Students walk past the camera and various students are interviewed outside. Two tutors are interviewed and give their opinions of the new university. They say that as they are starting out from scratch, every student is a freshman and so they have to show more initiative than in any other institution as there isn’t such clear guidance for them. A student is interviewed outside, where he says that the feel of the University is emerging even though they are still in prefabricated buildings. A girl says that all of the students there are the same age and at the same stage in their university careers. The previous student explains how they eat with the members of staff and visit many of their homes. There is a feeling of informality between the students and staff. Another student praises the lack of formality and how it differs from other universities. Students talk about what will happen when the university expands.

A student walks up the stairs in front of the camera.
