Geocache Description:

Welcome to Campus Life?

Picture this, you are 18 years old and you have just completed school with stressful exams and often extreme pressure to succeed.

With your newly obtained drivers licence you and your mates are freer than ever before.

You did well – in fact you did very well and accepted a place in a course at the University of Melbourne. A University that prides itself in excellence and one that strives to attract the best students. In 2008 it attacted students within the top 15 percent of ENTER scores in the state. At the same time bucking the state trend and offering a record number of offers for Commentwealth supported places.

The University of Melbourne also strives to do quality research and has contributed a long list of amazing achievements in many disciplines.

This cache hidden in time for the 2008 round of enrolments and orientation.
I have included a reference for some of the pubs within 1 one block staggering walking distance of a Melbourne University teaching location. - So relax a little too.

To find the cache itself however you will need to sober up and focus. Settle down for wherever your course in life leads you…
