South Mimms U
The university where the subjects other educational institutions won't touch are taught, debated, and laughed at. You'll laugh and learn at the same time. We're real but we're not real. We take thought to its logical limits in the service of stretching your mind and opening new ways of thinking. No subject is taboo, no conclusion too weird. Join us and 'think different'.

Episode 12
Having trouble getting up in the mornings even though you have an alarm clock, a phone, and maybe even a dawn simulator? All you need is a Knocker-Upper. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, Knocker-Uppers walked the streets tapping on clients' windows to get them up for work in (mainly) working class districts near to factories. One of our academics at South Mimms U decided to revive the profession. He's also developing new forms of sound-based ways to help people get to sleep or stay concentrated when they work. Take an early morning walk and find out more...
The only university that makes you chuckle AND learn at the same time.
