“REFLECTION ON HONOUR”
SOUTHERN COLLEGES PROTEST CARNEGIE DISPUTE Press Association DUNEDIN, To-day. The Otago University Council passed the following resolution at a meeting yesterday: “Referring to the statement reported to have been made by the president of the Auckland University College suggesting that this council and that of Canterbury College had gone behind the backs of the two colleges in the rsorth Island in applying for a grant from the Carnegie Corporation, this council endorses the statement published in its behalf by the vice-chan-cellor. and regrets that Sir George Fowlds should, without the slightest justification, have made such serious reflections upon the honour of the two Southern colleges.’* During the discussion Sir James Allen said Mr. Studholme had not gone to the Carnegie Corporation on his own initiative. He had gone there at the invitation of the chairman of trustees, who invited him to come, as he knew he was travelling through America and it was considered a convenient opportunity to meet him and discuss the questions the New Zealand University was dealing with in regard to grants.
