[edit] Merger; notability

I merger Kangela into here, since the notability of that subject is by no means established. See the notability guideline.

Also, this article on RCSU does not cite any independent sources, so its notability is unclear. I will tag it accordingly. Please add independent sources to avoid deletion. --B. Wolterding 15:21, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, what independent sources do you require? It is ROYAL, it has a royal charter. See http://www.rcsu.org.uk, in particular http://www.rcsu.org.uk/index.php?gadget=StaticPage&id=history

H.G Wells (yes the author of The Time Machine amongst others), is a former student of The Royal College of Science, a constituent college of Imperial College London (in 2007 the 5th ranked university of the world ((caveat I am an ex student lol)), and awarded (at least in my time as a student there in the mid 80s) degrees of A.R.C.S. (Associate of the Royal College of Science) in addition to B.Sc's. RCSU is the student union of RCS, and recently reinstated (history and culture will out over new fangled changes): http://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/forum/1/35/thread.html

I am actually an ex-editor of the in house RCSU newspaper, Broadsheet, which not only is still going, but has a history far longer than wikipedia. Read and learn.
