    Currently one friar gate campus shuts at 9 pm. Having this changed to a later time would be beneficial to students like myself who want to study in the later evening in the social space or even use the computers located on the 5th floor. With most of the student accommodation closer to One friar gate than main campus this would reduce travel times. This would also benefit students in exam season and give them the option to study in a appropriate environment past 9 pm.
