Sir,
Many people in the US would like to know how Chelsea Clinton graduated with honors from Stanford when she took off an entire year to travel around the world (at taxpayer's expense) with her parents. Was she,unlike other students, given credit just because of who she was? And is she attending Oxford free of charge? Others have tried to find out this information and failed. Mainly because of threats from Hillary Clinton. They keep dark secrets to themselves at any cost. However, a lot of people are interested in trying to understand why she receives such special treatment.

Dear Sirs,
I am trying to plug a society about psychology and philosophy called The Oxford Consciousness Society", because I missed fresher's fair... If I wrote a thigh-slappingly funny article called "Brains are sexy" or something, could I do a brief-yet-effective plug at the end for a talk on wednesday of 1st week? If that's like against your ethos then I won't bother submitting one. But if it's cool then I could write it pronto and surrender myself to your editorial power.
Incidentally if you would like to hear a talk about brains and stuff by the amazing Professor Richard Gregory, Head of Cognitive Science and All Things Gorgeous at Birmingham, come along to the Auditorium in Magdalen at 8.30pm on Wednesday of 1st Week.
Paul Taylor, Magdalen
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Adonis a dramatologist from Greece. I am in extreme need of getting in touch with Mrs Lisa Thiel, as a professional theatre company in Grecce might be interested in staging her adaptation of shallow grave.
Do you know any way I may come in touch with her? Thank you so much Adonis Galeos
Hallo Oxford Student...
I need help! I am from Denmark and Im lokking for a boy called Pete. He is 21 years old, half Danish and he lives in Oxford with his parents. I dont know his last name but maybe he has a Danish middle name or last name. I known that he has five years left on the University and that he failled his exame/class last year, and he have to start all over again after this summerhollyday. I know his birhtday is in March and that he is going to be 22 years old. He dont live in a college on the University, he lives at home with his parents in Oxford (his parents are divorced).
I meet him on a boat from Denmark to England and back to Denmark and we did that and that and so on (guys, can we blame them, they cant keep their hands of us Scandinavian girls :o).
Pete and his brother John was going to visit their grandparents and in København, their mother is Danish. They left England the 17 Aug and they stayed in Denmark for 14 days to the 1 Sep. I dont know if his brother John is going on the University but he properly
is. John is 23 years old.
I have sent you a picture if that would help. Mabey you can help me in someway but I wont hope because the University is so big and I dont even know the guy last name. Its so stupid, you properly think that I am crazy.
I hope very much that you can help me, please do what you can... Janni from Denmark
Dear Sirs, May I ask whether Miss Buckley thinks it humorous to write the grammatically incorrect drivel that she does? I have read your publication but rarely and on each occasion I have been astounded by the fact that you have, in your infinite wisdom, let someone who is virtually illiterate become deputy editor. Grammar is important and her inability to use the Saxon genitive or, for that matter, to construct a meaningful sentence, should not be laughed aside.
