The rumours at Uni Adelaide are true – management is examining, “trimesterisation.”

But there is a huge however attached; the university says, “no decision has been made to change the scheduling of our teaching. If a specific trimesterisation model is to be explored further, consultation with students and staff will be undertaken.”

Quite a lot of consultation would be wise –  UNSW started talking about a trimester system three years back and after the launch this year student groups are still talking, just not favourably.
