About The Towers
A real sociable atmosphere, the Towers offers a great sense of community where you can hang out with friends and feel the buzz of people sharing a flat together.
The Towers are just a two-minute walk to the centre of campus. The North Towers are located near
Essex Business School and the South Towers are close to the
Sports Centre and the Students' Union facilities.
Each tower is made up of flats to accommodate 14 to 16 students. The number and size of the facilities, such as rooms, showers and toilets, within each flat, can vary:
Central shared kitchen/dining area
Bedrooms located on either side
Shared showers and toilets on each side of the flat
Two lifts in each building and an emergency staircase
South Towers are available for undergraduates
North Towers are available for both undergraduates (Tawney, Raleigh, and Keynes) and postgraduates (Tawney and William Morris)
There are some smaller flats at either the top or the bottom of each tower, each accommodating between three and seven students and there are some
self-contained apartments.
2020.9 新聞： "40 George Square is a
tower block in
Edinburgh,
Scotland forming part of the
University of Edinburgh. Until September 2020 the tower was named David Hume Tower or DHT.
[1] The building contains lecture theatres, teaching spaces, offices, a café and a shop.
Contents
1NameThe tower was originally named after the
Scottish Enlightenment philosopher
David Hume, who was an alumnus of the university. In September 2020, in response to the
Black Lives Matter movement, the university announced that they would be renaming the tower to 40 George Square. The university stated that Hume's "comments on matters of race, though not uncommon at the time, rightly cause distress today."

尋人啟事!
希望香港的校友能幫我找郭氏父子 (郭亨Henry Kwok (父) 和Chee Kwok)的連絡資訊:
Chee, Kwok(我竟然忘記郭先生的中文名字，我給朋友的信中一定提到他)是1980級理論物理系學生 (BSc, Theoretical Physics. University of Essex ) 。我最可能在1978年早春時認識他。他可能在臺灣讀過書，所以對我很親切。在閒談之間，他知道我對英國史家湯恩比（Arnold Toynbee1889-1975年）很佩服，竟然回房拿出一本牛津大學出版社出版的Arnold Toynbee回憶錄精裝書 Experiences 送我。他說在倫敦特價買的，不成敬意。這本書影響我很深，所以我有專門的章節介紹它。
郭兄知道我10月中要回台灣，很熱心將他父親的名片給我，說可以到他香港的老家小住。他父親名字叫郭亨(Henry Kwok)，在九龍海運大廈一樓開一家「亨利燈罩」 Henry Lampshades，這種燈罩是西洋人的家居必備東西，伯父帶我參觀賣場，面積相當大。這也是我第一次住香港人的家，電視的廣東話當然都聽不懂。我第一次知道香港人吃蟹有的西化的全套到道具。當時香港廣建地鐵，領先台北十來年。我去過太平山，伯父介紹我去賣場買照相機和訂婚用鑽戒。
我至今最內疚的是，89-94年之間，我有十來次出差香港的機會，不過竟然沒去找郭伯父或小郭。至今都無法連絡上，很忘恩負義。

Houses in Silver End Village, Essex
Thomas Smith Tait (1882–1954) was a prominent Scottish modernist architect. He designed a number of buildings around the world in Art Deco and Streamline Moderne styles, notably St. Andrew's House (the headquarters of the Scottish Government) on Calton Hill, Edinburgh, and the pylons for Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Several original letters written by Freud
Peter Gay的【佛洛依德傳】的資料來源只寫Wivenhoe Park。我說Essex大學應該是收藏Freud檔案處。S. Freud的書信、多本書---也許近10本，是很重要Freud思想和傳記的資料。2015年11月20日上午12:43 ·

這幅畫經 E. N. Gombrich 的Art and Illusion 演講引用，更有名。前幾年借給Univ. of Essex 展半年。

From 1964 'Something Fierce' emerged in #Essex - a new university determined to look to the future and break with tradition.
Come along to an exhibition that explores the bold, brutalist sixties architecture of the University of Essex's Colchester campus.
2015.10.13 這張照片對我也新奇。Essex 大學座落Colcherster 的Wivenhoe Park，正面的房子是原所有人的家屋。我在1977-78年讀書期，它類似校友會館。1992年我與瑞士朋友到Ipswich開會，路過母校，問過該館租金，果然不菲。2012年開始招生，2014年第一屆畢業生。參考：http://www.edgehotelschool.ac.uk/about-us/history/ 我寫這，心中比較的是東海大學的校友會館和經營它的系。University of Essex 發文到 Colchester Campus Open Day

Wivenhoe House is a fully functioning hotel and restaurant and is home to our prestigious Edge Hotel School.

"If there is one thing you will protest about in 2016, what will it be?"
We spoke to Marco and Christopher who are campaigning to put more money back into student pockets by reducing rent prices:

Help our students change the world... #changetomorrow
A significant percentage of our undergraduate students come from families with a household income below £25,000 a year and we know this stops many of our students being able to take part in social action projects.
Today we launched the Essex Change Makers appeal. With your help, Essex Change Makers will enable our students to deliver social action on a huge scale for the benefit of our global community.

宿舍的受教才是真學問。

The Peregrine comes to Essex
To commemorate the launch of the J. A. Baker archive in the Albert Sloman library, leading conservationists and writers including John Fanshawe, Mark Cocker, and social historian Ken Worpole were amongst the crowd that gathered yesterday to celebrate the life and work of this reclusive Essex-based writer, who published one of the most influential book’s on our natural world - The Peregrine.

看展。S.O.S. Brutalism 是2014年德國建築博物館的國際會議。
那年歐美各國 (英法美等)，都有網頁介紹。從世界整體看，相當豐富、的多樣的水泥藝術遺產。
今年台北有展，過去徘徊一番。
