Kingston University in general

There is a rampant culture of plagiarism at Kingston University. Many students just copy each others work and hand them in as their own. No one gets into trouble over this, cause they want everyone to pass or the staff will lose their jobs. All of the modules I took were really easy, and the marks were very high for almost everyone, even if they barely did the work. There is a lot of racism and sexism at the university. Staff members don't treat minority students well, and women are frequently ogled by male lecturers. Muslim students are not allowed to make up work during Ramadan or other holidays. And many of them are marked more strictly than white students. I ...  Read the complete review

Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Many, many years ago (back when the dead sea was still only sick...), I was 18. Like many 18 year olds, I went to university. A couple of years later, I was 20.

As for the university itself, the main campus is fairly bland looking although that won't bother many people. It is extremely multi-cultural (like many London universities). At the main campus, I would estimate that 50% are asian, 5% oriental, ...  Read the complete review

Kingston University is situated on the outskirts of London in the picturesque and welcoming county of Surrey. There are four campuses that form Kingston Uni. They are Penrhyn Road, Kingston Hill, Knights Park and Roehampton Vale. I am more familiar with the Penrhyn Road Campus because that is the one that I study at and that is the one I will be sharing my opinion with you on. The Penrhyn Road Campus is situated in the heart of Kingston. It is located on a main road called....can you guess? Yes! Penrhyn Road! This campus is in a prime location where everything of interest is within walking distance. A ten minute walk from the uni can take you straight to the ...  Read the complete review
