Salient: An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University Wellington. Vol. 23. No. 1. 1960

[introduction]

Congress 1960 was one of the most valuable and stimulating events I have ever had the privilege to attend. The many-sided aspects of the week at Curious Cove made Congress a fascinating holiday. Not the least was the feeling, as well as the actuality, of being away from everything and away from the direct impact of the world's affairs—almost like being in that proverbial ivory tower except that there was no hint of pedantry or splendid isolation. Many if not all the subjects which were presented to us in the lectures or were brought up in discussion were directly related to our normal (or abnormal) experiences.
