  • Jesus College is one of the colleges of the University of Oxford in England. It is in the centre of the city, on a site between Turl Street, Ship Street, Cornmarket Street and Market Street. The college was founded by Elizabeth I in 1571 for the education of clergy, though students now study a broad range of secular subjects. A major driving force behind the establishment of the college was Hugh Price (or Aprice), a churchman from Brecon in Wales, and the college continues to be associated informally with Wales to this day. The oldest buildings, in the first quadrangle, date from the 16th and early 17th centuries; a second quadrangle was added between about 1640 and about 1713, and a third quadrangle was built in about 1906. Further accommodation was built on the main site to mark the 400th anniversary of the college, in 1971, and student flats have been constructed at sites in north and east Oxford. The life of the college was disrupted by the English Civil War. Leoline Jenkins, who became principal after the war in 1661, put the college on a more stable financial footing. Little happened at the college during the 18th century, and the 19th century saw a decline in numbers and academic standards. Reforms of Oxford University after two Royal Commissions in the latter half of the 19th century led to removal of many of the restrictions placed on the college's fellowships and scholarships, such that the college ceased to be predominantly full of Welsh students and academics. Students' academic achievements rose in the early 20th century as fellows were appointed to teach in new subjects. Women were first admitted in 1974 and now form a large part of the undergraduate population. There are about 475 students; the Principal of the college is Lord Krebs. Former students include Harold Wilson (who was twice British Prime Minister), Norman Washington Manley, T. E. Lawrence ("Lawrence of Arabia"), Angus Buchanan (winner of the Victoria Cross) and Viscount Sankey. The university's professorship of Celtic is attached to the college, a post held by scholars such as Sir John Rhys, Ellis Evans and Thomas Charles-Edwards. Past or present fellows of the college include the historians Sir Goronwy Edwards and Niall Ferguson, the philosopher Galen Strawson and the political philosopher John Gray.
  • Das Jesus College ist eines der Colleges der Universität Oxford. Es wurde von Elisabeth I. auf Vorschlag des Geistlichen Dr. Hugh Price im Jahre 1571 für Stipendiaten aus Wales gegründet. Price wird aufgrund seiner finanziellen Zuwendungen, die die Gründung erst ermöglichten, häufig auch als "wahrer Gründer" bezeichnet. Die Mitglieder des Jesus College kamen bis Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts fast ausschließlich aus dem Fürstentum. Noch heute gibt es eine starke walisische Studentengruppe. 1907 erhielt der als Lawrence von Arabien bekannte britische Archäologe und Schriftsteller Thomas Edward Lawrence ein Stipendium für das Jesus College. Weitere berühmte Studenten waren Baron Wilson of Rievaulx, britischer Premierminister von 1964-70 und von 1974-76 sowie Parteivorsitzender der Labour Party und der indische Wirtschaftswissenschaftler Deepak Lal, Berater der Weltbank und zur Zeit Präsident der Mont Pèlerin Society.
  • El Jesus College es uno de los colleges que constituyen la Universidad de Oxford en Inglaterra. En 2006 tuvo un presupuesto estimado de 119 millones de libras. La entrada principal se encuentra en el lado oeste de Turl Street. El college está flanqueado al norte por Ship Street y al sur por Market Street. El Jesus ha sido llamado “el primer college protestante de Oxford”, y fue fundado por Isabel I de Inglaterra en 1571 para la educación de los clérigos, aunque ahora se estudian multitud de carreras. Una de las fuerzas conductoras del establecimiento del college fue Hugo Price (o Aprice), un cura de Brecon en Gales, y debido a eso el college sigue estando asociado a Gales. Hoy en día el college tiene alrededor de 500 estudiantes, y el Director es Lord Krebs.

Jesus College har blitt kalt for «det første protestantiske kollegiet i Oxford» og ble grunnlagt av dronning Elisabeth I i 1571 for å utdanne geistlige. En viktig grunn for etableringen var Hugh Price (eller Aprice), en geistlig fra Brecon i Wales som ble gitt stillingen skattemester, Diocesan Treasurer of St David's, det samme året som fakultet mottok dets første charter. Kollegiet har siden formelt beholdt sin forbindelse til Wales fram til våre dager.
