The Rt. Hon. Lord Jenkins, Chancellor of the University of Oxford, examines the history of the selection and electoral process of the office of Chancellor of the University of Oxford from the 18th century to 1960 and assesses the changes in the role and powers of the Chancellor, including those during his own period of office. He concludes with some reflections on the relationship between the University and city of Oxford itself, and the continuing efforts to balance the needs of the city with that of maintaining the University as an academic institution of worldwide importance.
