Well I'm neither of the two, just a HSC student this year. So about the question... tell me all about it. What do you really think of those fresh meat?

I've never heard anyone use the words "Seniors" and "Freshmans". I thought it was an American thing...
Answering the question, Idk. Probably.

It's uni

One of the hardest questions to answer is "What year is this person in?"



That said, I did see a friend of mine at the O-Week Dance Pants party and I'm like: "Hey, what are you doing here?" And he's like "GONNA HIT ON FIRST YEARS!!!!" (he eventually got one girl's number)

and before anyone asks what i was doing there, i was entertaining a few bos-ers

Yeah, no one uses those terms, and no one really cares what year you're in.

Don't use 'senior' or 'freshman'.

Barely know what degree people are doing let alone what year of study they're in - none of it matters.

Saw some asian glama wearing high heels and I actually face palmed myself
haha yeah

I also notice a lot of Asian girls walk around uni during winter time in miniskirts.

I sit there in a jacket long pants and everything going: "what even".


dunno

some people...


It's like I was talking to this girl in my English lecture, she saw some girl in really short shorts come in and she said to me: "Why even bother wearing pants?"

True, however

This ^

You can always pick out the new comers by the way they dress for the first few weeks.
This is also true in the first couple weeks (especially with the girls). You can also spot first years by the amount of equipment they carry (laptop, pens ALL their textbooks). Most people in the later years are much more sparse when it comes to bringing equipment into uni.

The terms are only used in the residential colleges - in which case, yes, there is some form of heirarchy between seniors and fresh - but its only going to come up in a residential college setting. And it isn't that seniors look down on fresh, its just that seniors may get preferential treatment in some ways (eg. picking of rooms). The terms aren't used in actual university. No one even knows what years people are in. :)
