Eights Week at the University of Oxford: A Tradition Unfolds on the River Isis (circa 1910s) This evocative photograph captures the essence of Eights Week, a cherished tradition at the University of Oxford that takes place every May during the fifth week of Trinity term. The River Isis, a serene and picturesque waterway, transforms into a bustling hub of activity as students from various colleges gather to compete in the main intercollegiate rowing event of the year. In this image, a mass of punts and barges fill the River Isis, their vibrant colors and intricate designs reflecting off the calm water. The punts, a quintessential symbol of Oxford's rich history and tradition, are manned by determined students, their focused expressions and intense concentration evident as they prepare for the upcoming bumps races. The bumps races, a unique format of rowing competition, involve teams from different colleges racing against each other in a series of heats. The objective is to 'bump' the boat in front, thereby gaining a place in the rankings. The tension and excitement of the races are palpable, with the cheers and roars of the spectators adding to the electric atmosphere. Eights Week is a time for camaraderie, competition, and tradition, and this photograph encapsulates the spirit of this beloved event. The students, dressed in their college colors and regalia, embody the pride and passion that defines the University of Oxford. As the sun sets over the River Isis, the day's races come to a close, and the anticipation for the following day's competition builds. Eights Week continues, a testament to the enduring allure and rich history of Oxford University.
