While I basically agree, the green bridge makes travelling between uq
and the city quick and easy. We'd probably have to get some extra 109
services as we'd be going opposite to the peak flow, but it sounds
like qut have got that covered.

I think having the main venues at qut but the accom at uq is quite
workable. We could even have some things at uq, for example, the
dinner, the proffessional night or the open day.
