Lazy kids or bad planning: why won't Australian kids get off their butts? : Comments

By Peter West, published 27/11/2019

Did anyone see the report in ABC that there are huge numbers of cheat-centres?
Maybe you're right- a degree isn't worth much these days

Waverley,

The universities have become clearing centres for mainly Chinese students using their Australian degrees as a ticket towards a permanent residency visa. You don't honestly believe that the Chinese are enrolling in Australian universities for their educational value? You would have to be pretty naive to believe that.

Hasbeen,

You told me you have a BSc (Eng) from Sydney Uni. I'm an alumnus of Sydney and I don't recall it ever awarding a BSc (Eng). To my knowledge it only ever awarded a BE. Would you like to check your testamur to see what it says. Let me guess: You've lost it so you can't check it. Don't worry, Loudmouth has a dozen degrees and he could lend you one of his.

Misopinionated,

So they had a degree in environmental sociology at the Uni of Sydney back in the day ? Really ?

Why your obsession with bits of paper ? You really sound like you've only just graduated with your one and only bit of paper.

of course it's well known that many foreigners get a student visa so they can try to wangle PR
-permanent residence here.

Some students mysteriously seem to be buying large expensive properties as well.

Loudmouth,

Instead of throwing up red herrings as usual, why don't you do something useful and help Hasbeen find his BSc (Eng) testamur. Or lend him one of your dozen degrees. Just erase the BS (Artist) and type over BSc (Eng).
