I've also had friends study there more recently, and have said much the same, it's hard to get information out of the staff as to what is going on at any one point.
On the flip side, the lecturers employed for both nursing and comp-sci (the areas that I and my friends have had experience with), are good and knowledagble in their fields.
The other big issue is parking, if you drive, despite the out of town location, there's sod all parking places, and those that are available are expensive. There are bus services, but even those aren't particularly useful as the nearest parking sites are all commercial places with CCTV. There's rumours of a park & ride service, but I could never get any information about it out the admin staff.
