You sure about that ?
What about the "University" of Buckinghamshire ?

Council: (D) Two members of the non-teaching staff to be elected from among their own number by the members of the non-teaching staff.Maidmarian said:
Senate: (A) Academic staff members comprising 30% of the total academic staff to a maximum of 24 members, elected by the academic staff.
(B) Three registered students of the University of whom one shall be the President for the time being of the Students' Union, one shall be a Graduate Student, and one shall be elected by the members of the Students' Union from among their number;
Whereas at Trent, the Charter merely states:
Council (Board of Governors)- (c) such number of members, not exceeding twenty-four, as may be prescribed by the by-laws of the Board, elected or appointed for a term of up to four years in the manner prescribed by the by-laws of the Board.
Senate(d) such other persons elected or appointed in such manner as the Senate determines.
And I am reliably informed that the by-laws and senate have not prescribed or determined any elections. They're all "appointed".

I like Nottingham, it's got a really good vibe going. The press do like to talk about crime but that's lazy journalism and subtle racism if anything.
Seems like Beeston is a popular U75 hangout!

I'm from leafy North Notts and so Nottingham was where I went for my cool records and clothes and what have you, those several years back.
I think it's a brilliant city. The Old Angel is my favourite pub anywhere (8 Jolly Brewers in Gainsborough runs it close) and Selectadisc is yer one stop all-genre shop. The Uni sits in some considerable splendour I think, and Slab Square is surrounded by about 17 types of architecture in the buildings, even if 13 of them are horrid.
I've not lived there a whole lot admittedly: in Bestwood for about 5 months a few years ago, then West Bridgford with me foreign girlfriend and now I'm abroad. (With said foreign girlfriend who didn't want to live in Nott'm at the end of the day.
)
But if I were to come back to the UK it would be Nottingham.
You're all spot on about the city centre's chain pub nastiness though. That said most towns appear to be much the same now, in Blair's money-mad alcohol-drenched Britain of injustice and greed.
And I'm a Coventry fan, so the football gets right up my nose there too!

There are loads of fantastic and independent pubs/clubs in the centre of Nottingham. Neither Beeston or Bridgford are in Nottingham as the locals will tell you. Coventry? Lovely place

It was a good place (nice cider on tap) but there was a funk DJ 
.So we went to The Social instead, which was loud. But I got given £10 too much change on a round of drinks and the barman ran away before I could tell him so I dishonestly pocketed it. Allowing me to enjoy my evening all the more
Nottingham seems quite nice, I didn't get shot even once all weekend I was there!
The Arboretum is dead nice and there are some lovely places to hang out. I particularly liked Fade... and the Hard to Find Cafe.
Not sure why it has *such* a bad rep, certainly no worse than most UK cities I've been to.

Indeed not. Mike at The Social is quite generous. I'll pass on your comments

Did someone mention Long Eaton? Born and bred there ... ah, those were the days. The fond memories of the territorial turf wars between Roper and Wilsthorpe schools

Me nana lives in Beeston, I still go back a few times a year. My mum moved to Scotland a couple of years ago though, so I never go back to Long Eaton.
It's been too long since I went to Notts too, although I occasionally go to Derby en route to Mr VP's folks.
