Welcome to the O-Wiki, a Wikipedia-like resource of everything you need to know about UNSW, and many aspects of the student life there. Most of the content on this site has been written by members of the Arc's Orientation Week volunteer program (Yellow Shirts), although anyone can add or edit content.
This is a great resource to find information or general tid-bits on what facts, figures and myths about the campus, as well as the service offerings that UNSW and various student services provide. While we make every effort to ensure the information presented here is accurate and up to date, be sure to confirm any information (particularly course related information) on the relevant page at http://www.unsw.edu.au.
