531:) 17:13, 18 February 2016 (UTC) Belay that Q - I was misled by an inaccurate claim elsewhere in Knowledge (XXG) that somebody had been educated at Manchester in the 1810s, being taught by Dalton at New College Manchester. On further investigation, Dalton left the college in 1800 (yet another STEM qualified teacher finding the pay inadequate) and the pupil (according to other obituaries) was educated at the Leaf Square Academy, Pendleton (not at all clear that he was taught by Dalton, either ) 154: 133: 164: 587:) show that Harris Manchester is the smallest Oxford college which admits undergraduates by total student numbers. Nuffield College is smaller, but is a graduate college. All Souls College only has fellows, some of whom take postgraduate degrees. Green Templeton College only admits graduate students, but accepts students studying graduate entry medicine who are counted as undergraduates in the university figures (see 270: 249: 71: 53: 22: 280: 503:
I have removed the bullet point "George Berkeley, stayed at what is now the Wedgwood & Bentley house from 1752 till his death" from the section "People associated with Harris Manchester". IMHO the fact that he shortly lived in a building curently used by HMS does not make him "associated". I

Graduate Colleges don't count, of course; the notion of a mature student applies only to undergraduates (the definition used to be that they had to be twenty-five or over; under twenty-five but with full-time jobs counted as Independent students. Again, I'm not sure of the current regulations).

claims that Harris Manchester is the smallest Oxford college have been repeatedly added to and removed from the article, possibly because they are either inaccurate or excessively detailed. The December 2018 numbers on the university website

guess the Wedgwood & Bentley house was renamed Sekyra house. Next to the plaque "Bishop George Berkeley philosopher 1685 - 1753 is perceived to have lived and died here." a new plaque "Ludek Sekyra house 6th November 2014" was added.

I'm pretty certain that Birkbeck takes non-mature students (it only offers part-time courses, and it used to only take students who had a job). I don't know of any other college that takes
