Oooooo!

The Glue hoodies have arrived!



They're currently sitting in Glue HQ waiting to be unleashed!



Joey (who actually sits in on most of our Glue leaders' meetings) doesn't know what all the fuss is about. =)

Engrish strikes!



Here's something off the Sydney Buses website! I suppose the ball lanes should be diverting diversion in this case, but Mitchell will be full of areus services. Yep! =)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Diversions on Pittwater Road services, delays expected

Due to a fallen power pole in Brookvale on Pittwater Road at Chard Road, ball northbound lanes areus services are closed to traffic. Buses are diverting diversion via Sydenham Rd, Mitchell and then back onto Pittwater Rd.

Delays are expected so please allow extra travelling time when planning your trip.

Unimail: All Students - Examination Changes

Dear Students,

The new academic calendar adopted from 2008 requires a number of changes to the way examinations are conducted. The principal changes are:

- a shorter examination period
- timetabling of examination in 3 exam periods each day
- exams on Saturdays

In order to accommodate the proposed number of exams in a 3 exam per day schedule, exams in June 2008 will be scheduled Monday to Thursday as follows:

Morning 08:45 - 12:00 (3 hour examinations)
Afternoon 13:45 - 16:00 (2 hour examinations)
Evening 17:45 - 20:00 (2 hour examinations)

Examinations on Fridays will be scheduled:

Morning 08:45 - 12:00
Afternoon 13:45 - 16:00

Examinations on Saturdays will be scheduled:

Morning 08:45 - 12:00
Afternoon 13:45 - 17:00

Saturday and evening examinations will be held at Randwick Racecourse; the University is currently negotiating appropriate security and transport options for the safety and convenience of students.

The number of examinations timetabled to occur on a Saturday will be restricted to the minimum necessary to meet Faculty needs; these are likely to be 3 hour examinations. Students who are unable to sit Saturday exams for religious reasons can request alternative arrangements. Students who have employment or sporting commitments on a Saturday can request a statement from UNSW Student Central confirming the student's obligation to attend the scheduled examination.

Please note: Students will NOT be required to sit more than 2 exams each day.


Regards
Professor Joan Cooper
Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Students) and Registrar
