the bit about the QAA rating that was deleted needs to be replaced, in the 2006/2007 prospectus loads of courses are listed as 24 out of 24 rating from the QAA, as well as many others 22 and 23 rating.

Need to be change and I can't access this area to edit.
[edit] University ratings
(I'm posting this to all articles on UK universities as so far discussion hasn't really taken off on Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities.)
There needs to be a broader convention about which university rankings to include in articles. Currently it seems most pages are listing primarily those that show the institution at its best (or worst in a few cases). See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Universities#University ratings.

[edit] 'Campus' sections
A lot of the material here was a copyight violation from the University's 'History' page, and this subpage. I've removed it, but those pages are a good source (if properly cited) for adding more material to this article. When doing so, please consider whether the material would be better deployed in London Guildhall University or University of North London. Thanks — mholland 09:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Alumni
The entry for Sir Mark Thatcher (listed here) does not record him as having been to any university.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bill Tegner (talk • contribs) 23:23, 22 February 2007 (UTC).
- Indeed. Mark Thatcher did not go to university, but he did fail his accountancy exams three times. He must have taken them somewhere. Anyone got a source? — mholland 23:50, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

- Prior to the 1992 Education Act turning the polytechnics into universities someone who went to one of the institutions that now form London Met could quite legitimately be said to have "not gone to university". That said I have no idea one way or another where Mark Thatcher sat for his accountancy exams. Timrollpickering 11:40, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
