High Table

At Oxford and Cambridge colleges, and more traditional academic institutions, High Table is a table on a raised platform at the end of the dining hall for the use of fellows (members of the Senior Common Room) and their guests. On more formal evening occasions, dinner jackets are worn. It is also normal to wear academic gowns.
