none of my subjects are on any level above 1. so dont have to be scared of being bombed, ide be more scared of VSU protestors then anything.

theres a bar with pool tables and arcade machines, i usually hang otu there.

and transport is easy , 5 mins walk from central

although building one is damn ugly, the place is pretty cool ... i like being right in the city ... although i really enjoy grass, walking out and being right in the middle of the city is also cool.

i hate the lifts in tower building makes me want to throw up
it's funny how many people think that there's only one building (tower)

 

[Cooleroo]

when i was in year 10 or 11 (cant remember) i actually did my qork experience at UTS...i studied as a university student doing a forensic science course!!!

its a really good uni..well so i thought! i attended lectures and did experiments, i was like a student and it was awesome, a top uni!!!

I hope that I never have classes there, I wouldn't be able to eat before class. I've only been in the lifts twice but both times it made me feel sick.
They must have made them so bad on purpose, because I've never been in a lift quite that bad before...I'd rather go up Centrepoint tower.

UTS is surprisingly close to the station. It'd be nicer if the tunnel had air vents, but you can't have everything.

is it actually that much worse then centrepoint?
ive never been there personally

but if they are worse, then thats really really bad...

 

[Cooleroo]

what do u guys mean that the lift is bad? does it wobble when its going up? does stink like trash? what?

I wasn't saying that it takes a long time.
It does go slow-ish though, and it makes your head spin when it stops. It's like it goes up half a level too far and then drops back down before the doors open.

I've been to Centrepoint, Telstra Tower etc and their lifts just feel like you're dropping when it stops. It never gave me the "I'm going to throw up then faint" feeling.

yuor just weak. the lift is not that bad.

 

[midnight]

Thanks.

Maybe I would get used to it if I had to use it every day. But I don't. And the times that I've been in it it has made me feel ill.
I wasn't trying to use my opinion to start an argument.

haha yeah, lift isnt bad ... whats bad is where i was today ... the underground engineering lab/workshop thingy's in building two ... my god, i was down there in a room full of concretey crap for about 10 mins before i couldnt stand it any longer and walked out.

oh yeah, i forgot to mention earlier, another reason uts is rad is because thejosiekiller goes there!!!! *waits for sexz0ring*

Depending on what you want to study you rarely have to use the tower lifts anyway! The view from the upper levels of the tower is great.

UTS is pretty damn cool in my opinion. They have some great courses, transport is excellent (easy access to both buses and trains)... it is probably the best uni (well city campus anyway) in terms of access to transport.

Plus it is in the city.... in chinatown, short walk to centre of city. So much to do.

I'm very happy at UTS.

5-10 minutes to get to uts from central?! Maybe if you're paraplegic. It's 2 mins from railway square.
Usyd is 10-15 minutes walk from central.

Oh and it really depends what career path you wish to take. Some courses will be better at uts, others at unsw, others at usyd.
I find some courses at uts very prescriptive and specific though.

 

[my sharona]

I walk from Central to UTS in about 5 minutes.

I just have to remember not to go up the elevator that says 'UTS', because that's the one that you have to walk past all the buses and wait at the lights. 'Tafe' is where I want to go.

UTS is good, because rain, hail, shine, the weather is regulated.
The closeness to MarketCity (cheap food!!) is also a huge plus.

But yeah, I don't like the elevators, especially how some of them are biased and only go to every second level. And the Womyn's room, that place scares me.

are you talking abt the EAS/disadvantage marks thing? Because UTS does offer certain assistance to those with disadvanatages

i still say... the lift makes me sick hahaa
