Shop by aspiration not by ENTER

• The achievement of students goals and aspirations
  requires that THEY know what they are
• Students do not always know what they want
• Business is not a generic degree when you do
  not know what you want to do
• Students with low ENTERs do well in a practical
  environment
• Swinburne as a stepping stone to the achievement
  of life goals through practical application of
  real world learning
