.

The attack was so violent that the celebratory champagne was completely undrinkable.

But Oxford students also have a tradition of wearing black robes during final exams, white carnations for the first exam, red carnations for the last exam and pink carnations for the exams in between.
