Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University, Wellington N.Z. Vol. 22, No. 10. September 14, 1959

[Introduction]

Maybe it was a mere passing whim which prompted Massey rep. Peter O'Brien to sweep out the N.Z.U.S.A. meeting room when the Resident Executive met last.

Anyway, the clean red carpet, along with the posters and the supper, were the bright spots during the following three dull hours.

While president Bernie Galvin was absent for the first three-quarters of an hour, Auckland rep. Ted Woodfield chaired the meeting, dealt swiftly with international affairs.

Mr Galvin arrived, leafed through the minutes of the August N.Z.U.SA. council meeting and had them ratified speedily, David Stone (Lincoln) being absent for a short time.

Few clues were dropped about N.Z.U.S.A's submissions to the Education Commission. Students are to seek substantial increases in the amounts spent on bursaries annually and to press for changes in the accommodation situation, especially concerning residential halls within the universities.
