History
A legend arose in the 14th century that the college was founded by
King Alfred in 872. This explains why the college arms are those attributed to King Alfred, why the
Visitor is always the reigning monarch, and why the college celebrated its millennium in 1872. Most agree that in reality the college was founded in 1249 by
William of Durham
William of Durham (died 1249) is said to have founded University College, Oxford, England.[Univer ...](_blank)
. He bequeathed money to support ten or twelve masters of arts studying divinity, and a property which became known as Aula Universitatis (University Hall) was bought in 1253.
This later date still allows the claim that Univ is the oldest of the Oxford colleges, although this is contested by
Balliol College and
Merton College.
Univ was only open to fellows studying
