In many British colleges and universities,
sets of two or more colours have
traditionally been used as part of the
distinctive visual identity of the
institution. These colours are used in
clothing and symbols of all kinds, from ties
to trophies, but notably in the long woollen
winter scarves that students often wear to
show their pride in their Institution.
Initially sported by students from the
Constituent Colleges of the
University of London, they have become
synonymous with Oxbridge, and more
traditional
secondary schools.
OxbridgeWithin the Universites of Oxford and Cambridge, in addition to collegiate scarves, there are also several non-collegiate scarves which have a well established meaning. For example, those representing the University in sport may be entitled to wear a particular scarf, depending on their level of achievement, or a university department or club may have its own scarf.
