    I go to University of Portsmouth, and its not a campus one. Which makes it soo much better, IMO. You get to mix more with people from outside the university, and aren't constantly surrounded by students. And you get more exercise because things are more spread out (Though it is a pain when you have a 9AM law lecture on the other side of town, after going to bed very very late). There is also less uni restrictions on you, because you aren't surrounded by staff.

    There are bad things too though. Halls are pretty spread out, which is annoying. And i think the locals tend to hate us.

    Abbie, i know someone at Lincoln. She seems to like it. But i don't think it is the most studenty place in the world, if you get what i mean.

    i think id find a noncampus uni annoying! i go to kent which is a campus uni and i love the fact everything is in one place! i dont think there are too many rules and restrictions either, obviously in the library and stuff, but in the accomodation we seemed to be able to do what we liked! obviously i dont have the experience of a noncampus uni so cant properly compare but i hate just having to get from my house to campus everyday let alone having all my lectures in different places around town! and we quite often go out in town so mix with other people as well as students from the other uni (which ive just realised is a non campus uni!)

    i dont know anyone that goes to lincoln or hertfordshire so dunno what theyre like

    The only bad thing about hertfordshire is there are two campuses so if you wanted to go to the library and you lived on the other side you'd have to walk over, and I think the gym is on the other side of where I would be in halls if I went there. I prefer campus uni's because everythings in the same place I'm lazy like that. plus I would like the huge libraries on campus because I am never able to concentrate at home...
    Peter: So how many are there? Is it bad? Olivia: Did you eat? Peter: Yeah. Olivia: Well, that's unfortunate.

    I'm at Aston and I like that it's all on campus, everything's close together and I don't find it restrictive at all! The main building is on the far side, but everythingis jsut close enough (and my halls are over the road from the city centre which helps!)
