Did they seriously protest in a Commerce lecture? Now that is fairly extreme lol

i don't remember them coming into any of my commerce lectures, but they did come into one of our math lectures.

Is that why UoM had to slash its number of Arts subjects in two and made large portions of the faculty redundant? :)

Sif we need arts. Maths or GTFO! :)

I don't remember them protesting in maths lectures, but they did have one guy turn up at almost every lecture in Melbourne.

There was an actual protest, with some guy and a loudspeaker and his fellow future Macca's workmates that stormed into the Introductory Macroeconomics lecture. I forgot what stream it was.

No. Some waste all their time campaigning for minimum wage hikes, and this ultimately makes some of the other Arts students become unemployed instead.













LOL but of course there are some Arts students who get jobs other than at fast-food outlets.

sounds like an 'acquaintance' of mine who is going to get an Arts degree and work at Safeway for the rest of his life.

hm do any of the klders remember that speech we got at melb uni?
The lady was one of the head people at the uni, I think she organised the program or something (sorry super bad memory) and she'd done a med degree. The other guy (vice-chancellor?) then talked about how he got 99.something and ''decided to do what some people called 'wasting my score', by doing an arts degree'' and the lady said something like 'and he's now my boss!'
or something.
I can't really remember so I made it sound shit haha but at the time it showed the value of doing an arts degrees ok! /end rant
