  • Tyndall's Memories 1958
    Sixty years of Academic Life in Bristol A. M. Tyndall [The following talk was given to the Forum of the Senior Common Room of the University of Bristol on 10 March 1958 by the late A. M. Tyndall, who was at that time Professor Emeritus of Physics, having joined the staff in 1903, been Professor of Physics from 1919 to 1948, and acting Vice-Chancellor 1945—46. The text appeared, in slightly shortened form, in 'University and Community', edited by McQueen and Taylor, 1976: a collection of essays produced to mark the centenary of the founding of University College, Bristol. The Editors were then extremely grateful to Dr Anne Cole for providing a transcript of a tape-recording of the talk; and so are we.] I thought this was going to be a conversation piece to a small group of intimate friends! As I look at the audience, I realise that I joined the Staff of University College, Bristol at a time when few of the men and, of course, none of the women were born! 1 was a student before that and in fact it will be sixty years next October since I first entered the doors of University College with the intention of studying for a degree of the University of London in a scientific subject. I was one of about 220 students in the University College at that time, of whom 60 were in what was really an affiliated institution called the Day Training College for Women Teachers. The income of the College was then a little under £5,000 a year.

  • Student Accommodation Topic Paper
    Bristol Central Area Plan Publication Version (February 2014) Student Accommodation Topic Paper Student Accommodation – Issues and policy approach 1. Introduction 1.1. Bristol is host to two major higher education institutions, the University of Bristol (UoB), located within the city centre, and the University of the West of England (UWE), located to the north of the city and within the adjoining authority of South Gloucestershire. Each plays a significant role in the city’s economy, helping to maintain Bristol as a strong centre for research and innovation, supporting the city’s knowledge and technology industries and contributing to local business through student spend. Both Universities also make a significant contribution to the city’s social and cultural life. Their sizeable student communities add much to Bristol’s reputation as a vibrant and diverse city. Their strong academic standing and international connections also strengthen Bristol’s status as an important European centre. 1.2. Bristol’s future success is linked to the continued growth and development of these institutions, supported through a positive planning policy approach. With this come challenges; in particular, the management of rising student numbers and the adequate supply of good quality accommodation in appropriate locations. In recent years demand for student accommodation has placed pressure on the local housing stock often resulting in perceived or actual harmful impacts on communities accommodating students, especially in areas close to the UoB. With aspirations for increased growth the council has a clear and robust policy strategy that addresses such issues whilst also supporting the development plans of these important institutions.
