Jobs for the Boys

Victoria has nominated a team for the resident executive of the New Zealand University Students' Association. The elections will be held at NZUSA Easter Council during Tournament The team includes Blizard as President.

At the last executive meeting members realised that they did not have much time to make nominations for resident executive of NZUSA. Recommendations had to be made on the spur of the moment. After about five minutes' thought several suggestions for the Victoria nominations were made. These included.

Keren Clarke as Cultural Affairs Officer (a position she holds now).

Peter Blizard as president (subject to Mrs Blizard's consent).

Bruce Middleton as External Affairs Vice-President.

Tom Robbins as Treasurer.

Robin Bell was nominated for the Vice-President (administration) after asking what the job entailed.

Tom March was nominated as Secretary but felt a bit dubious, whereupon Bell said "If I go administration you go Secretary."

March declined.

There were two nominations for Vice-President (internal); Roger Clarke and Murray Rowlands. A secret ballot was taken, resulting in a tie. Blizard cast his chairman's vote in Rowlands's favour, saying "Better the devil we know than the devil we don't."

The final nomination list was;

President: Peter Blizard.

Vice-President (internal): Murray Rowlands.

Vice-President (external): Roger Pitchforth.

Vice-President (administration): Robin Bell.

Vice-President (travel-exchange) : Cathy Benefield.

Treasurer: Tom Robbins.
