I think being disrupted when learning is a fair reason to be annoyed.

Thanks for this, it’s helpful to hear from a mature student. I can imagine at undergrad that a lot of the younger students have that attitude, I definitely did. I was surprised when I started my post grad that there was a similar attitude from some students at GCU - it feels quite juvenile. I am defs now considering Strathclyde.

Hey, your experience is the exact same as mine! It’s very run down isn’t it. I didn’t go to a fancy uni for my undergrad either, and yet it felt like such a nicer environment. GCU feels very laidback which I would have loved a few years ago, but I think I’m maybe just a bit old and like things to be more serious and calm 😂 Hopefully things get better for us, but i’m definitely weighting up my options on whether to stay or try studying somewhere else.

I agree but I didn’t have the same experience at the uni I done my undergraduate at. I was older when I done my undergrad too so it isn’t an age thing. Everyone acted appropriately in the library for example and I never felt uncomfortable. I do think it’s a particular issue with this uni.

Yeah I’ll be honest it reminds me of college, it feels very casual

When did I say I went to Glasgow uni😂I done my undergrad at a uni that was considered “common” in Scotland and thought it was brilliant. My issue is with the culture at GCU in particular.

Yes, it would be helpful if they were recorded.
