[edit] Hills Road/Long Road 'debate'
I have just deleted some tendentious (and ungrammatical, badly spelled) nonsense about the differences between the two colleges. Could we perhaps stick to verifiable facts? Sjoh0050 09:45, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
- Fully agree with your delete. I wonder whether the remainder of the 'Hills Road/Long Road debate' section should be removed. It doesn't contain any information which can't be found elsewhere in the article and the whole premise that Year 11 students are deciding which one is better is, in my view, inaccurate. More of a case of which they are better suited to. Kelso21 00:13, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
There are differences and there IS rivalry between students. I copy an email sent to the whole of the college today 30/1 from the principal:
Yesterday, Monday 29th January, at about 1.20pm intruders came on to the College site and assaulted several Hills Road students.
Last Friday, 26th January, at about 4.20pm on the Hills Road pavement outside the College, several intruders caused a disturbance which led to injuries to a number of people, including Hills Road students.
The Police have been informed.
In both cases, we would like to know of any details that would help identify the intruders.
If you know anything, please either email Mr Glen Taylor or see him or the Principal, Dr Wilkinson, to pass on what you know.
It is important to have your help in keeping the College site as safe as possible for all members of the College community.
Thank you
Dr Wilkinson
Rumour has it that the people WERE long roaders. Surely this should be included? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JettWIlderbeast (talk • contribs).
No, wikipedia is not the place for rumour. And the letter would be more credible if you had a scanned copy visible on the web somewhere. Sjoh0050 13:40, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for your helpful update. Since then it has been confirmed it was long roaders. Also how would scanning an email be helpful? Printing it off then scanning it then uploading wouldn't make it any more viable. Just stupid. It is a real email. I do attend hills road I know the college Template:JettWIlderbeast
[edit] Sam Fenton-Whittet
Should this be removed? MikeyB! 23:52, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, it should... I've never heard of a Sam Fenton-Whittet, there are none currently at Hills Road (just checked my college e-mail address book) and if he is an alumni then there are other bigger names as he isn't amongst those I can think of with a room or a building named after him. Removed. - JVG 01:21, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- Maybe we should mention other alumni? The annoying dude who goes to hills should make a list of all the buildings/rooms when ur at school tommorow- i can think of colin greenhalgh (sp.) only, but i think he was a principle not a graduate of hills.
[edit] Image
The current image is copyright so will likely be deleted in the next day or two... In all my own efforts, I've been unable to find an aerial photo recent enough to include the Science Building at the back of the college built in 2003. I'm hoping someone else has some luck as I'm not having much... - JVG 01:32, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
