The St Andrews Questionnaire

If St Andrews could have an anthem, what would it be?

3 things you like most about St Andrews:
The walks, the tradition, my friends.

3 things you like the least about St Andrews:
Arrogant peers, windy days, how far it is from home.

Favourite spot in town:
Close tie between the Botanical Gardens and the pier.

If St Andrews could be a food, what it would be?
A fudge doughnut...a deep-fried fudge doughnut. With curry sauce.

Best lesson you've learned so far:
Always wear a 'friend condom'.

Favourite time of the year:
May. Sunlight at 4am, renewed hopes of passing exams after the dip, the prospect of summer...all in one.

If you could change anything about St Andrews, what would it be?
I would build a proper club. Three years of BOPs and failed nights out at The Lizard just don't do it for me any more.

Best experience:
Close tie between the foam fight on Raisin Weekend and the Come Dine With Us competition :)

What advice would you give to people coming to St Andrews for the first time?
Don't pay attention to what your mother says; no matter how shitty the weather seems from afar, bring your best clothes. Yes, the hiking outfits will come in handy (if you want to do the coastal path) but jeans and a hoodie just don't cut it out in this town. The last thing you want is to be mistaken for a JSA.
Also, do as many extra things as you can in your first year. It's such great fun, and you won't have as much time to do stuff later on. Apologies if this sounds like something the Careers Centre would say.


And you? What answers do you have for the St Andrews Questionnaire?
