Is Usyd really like this? (3 Viewers)

1) Tell me, what is it about the SRC that makes the competition so rife? What do they do, what powers and privileges do they possess, that they want the position so badly and have a train of followers to aid them in their cause?

2) On the Sydney Uni Open Day I talked to the head of the Union Budget after his lecture. I asked him why the government would bring in the VSU even though it has so much opposition and it only affects Uni students. He told me that when Peter Costello and Tony Abbott were in Sydney Uni, the Union bashed them to pieces.

"What, literally?" I asked incredulously.
"Nono," he chuckled, "let's just say they disagreed... strongly. Now its their turn to get revenge, under the guise of 'preventing political partisans from propagating their personal predilections'. It's sad, but c'est la vie."

How much of this is true?

None. And Abbot (and Costello afaik) were members of the DLP, so I don't see why the Union would have been "out to get them".

 

[withoutaface]

Wasn't Abbot a president of the union?

SRC .

There SEEM to be more of them than there actually is. There are a core group of about 100 people across the main universities in Sydney, who appear at every single protest, election and event across every single uni. Recently, students were offered iPods to head over to UWS to get students there to attend a special meeting to make changes to their constitution.

Yeah we do have politically minded students at UWS. Annoying fucks

Regardless of the issue at hand, is it a good sign of the times that political apathy (especially in this climate) is the new black?
