uni


okay. now that i'm finished seven years of sydney uni, (i finished last thursday with my final presentation!) i can summarise all my favourite courses and recommend a few lecturers.

FAVOURITE COURSES
1. 3rd year philosophy: Kant (Jane Johnson- a lecturer in History and Philosophy of Science- she is AWESOME- you have to try to get in her courses)
2. 3rd year english: Metaphor and discourse (Antonina Harbus, who has now left for Macquarie Uni)
3. 3rd year geography: South East Asia Field School (Phil Hirsch, who is amazing)
4. 2nd year government: Consultation: Community, Business, Government (Lyn Carson)
5. Geography Honours, because i learnt a lot (Phil McManus- my supervisor)
6. 1st year political economy (Frank Stilwell, who if you are not from sydney uni, Frank is a veteran of the 1970's campaign to create an alternative economics department)

And of course, I loved studying one semester at McGill university in Quebec.
