Maurice O'Brien
Maurice, a fifth year part-time law student, was Vice-President for the past year during which he was N.Z.U.S.A. Corresponding and Resident Executive member. He represented V.U.C. at N.Z.U.S.A.'s August and Easter meetings. For two months, he was Travel Exchange Officer. Chairmanship of the Blues Committee, and the S.C.M.-E.U Executive Committee, membership of the Cafeteria and Constitution Committees were other offices held. Maurice has been Extrav House Manager for two years and Debating Society Treasurer (3 years). He served on Political Science Committee (once as secretary) and on I.S.S. He has debated for V.U.C. three times.
Maurice believes in continuing the sound financial policy which resulted in a financially healthier cafeteria, and a substantial distribution to sports clubs and Salient of the moneys that may become available. In trying to serve the association's best interests, he will oppose attempts to link it with phoney international, semi-political organisations.
Nominator: D. B. Horsley.
