Name of the college

[edit]

The college is named as "Leeds College of Art and Design" on its own web page, on its building (see photo), on the UCU branch website http://lcaducu.blogspot.com/ and in the Ofsted report at http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/oxedu_reports/download/(id)/85216/(as)/130547_284872.pdf . Please do not change it to anything else without producing evidence. PamD (talk) 11:16, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I've found my own evidence - the college website has changed since I last looked at it, and the Independent says the name has recently changed. So I've moved the article to the new name. PamD (talk) 11:43, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

/* Notable alumni * Green Gartside (Scritti Politti)

[edit]

Should Green Gartside (or Scritti Politti if you will) actually qualify as a notable alumni? Firstly most accounts seem to imply he became bored with art school and dropped out to move to London. It's not entirely clear if he finished the course. I would have thought completion of a course would be a prerequisite for being an alumni of any institution. Secondly, his page and the Scritti Politti page say he studied art at Leeds Polytechnic/Leeds Met. and links to Leeds Met page, not here. As this article mentions some of the College's teaching was ceded by the Polytechnic, should Gartside class as an alumni of Leeds College of Art at all?
