New Uni Model
I am for once trying to do some actual work in my office today. However, moments ago I was distracted by a bunch of smelly students protesting against the new University of Melbourne model. And in The Age today there are more students whinging:
Creative arts students will lodge a formal complaint against Melbourne University, claiming they are being short-changed and not getting the degree they were promised as it shifts to a US-style model.
Creative arts is one of 96 degrees being cut as the university adopts the Melbourne Model, eventually teaching only six undergraduate courses and moving all professional programs to graduate level.
The university will continue to teach existing courses until all students finish, but creative arts students say the prestigious degree they enrolled in has disappeared, subjects have been cut, contact hours have been reduced and staff who left over summer have not been replaced.
Meanwhile our country has nobody doing science. That'll teach them for doing creative arts, I say.

From 102 undergrad degrees, to 6... that is pretty freakin astounding.
What are they going to be? Science, Arts, Engineering, ... i cant even think of what else. Better than Griffith Uni's trend towards Bachelor Degree in Friendly Hand-Holding methinks.
All i know, is DEATH TO PRESTIGIOUS ARTS DEGREES!! Fucking "Gender Studies"... who the FUCK thinks they deserve credit for doing gender studies? Tell you what, GET BACK IN THE KITCHEN AND STUDY THE RECIPE BOOK, WENCHES!!!!!
VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!!
p.s. good to see you remembered how to update your blog again, vermin.
Been busy doing work, and stuff. Thought I'd update the blog since there are a few nerdy events coming up.... speaking of which, Star Wars day has just been.
If people want to know how to make movies, just watcht tons of them. It worked for Tarantino. Though, he does rip off movies scenes (read "homage" in movie wank speak) like there's no tomorrow.
wow, you're a sexist pig, aren't you?
