HEX 19-Mar-2005 5:54:57 PM	----------------------------------- anthonyk : '...the ONLY reason that this aggressive law (note universities being FINED if they allow any sort of communal funding to take place) is being introduced is because a communal environment supports critical, social thinking, which generally leads to more left-wing attitudes. the government would much prefer that people were stretched out trying to earn their bread to support themselves to get through their degrees so they can start chasing after a career and wealth, which makes them very productive and easily manipulated little capitalists...' Classic early 1980s 'intellectual'-pre-globalisation-pre-Mikharlgorby rant... AlanD : '...Part of the reason why the previous Labor Federal government wanted everyone to go to university, changed Institutes of Technologies to Universities, and converted TAFE diploma courses to University courses which took an extra year to complete was to hide the true unemployment rate of the time. Now we're in a situation where there is an employment shortage, reducing the number of students on campus is a means to put more people into the employment pool...The whole system has been dumbed down to increase the number of student graduating without thinking about the quality of the students graduating...' Yep & of = significance,of course, is the impact of/by (some,many?) full-fee-paying O/S students who(or is it their parentz , or uni accountants who) put immense pressure on academic staff to deliver a pass minimum result... comprehension = "wha' you meeeeeeean ? --- I no' un'nna staaaaad ...I velly solly ! :-( "... not to mention poor sbelling ... dahleye : >Cmon Guys, ease up on Bob about his spelling. We have already gone through this >when he first joined. He is not intentionally posting with spelling mistakes like some >Chockstoners! hehehe ! ... ----------------------------------------------

I am merely a novice when it comes to this site, I will however try my best to remain opinionated and at times controversial and will of course in the grand tradition of egocentric beahaviour, prepare an accepteance speech in anticipation of my glorious crowning as "Most Prolific (and consequently most likely to develop non climbing related RSI) Poster" Keep the opinions coming, LittleMac ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is post message: Another number thing, this just happens to be post #900 of the thread Cheers All -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
