I changed the image for Grizedale college. The former image was mainly of George Fox, with just the Porters Lodge of Grizedale in view, which is part of the newer buildings anyway. The image I replaced it with shows the Grizedale courtyard, which I feel is a more representative image of Grizedale. If anyone disagrees with this, please comment! Darksun 20:58, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * We should probably get rid of it again, since the buildings have been demolished. There's not really much you can photograph now that they're gone, though. DE 20:57, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll try and snap one of the bar at some point, or possibly the porter lodge. --88.110.30.30 19:00, 21 January 2007 (UTC) (That was me --Darksun)
 * I'd suggest pictures of both old and new Grizedales. For most graduates it's still the old one that's 'our' Grizedale.82.24.122.84 (talk) 17:39, 20 March 2016 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Grizedaleboar.png
Image:Grizedaleboar.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Motto
Is there any proof that the motto stated here is real? I'm in Gz and didn't know that we had a motto. (btw, that ain't real Latin) :P

Yeah, I don't think thats the real motto. I was in Gz in the class of '07, and I don't remember that. I'm guessing it's a joke. It is "mock" latin, and is supposed to mean "Don't let the bastards grind you down". Allthough I wouldn't put it past Grizedale to use that as its motto. 150.204.105.226 (talk) 13:47, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I think Nil Illegitimi was mentioned in the speeches at the 40th Reunion (possibly the '70s one), so it was apparently used at some point.

Bar
The bar was definitely known as 'The World's End' through the mid Eighties at least, as it was the southernmost bar on campus. My memory says there was actually a painted board saying that behind the bar, though that's a good few years back nowadays. No idea when it was retitled as 'Depravos'', though I would think that would have to be post Graham the barman (who would have had words to say at the idea of 'his' bar without bitter on tap!).
