My theory is someone has an assignment due and decided this was how to get out of it.

(I have an assignment due Thursday, so if it could stay down a few extra days so we get an extension that would be great)

They'll probably say everyone should've been prepared for iLearn to be down...

Sick leading up to the due date? Should have submitted sooner.
Unit convener forgot to make the submission link active? Should have submitted it sooner.
War delcared with North Korea? Should have submitted it sooner.

On another note, just got onto ilearn. Still saying it has an outage, but it appears normal!

Apparently the silent space in the library doesn't apply to the quiet rooms up the back who keep having conversations with the doors open

i am not irrationally angry right now

(edit: I typed that it caps and it didn't work )

Lololol this day just gets better and better.
Got put in the jury roll.

Used up all my"unavailable" time just on exams and needing to be at uni in order to present shit and not fail.

Watch as I get called up straight after exams. Uh

"In this weeks tutorial we're going over the assignment solutions so you can see where you went wrong and get feedback"

lol tutorial is already over and we still haven't got marks. (Not that i actually went to class but i knew we wouldn't have them so whats the point?)

This unit is the worst run unit I have done and you should all never do it (ISYS224). Legitimately drop out of university rather than attempt this unit. It is abhorrent.

IF YOUR GOING ON A LIBRARY TOUR, COULD YOU NOT TALK AT THE TOP OF YOUR VOICES AS YOU WALK THOUGH?

It's a library people, A LIBRARY!

 

[Anthel]

I honestly hate library tours, its the last thing tired, angry, distressed students catching up on 7 weeks on content need.

 

[ilikecats]

I think it was GLP introduction day or something which is even worse. If you intend to come here, at least be respectful?

The library will now be repurposed as a significant proportion of students enjoy talking within the library.

There literally the MUSE building and the new place for societies to hang. Leave me to my miserable peace and quiet

Well at the moment, the upstairs of where Frank (the bear) lives is quiet and deserted.

I was going to ask why Frank was moved, but I've realised they're renovating his normal home

 

[Orwell]

I went to orientation today and I actually really enjoyed myself.

However, on my way out I picked up a copy of Grapeshot and I could barely read the headings without feeling nauseous. What's the general consensus on this publication around campus?

I found it so explicit and vile but I am a conservative.

 

[ilikecats]

So it was Orwell being noisy in the library! (I was the one giving off the massive death stares. Hi!)

As for Grapeshot, I've never actually seen a copy in the stand at E4A. But even then, it's a student magazine yes? So probably people who want to be journalists writing about whatever "interesting" topic they want to talk about. Obviously they are free to write about any topic of their choosing, and some people will not agree with that content.

Personally, I just follow MQ pages on social media to keep up with what's happening around campus. It's not really my cup of tea either, so I just follow what i like.

 

[BLIT2014]

Not a real fan of Grapeshot, most of the times I've picked it up haven't found anything that grabbed me. Still think its important that the University has a "free" press on Campus. The Uni does restrict it from publishing articles from time to time (e.g weren't allowed to run an article on campus wide rape and harrassment, and have been restricted on gaining access to the src meetings) and recently the Uni has forced a Grapeshot editor to step down.
