Some influential members of the university administration would very much like to see the end of Forum.
Forum controller Tony Ashenden told the recent special general meeting this when he spoke against a motion which would have given the student press the right to report Forum.
The motion, which in its initial form would have given all news media the right to report Forum, was moved by former Salient editor and Student Press Association head Tony Haas.
Ashenden said that the free speech permitted at Forum had been upposed by certain members of the university administration. He did not name any persons.
The motion was defeated, no voice being heard in support.
