| 5. | They wish to see a more liberal policy with regard to control over Salient. | ||||||
| 6. | Student Opinion. It is time that student opinion as expressed in A.G.M.'s is acted upon by the Executive. But as this is not enough, an effort to canvass student opinion on vital issues should be attempted by the Executive when it is not otherwise forthcoming. | ||||||
