The focusing of the University spirit in Salient has not been haphazard but the result of differing opinions and emphases [unclear: ciiting] a policy which, in fourteen years, has formed a unique tradition.
A tradition is built slowly and is finally found to be solid and certain. Salient's was first accurately charted last year by Old Timer as:
(i) | To lead students in the fulfilment of their responsibilities and the maintenance of their rights; |
(ii) | To keep students informed of events in the college and what is of importance outside the college. |
(iii) | To act as an honest muckraker in commentary on national and international affairs; |
(iv) | To stimulate intellectual controversy; and |
(v) | To create a V.U.C. consciousness by making students aware of the origins, traditions and purpose of Victoria College. |
