    UNSW to decide on HECS increase

    slack? i don't see how the uni seems to be more focused on not following suit (the full +25%), though may still increase hecs by a certain amount. the arguments for and against look speculative - i wonder how they'll deal with this.

    Usefulness of a specialised degree?

    you can combine aero with science at unsw (not sure about usyd). from what i've heard, there's not many jobs for aero in aus, so u'd have to go overseas for them (and the industry isn't likely to grow). its a high uai because its hard.

    u won't get half marks, but u should get part marks if your going down the right track - not for thinking along the right lines :p. if you can do the tut questions, you'll be fine for the test.

    Religious affiliation

    why should a larger brain lead us to be capable of dreaming up things to believe in? granted, religion does focus on death, and after death, and what it says is fairly unbelievable or too weird, because its the great unknown. but why believe something just for comfort sake? i believe, not...

    Religious affiliation

    well, there is a chance, but your probably right - my faith is strong. but i wasn't talking about strong christians (people who believe and sought out christianity and through that have come to believe). i was talking about christians with blind faith (as u put it before), but i guess that...

    Religious affiliation

    I don't agree. as i said, by the time they hit our age, they would for one thing have met people like you who don't believe in a god, and so will have a choice of whether to continue to believe what they do, or to not. (otherwise, there would be none who didn't believe in a god, since most grow...

    Religious affiliation

    please point out a hole in christianity. me thinks the biggest 'hole' you may find is that the whole thing is based on faith (as u have been pushing), but i don't consider it a hole. those are possible causes for a person being christian. however, I would think that the majority of people...

    Hello you cool bunch of people!

    the only card you'd need to apply for (if u want one) is a copy card (for photocopying), and as far as I know, they just give u one when u ask for it, and pay, and you set your pin code. no idea what a call number is... I think BK means book...(then again, it could be more sophisticated, but...

    does anyone check ur bus ticket (from central)?

    you won't have encountered them yet what they tend to do is wait a lil bit (a few weeks) and then pounce on the buses for a few weeks. if i remember right, last year they started inspecting about start of april, and it went on for about 2 weeks straight
