  • I definitely think that knowledge is power and having an education opens you

  • up to so many opportunities that you might not have had before.

  • My name is Kahurangi Simpson and I've just finished the second year of the Bachelor

  • of Laws I definitely want to have the ability to help people like I'd love to

  • work in legal aid or just community support and things like that I think

  • that would be really beneficial. I think the best thing about The Bachelor of

  • Laws that I'm studying is you have to do a whole range of units so there's all

  • your core unit so then you also have units that you can specialize in which is really great

  • Southern Cross was really great because there's only five

  • thousand people in the Gold Coast campus which meant that the smaller class sizes

  • I met so many people just from going to classes with them. So because of the

  • smaller class sizes it is really easy to get to know your lecturer as well so

  • they know you by your name not just your student number on their class role

  • they're all so easy to contact I've sent emails on a Sunday and receive replies

  • back in 20 minutes. So I think it's Southern Cross the connections I've made

  • some of them are definitely being lifelong friendships we've also managed

  • to meet a lot of people that you know could possibly help in a professional

  • kind of setting with law later on.

  • So right now I don't exactly have a ten

  • year goal but I do know that by studying this degree I have so many different options

  • like they have like so many international units and things where I

  • could practice overseas and there's so much that I could do with it. So my

  • advice to somebody who is set on doing something with law is to just come in

  • with an open mind because you never know whether you're going to like another

  • subject even better

I definitely think that knowledge is power and having an education opens you
