Maybe Edinburgh wasn't so bad after all! :)

 

you are probably quite correct.


:D

 

It hadn't changed by my First Year (1968).

Neither, I seem to remember, had Edinburgh:D.

Thanks for posting!

Newington remained the same without any change to the clinical premises until the early 90s. The students attended Queen Margaret College college for lectures and tutorials. Crookston was by cpmparison a purpose build facility which was eventually out gown but certainly light years ahead of Lothian. Sadly Crookston fell into disrepair and was a shadow of its former glory by the time they knocked it down. Newington was a protected building and will be there yet.

Reminds me of CIT 93.

20 years goes fast.

The setting at CIT was picturesque by any comparison and at a time when it opened the state of the art. As the years passed and the double bone surgery theatre and orthotic labs were included it was well enviedas a centre of excellence. The changing politics of the Institute however and imminent closure ensured the centre did not enjoy further development.

Not saying it wasn't, but from 1 picture, clinic, patients, curtains white coats , could be any student clinic ,

That was the accepted clothing and the original HOD (John Gallocher) was Scots so transferred much of the traditions to Petone . Same thing happened in Oz :)
