At least it seems now that the students are going to be represented by our council, by 'our council' I refer at least to its President. The last SGM showed almost unanimous support for him, a person, perhaps the only one, concerned with policies which affect all of us. The attack on him was pitiful in its lack of substance. To allege he is incompetent due to his failing to give total supportive action for each of the varied committees does not hold against any President, manager, or holder of similar office. His position is one of delegation and continuity. If the people delegated to one area cannot do the job without his immediate leadership it is they who are incompetent.

It is heartening to see that the body of students could see this fallacy. Their actions and support indicate an awareness of problems which do affect them, as compared to issues which are politically abstract from their reality where they are labelled 'apathetic'!

It is to be hoped that now our support has been shown, with it's reasons apparent, other Executive members will forget any personal interests and squables and get together to do what people in that position should do - collectively represent the students as a body. Representatives against the present problem, the economic situation.
