How They See Us
I was appalled to see how some douchebags see us Warwickians
Before I proceed, take a look at this atrocity.
All this time, I thought that there were absolutes in the system of university reputation. Warwick are the hip, new kids — a university full of left-wing liberals who weren’t stuffy enough to get into Oxford and Cambridge. We always used to jest that Tom Etheridge was adding -Smythe to his surname to further his chances of getting into Oxford.
But no, it’s not absolute. Stuffiness and surname-double-barrelled-ness is just relative to how far down the PECKING ORDER of universities you are.
Well FUCK YOUUUU.
Our Crest is Dumb
Man, we have a stupid crest. It doesn’t look professional at all. It looks like it was thrown together by a GCSE student studying… I’m gonna say ICT. And the project is to make a web page for a fictional university. It looks like it was just put together as a by-product of some other, bigger project, and serves only to fill a space whilst not expecting to be judged.
Well, it looks dumb. Why is there two of the atom logo? The bottom left one is far too big for its section on the crest. They could have made the badge a bit bigger or changed the space ratio a bit. But why is it there twice? Damn it. The only advantage to it is that it looks a bit like that atheist symbol… This one:
Next, there are too many colours on this. It can’t be a really effective logo when it’s so busy. I know it’s not meant to be a proper logo, but god damn it, why does that mean it has to look so shitty? It will go on my degree certificate possibly? I don’t even want a degree if the certificate has to be stained with this bullshit. Ah man, why even bother with university?
