Well it is on again, a day when it is mate V mate in an intense sporting competition that would make the state of origin jealous. Yes it is time once again for interfaculty touch to be held this semester.

Student services are under threat from the proposed VSU legislation. If the legislation is passed as it is, campus life as we know it, will be lost. Sporting facilities, university games, social competitions, club alotments, administrative support, scholarships, discount club fees and gym membership will all suffer. Sydney University Sport proposes an amendment to the bill that will reduce the impact of VSU on university sport.

Show your support for Sydney University Sport by donning your blue and gold colours at the rally on Thursday 28 April, 12 noon on the front lawn.
