So, you’ve been attending (or are about to, hello to all the freshers!) Coventry University. Whether you’ve been at the place for the duration of your degree, or you’re just starting out some of the most memorable years of your life, here’s 20 things you’ve definitely done/thought if you go to Coventry University.
Or, as the locals call it, ‘Colly’. You may haven’t had the pleasure of seeing the number one choice (really the only decent choice, sorry JJ’s!) of nightclub Coventry has to offer. A group visit to Kasbah following too many at pres is a through and through sign that you go to Coventry University.
Woe the day. Here’s looking forward to the new refurb and the many drunken nights to come with it.
Singer Halls, Liberty, those other halls I swear nobody actually seems to live in. (No offence Calice, Priory and Quadrant!) You were likely on the bar crawl pissing off the locals whilst befriending drunk people you never ended up speaking to or seeing after this wild week. Screaming hall names are a sure sign that you go to Coventry University. Let everyone know about it!
I mean, it’s the easiest, and probably cheapest option, for student parking. How we’ll miss finding parking this close to the campus. RIP Gulson Car Park.
This might just be me, but when the library’s Twitter account posts about the dogs making a visit and booking your spot, the stress of all your work just seems to melt away.
Is it actually a student only place? I swear I’ve gotten in with just my regular ID, while my student card left at home next to the strewn makeup and leftover vodka lemonade on my desk.
I mean, it could be? Though we have a pretty unfortunate name for this purpose, I’m pretty sure we just call it ‘Moodle’.
Do they ever end?
I swear it was £40. And now it’s £70?! I apologise to my poor bank account in advance.
Except all the NHS people and those in engineering, who get a free pass on this one. As we’re one of the only unis who run these modules, it’s a definite sign that you go to Coventry University.
You can have pres at yours and then head to Broad Street, sure. But that 1AM train curfew makes the journey far less appealing. Getting smashed may cost a £50 taxi home, when that could be better spent on three bottles of vodka and mixers.
Fleur East and Conor Maynard? There was that one guy who was dancing in a balloon or something? It’s a spectacle to gather for, that’s for sure.
It’s probably a Freshers thing? Who knows.
But the walk felt like a lot and you got tired of going in circles after an hour or so.
However, see below. What does that even mean if the city doesn’t really exist?
The response will be something like “Yeah, nice campus there! Lots of students, and it’s actually won Modern University of the Year a few times!” But maybe less enthusiastic than that.
They’re free, you’re only planning to sit in your room in PJs and binge Netflix anyway, and you still won’t go. Moodle advertisers have no hold on you!
Best starve yourself all day to get in the mood for this one. You’ll never finish that sundae otherwise.
And you burnt the grass by accident with your disposable BBQ from Wilkos.
I know for a fact the majority of us finished in April/May. Even the NHS people finished placement in July. It’s a sure sign that you go to Coventry University. Can we just get our sub-par degrees already?!
