2. President Clinton at Warwick in 2000
President Clinton at Warwick in You know if we can bring a sitting president to the campus, we must be doing something right.
The president went to Oxford, of course. We, like Oxford and Cambridge, are one of only five universities to have *always* been in all of the UK national media’s university rankings top ten. We also have joint PhD with Oxford.

3. Quick Facts
Campus built in 1965

150+ nationalities
1.04% drop out rate

The university tops five of our specialist subject tables this year – only two fewer than Oxford”

We’ve done amazingly well in such a short period and this has been recognised most recently via the University of the Year award in our 50th year. We’ve made phenomenal progress in just 50 years and are now comfortably ranked in world’s top 100 in the THE World Reputation Rankings (March 2015), THE World Academic Ranking (81-90), 61st in the QS World Rankings 2014/2015

Via REF UK Govt shares £2billion per year until 2020
Be brief on this one. In essence we have always excelled in research and we’ve done so again/
(FYI Bristol will claim 5th for research ‘intensity’ which is one aspect of the REF but in terms of overall GPAs we outrank ALL of the consortium)
