AfD for Turing College

The "Articles for Deletion" discussion about Turing College may be of interest to those watching this page. Cheers, XOR'easter (talk) 20:16, 14 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Semi-collegiate

What does this mean? This could do with some clarification. Either it is collegiate or not. --Aloneinthewild (talk) 18:40, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

Aloneinthewild The edit summary here says "Added semi-collegiate as it has 6 dependent colleges, but they are not fully independent. Please see Collegiate University list". I agree that semi-collegiate is confusing. TSventon (talk) 11:44, 8 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Colleges

According to the colleges page and the list of college masters on the university website, the university has six colleges: Eliot, Rutherford, Keynes, Darwin, Woolf and Turing.[1][2] A 2020 book lists the same colleges.[3] The article also mentions Medway College and Park Wood College but does not provide sources. I suggest they should be removed unless/until independent sources can be found. Pinging Template:Ping as the largest contributor to the article. TSventon (talk) 15:18, 8 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

Check first before rushing to deletion. But Park Wood is a self-catering village and Medway is another campus. I've not had much contact for some years but I suspect this may be a confusion with the way the students' union incorporates representation of those sites into the college committee structure.

I wanted to note the problems with the information about colleges on the talk page, I am happy to leave the information in the article unchanged if it is not possible to improve it.
All I have found is mentions on the university website, I haven't found anything from the SU. I have found a Global Learning News post from 2023 listing eight colleges,[4] so the number may have changed recently, or the information may be confused. TSventon (talk) 21:34, 8 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
