EX-SOLDIER STUDENTS.
DIFFICULTIES IN OTAGO.
The large number of applications for university education has given the Otago Repatriation Board a good deal of concern. Most of the students are medical or divinity. As the divinity students in pre-war times were in the habit of earning enough by casual preaching and work in the vacation to pay their expenses, assistance for six months is expected to give them an opportunity to get on a pre-war footing. As regards medical students, th» University is preatlv overcrowded., and it is stated there will be a difficulty on the part, of many students to gain sufficient instruction to pass their examinations. It is the intention of the board to obtain a report from the Dean of tho Faculty on each case at the end of tho present term, and carefullv scrutinise each case, with a view to ascertaining whether further assistance L, ad- i visable.
