Steve Betney (BSc Physics 1965) Thank you This magazine is the result of a request for memories of student life from alumni of The University of Sheffield who graduated in the years 1965 to 1984. The publication provides a glimpse into an interesting period in the University’s history with the rapid expansion of the campus and halls of residence. The eyewitness accounts of the range and quality of bands promoted by the Students’ Union are wonderful testimony to the importance of Sheffield as a city of music. And the activities of students during the Rag Parade and Boat Race would create panic in the Health and Safety Executive if repeated today. I wish to thank everyone who responded so generously with their time and sent us their recollections and photos. Just a fraction of the material appears here; all of the responses will become part of the University Archives.

  • The Campus in Context Opportunities + Constraints
    PART 2 THE CAMPUS IN CONTEXT OPPORTUNITIES + CONSTRAINTS 15 DRAFT for consultation Autumn 2014 THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD MASTERPLAN 2.1 Location The University of Sheffield central campus is located on A61 the west slopes of the city centre. The campus forms a city gateway characterised by a change from leafy suburbia to a more built up urban environment. The central campus is often identified as sitting within the St George’s Quarter of the city, A61 though reaches beyond this quarter in all directions, and as such has highly permeable boundaries. The central campus is divided by Upper Hanover Street, a north-south section of the A61 city ring road, and further divided by significant east-west roads A57 to M1 Western Bank and Broad Lane. The resulting campus zones are known as the east, north and west campus. The academic and social shape of these is described in later sections. On foot, the centre of the campus is approximately 15 minutes from the city centre, and 25 minutes from Midland Rail Station, the Bus Station and Sheffield Hallam University, which A57 A61 are east of the city centre.
