Flaunt Your Uni

In the Uni section I think it'd be good if each uni had a sticky with info about the uni, pics of the campus, all that cool stuff. Might convince some of us to go there.
I spent half an hour reading up and looking at pics of UoM. It looks amazing. Better than Monash so far.. (prove me otherwise monash kids :P)

monash might not be as pretty, i admit, but we have a much much larger variety of courses and options
do you want to be at a slightly nicer campus for just 3 or 4 years, or spend the rest of your life knowing you are more qualified with a double degree?

Undergraduate degrees are serious business.

Campus is a factor in uni selection. Especially when you dont particularly fancy any specific course. Its not as though you'd be getting a substandard degree at UoM anyway.

Monash is better than Melbourne because it has a proper IT faculty.

I can't think of anything else really. If only the buildings weren't so incredibly ugly.

I went to UoM for a chemistry excursion and got a tour around monash's chemistry building and found that UoM's chemistry building's facilities were much nicer. I would probably say the same with physics, but I didn't get to see Monash's maths building.

Monash's physics building feels like home. I've spent so much time there...

That said, I don't think I'll be going to Monash.

*Shrugs* i think monash actually offers BETTER degrees for many courses. i've heard physics is better at melbourne, but i know definitively that monash offers the best chem department in the southern hemisphere.
i went to enrollment and o'week at monash and melbourne and monash was much more fun. seems like a much better vibe, more community feel and students got involved and heaps of free stuff.

that said i suppose melbourne has pretty buildings. and a fading reputation. and good locality.

that said, in reality if melbourne kept offering double degrees (and became more selective/exclusive/competitive again) i probably would have gone to melbourne. which would have been a shame, cos i think i will have more fun at monash than i would have had at melbourne.

I reckon, UoM commerce > Monash's commerce though. 

But I could be biased, I dunno.
