    Not a surprise, unless your planning to vote for them at next SU election - IIRC don't they get a wage for being a Union officer? - they don't give a crap.


    Good result, though.

    I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

      The reason they do it is to get a better job afterwards.

          Yep though the ones I met ended up in a variety of professions including investment banker (though they "supported" Labour or the Greens as a student) and professional lobbyist.

            Yes, that's because it is.
            Not really. When it's a university managed house or flat the main difference is that you don't have a bar and unlike the catered halls you don't get your cooking and washing up done for you.
            While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

              A university managed flat or house tends to be university managed accommodation that the university doesn't own i.e. they manage it for the landlord.

              University halls whether they are catered or non-catered and whether they are houses, flats or floors are both owned and managed by the university. In one of the universities I attended some of the university owned and managed accommodation didn't have a bar due to it's location.

              Now stop fighting.

                    At my university there were traditional "halls of residence" with rooms on long corridors, blocks of flats owned by the university (some of which were also referred to as halls) and various houses owned by the university (though no doubt some have done a sale and leaseback or similar so don't technically own it). It is the latter two that I am referring to as "university managed accommodation".

                    Now stay out of our fight

                      You have very small pages? I only have 12.
