Trouble In The University Of Law’s Facebook Paradise
Very occasionally, amid the extremely polite chatter of the University of Law's official Facebook page, a student loses it...
Law School Isn’t Just For Becoming A Lawyer, It’s For Finding Love Too
To date, no British law school has managed to successfully harness YouTube, with the College of Law's series of electric guitar-soundtracked videos about the joys of legal study emblematic of the general approach to the medium.
Clearly alternative strategies are required. Such as the one employed by America's William H Bowen School of Law, which has brought together a pair of its students to explain on camera how they fell in love after being drawn to each other by their shared appreciation of business law...
Hot Law Students Fuel Valentine’s Spike In University ‘Spotted’ Facebook Posts
Recently a wave of university-wide "Spotted" pages have appeared on Facebook – enabling students to comment anonymously on fellow library and lecture hall users.
In the run-up to Valentine's Day, the posts on these pages have grown increasingly amorous. As you'd expect, with their natural beauty, brains and charm, law students have been generating plenty of interest...

EXCLUSIVE: Cottaging At The College Of Law – Bloomsbury Branch Joins Inner Temple As Cruising Hotspot
On World Toilet Day – which we urge lawyers to engage generously with – we can reveal that the toilets at the College of Law’s Bloomsbury branch have become the latest legal destination to be targeted by cottagers. The news comes months after Inner Temple was forced to call in the police to deal with its own cottaging problem.
Like Inner Temple, the College of Law now features on the Cruising Gays website, with the basement toilets in the Bloomsbury centre’s building on Ridgmount Place recommended as a "discreet" location for hook-ups...
Leap To The Other Side: Camden New Journal Music Editor On How She’s Juggling Journalism And Law
For the past two years I have been leading a double life – part music editor, part mature law student, back to school after a decade as a journalist – dashing between two diametrically opposed cities to maintain a schizophrenic schedule, writes Camden New Journal music editor Roisin Gad el Rab
At times the lines have blurred...library sessions interrupted by music PRs calling to plug their latest project, newsdesk emails calling for copy 20 minutes before an advocacy exam, or telephone interviews with the likes of Boy George or Wretch 32 from my car in the College of Law car park.
At last, the hard work has paid off. In return for placing my social life on indefinite suspension, travelling between the bright lights of London and gentle, quiet Chester to study alongside students more than ten years younger than me and racking up nearly £30,000 in student loans, I received an LPC, GDL and LLB. Not a bad collection of qualifications for a mere 20 months work and a lifetime of debt.
