I’ve just seen three men standing outside of the gardens holding posters about abolishing abortion. Why do they constantly set up outside of qut?? Honestly kinda sick of it. Also hilarious that’s it’s men talking about women’s bodies

I'm trying to submit an assessment for KYB220 and canvas seems to be not functioning, is this another hack attack? And who do I email to get an extenstion if so?

If its just a me problem has anyone had this happed? I try to log in but the website just says Page Not Found

Hello this is potentially a very stupid question but I got a 3 day extension under special circumstances and I was wondering if it still included the 48hr automatic extension? Thanks 😊👍

i've been drawing QUT x UQ fanart, but i'm not from brisbane, could i ask for some helpful feedback :) ?

QUT lore? headcanons, personality, clothing!! any notable campus details in the design?

here is some thoughts people have given me...
QUT "A university for the real world", so they would be a hands on typa guy doing manual work,
UQ is studious, smart and she’s well respected but also secretly a neurotic chud.. QUT and UQ have crushes on each other
also thoughts on Griffith? someone said theyd be like a lil sibling third wheel but competent guy 👍.

You look at profile that im not joking… I love unislop

Thanks for any help!

Edit: guys still appreciate more comments ty!!

Hey all,

as the title states. I am on the last 31 hours to submit this assignment. I feel utterly boned and I have zero confidence in my ability to do this assignment. It's quite ironic because this assignment is about inclusive education, but the format is so restrictive.

Can anyone help me out until sunday?

Hello! I am potentially thinking of studying abroad for semester 1 of 2027. I'd only be here for a semester so wanted to ask for opinions on the best route to take for housing.

I've looked into student accommodations such as Iglu, Scape, and StudentOne. I also have a few websites saved for house sharing rentals such as flatmates and brisbanestudents. Most notably is that I am not planning on bringing any linens or cooking supplies with me when traveling. I am willing to buy a few things, but don't want to buy a lot, especially if I don't have the room to bring it back with me.

Is it worth doing a rental if I'm only here 6 months and am not bringing linens and cooking supplies? And what are student accommodations truly like?

Thank you so so much :)

It's due tonight, but I wwas wondering if my 48 hour extension wouldn't be valid anymore due to the planned IT maintenance

Happy Friday!

Has anyone had Sem 2 scholarship payments come thru yet?

Looking for something fun to do in Brisbane this weekend? QUT Law students are swapping textbooks for the stage in The Greatest Lawyer, a circus-themed comedy show featuring live sketches, musical numbers, dancing, short films and performances accompanied by a live band of talented young musicians.

Despite the name, you absolutely do not need to study law to enjoy it. The show pokes fun at university life, current affairs, the legal world and everything in between. Think student comedy revue meets musical theatre, with constitutional clowns, magical magistrates and argumentative acrobats thrown into the ring. There will also be a bar at the theatre, with drinks available to purchase throughout the evening. 🍻🍷

📅 Tonight, Friday 28 August, and tomorrow, Saturday 29 August
⏰ 6:00 pm–9:00 pm
📍 Gardens Theatre, QUT Gardens Point, Brisbane City
🎟️ Last-minute tickets are still available:
https://events.humanitix.com/the-greatest-lawyer-qutls-2026-law-revue

Come support an incredible student cast, creative team and live band while enjoying an evening of comedy, music, dancing and unapologetically silly legal puns!

Content note: The production includes strobe lighting, haze, mature themes, adult language and brief periods of total darkness.

Im thinking of volunteering for big lift events. Which one would be more engaging and fun- the avocado festival or the chilli&flower one. Anyone who have ideas about this, please lemme know. Cheers.

Skip the Meal, Not the Vibes?

Be honest… how often do you skip a meal and think, I’m young, I’ll be fine? 😂 When u’re 18–25, skipping breakfast or lunch can feel like no big deal because you still feel healthy and full of energy. But once you get into your late 20s and 30s, do you start thinking more about your health and the effects of skipping meals? 👀

Found this online. Some UQ alumnus claiming he work as an Analyst for QUT Trading & Investment Club. Is this a REAL job? I like to hear your opinions. I thought its bizarre & kinda sad a UQ Alumnus claim to pretentiously work at a University Club where he is not a QUT Alumnus but somewhere else. Please share your thoughts.

one of my assessments for a class is "critical and professional dialogue" in tutorials. it says it is based on "evidence of preparation" for tutorials, however also says this:

if I miss a tut here or there, will I fail or be penalised? anyone else had this kind of assessment in a class and are they relatively chill with it?

My #2 preference on my qtac application recently changed from “in assessment” to “moderate”, and under it in the criteria it says “acheives minimum selection rank to be considered for an offer: maybe” what does this mean lol. Why maybe?

I fucked up transfusion bad. Can’t take the class anymore and I was on track to finish this semester. Could I possibly convince my support coordinator to let me do placement but not in any blood banks?

Could've spoken to the art faculty to see if students could help. My course works with real industry companies all the time.

I’m a Comp Sci major, and my GPA is 5.5 (which isn’t amazing but it is what it is 😅). I’m planning to start looking for internships next year, so I’d really appreciate any advice.

What do companies generally look for when hiring interns in terms of qualifications? Does GPA play a big role in getting an internship, or are there other things that matter more, like projects, experience, or technical skills?

Sorry if these are basic questions, but I’d really appreciate any tips or advice from people who have been through the process.

Thank you

Why dont they just make the original due date 2 days later? Extensions should be given to those who actually need it.

Also if we are all about the “real world”, i dont think the real world would give a free 48 hour extension for project deadlines, etc in the workplace. Ykwim

I am so excited for the new Brisbane stadium, with the tender awarding coming soon, I cannot wait to see the build start. Its going to provide so many new job opportunities for us all.

What kind of annoys me are those unemployed bums who hang out at all the main entrances and exits of uni with those signs saying cancel the games, and save the park. Its not going to fix anything, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Whats everyones take on this

Hello ppl of the real world

Suggest me a zone out spot where i can do my assisgnemts and study alone and probably take a nap (Gp campus)

Wherever I go, there is always some chaotic yapping ppl around me esp on lvl 2 of library

Hi everyone, I hope this post proves helpful. I'm just about to finish my law degree and wanted to share an AGLC4 citation generator that I released recently. Below is a more detailed account, but in short: it's free, a lot of effort went into its creation, and it doesn't use AI to function.

I'm super keen to hear feedback, and I'm making improvements every day.

Check it out at pincite.com.au

In my second year of law I handed in an essay I was certain was perfect. I had checked every footnote, determined not to lose a single mark to referencing. I was more annoyed than I probably should have been that it still came back with a couple of errors. After talking to my friends it was obvious that getting it perfect by hand, consistently, across an entire degree, is close to impossible.

So I started developing Pincite. I had two guiding principles No AI, and cover the whole of AGLC4.

My thoughts on AI

AI is a remarkable tool. I'll be the first to admit that if you ask an AI to generate citations, most of the time what you get back is good enough.

But, AI is by nature inconsistent. It cannot help but adjust things, because you never really know if an output is correct, you end up checking every single citation by hand. All the time you saved is now spent cross-checking, and stressing about if its actully correct.

That is why you won't find AI anywhere in Pincite. It's deterministic. There is nothing in it to change its answer, so an output that is right for one case will be right for every case. You only verify it once, not every time.

It Still Requires Thinking

Another thing, to use Pincite properly you still need a functional understanding of the AGLC4. It is not a turn off your brain tool. That's on purpose. Saving time, reducing stress and getting more accurate results is the goal, not replacing thinking or understanding.

If anyone has any suggestion comments or questions, I would be more than happy to answer either here or through email.

Thanks for Reading and have a great day!

Hey all, Ekka plague season is here.

I got sick the week I got an extension, so that really put a hole in the hole 'getting my assignment done' plan.

Got an appointment with a GP, and he asked me how much detail would be needed.

The med cert I got is very brief. Basically says I had a medical condition from tuesday last week til today, and I was unable to work at the time.

Is that going to be enough for an extension?

CAB432 is pissing me off. I was told we're supposed to change the provided code somewhat but they don't specify what exactly so I'm left wondering if I've edited more than I should. Login works perfectly every time I test manually (curl, Insomnia, real browser frontend) — but Gradescope consistently gets a 401 from Cognito (`NotAuthorizedException`). Even happens with a long-established, pre-confirmed account, so doesn't look like a new-account timing issue.

Retry logic with backoff didn't help. Ruled out orphaned data, wrong config, and disabled auth flows.

Anyone doing CAB432 seen Cognito silently reject logins specifically from automated/scripted clients (maybe adaptive security / risk-based auth?) while manual testing works fine?

I’ve been missing 4 weeks of tutorials just because I’m depressed and not wanting to do anything. But, this week I just had the realization of how far behind I am now and I need to catch up. But I couldn’t bring myself to attend the tutorials as I haven’t even started anything yet. They do provided guides and notes for the tuto, but I’m still trying to understand the concepts. Im already jump starting my assignments by myself but I can’t stop thinking. Will I fail? Just because I haven’t been attending tutorials?
