		Anthony Smith, President of Magdalen College, Oxford comments on the posting about his college: I would add that the Oxbridge college is overlooked for its virtues as an enterprise form.
		Every College has a 'Visitor' (ours is still the Bishop of Winchester) who administers the oath of office to each successive President and to whom we can refer disputes as to the correct interpretation of our statutes, should there be any conflict of view.
		The point is that every college, by reason of the responsibilities held by the Fellows, is anxious to do the best for itself, to compete successfully with its neighbours and to cooperate successfully in operating the affairs of a major world university.

	Mary Magdalene 22 July NT
		Mary Magdalene is mentioned in the Gospels as being among the women of Galilee who followed Jesus and His disciples, and who was present at His Crucifixion and Burial, and who went to the tomb on Easter Sunday to annoint His body.
		Mary Magdalene, Mary of Bethany (sister of Martha and Lazarus), and the unnamed penitent woman who annointed Jesus's feet (Luke 7:36-48) are sometimes supposed to be the same woman.
		Because of the assumption that Mary Magdalene had been a spectacular sinner, and also perhaps because she is described as weeping at the tomb of Jesus on the Resurrection morning, she is often portrayed in art as weeping (see References, right), or with eyes red from having wept.

	History of Oxford Magdalen College school – of choristers ancient and modern
		Another tradition, peculiar to Magdalen and surviving to this day, was the singing of a hymn on top of the tower at dawn on May Day morning; the origin of this is unknown.
		The choristers were producing a Magdalen school newspaper at this time and in the issue dated 1 May 1840 they recounted that the old custom of throwing rotten eggs down from the tower at the May morning festivities had been revived.
		Millard summed up his reminiscences with a tribute to various of the college dignitaries who, while the choristers were behaving in such an appalling manner, never withdrew their kindness and understanding towards them.

	An Oxford College by Edward Gibbon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		THE College of St. Mary Magdalen was founded in the fifteenth century by Wainfleet, Bishop of Winchester; and now consists of a president, forty fellows, and a number of inferior students.
		The fellows or monks of my time were decent easy men, who supinely enjoyed the gifts of the founder; their days were filled by a series of uniform employments; the chapel and the hall, the coffee-house and the common room, till they retired, weary and well satisfied, to a long slumber.
		Their conversation stagnated in a round of college business, Tory politics, personal anecdotes, and private scandal: their dull and deep potations excused the brisk intemperance of youth: and their constitutional toasts were not expressive of the most lively loyalty for the house of Hanover.
