Yes, what a practical idea. They should hire a guard at all the entrances to the SAM building, Conception Day, the Uni Bar, and all the other facilities and say "wait, you're not a member. Entry denied".CrashOveride said:

I know, eh? They charge for water at that burger place at sam, yet I can get it free from maccas...yellowbrick said:
Just give union cards to all members which are scanned upon purchases at said venues, or flashed on entrance to conception day. It's worked fairly well at usyd.PwarYuex said:Yes, what a practical idea.

If a scientist is not studying the world for what it is then their hypothesis is incorrect, the purpose of science is to explain what is.bscienceboi said:
But theres a lot that scientist dont know hence they come up with hypothesis'. Yes they do study the world for what it is but they not only explain what already exist but also provide pathways for the future. A lot of pharmaceuticals are not natural products of the world but manufactured material created in labs. If immunities didn't exist then what is there to allow us to survive.Calculon said:

And by then we'd realise that the payment to hire 20 people to check them would cost more than the benefit of paying the fees, ie, those who pay fees would go up. In anycase, after seeing what a bunch of losers some people can be at our uni (eg my run-in with the "I don't speak english" koreans in the library), I'm confident that compulsary union fees are the better option over those losers abusing the system.Calculon said:
Right, but what's the chance of you not getting your place at Macquarie because someone payed to get in? Oh, that's right, Macquarie has equal full-fee and HECS places.bscienceboi said:
So to balance that out they overcharge us on food? Either way, if there were either more fee-paying students or higher priced food its a disadvantage towards prospective students. That seems a tad unfair.PwarYuex said:
Yeah my HSC CHemistry tutor who teaches at Arthur Phillip in Parramatta told us that. It's usually for "disadvantaged" schools because of the lower rated education level.Cyan_phoeniX said:

yeh i do go to mq, but im saying i didnt think the price difference between unis would be that different...bscienceboi said:I thought you went to MacUni...
Well I have friends who transferred from Sydney Uni and they said there is quite a difference. Same goes with UTS students.
We can always invade their forums
Yeah its not cheap being a member, sometimes you save 20cents or so and they dont check. If you go to the newsagency they ask if your a member but don't bother acquiring the proof. Unlike last year where they had the counters set up above the atrium they always checked.Orange Juice said:
i think non members just pay a more expensive price (above normal) and we as member pay the normal price...bscienceboi said:
Why couldn't the people already working selling food at the venues do it? It just involves the hiring of one or two security guards for one night for conception day, which isn't going to be that big an expense.PwarYuex said:
