Salient. Victoria University Student Newspaper. Volume 36, Number 2. 7th March 1973

? This fantasy of a press release is based on the fact that fewer students are availing themselves of Ms Brown's services than last year.

? This fantasy of a press release is based on the fact that fewer students are availing themselves of Ms Brown's services than last year. What seems to have escaped both Ms Brown and the Post is the need to establish a relationship between the drop in registrations and an improvement in the general housing situation. There may be many reasons for the reduction in her work load, or there may be just one. Many students have found the Accommodation Service to be a waste of time for anything other than a lecture on the generous nature of landlords and the evils of mixed flatting. This may account for the many students Salient talked to who no longer put their trust in Ms Brown's ability to find them accommodation. She also suggests that more flats seem to be available now than were in the past. This she bases on what must be a cursory glance at the accommodation columns of the newspapers. It is convenient to ignore the rentals at which these properties are offered. However it is all in form for she and her apology agency known as a service has for so long been selling the needs of students down the drain and it is wishful thinking to expect her to recognise the realities of the situation.
