Peter Beilby
International Affairs

Nominated: R. Clark.

Seconded: C. H. Chua, R. Abhakorn.

I am a second-year arts student who spent 1966 under VSA in Sarawak. I am President of the International Club, on the International Affairs Sub-committee, and a delegate for WUS.

I feel the part of the International Affairs portfolio concerning overseas students has been sadly neglected. My policy would include support for:—

• An International House.

• Greater liaison with national student bodies and other universities.

• Stronger ties with WUS, VSA, the National Youth Council and NZUSA.

On political issues I am not commited to any particular viewpoint and would therefore formulate policy based on the facts. As an Exec. member, I would support the creation of an Overseas Student Officer's portfolio, and establishment of a Student Senate at Vic.
