Universities with their own climbing walls?

This is a bit random but is there a list of universities which have their own climbing walls?

Or can anyone make me a list?

That's not a bit random it's very random.

Lots of unis have climbing walls - just google it and you will be able to access a list provided by the British Mountaineering Society

Make your own list rather than get others to do the work and research for you
If it matters enough to you then you'll do the work

Also google for a current list maybe?

I tried googling it and I couldn’t find anything. That’s why I made this post

A very brief google told me that there were climbing walls at Oxford Brookes, Surrey and Lancaster unis - I could produce a longer list if I wanted to spend a couple of hours on it but sadly I don't.

If you have already shortlisted certain unis, wouldn't it be quicker just to phone those unis? Although from the British Mountaineering Society list it looks as though most big towns and cities have one somewhere so it doesn't seem that big of a deal to me if you have to go outside the uni campus

Uni climbing walls are probably not gonna be as good as private ones. There are gyms in every city. Why not just use one of those?
