High 5: Dr Ray Harris
Published Date:

Dr Ray Harris, principal and chief executive of Edinburgh's Telford College, chooses his top five most iconic symbols in Edinburgh.
1 The Parliament Building. Not for its architecture but because it has become a place for the public and special interest groups to meet MSPs – and they have reciprocated by welcoming and listening to us.
2 Minibuses emblazoned with PEP. Every day in north Edinburgh I see these on the move and it reminds me of the excellent work carried out by projects such as the Pilton Equalities Project.
3 The Hub inside Edinburgh's Telford College. Once it filled with students and community visitors, it came alive.
4 The cosmopolitan nature of Edinburgh. We welcome several hundred international students to the college every year.
5 McEwan Hall. Perhaps this is the grand old lady of Edinburgh halls, where generations of students have solemnly graduated.
