My experience at LIS

Ikra, 1st year

Ikra's A-levels:

  • English literature
  • Economics
  • Maths
  • An EPQ

I took a gap year before joining LIS and worked at Barclays CIB where I worked in financial tech. Lover of poetry, cars and music.

Could you talk a little more about how you’ve found student experience during your first year at LIS?


What would you say to someone who is skeptical about the LIS course?

Be open minded. This university isn't for everyone and it's not supposed to be, there's nothing like this in the UK. The model of education you know and have been exposed to isn't a comparison for this university which means sometimes you might think "what am i doing" but bear with it, it comes together.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
