At present NZUAC have plans to invite the Australian Dance theatre, a cartoonist and political speaker. I fully support this participation at present not only includes those given, but also contact with a group in the USA in order to bring some activity here.
I believe there is too much dead wood in the Student Association. Action is vital. I would continue to organize such activities such as a Cultural Clubs Day which I have already initiated.
The sleeping Student Association needs to be awoken.
