not the other way around

I have to say that is too long a question for an Integration bee.

 

[MATHmaster]

WOW this is so hard!!! First maths question I've done since HSC. I've lost my touch

 

[Michelle Lin]

Hi, are the faculty/course presentations important to attend?

 

[Web Addict]

I'm doing Bachelor of Engineering/Bachelor of Commerce.

Would the workshops about academic writing, essay writing and report writing be useful towards my course?

It would, you write essays in both engineering and commerce

integral bee in o-week seems kinda weird. i thought it was just getting shitfaced every night for like 4 days haha

 

[Shadowdude]

Just finished writing up all the questions and all the presentation for the O-Week Integration Bee which is going to be super awesome.

Behold:

(yes it's just a photo of my computer screen, but as we can see - the font is sexy, so the rest of it should be as well)

 

[kaz1]

you probably don't know about the print screen button on your computer then

 

[Shadowdude]

Quicker to take a picture and then use an app on my phone.

Is it necessary to attend the faculty welcomes? I've been to UNSW several times, and have read the website's info on each of the faculties. I really don't feel like attending my faculty (Engo and Science) welcomes cos they clash with interesting events/seminars :/

What do they do at the faculty welcomes?

 

[D94]

Not necessary to attend faculty welcomes. The Dean will probably welcome you and I guess you can meet others but it's not that important.

 

[williamdaft]

Going to the ASB welcome on Tuesday , dunno why it's 3 hours though..

Food.

 

[planino]

There's a b!tchload of other things I'd rather do tbh

 

[Shadowdude]

I went to the ASB welcome - went for an hour, was led outside for some food, grabbed it and quietly left.

The rest of it was probably a campus tour or something but... yeah.

 

[ifrit112]

Just join the tour, grab a bag of goodies and slowly part from the group, going to "the toilet".
The tour takes a while and you have to do cheesy things like games and "introduce yourself".

Then you could just rejoin at the end for a free BBQ. For the Faculty welcomes, same sort of thing. Go in to get a food ticket, then leave the theatre and rejoin for food.
