Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria, Wellington. Vol. 22, No. 9. Thursday, August 13, 1959

[Introduction]

Let us try to get the "night-school" problem into focus. A breakdown by faculties of the 1958 students' roll is printed below:

Part-Time Full-Time
Law Faculty 205 115
Commerce Faculty 560 37
Arts Faculty 742 362
Science Faculty 192 378
Others 51 37
Totals 1,750 929

As long as we have a Law School and a Commerce Faculty at Victoria we will have a "night school." This is obvious. What is surprising is that the number of part-timers in the Arts Faculty is as great as that in the first two combined. Here, you would say, is where the pruning could be done.
