UNIVERSITY SENATE
POSITION OF PROFESSORS REPRESENTATION SUGGESTED "It i§ anomalous that for the past six years no member of the Auckland professorial board has sat on the Ifniversity Senate," commented Profesisor W. A. Sewell, formerly chairman of the board, in his annual report to the University College Council-, which met :j yesterday. _ •'! - Professor Sewell said it had been suggested that the chairman of the professorial board should be ex ofjicio a member o£ the Senate. It would Si?eni fitting that the academic head, for the time being, of the college should te a' member of the supreme governing body of the university. It was obviously unfortunate, Professor Sewell added, that tlie academic point of view in Auckland university College should have no voice for so long a time in the deliberations of an assembly which very often considered matters of serious " academic importance.
