Oxford graduate
Bodleian library veteran
A person who has completed a degree at the University of Oxford, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious universities.
The term often carries connotations of elite education, intellectual distinction, or social privilege: As an Oxford graduate, she had doors open that others didn't.
Sometimes invoked to establish credentials or, sarcastically, to deflate pretension.
