Salient. An Organ of Student Opinion at Victoria University, Wellington N.Z. Vol. 22, No. 10. September 14, 1959

Multi-racial Community

Multi-racial Community

"The New Zealand student community is multi-racial . . . New Zealand students have welcomed in their midst Colombo Plan and other students from South East Asia, the South Pacific, and from as far afield as the West Indies, and they are valued and respected members of the student community."

N.Z.U.S.A. "from both a national and an International viewpoint . . . takes its stand, along with so many other organisations and individuals, in a protest against racial discrimination in the selection of the All Black team to tour South Africa in 1960, and calls upon the New Zealand Rugby Football Union to reverse its decision."

The resolutions passed, and the policy statement are to be sent to the Members of Parliament concerned with Maori Affairs, the New Zealand Broadcasting Service, International Student Headquarters, and the National Union of South African Students.

Copies will also be sent to the New Zealand University Rugby Football Union, and the University Rugby football clubs, along with the request that they dis-associate themselves from the N.Z.R.F.U.
