SAMS
Month
To our scientific friends!
Thank you all for coming to our events and supporting the society in any means possible. It is an appropriate time now to wish you all a fond farewell, from your delectable Arc Delegate, Laura Baker, the terrific Treasurer, Laura Brown, and your humble Creative Director, me, Andrew Wong.
We will be leaving the country very soon, where we will be over in North America to study in other wonderful universities as exchange students. We are heading off to the University of British Columbia (Canada), McGill University (Canada) and the University of California, Los Angeles (USA) (in the order of names mentioned above). This means we will not be able to fulfil the duties we have once held as students of UNSW.
This is not the end! We will be back next year for some more SAMS fun, and if there are any questions you would like answered, or would like to get in contact with any of us, we can be reached through the ‘Ask’ portal to your right, as well as through email, at UNSWSAMS@gmail.com.
On behalf of the three of us, we wish you all the best in your studies, and will look forward to seeing you again next year.
Okay, a little late on the scene but if you’ve not heard of UNSW Rectangles, you have been deprived of a massive tool that would have made timetabling a lot easier.
To the uninitiated, Rectangles allows you to generate all possible timetables based off subject code inputs for a given semester. You can then view all prospective timetables according to a parameter that suits your lifestyle- be it days off, no early starts, less time at uni etc. etc.
In a nutshell, use this tool.
This is your fellow scienteer Andrew chiming in to tell you that staying up to study is a BAD idea. This is not helped by the fact this entry is posted at 1AM.
SAMS wishes you all the best in the upcoming exam period. Let it be known these are not exams written by spawns from Stygian hell. Take comfort in the fact that at the end of it all, consumption of a beverage containing modest amounts of ethanol are encouraged and done with peers (and don’t forget, moderation).
