As this is the time of year when theres a real difference in living in certain areas of town - due to most of the students having gone home i was wondering what everyone thinks of the effect they have on the city...

I like students personally.
They are lively when out on the town, and good for the city in diversity in culture and hygiene:P

Long may they dwell upon our streets.

Right on DB! I'm with you on that!

P.S. Did you contact the radio people BTW?

Oh, pants..... not yet! It's on my to do list for this afternoon. Been very busy of late!

Yep, they are very welcome in my book.

I know they are loud and boistrous and throw up all over the place :D but they bring life and vibrancy to the city. It's much too quiet when they've gone home.

I think students ok..... used to be one myself.
I work in Fulwood though, and it's so much nicer when the schools are shut, and no University students around. I can leave home EVEN later then and still get to work within my Flexi time (well most days anyway)

Students = Good in my opinion

Heck i want to be one next year in this very city ;)

yeah they're good but im biased ;)

I agree - despite many of them cannot communicate without shouting, they have a positive effect on the city.

yup.. of course they are GOOD.. hehehe :lol:
and they also increase economic activity.. hMmMmm.. and they also add to the atmosphere of the surrounding city..

Sounds to me like you work where I work. PCT? SCT?
I work for West PCT, and agree that it's easier to get into work when the students are off.
