Rafiq said in my tute, he would have failed some people but out of expediency, he just scaled and shifted the bellcurve. I think he said something like people would have got 11-12/40 but felt very generous and gave 20 just to pass em. He really pointed out that a fair bit of essays were off...

Well what do you want out of the degree? strong conceptual and analytical skills as well as creative thinking and problem solving abilities? A good learning environment? IMO, the first two years and probably some of third year units, you probably wont get this. Regurgitation of formulas and...

3000 words and i am still making notes off the papers, this is going to be a close shave.... My topic is humanitarian intervention, somewhere along the lines of whether humanitarian intervention , although not currently and exception to use of force, can be developed as an exception...

Now thats all over, we have 6 weeks to do a bigger research assignment. Sorry for not posting it earlier MJ but if u have decided on the research topic, post the topic, if I am doing the same or cross over something that might be helpful, I'll post the source up.

Thats the working paper, i got the real article, i think is Guzman, Andrew T (2005) ‘The Design of International Agreements’, 16(4) European Journal of International Law 579, p 585 This can be downloaded from EJIL website at http://www.ejil.org/journal/Vol16/No4/art1.html Also have a look at...

I am editing my draft now, i basically came up with three broad strategies; how to mitigate the power problem in the UN, how to create greater compliance through treaty design and how to create greater enforcement within the doemstic sphere. Found 6 decent sources but sometimes it feels like...

I barely passed, but it was close. I did well to begin with, i did my critical analysis on the Market for Lemons and executive pay for assignment, got a D/HD in both. But i was stunned pretty badly for the final (and also i was seriosuly sick), i thought i actually failed it pretty bad...

I would provide free advice and help on this subject just to prevent the student from being gobsmacked when he/she sees the final

Not as easy as it looks, hopefully 6 decent sources will get me by, it feels as if theres more regurgitation of arguments and counter-arguments in my strategies rather than original analysis....

407 is good but i think we're gonna get gobsmacked for the final, its one thing to understand the cases and the points in law, but I have a feeling that he will expect us to do critical analysis of it in the final and tie it in with the common theme/doctrine. I heard they removed class...

so who has started on the 509 int law assignment??? Also MaryJane, what did your tutor say in the tutorial with regards to the assignment? I got Rafiqul and the only thing that comes out of him in the tute are the answers to the students questions.

In the tutorial: "xxxxx is a fuckwit!" (in reference to the reader) (1 min later) "an overeducated fuckwit" (in reference to the article in the reader) "am i fucking right or wrong" Possibly the best lecturer, now i understand why theres no ilecture.

The lecuter i boring and hard to follow (rafiq has a strong accent), the tute is even worse, sitting like stunned mullets listening him ramble on and on. Also, i want the lecture overheads! where are they? So far having been through the first lecture and gone over the two books (Dixon and...

I will be doing LAW407 LAW509 LAW316 (I am in the 11-1 tutorial for international law) Oh btw, thx for explaining what individual thinking was Mel. :P See u guys and gals tomorrow?

Its heavy going, but do try to read everything over at least once with a highlighter in hand. It seems overwhelming at first, but it will seem easier after the lecture where they put things into a better perspective. If u have a basic understanding and know whats going on, then tutorial...

Go get a waiver. Go in person and fill out a waiver form (ask the office ladies and administration) and hand it in to Anne mcguigan. Wait about a day or two and a waiver would be granted in e student which allows u to enrol into contracts.

I am gonna park at macq centre today to get my parking sticker and books. 3 hours is a bit tight and unfair, parking (from what i have exp. at macq centre over the last 2 sems) is no problem at all! They are only packed at lunch times and the bottom levels are mostly empty before 11. Even...
