Alan Browne
Nominated: R. E. Booth.
Seconded: L. A. Skinner, D. Clark.
Alan Browne is a third year science student, majoring in Chemistry.
He is Not a member of the 'posh pussy' cult.
Accommodation: He is not convinced that Halls of Residence are necessarily the best idea for student accommodation. or that enough students want to live in them, although he realises the benefits to some first year studetns. Although this accommodation is better than none, he would prefer to see large blocks of self-contained flats, along the lines of those being erected in Hanson Street, allowing greater independence.
General: There is not enough representation of science students on the executive, mainly because they don't have the time. Alan will have ample time next year to fully represent science students on exec.
