Tecnically, I think this should be former members of Christ Church, Oxford, since the term members encompasses undergraduates, graduates, tutors, and members of ther governing body, while the term "student" at Christ Church is reserved for fellows of the college holding studentships.

Yes, the word "student" in the context of Christ Church means a fellow and not an undergraduate or postgraduate. The term "member" is perhaps also too loose (as there exists a Category: Fellows of Christ Church, Oxford category already). How about Alumni of Christ Church, Oxford? 194.81.46.238 11:15, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The equivalent category for all Cambridge colleges is "Alumni of X College, Cambridge"...on the one hand, this would evade this Christ Church problem. On the other hand, doesn't "alumni" imply that one received a degree? Many aristocratic students in the past would have studied some place without ever taking a degree. john k 19:45, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
