Help me!
[edit]I have just referenced a Student Experience Survey result where Abertay ranked 66= http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/news/times-higher-education-student-experience-survey-2015-results/2019564.article. I was hoping to use the University ranking box for this - but I don't understnad how this works! When I add in a line | Times Higher Student Experience = 66=... it doesn;t show up in the output... so there's something hidden going on I think?
THanks for any help!
