    writing in contemporary cultures

    I have written so much stuff down about the journalism course and I can't be bothered to write it all out again... sift through some of the threads on this forum to find out info about it.

    The incredibles!!!!!

    I saw it tonight and loved it! I loved it when Frozos wife was abusing him when he was looking for his super suit. Edna was my fav character, followed by the kid on the bike. Did anyone else have those short films at the start of their feature.... my friend and I were pissing ourselves...

    how far are you moving for uni?

    I moved from Albury to Sydney last year, approx 700kms. There are people from Tas, WA and SA in my course at my uni so there are people out there who move massive distances to go to uni.

    Communication: Info management or Social Inquiry?

    As far as I know, in Info Management you learn how to be a librarian lol..... thats all I know about it. I think it is like social inquiry in that you learn about research methods.... I think you also learn about internet/webpages and presenting info online.... I don't really know a lot about...

    UTS B Business/B Law UAI artificially increased?

    USyd artificially inflates their media and comm course UAI by only letting a few people in. They do this in order to make them seem more prestigious than UTS communications.... Why else do they only let in 15 or so people when they already teach most of the subjects in the course in the general...

    usyd to unsw. how?

    There is a bus stop opposite Victoria Park on city road (near the Lansdown hotel) where you can catch a bus to Coogee that goes via UNSW. Alternatively, catch a bus to central. Then catch a bus from Eddy Av (most of the buses that depart from one of the stands in Eddy Av, i think it is c, go...

    Another question about B. Laws

    Probably better to start with communications, then drop it if you didn't like it, because it is hard to transfer in to communications.

    ARTS and arts in social inquiry

    Um that's not really what the course focuses on.... social inquiry is more research type stuff (as far as I understand). Public communication is advertising/marketing and PR (public relations)..... in pub comm you would learn how to "spin", come up with ideas for marketing/advertising...

    Anyone working XMAS EVE??

    It's kinda optional I guess lol.... but they would be pretty pissed off if I said I wouldn't do all those hours lol... as in they basically pleaded with me not to go work for Cirque du Soleil in Auckland so that I would be home to help them out..... Plus it's kinda a financial necessity to get...

    11 march?

    I read somewhere (and I can't remember where) that Semester 1 this year starts on March 11. Can anyone confirm this for me or direct me to the part of the UTS website that will confirm this for me? It's just that I am trying to plan a holiday and need to figure out dates to get back to Syd, go...

    Thoughts people.

    At UTS they do this often at the start of our lectures (at least in the humanities faculty).... basically it is pointless tokenism. It is a shallow gesture to feign solidarity which does not exist amongst the broader Australian public. Recognizing traditional land owners is not going to...

    Is This Normal?

    They possibly could have paid you on (Sat) but it will take until Monday or Tuesday to show up in your bank account due to public hols and the time it takes to process etc. I know that I used to get paid on wednesday but the money wouldn't appear in the bank until Thursday morning.... If...

    KGai or City?

    Which is easier for you to travel to from home? That should be a pretty big consideration. Apparently KG is nice, but city campus has the advantage of being in the city... plus I've heard that a lot of people from the business faculty hang out at markets bar......

    Unionists

    I agree with you hessie, that is the side of unionism that I absolutely detest. Also, I hate how it makes it difficult for employers to sack employees who are shit workers..... I mean, you shouldn't have to employ someone who is shit at their job!
