At Sheffield all students have now been found digs, but only by placing many of them far from the university. Some students are living eight miles away and there have been many complaints of sub-standard digs: . “There is no bath in my digs. In fact there is 110 running water at all upstairs. I have to wash with a jug and a bowl of water. The landlady only brings water up in the morning, so I have no wash at night,” was a complaint by one first year student.
