10 Things You Will Never Hear A Student Say At University of Exeter

You’re bound to hear plenty of interesting things while you’re at college. However, these are things you will NEVER hear at University of Exeter.

1. I love Cardiac/Forum Hill

No student, especially a Birks-bound fresher, will ever utter these words. Cardiac hill leaves you sweating and experiencing severe breathing difficulties and well, Forum hill is just a deceitful bitch.

2. I almost put Plymouth as my firm choice

Any self respecting Exetah student knows that we are superior to Plymouth. Don’t even ask about Loughborough.

 

3. Yeah I didn’t really want to go to Oxford anyway

Exeter is notorious as being the home of many Oxbridge rejects. Yes, we know your life long dream has been shattered, but please spare us the ear ache. My sympathies for those in York or Durham.

4. I’ve never been to Surrey

Spend one Monday evening in Rosies and you’ll understand. Surrey is the major feeder of our student population, and by god don’t they let you know about it.

5. Wow what an ethnically/socially diverse community we have

The official University response to the perservering stereotype is that the figures do not correlate to the stereotype. However, try telling that to someone who doesn’t like avocados and has never tried a VK prior to university.

6. I never knew we had the highest student to tree ratio

Yes it’s true. Yes we all know it.

7. I just love the lemmy so much

Ah, the lemmy. It’s one of them paradoxical places, you realise how bloody awful it is but will you be there each Saturday? Of course you will.

8. I totally know why it’s called the “Student’s Guild” not Union

Apparently it’s something to do with a visit from Her Majesty. Who knows, could be pure shite for all I know.

 

9. The nightlife is LIT, there’s so much choice!

There are approximately 4 clubs, all shut before 3 am and all have copious supplies of VKs. Trust me, it’s a wild night.

10. I feel like we’ve got a good bond with the locals

The locals hate us. We hate the locals. No one really knows why, it makes no sense, but hey neither does University.
