Salient: Victoria University Students' Paper. Vol. 25, No. 10. 1962.

[introduction]

Stud. Ass. fees for next academic year will be raised by ten shillings, last week's S.G.M. decided. Ten shillings will be put towards a new floor for the S.U.B. Work on the floor will probably start in 1963, ex-President Armour Mitchell said, speaking to the motion. The existing facilities would soon be inadequate to cater for student numbers, Mr Mitchell said. Therefore provision should obviously be made for extension. Mitchell asserted that "we could never have too much money" for student facilities.

The motion for amendment was moved Pointon/Robb. Mitchell made a further plea on behalf of past generations of students who had subsidised the building. "Some of these students have not seen the buildings they helped to pay for," said Mr Mitchell. One speaker remarked that projects should be formulated before students are asked to contribute. The meeting carried the motion.
