Well becuase i have been so busy with exams before comms i am only really starting today which is definatley a bit late! how about u? Im just a bit confused with when you would use mass culture, because isnt it really popular culture? also what are the arguments for high culture... Matthew Arnold said it was the the pursuit of perfection and all that but whats the actual argument?

Thank you so much for that link, the website is so helpful and although i didnt get it in time for my exams, has lots of helpful stuff for my coursework! Question not related to Communications now, what do you think of Loughborough Uni, i have applied there and have a offer for sociology, yet havnt been to see it yet (stupidly) so until i do im trying to gather as much info on it as i can. Someone has said that the nightlife isnt reli that good and they had to go into Nottingham for a good night. would u say that was true?

No problems about that link I hope your coursework goes well. Your lucky I came across your post since you didn't quote me I usually wouldn't have seen it.

As far as Loughborough goes the nightlife is a bit limited compared with where I'm from (London). It is a campus university with the union being the largest nightlife venue in Leicestershire but the town is pretty limited. It's not far to Nottingham or Leicester though about 10mins either way on the train.

Hope this helps pm me if you want to know anymore.

Thats really strange cause i swear my teacher said that our class were the only ones that took that exam this january because a lot of people said their classes weren't ready for it or something? She looked online or something..

Also, thanks to whoever put the cultsock thing up, thats really good lol :smile:
