this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.
been thinkin about havin a thrird crack at tryin to finish a uni degree, dont know if i got it in me though:P:P:P i could always go finish my business or engineering degrees i guess... i just get so fuckin bored and sick of not having a life when i do it part time and sick of being poor when i do it full time...
Hmmmm, if you got bored of not having a life doing a part time uni degree, definetely don't complete your engineering degree and get full time work ! :thumb

(i say i'm doing but i haven't actually started yet...)

I got into B Design (Visual Communication) as UWS!!!!!
Which campus? I work at UWS.
Lock up the VW. The carpark is a "pick and pay nothing". Car wouldn't start one afternoon several yers ago. Bastards had taken my carby! Now use locks.
got to agree doug was doing a 4 engineering subjects (instead of the normal 5) and working 50hrs/wk plus. no time for anything 🙁
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!
Go hard or go home!!!!
zac- smits... yeah i use to be right into white water kayaking... now that will put hairs on your balls... thats the good gear gettin smashed by rocks all over the shop, especially when your upside down and underwater tryin to do an eskimo roll or somersault out of your wildly careering fiberglass coffin...that is such damm fun it gets the adrenalin pumping big time..
ive been rafting a few times too... nowhere near as fun as kayaking but still a great day out in the sun and water makin friends and havin a laugh..
its something you just follow around the world with the seasons... one day ill get there...
part-time uni and work doesnt mean you dont have a life...
it just means you have to be very selective of the life you want to be having :P

this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.
Have fun, I have done 6 years at uni....and hope not to do anymore ever again. But who knows, its worth it in the end.
Yeah I was doing B medical Science UNSW but transferred to occupational therapy UWS,
Couldn’t see myself in a lab all day long, I need to be around people
YOU HAVE JUST BEEN DAKED
don't worry it's a VW thing
well thinking this year or next its time to go and do masters (only been out of uni over 1 year) but its expected from my employer 🙁
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!
Go hard or go home!!!!
the scholastic institutions that are available to the masses serve only to narrow ones mind.
Reality leaves alot to the Imagination
Yeah nice one E. There's no chance that they serve some function in handing down the knowledge of our society?! I know our uni system isn't perfect but to suggest that the tactful ignorance of any form of acedemic institution is the better way to knowledge is just a bit too silly for me.
Suggesting that Uni is the be all and end all of education is a narrow minded opinion. Certainly an Engineering degree should serve only to teach you a way to think and assess issues and problems, as well as give you a few basic tools to help. All the real learning is done OTJ (on the job).
By the way E, what is it you do for a living ?
oh i believe modern unis are merely a money hungry mass moving institution, however they serve the purpose of education also... i hated the way i was just another number on a seat and despite the fact i was paying thousands a year i had to constantly be present at the uni for all the information i paid for to be made available to me.... they liked to call that a learning tool or a way of making us actually come but to some of us with careers and other obligations it was just farkin bullshit... same for tests.. i had to take annual leave to take some tests cos they didnt schedule any weekend sessions...but anyway, they are a business at the end of the day but one that could be run more considerately, especially ever since all the fee increases also...
Not suggesting they're the be all and end all by any means, just saying that to say that they serve no purpose whatsoever is a bit silly.
oh yeah i agree...i think E was just bein a bit one eyed
I am doing it at the Werrington Campus in Penrith and I got into off-campus accomodation so Im all set 🙂
I go back to uni in 3 weeks as well!! This is my final year of my BA in communications.. I'm really looking foward to finishing, think i would have learnt more in a working environment but nevermind its all about the piece of paper you get at the end!!
But its my goal to finish this year so that i can fulfill my dream of travelling australia in my kombi!!! So excited about it already!!!

I'll be going back as a long haired VW driving hippie tutor to teach my language at University of Queensland.

I really wanted to change to B.Sci (forensics) but unfortunately didnt get in...bummer..
any VWs round there??
I work at Melbourne Uni. Anyone else on here going there this year?
By the way if you want to blame someone for the state of the universities dont blame them. Try Brendon Nelson and his cronies in the fedral government. If they get their way and create a tiered university system here like they have in the US we will really have something to complain about.
