William Blackstone went to Pembroke College in Oxford.
 With his appointment as assessor (or chief legal officer) of the Chancellor's Court, Blackstone became far more involved in the university's peculiar legal system, and records show him sitting between eight and ten times a year from 1753 to 1759, mainly dealing with small claims of debt
Blackstone revelled in Charterhouse's academic curriculum, particularly the Latin poetry of Ovid and Virgil
