Summary "Oxford Days; or, How Ross Got His Degree" by F. E. Weatherly is a fictional account written in the late 19th century that explores university life at Oxford. The narrative follows the experiences of Frank Ross, an eighteen-year-old freshman as he embarks on his journey through the academic realms, social environments, and personal growth that university life entails. The book seeks to provide a practical guide to university existence while intertwining these details within a storytelling format that brings the experience to life. The opening of this work introduces Frank Ross, who finds himself in discussions with the Vicar of Porchester and his father regarding his future at university. As they navigate the educational choices and expectations surrounding college life, Frank's initial day at Oxford is depicted in a mix of anticipation and anxiety. The text details his arrival at Paul’s College, the matriculation process, and the various scholarly and social challenges that lie ahead. Frank's perspective captures his sense of dignity and eagerness, setting the stage for an exploration of friendships, academics, and the unique culture of Oxford.
