    Plan to 'name and shame' domestic violence perpetrators

    Interesting replies. Does anyone here think that the domestic violence reform prejudices men as opposed to women? Does anyone think that the issue is non-political and is irrelevant to the state election? Does anyone have any suggestions on what would be best to combat domestic violence?

    To the shapers of the future - what's important to you??

    We'll quote you. But, like all newspapers, if there's a dispute about something being said, and if you wanted to complain or whatever, there's no record of you having said that at all then. Or it'll be incomplete.

    To the shapers of the future - what's important to you??

    To all those first-time or newer voters, What electorate are you in? What political issues are important to YOU for the upcoming NSW state election? And are the pollies making you all aware of the issues, or do you feel kind of lost? I'm actually a UTS student doing a story for the...

    Law Overview

    I turned up to two or three seminars in Legal Research and still got 69.... So if you turn up to a few more and actually study, it'd be easy to get a distinction. Well probably not easy, but still very doable. I've also done Torts and Contracts and the substantive law subjects are much...

    combined degrees - course structure

    You can study them seperately if you want. The only restriction is that you meet all the prerequisites/corequesites. Let's say you do Journalism/Law. Now you could organise your course structure so you complete all law subjects before doing any journalism subjects.The problem you would...

    boyfriends..

    Contradictions! You're 18 and you said it could be 2 years until you get married to him and "do it" and then finish off with saying you won't get married at 21. It's obvious here that someone is having second thoughts!

    Computers - windows

    Hey, but with Macs you get an ultra-funky keyboard. Oh, and the widescreen mac monitor looks fucken awesome. Oh yeah, and also, such powerful processors don't really provide any advantages either...except maybe to gamers (who ALSO have an extremely powerful graphics card). The whole lot of it...

    hay ho vsu has got to go??

    Not sure too who you are replying to (me or josiekiller...)...I assume me though. I'm not sure why I should bother replying to someone who needs to call me a moron (despite the fact that it is obviously you who did not understand me). But here it goes: No, I was not saying that if you stop...

    hay ho vsu has got to go??

    What about other important stuff (which, might i say, would cost a lot lot more than any soc ever would?) e.g. the gym (it's a great gym btw), legal advocacy? huh? Those two alone would cost a lot more than the silly societies. Now I agree with you that some societies...

    i'm so pissed at the system. I need to rant

    My advice for you is do an arts course (of your choosing) at some uni and then try to transfer. The great thing about transfer at UTS is that they allow a personal statement and/or a questionairre which gives you the chance to demonstrate how much you want to do the course. I was doing...
