Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University, Wellington. Vol. 22, No. 6. Wednesday, June 24, 1959

Problems

Problems

The Union Building will soon be completed and a great deal of planning is still to be brought to fruition in this field alone.

The whole problem of accommodation has yet to be properly faced, the portfolio system has to be introduced, arrangements for students in Palmerston North watched, and there is much room for re-organisation in so many places.

Remember too that you will be faced with the same problems this executive has faced—criticism you don't deserve and praise somebody else should merit—but that is the pitfall of democracy.

You may know better than the students but democracy often means that self-government is better than good government.

One final word. We hope Salient will continue to enjoy the good relationship it has had with the executive, in spite of criticisms and a misunderstanding over in-committee proceedings (now cleared up).
