Not drowning. . .

Your whole academic life flashes past you: the successes, the failures, the good marks and the bad. Soon this will be an everyday experience for students at the University of North London, where student profiles will be on the Web from this autumn onwards. Students will be able to examine their academic records from anywhere in the world, but "need have no fears of a breach of confidentiality", the university says. Provided they look after their passwords, that is.
