MBS differentiates itself from the rest of the University of Melbourne establishment by managing to fit three academic terms into the calendar year rather than the usual two.
As a result, our holiday periods (with the exception of four weeks at Christmas / New Year) do not overlap. In Eurodisney style, for the next few weeks the students at MBS will have the entire campus to themselves. The cafes, sports facilities, and libraries are all open, but they're barely being used. I spent the majority of my Sunday in the law library (sorry ... Legal Resource Centre ;-), a massive establishment with three levels and study space for maybe 400 students, but over the space of six hours there were probably only 30 people who visited, at least a dozen of which were from MBS.
P.S. Don't worry - it's not normal for me to spend my Sundays hidden away in the law library - we're in the middle of mid-term exams at the moment, so there's an immediate need to cram...
