Curious about Australia
Australia has been my dream destination for as long as I can remember.
Recently I have been considering the opportunity of attending the University of Western Sydney. The College I'm currently attending, offers a joint program with Sydney, where I could further obtain my degree. If anyone could offer me any information regarding the University, or accomodations near it, that would be great. Thanks for the help. |

The University of Western Sydney is a multi-campus one. Do you know the
location of the one you might attend? -- The Commissioner www.the-commissioner.com wrote in message oups.com... Australia has been my dream destination for as long as I can remember.

The University of Western is not the University in Sydney which is
highest regarded. They now have big financial problems and are cutting down on everything. They have some very good courses. For example robotics which I am studying on the Penrith campus. But generally you should check the possibility to attend a different university in Sydney. If you end up in Paramatta campus you are fairly close to the City, but if you are really unlucky you can end up more than 1.30 h from the City. wrote: Australia has been my dream destination for as long as I can remember.

Anyway... When it comes down to it, it doesn't matter what university as
long as you get there. Just go ! It is worth it anyway. Just don't hang to much with all the others Canadians you meet there (there is after my taste to many of them) The reason for this is that they complain all the time and only focusing on the negative things. wrote: Australia has been my dream destination for as long as I can remember.

Oh come now!! Don't be so harsh on 30 million Canadians - of whom you have only been exposed to a small (and obviously spurious) sample of perhaps 2. ;-) Don't dismiss Canadians in general, nor me in particular. This Canuck lived in OZ in 1971-72 and visited in 1985 - brought my Canadian wife with me. I have written about my travels in OZ - always accentuating the positive. As a Canadian taxpayer I figure I can spend my money and energies on whatever I want. I believe in Canuck-OZ trade and in fact import OZ sporting equipment into Canada. It has been more beneficial for the OZ manufacturer than you can imagine! Time to take my boys to OZ on a 2 month bicycling trip. They want to spend WEEKS surfing! Fancy that!! And here I thought I'd be exposing them to another wonder of the world - but first to do the Savannah Way by bicycle and do some fishing and viewing of the landscape and locals - done at 20 km/hr and slower. ***** Note, this is NOT a complaint!! :-) The only complaint I have is that I found out about the Tsunami benefit concert in Melbourne (Feb 27th) last night - too late to make any arrangements to see and hear the re-incarnated Daddy Cool. Not THAT is a COMPLAINT!!! |

I've met an awful lot of Canadians in my time, and only met one I didn't like. People are people, the world over. Some are wonderful, some are best avoided. Where they come from simply isn't the issue. Geodyne |
