The law building- Terrible.

So guys I had a day off work on Friday and decided to give Monash a tour. As soon as I got there I made my way to the law building and I was extremely surprised by how bad it looked aesthetically.

It just seemed so old and dead inside, and to be honest I was expecting it to be a lot better considering the reputation of the law program at Monash.


Am I the only one who was very surprised by the building ?

Are all the classes held in the building ?

Is there more than one law building ? I was in the one with the Library. (Not sure if that narrows it down)

Ah ok, that's not the Menzies then, my bad.

pi, Menzies is the Arts/Commerce/Education building, not the Law building, the law building is the one opposite the bus stop (you've been in the Law Library right? :\)

Anyway, who cares about how the building looks? It's not like you're gonna be there appreciating the buildings every day. The general feeling wears off after a few weeks.

Actually, I researched that rumour. It's not true. I still like to blame UoM though.

Yeah they do, and btw, Menzies looks shit from the outside, but inside it's actually really nice :P

That's because it's just been rennovated. It was terrible before that.

In my 4 years of law so far I've only had one law lecture and 2 law tutes in the law building. God knows wtf they actually do with those rooms

Most law classes are in the Menzies, which is ugly on the outside but the inside is renovated and looks half decent now (also watching people get stuck in the revolving doors is quality free entertainment)

And if you're super lucky you get to walk across to the other side of campus and have classes in the science/engineering buildings, yay

My Jap classes are in law building this semester.
I forget what unit it was, but I had the tutes for one of my BusEco units in there too.
