    Yup. As of next year there'll be nowhere to study woodwork in NSW except privately (is how I understand it).

    I don't know of any Uni up here except ANU (which isn't NSW anyway). This was apparently an initiative of Fatty O'Barrell, before he got rolled (talk about the world's most expensive bottle of Grange - cost a $everal hundred thousand per year career).

    Looking at those photos, it seems obvious that they closed the professional photography courses years ago.

    Whilst the one year course at Sturt School is a Cert IV, it's not part of CS Uni - just shares a name. Nor is it listed as one of the CSU campuses. Yes, CSU still offers a winemaking course. I can't recall any NSW Uni ever offering a ww course - there may have been, but I've personally never heard of it.
