Harper Adams college.

i was led to believe that said college was the top agricultural college in england, not a training place for eco warriors!! lol- i have a friend there and have been around the place myself as my son was considering going there but he went to Gelli Aur instead.

It is the best agricultural university in the UK.

One of the things that makes it grand is that they encourage independent thought. Funny that.

OMG!!! Have I bred 2 eco warriors then?

 

[silverbullet]

Definately the top ag college!!

All uni's have to have a diverse range of courses to survive - and definately wouldn't say there were many eco-warriors there when I was there - just lots of farmers!!!

 

[Serenity087]

There aren't ANY eco warriors... well, there's a few countryside students who are a bit iffy, and the odd odd vet nurse...

Rosiefronfelen is just being rude for the sake of it.

I'm a local (so by rights should be even ruder than Rosiefronfelen) but besides the odd rude/inconsiderate sod which you would find anywhere, I've never met an 'eco-warrior' and I would never say a bad word about the college (thinking of doing a post-grad there actually).

It's no different to any other uni just more farmers than normal .....and hey if they can manage to deal with the local chavs and busybodies then they deserve a medal....I can't!

 

[rosie fronfelen]

not being rude, just reading your posts---lol!!!!

 

[rosie fronfelen]

personally, i think the Royal Ag. takes some beating.

 

[Serenity087]

The royal ag is useless! Unless Daddy is rich enough, there's no point even considering it!

We used to have a rivalry with them, but they blew it by getting themselves arrested! Now we're not allowed to play sports against them

Daddy must be so proud!

Even Welsh students can't out drink Harpers either....spent three years serving them breakfast the morning after the balls.....very entertaining and made me want to go to one!

 

[rosie fronfelen]

i know many ex students from Ciren who have gone on well, and certainly not all with "rich daddies"!! i knew the late principal many years ago, and ordinary farmer from Tenby so each to their own- by the way, my friend at Harpers is welsh and drinks like a fish!

You are more than welcome to join my sister and I to this years summer ball!!!

 

[MurphysMinder]

Brother is a local, think he would certainly endorse the drinking ability of some of the students (he considered letting rooms to them but thought better of it having seen some of them on nights out), definitely quite a few with rich daddies though, or would imagine that is the only way they can afford to drive round in 4 x 4s, but think generally the same mix as any other college.

Cracking place, best 4 years of my life (wish I was back)

Eco warriers? Pah. You should see some of the ones at Brack. The Wildlife Conservation students are mental! Living, breathing, dreadlocked stereotypes.
