Would you please elaborate on this? — cBuckley ( Talk • Contribs) 03:17, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
Phrases such as these don't seem very neutral to me:
"Hild Bede's sporting reputation is without an equal"
“a proud record that belies the club's cavalier and laid back attitude, which nevertheless consistently produces great teams and great results”
“Many old boys of this great institution”

May not be neutral but they're all true :) -- Ex Hild Beder
May be deliberate but the inscription of the motto as i remember it is "eadEm mutata resurgo" Which also makes more sense within Latin. Could anyone confirm either way? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.234.4.1 ( talk • contribs) 15:30, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
A phrase in common useage within the college and University is "the Mighty Hild Bede" this is how it is refered to within the Durham Student Union Meetings, and should be amended. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.234.4.76 ( talk • contribs)
I think this page needs a revamp. For one the "Students" section is really a sports section and the think it needs references to other things such as some of the other societies and clubs in the college such as the chapel choir, bede film soc, the vernon arms, musical society, and other sports such as badminton, squash etc. I am a current student but dont have much knowledge of most of the sports aspect so if anyone else would like to update that otherwise i will rename the "Student" section to sports and remodel the page a little.

I can't help thinking that there is a need for separate pages to give the histories of the predecessor colleges, the College of the Venerable Bede and St Hild's College. That would also make the Alumni section more mangeable, as some of the alumni cited died before the College of St Hild and St Bede was founded, so it all looks a bit odd. Sadly, I do not have the knowledge or ability to start this off! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.75.136.95 ( talk) 02:25, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
while St Hild's College, for women, was founded in 1858 and was associated with the University from 1896. Graduates of St Hild's were the first female graduates from Durham in 1898.
I work with mapping, I went to Hild Bede, I'm not an idiot, but can someone explain to me how the map in the infobox is any use at all?

In this interview with the Newcastle Chronicle he denied having been a student at the college.
http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/whats-on/arts-culture-news/sir-roger-moore-remembers-co-12140786
Do we have any credible source he was a student? I note both the current sources are down. 85.237.234.175 ( talk) 21:06, 14 June 2017 (UTC)
SPACKlick ( talk) 11:34, 6 July 2017 (UTC)
The page about Moore himself says he was at RADA three terms after his 1945 extra work then went to national service on 21 September 1946 (so at the age of 18 years and 11 months). What academic year are we claiming he was in residence then? 88.212.36.193 ( talk) 22:52, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
So there is no source that predates it being added to wikipedia on 25 March 2007 by IP address 129.234.4.1 (i.e. random Durham user) then? I was a student at Hild Bede in the 1990s (and an active member of the college James Bond Society) and I can tell you that nobody there had ever heard of this at the time. Also neither of the sources currently used give a year. The rogermoore.org fan page also says he studied at Hild Bede rather than just Bede, - if we take that as a reliable source it would mean he was at the college some time after he made "The Man with the Golden Gun." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.212.36.193 ( talk) 20:33, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
To add to the above, the Roger Moore claim was removed in May 2007 (along with the claim that the horse Red Rum had attended the college) and that would have been all if "journalists" had not proceeded to copy the story into citable newspapers. I'm not going to remove it but I am going to add a note that it is denied by Moore himself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.212.36.193 ( talk) 21:00, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

Is there a source for him attending the college that predates it being added to this page as unsourced information on 13 December 2010 by IP address 213.106.233.97 ? The current source does not specifically say he was at Hild Bede (and is also absurd - as if the people selling rooms have done independent research into college records rather than just repeating what they have heard elsewhere) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.212.36.193 ( talk) 21:38, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
