Oxford University and its Colleges collectively invest more that £2bn! And virtually no University investors have any policies to make sure that money isn't in the Arms Trade.

Recent research by Campaign Against the Arms Trade and the Oxford University SRI Campaign has revealed over £5,000,000 of Arms Trade Investments - and thats shared amongst just a few of Oxfords Colleges. Many Colleges still refuse to reveal where their money is.

Today Oxford Students took to the streets for a 'Magical Mystery Walking Tour' of the top offenders - starting at St John's College (Over £1,891,191 in Arms), and moving on past Balliol (£592,532) and St Edmunds Hall (£627,243). The tour also made stops along the way at Colleges that refuse to reveal their investments to call for transparency.

To find out more about the campaign to get Oxford University money out of unethical business, visit the website at  http://www.srioxford.org.uk - or if you are a graduate, or potential donor to the University - then check out the new Pledgebank Pledge at  http://www.pledgebank.org/oxfordsri
