I’m at Oxford now, and I wouldn’t say that the anti-American feeling here is particularly bad. I am British, so maybe I can’t tell, but on the whole people here are open minded enough to be able to differentiate between a government they dislike (and not everyone here dislikes it anyway), and an individual American.



I wouldn’t say Oxford/England is very (or at all really) anti-American. Though it might be quite anti-Bush at times. There is an American student society, which has just started since for many years (centuries?) Americans have been the only nationality group at Oxford without their own society.

There are LOTS of year abroad students here.
