The American Oxonian (TAO; ISSN 0003-0295) is a journal of arts, politics and letters published triannually by of the Association of American Rhodes Scholars, featuring articles of contemporary as well as historical relevance. Its first issue appeared in April 1914.
History
[edit]From the beginning of the Rhodes Scholarship, the experience of American Rhodes Scholars in their Oxford University education created a bond among those who shared it and led to a desire to share their work — both academic and personal — across generations. The first attempt to create a newsletter among the American Rhodes Scholar alumni was made in 1907 with a short-lived publication called The Alumni Magazine. Seven years later, a permanent successor appeared with the first issue of the American Oxonian in April 1914 and it has existed ever since.[1]
