Campus rumour

according to campus rumour, the architectural style is inspired by a traditional Italian hill village

Sorry if I'm being dim, but is this just a joke? -- Oliver P. 02:22, 10 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Unfortunately not -- it's true! It has been modelled after San Gimignano with its squares and towers. Although the 60s re-interpretation is probably not everybody's darling! I've re-inserted this indeed true information. (David Haardt)

New information or section: Queen Anniversary Prize

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

As you can see from my biography I work at the University of Essex and I am trying to observe Wikipedia's CREWE recommendations for proposing amendments to the article for the University of Essex. We've just been awarded a Queen Anniversary Prize and i wanted to highlight this.

Suggested text:

In November 2017, Essex was awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher and Fusther Education for "authoritative social and economic research to inform the policies of governments for the improvement of people’s lives"^[1]. The award particularly recognises the international impact of the Institute for Social and Economic Research^[2] at Essex. In 2009, Essex received a Queen's Anniversary Prize for "advancing the legal and broader practice of international human rights" ^[3] for the work of the Human Rights Centre at Essex^[4]. --Ben Hall at Essex (talk) 00:18, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Conflicts of interest

Some sections are looking more and more like university marketing material. I would suggest involved editors use the requested edit function before making large changes to this page. Aloneinthewild (talk) 12:07, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Governance

The article itself correctly shows the Chancellor as "TBC," But the box at the bottom (which is saved somewhere else, I presume) states that John Bercow is Chancellor. Bercow resigned the post in November 2021 ExpatSalopian (talk) 12:57, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
