Bill Gruar (above) is the new Editor of Focus.

Mr Gruar, a former (1968) Editor of Canta, defeated Don Hill and Jim Hopkins in an election on 27 April.

Mr Gruar said in his application for the Editorship that "the key idea of Focus is to focus student opinion and reveal this to the outside. Focus must become a medium in which students become so attractive and, at the same time, available, that the public has to read about university students."
