I just made edits to the bit about Knox being a 'true' Oxbridge college. As an Otago alumna now at an Oxford college, I know this is not correct. There were several problems with the text: - the key to being an Oxbridge college is that virtually all your education happens within the college; this isn't true at Knox - Knox does have tutorials, but they are not like Oxford ones, which are weekly one-on-one or two-on-one sessions with a university professor or other advanced academic - Article implied Knox was unique in having tutorials -- in fact, all the halls do - All the halls have 'masters', they just don't call them that I've replaced it with some text highlighting the 'feel' and terminology of Knox, which indeed aspires to be like an Oxbridge college.
That's certainly the case. You could mention the rivalry between Knox and Selwyn, e.g. the Cameron Sheifl and Neville Cup, etc.
