Description of the flag

Wadham College of Oxford University (photo by "inel") can be seen at http://inel.wordpress.com/2008/04/11/wadham-college-oxford-main-entrance. The college website is at http://www.wadham.ox.ac.uk. Founded in 1610 by Nicholas Wadham (endowment) and his wife Dorothy (realization), whose arms became those of the College. An old rendering (the College flag is a banner-of-arms) is at http://www.heraldryshop.biz/catalogue/tobaccocards/wills/willsoxcam_clip_image041.jpg.

Blazon, quoted from the University Calendar 2003-4: Gules, a chevron between three roses argent, seeded or, barbed vert impaling gules, a bend or between two escallops argent.
