Why do people always call "UWE" by "bristol uwe"?
It's name is not Bristol UWE... Bristol University of Western England doesn't make sense. It's like going to Oxford Oxford Brookes.
There's only one UWE so it's not as if it's ambiguous
the website sometimes uses "UWE, Bristol" to clarify the location of the university, which is fair enough as that is the normal way of describing a location.
saying Bristol UWE, or even more infuriatingly shortening it to Bristol is pretty lame indeed!
