Beautiful churches, including the great Christ Church Cathedral , welcome both visitors and worshipers. There are dozens of outstanding gardens to visit, and the University Parks provide a location for recreation that is very convenient to the College. All Seminar students reside in Trinity College , many of them dwelling in a quadrangle originally designed by Sir Christopher Wren in the seventeenth century. The College's spacious gardens, among the finest in Oxford, provide a setting for conversation, reading or contemplation. Meals are served in the College's dining hall, constructed in 1618.
Tutors regularly join students for meals.
The Oxford Summer Seminar offers its students an opportunity not just to dwell among these academic treasures, but to study and learn at a university that has been educating students since the Middle Ages. The Seminar invites its students to participate in a great academic tradition that has, for many former Seminar students, profoundly enriched their educations.
