Salient staff members asked students what they thought of university and what the big issues on campus were. Photographs not appearing are those of eight Malaysian students who, for political reasons, had no comment to make on the situation, and would not have their photos taken. They were not the only ones who wanted to remain anonymous though.

Pat Tuohy:

The big Issue (or science students is that your constantly [unclear: being] concerned with things and [unclear: and] not people. Perhaps the [unclear: Science] faculty could introduce [unclear: a] compulsory humanities unit at stage one.

Fred Ziffell's friend:

Fred Ziffell's friend:

Four units is too much for an intermediate. I've got 14 hours a week in labs. Chemistry I is a plss-off.

I'm pissed off with the, editor of Salient.

R. Earp's friend:

R. Earp's friend:

Food is the biggest bug on campus. There's not enough variety. The cafeteria should start putting charges on plates. It doesn't cost me anything to leave my dirty plate on a table. By the way, can Salient do anything about the weather?

Fred Smith:

Fred Smith:

I'm not pissed off with this place. University is what you make it.

R. Earp:

R. Earp:

Workload is the big issue. It takes up too much time.

I like varsity but I think the workload for science students is pretty heavy. It's about time the heavies on the studass exec exerted a bit more pressure in this direction. It's okay to be doing your thing for people way out yonder, but what about things closer to home.

Noel Yekstort:

The caf has gone downhill over the years. The variety of food has deteriorated and the prices have gone up. Give it to private enterprise.

Mary Jones:

Mary Jones:

I think the caf's disgusting. We pay all that money at the beginning of the year in association fees and what do we gel for it?

The general question of assessment seems to be the key issue. There's too much work with too little time to do it in.
