Never I hope, it's rather handy from St Catz (which surely rivals the law faculty in the ugliness stakes!)

Is St Catz that bad? God .. im so spoiled in this college ... I think it has ruined me for the rest of Oxford! ... However I fear that the majority of my courses are going to end up being in the St Cross building

Actually having said that... I saw Blue Boar Quad in ChCH... I honestly couldn't believe my eyes... HOW do they get permission to build these things! Its like standing Michelle from pop Idol next to Angelina Jolie... surely itll stick out people!
Lawzzzzzz
Is it just me, or is the St Cross building the ugliest piece of architecture in all of Oxford?


I thought people would hate St Wolfson College out of everything.

Indeed it is - but the new building will be the entrance from March, so hopefully will look much nicer!

Does anyone know how often tutorials/lectures/seminars are held elsewherE?


The law library is fantastic though: set out properly and purpose built - you don't get that when a building is adapted to fit a new use.

I know! I did my D.Phil there!

Wolfson rocks! St Catz is the original hell hole!

I'm lucky in that I live near The Barbican, so if I ever miss Wolfie, I just go there and have a wonder round - home from home!
If I am successful with my first choice university I might be visiting Wolfson College for a research centre :cool:

Why is St Catz the original hell hole? j/w
