Two campuses to photo - it should be possible to get a better picture of the Cambridge campus front than the current one; one showing more of the Cambridge buildings would also be good. TheGrappler 17:22, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- Out of curiosity, have you ever seen the Cambridge campus of ARU? This is probably the best photo of the place I have ever seen. There are really no good angles to photograph and there is quite little to see.
- I do agree that there needs to be a photo of the Chelmsford campus. youngamerican (talk) 00:40, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrting style
This article is unbalanced. Three out of six paragraphs are dedicated to just one of the universityﾕs programs without any mention of the excellence or otherwise of any of the many other programs offered, or of the overall academic ranking of the university. In addition, the paragraphs dealing with Ultralab are written in a breathy, over-exaggerated style more suited to a glossy PR brochure than an ostensibly neutral encyclopedia. One wonders, in fact, which member of the Ultralab team wrote this article, and also why they bothered considering that Ultralab already has a separate page dedicated to it.
[edit] Ultralab
It is well-covered in the Ultralab article. Only a mention is needed on this article. That fits with the WP:MoS. Additionally, the section reads like something from a PR statement and does not conform to npov. youngamerican (talk) 15:46, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- Good compromise, User:Mjeave. youngamerican (talk) 16:02, 27 May 2006 (UTC) Agree. User:Julian
[edit] Syd Barret
Should he be listed a an alumni now he is dead? Don't really know how that works.
[edit] Patricia Scotland
Patricia Scotland (Baroness Scotland) is listed as an alumna of this institution, but in her own article it is stated that she is a graduate of London University. Does anyone know why Anglia Ruskin is laying claim to her? RomanSpa 00:43, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Relationship with University of Cambridge
Some stuff needs to be written about the relationship between ARU and Cambridge. I know that a number of Cambridge student societies admit ARU students; some actively promote themselves at both universities. I don't know if there's much on the academic side though.
