Advice

The following format can used to build up a point towards a Campus Knowing KNOT:

  • at least three hours spent attending public lectures, faculty talks, special events or other activity that involves academics or other recognised thought leaders on ANU campus
  • the time may be accumulated at one event, or spread over several events, during the time you are enrolled in the course
  • the topic must relate to SoCIETIE values

Note that a Campus Knowing KNOT may be made up of multiple events, with an expectation that attendance totals approximately three hours per point. A maximum of 2 points on a Campus Knowing KNOT can be claimed per semester.

Completion

The default completion task for a Campus Knowing KNOT is a 200-word reflection. As a starting point, we encourage you to base the reflection on "a question that you asked at the event (or would have asked if there was time)". We would love to see a photo of you at the event or social media post with the reflection.
