    What was the website that "The Update" mentioned?

    The SRC not only supports Falun Gong financially, it also holds events promoting the cult. The website http://www.falungonginfo.org/ clarifies.

    What was the website that "The Update" mentioned?

    ISA is still in its early stages. We're developing infrastructure and programs, before we can actively recruit. And Falun Gong is a terrorist organisation.

    What was the website that "The Update" mentioned?

    Google and Microsoft use American English, because they're designed for Americans. Here we use Australian English, which is far more similar to British English.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    The opinions I've raised in this thread are shared by an overwhelming majority of Con students, staff and lecturers. I can say that because I know, and speak to, a majority of Con students, staff and lecturers. While we might not own the Con per se, we do see it as a second home and we don't...

    What was the website that "The Update" mentioned?

    I still have a copy of a receipt for $800 worth of repairs that needed to be done to my violin after one of those attacks - and I am still waiting for the SRC to honour my request for reimbursement of my $800.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    I'm not going to touch any of the baseless insults in this thread. The entire building is owned by the NSW Government, and is leased to the University. That's everything from the Verbrugghen Hall to the tutorial rooms. The event itself was hosted by the University, not the Government.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    I'm glad the Liberals are changing their focus this year, because quite frankly you guys NEED to change. I don't doubt your sincerity, but until SULC cleans up its act it will have the same reputation among students as the che guevara t-shirt socialists. ISA is succeeding, because we address...

    Wanker. YOU try putting together a 3000-copy publication without mandatory student union funding. The site is www.ourbloodysrc.com.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    NOLS/Unity are, for all intents and purposes, the same bloody faction. The Libs are weak on campus, and continue to alienate students - ironically, just like the Trots. ISA continues to grow every day. More students are expressing their interest in what we do, and our support base continues...

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    I'm in a unique position to comment on the issue. I'm not Just a Con student, I'm Also at the head of one of the four major student factions at the University of Sydney. The protesters were (are) from one of the Other student factions, and have in the past engaged in violence against...

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    Doesn't matter, the Con is not the venue for these sorts of debates. Unless Dr. Rice was there to play a piano concerto with the Conservatorium Symphony (which is entirely possible, since she is a concert-level pianist), there is no reason why she should essentially shut down the Con. I must...

    Semester 1 Chatter Thread (2006)

    Re: Semester 1 Chatter Hey, there are interesting people running this year. We're not allowed to say exactly who, but there'll be at least one ISA candidate.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    I think it's VERY important that we Con students keep things in perspective. Sure, having classes disrupted warrants action. But we must not do so by supporting the protesters. We must condemn them as surely as we condemn being displaced from our own campus. We must send a clear message -...

    What a fucking genius you are. You should be US Secretary of State instead of Con dolcezza.

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    In my opinion, the Con community should have been far more prepared for the event. Of course people are going to use the Con as a venue for other than learning, it's why our building is constantly modernised, kept clean and respected the world over. But that's not an excuse for the disruption of...

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    This article is to be published in the next edition of the Honi. This article does NOT represent my personal viewpoint, and as a Conservatorium student at uni that day, I question the validity of the claims. Nevertheless, the article:

    Condoleezza Rice (US Secretary of State) Was At My Uni Today

    I found it rather disgusting that for some of those protesters (Many of whom were main campus based activists that I know very well), THIS marked their first visit to the Con. Not to deal with the student issues that they, as our so-called elected representatives, should be dealing with. Not to...
