    Residential Colleges...

    For me, I have a great social life with my friends from uni... I sort of find the "imposed" social life at college a bit strange, and the routine would quite frankly not work for me... working two jobs plus uni I would never be at dinner at 5pm. I got really involved in the res events at...

    Australia's Brainest Kid

    What is it about this show, it's quite addictive. My flatmates and friends were all sitting around together the other night watching it.... quite hilarious that a game show featuring primary school aged kids could entrance a group of bogan uni students.

    can a student have both Hecs-help and fee-help?

    It probably just uses up your commonwealth learning entitlement faster or something if it is over the regular study load. Is there a hotline or something you can call to ask?

    Residential Colleges...

    Have you been on campus at either of the unis.... there are other things too like value for money (what do you get for your fee, what is the size of the rooms, what is the food like, what is included), do you want to live somewhere rowdy or more studious, location (USyd is closer/more accessible...

    help:taking a break from work for xmas?

    Ask for leave....if they say no just quit. Or say, look I'm really sorry but I have no choice, if I cannot get leave I will have to resign, can I contact you when I return to see if you are looking for staff? Because maybe they will need someone and if you have been a good worker and you are...

    Casuals

    Um I don't know if you really have any rights legally but it all comes down to how reasonable the employer is. My rule is usually if they ring up and it's not going to be a major pain or I have free time I do the shift, so that if they ring up next time and I have something on I can try and say...

    Question about Youth Allowance

    The dole and youth allowance are the same thing until you turn 21. If you are under 21 and unemployed you get youth allowance, if you are over 21 and unemployed you get Newstart. But just ring up centrelink or read the website, as people said it depends on your parents income unless you have...

    Nosh

    Hey, I worked for Bluestone/ART throughout the year, they are hassling me to do the grand final but I really can't be bothered, when I did Bledisloe it was such a saga! Plus I have two other jobs at the moment. Do you do many shifts at convention? Those massive cocktail parties are always...

    Residential Colleges...

    I think you would enjoy college life at either of the unis and you should pick based on your course and not the colleges. College life is what you make it- if you make an effort to participate you will have fun and make friends no matter what college you are at. I live in UTS Housing, which is...

    smoo and bbq pork buns

    I wish our food court wasn't so skanky and gross. I call it salmonella city, one day my friend and I saw a cockroach sitting on the lasagne at that place that sells pasta. Ew.

    So sick of Credo/Anti VSU/Sexuality Awareness type people

    As long as you don't harass me to sign over my credit card details or loiter outside Broadway then it's all good, more power to you.

    Why I think Kyoto is Bullshit.

    Did anyone watch the Four Corners special on Nuclear Power about a month ago? It was very interesting.... I certainly learnt a lot from it. Personally I think a major pressing issue is the development of alternate fuels for cars etc like hydrogen fuel cells etc. I think we do need more...

    Indian Girl Commits Suicide over one rupee

    Just because it happens all the time doesn't make it right though.

    Desperate Modern Tutoring

    Just try and do what you can, if things don't work out with the UAI there are always other ways, so don't stress too much it won't help. There are lots of back doors you can find, so just see what you can do and stay calm. It sucks that you don't get support from your school or teachers...

    So sick of Credo/Anti VSU/Sexuality Awareness type people

    I KNOW! Charity people really shit me, because sometimes they are outside the tower, then outside railway square, and outside broadway shopping centre, outside the library, and outside market city.... for christs sake! Argh. I have no money, especially not for you to take monthly deductions...

    Desperate Modern Tutoring

    Gee that really sucks with your teacher. Surely your school should have some textbooks on the topic lying around in the history staffroom? Ask if you can borrow one... a textbook is probably a good start. Also, have you posted this ad on the tutoring board you may have more luck in there...

    Charles Sturt University

    CSU Albury is really good for health sciences like podiatry, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech pathology. Also not bad for teaching. CSU Bathurst is good for journalism.... but UTS is better hehehe.

    Heil Hitler

    John, the insults must stop all together... not just if you feel they are not justified. There have been plenty coming from your side as well, and people in glasshouses should not throw stones. If the thread continues in the current trend I will close it this afternoon.

    Antisocial Behaviour (in Victoria)

    Don't the grannies already vote for the Libs anyway? Shouldn't they be trying to hook in the younguns.... like spend a bit of money on having a line where you can just call up and make stupid jokes when you are drunk on goon and some bureaucrat on the other end can pretend to care/be...
