CS Undergraduate in Bham=Pub!
The first page of the CS website of the Uni. of Birmingham displays random images οf the links to the undergraduate/postgraduate and research sections of the site. I visited the website today and the following is a screenshot of the page I viewed.
So, the experience of a CS undergraduate in Birmingham=Pub drinking/eating/socialising…whatever… I don’t mind the message the image is trying to put across (even though I should probably mind)! However, I think the moment you visit the website this image strikes you as contradicting the site’s look and feel. What do I mean?

What the deuce do you want?
I recently went back home for a few days. A neighbour’s cat had given birth to four little kittens. Once I woke them up and one of them was really pissed off. I have never seen so much anger and a look of annoyance in a cat before! (S)He looks like he is saying: “why did you wake me up you*&%$?”. By the way, from another picture, it seems that this particular kitten has a mustache!
