All Students To Pay For Sports Trips?
All Students To Pay For Sports Trips?
It was moved at a meeting of the University Sports Council on May 29 that a levy be exacted from all students to pay for overseas sports teams.
The motion ran: "That this council recommends that the VUW delegates to NZUSA strongly support the motion that a levy from all students be raised for a sports fund at the NZUSA Winter Council." It was passed with the dissent of two delegates.
The amount, about 1/6 per student, would be to aid teams for overseas tours.
If this amount were levied from all students in New Zealand the sum of £900 would be raised—enough to send three students at the most on a good tour.
