I'm possibly going to make some more changes to this page, as it seems like a slightly random collection of things and not a lot of fact.
The site was purchased originally, not rented from Trinity College (I'm not sure who it was bought from, but it wasn't Trinity). There is no evidence at all the site was designed as a madhouse. If anyone would like to provide any evidence for that it can go back in, but from the various histories of the college I've never heard such a thing.
That "unoffical song" I believe must have only existed for a short time, as I went to Girton and never heard it. Also do we care what the sun said in some random article? Mrjeff 14:11, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Girton song
Would be good to find out roughly when this is from, I'm a 4th year student & its been around since I've been here and when i was a fresher it was known by everyone in higher years... Which only puts it back to prob at least 7 years... Maybe we can track down when it originated? 131.111.8.104
We sang that song in freshers week last term! I like the entry, it was up to date - good effort.
I sang the song throughout my time at Girton including on the steps to Senate house at graduation!
[edit] external reference removed
I've removed the external reference to the varsity (Student newspaper) article - this is a minor event of little relevance and a clear example of sensationalist reporting. The selection of just one (negative) press article is also hardly neutral.
Furthermore, the case has now been dropped by the CPS. SJMurdoch 11:16, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
