There will be a meeting held this wednesday at the northplace meeting room at 11:30. Please feel free to come along : D Kay

Reports came out last week how poor students really are. It's not really a shocker, because, you guessed it, we are pretty pov. No wonder, considering how much living expenses are, mixed with it being pretty damn hard to find a job, and austudy (if you can even get it) being below the poverty line. I don't understand why students aren't rioting over their conditions. The reports showed we get $4k a year in debt (not including HECS), work on average 14.8 hours a week, and regularly miss classes and generally sacrafice grades for an extra buck to pay for food or bills. The Fed Government reckons we get it easy, and should just cut down on 'excessive living'. It'd be good to hear what you think, and what your experiences are...

Now, I've been hearing tonnes of stuff from uni students who don't seem to be too happy with the GEP - I'd be really interested to hear what people think here.

What do people think of the quality, availability and price of food on campus??? 

Hi Phil, it's underway and will hopefully be out soon - if you've got any particular questions, or want to get involved with the production of EMIT, then feel free to email mugsu.media@general.monash.edu.au, or come to the MUGSU lounge and see Karen Lee - Media Director. She's normally wearing something funky and doodling, or something 

It's good to some traffic here. I'm Chris, and I'm studying social welfare. I'm the President of MUGSU, and will be checking out this forum regularly. So, if you've got questions, comments or anything - it'll be great to hear what is going on with students at Gippsland... Oh, I once rode an osterich

Hi,
I was wondering if someone could tell me when the new edition of EMIT! will be produced?

Cheers
Phil

Hi! my name is Sarah Elston and I'm studying the Ba of Sport and Outdoor Recreation/Education (secondary). I'm doing the multidisciplinary stream with SOSE instead of Sport, majoring in Environmental Science and minoring in Philosophy. I'm the Womyn's Director at MUGSU for the second year in a row and i love it!  I do placement at the Gippsland Education Precinct 2 days a week, and work at a cafe in traralgon also (Iimis).

I have been really happy with how well the Union bar nights have been going this year and how much our reputation is improving as we've been working hard to get this happening!!

I'd love to see people's thoughts on the Union lounge and any ideas/improvements or things you have enjoyed so far so we can continue to make it the place to be!!

Hi guys! Thanks for posting when no-one else is.

Please tell your friends to join and post a random topic or two, then we can have an interesting community thing happening.

Maybe they'll play later in the year.

Did you see The Sonars play on Monday???
