beefface Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I was there from '85 to '90 (Foundation then B.A) and for a young lad born and bred on Parson Cross it was certainly a eye opener, I'd never been up that side of town before, had a great time. I met one of my best mates there and it really opened my head and made me more broad minded and receptive,a perfect antidote to the inslar, suspicious parochialism I'd experienced before. Did me sod all good careerwise but wouldn't have missed it for the world! Now that's what further education is all about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 My dad did a one-year course there towards the site's final years; and he thought well of it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravity426 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 studied film at psalter lane 2003-2006. Seeing some of the pics on this thread has really brought back some great memories. It really was a different world up there, students mixed with staff almost seamlessly at times, the library was quiet, and full of books, not laptops, and we actually used it for studying. The small scale of the place gave it a real relaxed feel, you knew most staff and they knew you. The setting was perfect for the creative courses it ran, I really miss it.

Who were your tutors?. Did you come across Ed Mayer, Graham Bevan, Theo Cowdell and the like?. It all seems like such a long time ago now - but then I guess it is!!. Can't say I completely enjoyed my time there, but it has a lot of memories for me and I geuss it'll be sad to see it go, if the relocation moves forward. I am trying to find people who were on that course. I was there but don't recall many names. Reply if you can give any names of other students as I can't recall much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
