Balliol College, University college in Oxford, England
The buildings of Balliol College include a medieval hall, the Old Library from the 15th century, and a chapel designed by William Butterfield.
Founded in 1263 by John I de Balliol and his wife Dervorguilla of Galloway, Balliol College stands as one of Oxford University's earliest institutions.
The college introduced the Philosophy, Politics, and Economics degree program in the 1920s, which became a model for interdisciplinary education worldwide.
Students at Balliol College share access to multiple libraries, dining facilities, common rooms, and residential accommodations across the central Oxford campus.
Holywell Manor, acquired in 1932, houses graduate students and maintains an art collection created by former college members throughout its corridors.
