I think you'll find the new organisation will be not-for-profit, and will focus heavily on the student activities side of things rather than the food and retail aspect (which I assume is why you think it will be for-profit). The organisations have amalgamated to save money in staff and services...

There is a list of all of the Student Guild affiliated clubs on the CASOC (clubs and societies on campus) website - http://guild.unsw.edu.au/casoc/clubA.html There may be others as well who aren't affiliated...

That's gold. I'll get my scrutineer to keep an eye out for it and let you know :)

In my experience it's not too hard to pick up an extra degree once you have started - I know heaps of people who started in science or medicine (myself included) and ended up adding an arts degree - I added mine after I'd already done two years of study. But call the Science faculty and ask them...

I don't know about the second part, but the teaching rankings I was referring to were published in (I think) The Australian last year. It forms part of the graduate assessment - when you graduate you fill in a survey asking all these questions about your course and stuff like that. They also...

I was - I did three years which was the science part. Med wasn't for me though and I transferred to law this year.

Rumor has it that they were used for one of three options: 1. suicide doors 2. alien landing pads 3. to get computers into the upper floors when computers were the size of houses It may or may not be that only one of these three is the real answer...

My (male) housemate has one of those shirts :)

science/arts in history I guess it's kinda a related discipline :)

That's actually the interesting thing about Council, is getting to have a say on the balance of where the Uni money goes. Unfortunately though there is only so much you can say in 150 words, but I definitely agree with the points you raise. I agree with you about the Old Main building, really I...

Tharunka comes out every three weeks. Tharunka and Blitz usually share the same distribution points, but Blitz is the one that comes out every week.

Blitz has an editorial policy that says it must cover both sides of any political issue. As a result, any time it has published anything on VSU, it has given both sides. The political publication on campus is Tharunka - put out by the Guild - which encourages students to write artices on...

Hi guys, The UNSW student organisations are holding a discussion forum for students to give feedback into the changes that are being suggested to student organisations in preparation for VSU. The changes are quite drastic, with the proposal outlining a merger of the Source (Union), Guild, PGB...

Hi BOS'ers, For anyone who is interested, the results of the Source (formerly known as Union) elections are out today. They're officially out tomorrow but I can give you a sneaky preview :) The three candidates elected to the two year positions are (in no particular order): Caitlin Hurley Eker...

Thanks :) As I said earlier, if anyone wants me to explain any of my policy ideas I'm more than happy to go into more info. The pink form accompanying the ballot forms has a bit of a summary, but there's only so much you can say in 150 words!
