The College of Blaiddwyn at UNM is in one of those
'ungrowth' spates... just enough attending to cover the
offices with one or two left over as actual students.
However, there are a ton of 'friends of blaiddwyn' who
hang out with the College, who once were students in the
College, and the requisite faculty/staff advisor.
When I first joined Blaiddwyn, lo these 15 yrs ago,
neither I nor my husband were students or employees, we
just liked the atmosphere and family feel. It was big on
students then, maybe 20/25, many of whom have gone on to
peerages.
Ebb and flow, come and go... but there has always been a
Blaiddwyn in some form for the last 15 years.
