    Law school rankings

    I did Constitutional this semester and classes were not compulsory. There were podcasts for just about every topic, though.

    Legal Studies Multiple Choice Q11 - Isn't it Justice?

    I would say the correct answer is certainty. Adherence to the rule of law helps foster fairness and justice, but I think the best answer is certainty.

    Become less straight, white and male - or go out of business

    Research I read when I was in year 12 painted an Australia picture not so different.

    Tutorial attendance

    I find it unusual that you doubt the possibility of doing well notwithstanding low attendance. Personally, I learn very little at uni. Everything I learn is from doing the readings at home.

    Fitness First Contract: Payment

    Whether he is a member seems irrelevant to the question as to whether he entered into a contract. Once again, I have not read the terms though. Tell him to pay. It will teach him not to be such a lazy bastard.

    Fitness First Contract: Payment

    How would there be a failure of consideration? I haven't seen the contract, but I'd assume that FF promised to provide entry to use their equipment/premises, and your friend's friend promised to pay X. Edit: I understand your argument, but I think it is incorrect. I highly doubt it would...

    Awards Presentation Ceremony

    I got a letter in the mail the other day saying I've won two 'prizes', which will be awarded at the College of Business Awards Presentation Ceremony. Does anyone know what kind of prizes we get? One of them is sponsored by LexisNexis, so I'm assuming it will be a book voucher? The other is...

    who takes supplements?

    You can actually buy flavour sachets for the unflavoured whey. My casein powder is flavourless, but i just mix it with a bit of my flavoured whey.

    losing weight?

    Re: i need to lose weight FAST That's a shit diet. Cereal? How is that going to help him? There is a big difference between fruit loops and porridge. More generally, there isn't enough food in that diet and there aren't enough meals. Three meals is no where near enough. You want 5-6 at the...

    Escaping UWS?

    This type of 'study' is not, I don't think, indicative of university quality though. As has been canvassed in this thread and elsewhere, there are numerous factors which affect employability. Unless factors such as UAI are controlled, these results may merely tell us that more hard-working...

    Best Law Schools

    I'm not aware of any reputation regarding international law, but have you looked at the electives? Also, what course is available to combine with the law component may be important.

    Essay - Australia's immigration policy

    Re: Legal HELP There is nothing wrong with lecturers having an opinion. It only becomes a problem when they don't allow student to develop their own perspective. This question, in my opinoin, provides scope to argue either side. Granted, the teachings throughout the semester have probably...

    Quitting junior lawyers find a voice

    I think there is a difference, however, between having some appreication of the fact that law firms require long hours on the one hand; and the fact that the work culture of many law firms is so bad that 25% of lawyers are now suffering from elevated psychological distress - including depression...

    Law classes too big at USyd

    Regardless of whether you have a lec + tute or seminar system, every uni seems to have 2 classes per week for law subjects. At your uni do you learn about 1 or 2 topics per week though? At UWS, we have two 2hr seminars, each focused on a different topic. However in my Social Science subjects...

    Big Brother and Equitable Estoppel

    If no mention of prizes or cash is made in the oral or written contract, would the fact that previous series have involved prizes or cash be sufficient 'inducement' of the assumption that this season will also involve prizes?
