Current Status
The Grove Park Campus has eight buildings, five of which are named after rivers in North Wales: Alun, Brenig, Clywedog, Dyfrdwy and Elwy. For convenience, these are always referred to as A, B, C, D and E Blocks. The shell of the Memorial Hospital now houses the Art and Multi-Media departments, as well as the College's own Gallery (which hosts visiting artists), and the Regional Print Centre. This is known as MAB (Memorial Arts Building) or more simply, M Block. The old Grove Park school is G Block. There is a two storey Foodcourt, which houses Café Iâl (the College Refectory), a "Lifestyle Bar" (Café) for staff and students, a Student Café, Common Room and the studio of Radio Yale.
Yale has a second campus at Bersham Road, Wrexham (53°02′28″N 3°00′22″W / 53.0412°N 3.0060°W / 53.0412; -3.0060 (Yale College, Wrexham, Bersham Road Campus)), which handles the vocational courses, such as engineering, plumbing and bricklaying; this recently underwent an extensive redevelopment. Up until 2006, the college also possessed additional capacity in Roxburgh House, Wrexham, however the majority of the building was handed back to the vendor due to lease expiration. Previously the building handled apprenticeships and training.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or status:
“It is not however, adulthood itself, but parenthood that forms the glass shroud of memory. For there is an interesting quirk in the memory of women. At 30, women see their adolescence quite clearly. At 30 a woman’s adolescence remains a facet fitting into her current self.... At 40, however, memories of adolescence are blurred. Women of this age look much more to their earlier childhood for memories of themselves and of their mothers. This links up to her typical parenting phase.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)

Policemen so cherish their status as keepers of the peace and protectors of the public that they have occasionally been known to beat to death those citizens or groups who question that status.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
