Australian One - Day

Australian students will hold a "work-out," probably on April 20 next. They aim to arouse public awareness of the inadequacies of the Australian education system.

Students will stay away from lectures so that they can work on some educational project.

The individual student bodies have yet to confirm the decision of the National Union of Australian University Students.

However at recent meetings which discussed the proposals only Sydney University opposed the scheme. At NUAUS's meeting four universities voted against the scheme, which was carried by 30 votes to 16.
