necessary?

 

[tooheyz]

i would think that making friends in uni comes naturally...
coz ur all into the same thing and stuff..

but i dunno.. its scary aye? making new friends and meeting up with ppl u dont know..

but thats just like highskool

 

[Minai]

err..ur gonna have to make friends
not in lectures, but in tutorials definately, because, depending on your degree, u'll have groupwork tasks etc, which requires u to meet outside of uni time

 

[shattermenow]

ok thanks...do you know what sort of degree has less/no groupwork?

 

[Minai]

lol..I'm not sure, but in commerce there is a fair amount of it

C'mon guys, look at the bright side! A chance to put behind you a lot of the embarressing nicknames and events of the last 13 years and start afresh for the most part

Anyone who's going to Newcastle Uni just say so and I'll be friends with you!

B Science has workshops instead of tutes doesn't it?

 

[santaslayer]

It would be a good idea to make friends!

 

[jlh]

yeah make friends... it will make uni mure more enjoyable. and plus if you ever don't feel like turning up to a lec, you can borrow someones notes!!

I think the person sounded serious (I think).

Well in relation to group work, most courses make you do group work because it will benefit you in industry. I mean there aren't many jobs at all where you would work alone. You will need to talk to others to get your own job done, and usually work alongside other people.

Uni is a good time to experience group work and improve your social and teamwork skills before you get out in the industry. So I say take the opportunity to make friends at uni, work on projects with them, and enjoy yourself.

No, not really; just like studyin' really isn't necessary at Uni.

How do you make friends? I forgot...
Do you just go up to someone and say "wanna be friends"

what places on campus did you apply for natstar? Living on campus is a great way to make friends. It is good to have friends in your course...it helps heaps with assignments, studying, social life etc

 

[iambored]

of course it's necessary.

or do u mean it may not be necessary as you come for lectures and leave, you don't have to stay for lunch?

After a day of hard lectures (or even between lectures?) - The Unibar!
