Salient. Victoria University Student Newspaper. Volume 36, Number 7. 11th April 1973

[Introduction]

Through a motion passed at the A.G.M. the Students Association became ELF, the Education Liberation Front, the aims of which are outlined below. A report of the A.G.M. appears on page 11.

The universities and schools are dead. What is needed is a movement to chop them down.

Be an ELF!

How does a new true education system emerge out of the old system of mis-education?

Like a toadstool upon a rotting trunk. What we can use from the old system we will use. Learning belongs to the people: when the student rejects the institution she or he is in a position to use the material of the university outside its institutional structure. She can use the ease of access available in a college to equipment and materials to the people who learn of their own reality.
