The academic halls were educational institutions within the University of Oxford. The principal difference between a college and a hall was that whereas the former are governed by the fellows of the college, the halls were governed by their principals. Of over a hundred halls in the Middle Ages,[1] only St Edmund Hall survived into the mid-20th century, becoming a college in 1957.
