    Social Sciences Review

    Checking my e-mails late at night has somehow brought me to this point - anyone gone through the Social Sciences Revue, particularly the feedback submissions? Or at least heard of it? I'm personally excited by the prospect of some sort of a separate Faculty of (Economic &) Social Sciences, and...

    ECOP1002 Final Exam

    Anyone notice how the exact same charts about gender inequality with wages, and an extended response question about australian social security were both replicated in the '03 and '05 papers? Since Gabrielle is quite the feminist, is it safe to assume there'll most likely be something about...

I'm doing Economic Social Sciences and am considering taking up human geo units next year, as well as going on the Asia-Pacific Field School Trip in 3rd year, but also want to do Govt and Asian Studies - it's gonna take me until next year to decide, so I'm starting the...

    3rd Annual Funk and Soul Festival

    Who's going? None of my friends are that keen on 'Funk &/or Soul' *sigh* they all suck. Missed the Bamboos' gig at the Basement, so am keen to make up for it with this.

    'Quiet' Philosophy Tutes

    Yes, my Philosophy tute is quiet, I thought they'd be different from others. A lesson for us is just one long awkward silence punctuated by half-arsed attempts to create discussion by the tutor, myself and another or two. Are they usually like this, because I've heard (and was definitely hoping...

    GOVT1202 World Politics

    Anyone go to the World Politics lecture today and actually stay for the whole two hours? Did he take a break in between this time around? I can only ever stay for the first hour thanks to tute at 2, did he make anymore important points (he finally did today and I made an effort to write them...

    PHIL2642 Critical Thinking

    Just stumbled upon this, seems to be a hidden gem tucked away in the later pages of the handbook... Anyone taken up this unit? Any reason why a first year with no previous experience of Philopsophy shouldn't take it? I'm almost sold...

    Political Economy imminent shutdown

    Just to let you know, the Faculty of Economics and Business are about to announce 'restructuring' changes to the faculty, which will most probably involve the abolition if the 'school' level of administration (i.e: the School of Business (SBUS), and the School of Economics and Politics...

    Ecop1003

    Just wanted to ask what ECOP1003 is like? I know nothing can compare to the awesomeness of Frank Stilwell (as it turns out he also lectured my high school English teacher...), but I'm considering taking it as a replacement for intermediate French in addition to ECOP1002... I dunno, the whole...

    Intermediate French Disappointment

    Who else was really disappointed about the merger of the beginners and intermediate streams into the single Monday morning lecture? As nice as it is to have revision, it's a bit tedious having to go through grammar we learned ages ago (for me it was Years 8 and 9 - I did French up to Year 10...

    How to choose to Tutorial times (?) And student diaries...

    How do we choose out tutorial times? Is it through MyUni? All I know (or what I think I know) is that we 'block' the days we don't want tutorials on. I'll keep searching around for 'how'... Oh, and they also ran out of Union Showbags when I enrolled! How rude! They said I could get my...

    Missing out on Orientation

    I'll be away on holidays for the month of February but as it stands I can't get a flight back home until March 3, which means I'd miss out on O-Week at Sydney Uni (unless of course, I book with another airline, but I want the frequent-flyer points on my preferred airline). How important is O...

    Would you recommend Asian Studies?

    I'm considering taking up Asian Studies - would any of you recommend/advise against it? I'll be doing Political Economy, and Goverment or IR (I've heard Geopolitics is shit, any other tips?), so I probably won't have any room for an Asian language. If not Asian Studies, then I'll stick to French!

    CSU Open Day/Info Day in Sydney?

    Does CSU have some sort of 'info day' in Sydney? I've recently developed an interest in Journalism at CSU, it seems more enticing than UTS for some reason...

    Which first - USyd Political Economy or UTS Journalism?

    I'd love to do Journalism at UTS or even CSU but I really want the broad, generalist education that I can get in an Arts degree at Sydney Uni, hence I'm considering postgrad Journalism. I should also add that I intend to do Grad Law (all in all I'll probably finish everything in 8 Years :)...
