- Sports:
- Facilities are shared with Merton college and are not bad.
|
- Bars:
- The Black Bottle bar is quiet during the week but really kicks off at weekends and is the scene of much drinking and debauchery. The college has a high foreign student poulation and this has a strong influence on the social scene, worth bearing in mind when you apply.
|
- Functions:
- Late night functions two or three times a term and a good live music scene. Also plenty of cocktail parties and jazz evenings. Ra ra rating 9/10 then.
|
- Major Social Events:
- Various black tie functions crop up from time to time but the number of students means that big events are limited.
|
- Campus Publications:
- A weekly newssheet available in lavatories. Light on Nobel prize winning literature but heavy on who snogged whom. Like Brasenose, Mansfield has a strong tradition in providing journalists for university publications.
