    Double major

    Ok... might need to explain this. Say a degree needs 144 credit points to be eligible for graduation. Most UOW courses only consist of say 116 credit points which contribute to the degree, leaving you 28 credit points to do any subject you wish, related to the degree or not. At UOW if you...

    Looking for roomies

    No, it was the car next to me. Oh and I found it halarious. It's funny how you can laugh when it isn't you.

    Double major

    are you at our uni T-mac01? Because 2 units is 1/3 of a subject, unless you're talking 2 subjects which would make more sense, but that's almost impossible to do due to UOW's very restricted summer school subject availability. And the extra major doesn't need to be squeezed in anyway... if you...

    Double major

    I changed a major and disappeared from the student registar, they found me, made me appear twice and tried to HECS me twice.... Give it time, they'll burn you eventually.

    Yeah, seriously, just do a STS subject as an elective and then make your mind up... you might like it or you might want to stab yourself in the eye, cut your ears off and slit your wrists...

    Double major

    You definitely can. No problem whatsoever (unless admin fucks it up of course :) ) You're simply double majoring in commerce. The only thing which will change is that instead of saving some credit points because of the overlapping of the 2 degrees, you'll simply have to do some more subjects to...

    Then try some STS subjects. They make PHIL subjects look like they're content filled, structured and totally practical.

    Minor?

    See above, it's just a matter of filling in the form and putting it in the box and praying to your respective faith/belief/ideology that admin don't fuck it up.

    The Official Football Thread 2006/2007

    Barca could do what Newcastle does, just let one/two/fourteen of the players get injured and solve that whole problem of fitting certain players in the team. One game last season NUFC fielded 5 left midfielders.

    I don't really care if Henry leaves Arsenal, but who's replacing him? I hope of Newcastle's sake it isn't Owen. I can see Owen being worth 12-15 goals to the toon next season and I definitely don't want that to go elsewhere, especially for a 9mil buyout clause.

    Welcome to the arts faculty, where most of it is useless.

    Biotechnology

    Yeah, from what I've been told by friends doing it, it's a pretty classy establishment and the quality of the course is why it's popular (and with a high UAI). One of the reasons for its quality is that the current person/s in charge of distributing funding to faculties in UOW is from that field...

    No Josie, he played it because he's seriously messed up. He had us sitting on the floor in a circle one tutorial for STS300 a few years back and letting us talk about our 'feelings' on the world. He's a crazy man.

    Arts faculty tiny shorts-wearing Brian Martin kept up his bizarre antics when he used an entire SMAC lecture to play the flute to an audience confirming that he really is losing the plot.

    Gpa??

    or even just search the Boredofstudies forums... you're not the first person to have the problem so i'm sure it has a thread dedicated to it.

    120 in a 100 zone...am i fucked?

    That's totally untrue. You can get done by a fixed speed camera under the 'Less than 10km/h over the limit' which comes when the mail you the fine. It's a $77 fine plus 3 demerits (or 1 demerit if in the ACT).

    Newcastle's is just inverted from last years, so a bit more black this time around. It's turned out quite good. And we've now got a collar too!!! Plus you're right, Arsenal's kit for next year looks horrible.

    This one of the things I am liking so much about Big Sam managing over Newcastle and Mike Ashley buying out the club. I know Newcastle for the next 3-4 years won't be title contenders but it'd be stupid to think we could be. What's happened is we've now got a prudent owner with a good manager...
