Tom For what it's worth, I agree with Mike. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Wilksch To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia. Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2007 2:19 PM Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Sporting Licences Well as I said, unless you are a current student at Uni, its a bit hard for you to gauge the affect. Yes the services are avaliable in the 'real world' and unsurprisingly they have filled the gap for the most part. In doing so they have killed the campus life. You do _not_ go to Uni for just a degree! You go for the friends, the atmosphere and the environment. I wouldn't normally make a point of this, but I do get very sick of people making these judgements when they simply havent experienced the results. Any other students on the list care to comment?
