RE: [kent-grads] Any university's collegiate system fading?

The comments about the twin fortresses are so true!  It brought back so many memories of my husband and I rushing to seminars, he assuring me he knew Elliot and Rutherford like the back of his hand but always getting lost anyway.  I'm embarrassed to say I was hauled into my tutors office for not showing up to the first two seminars of a particular course in Elliot - my excuse........I couldn't find the room!  Pathetic really.

Then there were the twin fortresses - Festung Rutherford and Stalag Luft
Eliot - while I had friends from those colleges they tended to be escapees.
We found the atmosphere very different especially at Eliot - almost a
distrust of outsiders which I suppose spoke volumes about the strength of
bonds within. Non-fortress people tended to dislike going inside - we were
never quite sure we could find our way out again

         Oh I so agree with you, Greg! Having to go to either of them for a seminar was fraught with danger - we always got lost and would we ever get out??? Sometimes we even formed chains!
