ok then..how about you go back and read the part where i said i am assuming you are not a uws due to what you have said, and that IF this was the case ..... etc etc
i did not say you are not a uws student, i said what i thought based on if you weren't... i never said that i know for a fact you aren't...
Why dont you go back and read what i said - ie people who are just making ignorant abusive comments without providing any basis for it, especially those who aren't uws students should just not comment in this forum. I never once said that i was
"posting in UWS forum filled with "uninformed" and "ignorant" people like me." as you said above so dont make statement as to what i said when i didnt.
As you surely would know as a uws student, the uni as one collective group has only been around for 12 years, therefore guides such as the GOod Uni's guides although useful, are no more or less valid than students opinions, as there is no where near as much information and experience to base such judgements on as say, uts of unsw or another uni - i seriously doubt in their first decade or so of existence they were a top ranked uni. As for your statement -
"observations about UWS and its lack of prestige, teacher/student ratios/employment prospects e.t.c." show me where i ever disagreed with this?
Any comments i made as to employment prospects were to law specific occupations, thus i never made uni wide generalisations. I agree that it lacks prestige etc - but if you actually read my earlier posts rather than assuming what i meant, you would have noticed that i said that these aren't valid reasons to say a uni's crap, especially given uws is "new".
And to the people who think that doing a course you like is more important than doing a course you don't like at a reputable university, i would like to see if you people retain the same idea twenty years down the track when you are outside Centerlink with a six pack, waiting for your pay cheque. so what, following this logic, you're telling me i'm better off doing a course like...say..commerce which i hate, at unsw coz its more prestigious, rather than Busines/Law at uws which i want to do?
what a load of crap.... prestige doesnt equal employment or intelligence.... you'd be surprised to find that employers aren't idiots and they do look beyond your uni name...
And as to your comment about 20 year time waiting outside centrelink with a six pack - what a load of bullsh*t...... If i stay at uws doing the course im doing, i will have a job that will continue after uni by 2nd/3rd year .... geez uws really has shot down my employment prospects?
if UWS has such shit propsects for all its students in general, why the hell did you go to uws in the first place!
