I tell you what sucks the most?
The social part of the UNI. It really is bad. Everyone just goes home and it's pretty dead.
Even some of the lectures i went to, the students are so lazy and unmotivated for macro and micro they just dont give a shit. im doing them as electives to transfer into commerce/law.
Oh and what pissed me off the most was, a UTS student in my macro class she came here for a year and couldn't stop talking shit about it. how bad it was and how UTS is the best uni in sydney. I told her to go to hell.
Oh yeah and the older people suck (especially with babies crying in lectures). There heaps stupid and think they know what they're talking about but they don't.
im out.
Having been here for 4 years now, I can see for myself that the social side of the university hasn't exactly been shining brightly or flourished in much way at all. However, there are societies that have been established by students in Commerce/Business over the last year that look like with some real interest and more importantly, sustained organisation, they could offer up a social outlet to the students that the Bus/Law faculty has been desperately craving for so long.
If you're successful in getting into a Law double though, there are a lot more close-knit societies and clubs that students run for the law types.
At the end of the day though, it doesn't take much to organise a society/club if you and a few others are intent on building a bit of a social network. My only regret is that I hadn't been involved in a business society earlier in my degree. My best piece of advice is to make friends with some of the Engineers and go to a FRAT party to see how they are organised, as the engineers have without doubt, the best run society on campus. If anything, ask some of the older guys how you could start one and what they did.
Think about what might attract you and your fellow students together, and then take it to someone in the Business & Law faculty. They are more than willing to help you get something off the ground, if at the end of the day, it improves the satisfaction of studying here.
Don't worry too much about people that degrade the degree or university, more often than not they are sheep that have wandered from other universities, expecting to be lead to somewhere great without lifting a finger.
