  A medium-large university, old by Mirror Coast standards — its oldest college dates to the twelfth century, and its newest to the 1960s. Strong humanities, a well-regarded philosophy department, a literature faculty that runs a steady pipeline into the Avenford press row, and a science faculty that has modernised quietly over the last forty years. The student population sits around eighteen thousand, a third of them from outside the region. Tuition is public and steeply subsidised; competition for entry is sharp. Professors tend to live in the old city and walk to work.
