h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm a current student here and wouldn't be opposed to writing an entry on it, however, that must be after exams, so am afraid there wont be much happening for another month or so.

If anyone else goes to/has graduated from Warwick then do tell me and join in writing the entry!

Thanks, that'd be brilliant, Northern_Rebellion!

Some random facts to get the ball rolling:

Founded 1965.

University website: http://www.warwick.ac.uk

Students' union website: http://www.sunion.warwick.ac.uk/

The famous alumni are really diverse! Jennie Bond (BBC Royal Correspondent), comedian Frank Skinner, Steven Pile (writer), Simon May (DJ) and Timmy Mallett (...)!

And apparently Sting went for half a year...

Now - best of luck with those exams!

And Stephen Merchant of the Office fame. Also Andrew Davis the adaptor of many famous books for TV.

I'm currently sitting my finals and would be happy to contribute, however i would be critial of the level of teaching which is quite franky aweful! Especially in the law dept who don't seem to care a jot for undergraduates.

Cheers Natalie, that alumni list was quite helpful

Oh, and lauddn, excellent that you wanna help out! My exams are over on the 6th, so I will probably start writing it shortly thereafter. When do you finish?

I would have to say that the level of teaching isnt that bad in my department though (economics)...
