Proproctor is a British university term for an assistant proctor — a junior official who assists the proctor (disciplinary officer) at certain universities, particularly Oxford and Cambridge. The pro- prefix indicates a deputy or assistant function. The role is largely ceremonial in contemporary universities but historically involved real disciplinary authority over students. The term is technical and institutional, confined to the vocabulary of traditional British university governance.
