speaking of USU, when is the new building next to wentworth going to get some shops and not be a bleak depressing grey expanse? it looks like they've even given up on the coffee cart they had there for a few weeks.

you don't normally get told what your tute participation mark is, so it's hard to tell whether someone who barely participates is getting a mark of 1/10 or a mark of 5/10.

yep. our points diff is high enough that we'll still be on top once this round is over, unless the knights or titans win by 40+ which is a bit unlikely.

worst video ref decision of all time, bar none. heads should roll tbh, because there is no way he can credibly referee a game next week. that is just ludicrous. idiotic.

what's an NUS national OB, and why is getting one to campaign for you over the top? (and while i'm displaying my cluelessness on student politics, what the hell are the whigs and why did they suddenly come from nowhere last year?)

peter seith didn't leapfrog the competition thanks to the sizable last-minute chalking campaign by the vegetarian society, then.

but mann has real policies and real experience! as usual i'm going to vote based on petty and shallow reasons. so i will decide on the basis of which candidates i've developed irrational dislikes of, and which candidates are better-looking. edit: do you need an access card to vote? because if...

is that advanced australia? best course ever.

phew, got it working via VPN. thanks for the help dude.

anyone else having trouble logging into databases and stuff on the library website via unikey? it's telling me that it can't find my unikey details or something, but i can still log into myuni without problems so it's not that my password has changed itself or anything.

apparently quah tried to set up a men's society or something once, and the USU C&S committee knocked him back. so i don't think they're likely to devote any real estate to a men's room either.

the problem with these stats is that they're taken only six months after graduation, which privileges the degrees that have major corporations employing people on reasonably high salaries via graduate programs (i.e. law and the big accounting and mining companies, mainly). for degrees that don't...

yeah auspol was decent. but all the newbies take world pol and geopol because they sound sexy and international. poor fools.

yeah there's a hoyts in there somewhere. other suggestions for breaks: going to the gym, computers in the library if you don't mind queuing for a bit, doing readings (if you're an arts student and are committed then this will take up large portions of your breaks), having lunch on a lawn...

i saw a girl who had both a louis vuitton bag and heels that were so ridiculously high she was almost falling over on every step she took. dress down for uni, darling.

the ones on level 2 of old teachers college (near the US studies centre) are awesome, and always completely empty. the men's ones anyway, but i guess the women's would be the same. merewether ones are the worst.

i was just buying my flexipass by credit card, and the woman at the ticket office made me do my signature again because she didn't think my first attempt looked similar enough to the one on my card. doesn't giving people multiple tries sort of defeat the purpose of checking signatures?

she's talking about usyd (probably want to put this thread in the usyd forum though). the old geology lecture theatre is in the edgeworth david geology building. go in via the southern door, near the footbridge over parramatta road, and go up the staircase directly in front of you.

the opening in april is probably just so they can wine and dine all the corporate sponsors. (students will be studying in the 'Freehills Law Library' and the 'Mallesons Stephen Jaques Lecture Theatre' or something, so clearly all the big firms have stumped up a lot of cash if they're getting...

usually in hard copy at the first lecture.
