Oak House is the largest Halls of Residence in the Fallowfield Campus and the second largest of all the residences owned by the University of Manchester.〔()〕 The halls consists of 1083 rooms, divided into 136 self-catered flats and then subdivided into five courts of varying sizes, the largest being Beech, then Sycamore, Maple, Chestnut (the only court offering washbasins in bedrooms) and finally Holly. ==History== The Halls were opened in 1972 with John Flynn as warden. He served until his retirement in 1996. Dr Marc Schmidt is the current warden. John Flynn's time at the hall was remembered with the 'John Flynn Award', which is presented to a student or group of students who show outstanding dedication to Oak House. This award has been won only once, by the Freshers' Team of 2005. Furthermore, residents celebrate John Flynn's time at Oak House with the competition for the John Flynn Cup. This cup is played for at the end of each semester on FIFA 10. However the competition sparked controversy when the inaugural winner was a current resident of Owens Park. Ben Elton, writer of ''Blackadder'', is said to have been one of its alumni. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oak House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
