A further separate suggestion would arise if the proposals in connection with Faculty Committees (infra) are adopted. This would be that the five Faculty representatives should be the student representatives on the Professorial Board.

• A course and Staff Evaluation Scheme should be introduced on the ground that it would provide invaluable information on courses and teaching standards.

At some overseas Universities the scheme is organised by the equivalent to the Students' Association with the result that administrative co-operation is often lacking, returns are often inadequate, and comments slanted.

• There should be one student elected to each Faculty Committee.

• A committee consisting of one academic staff member, one administration staff member, and one or two students appointed by the Association's Executive.

This committee should be empowered to ask any staff, member (be they academic or administration) to answer any questions, to obtain such further evidence as it deems necessary, to make known its findings through the "Gazette" or through "Salient", and to make recommendations to the Council, the Registrar, the Professorial Board, Heads of Departments or any other body.

There seems no reason why complaints concerning the Executive of the Students' Association, and complaints by staff concerning students should not also be heard by this body.
