So...quite a successful evening. As mentioned earlier, I interviewed Jane Anderson, the instigator of the 'How to do a BA' story.
THEN: I went to this SASCO meeting. It was hectic. Huge scandal, but basically, I could make the university look terrible. And I think I feel obliged to. They are acting terribly.
Although...it's a bit of a conflict of interests. I am definitely not neutral on this issue. I was taking part in the meeting in the most inflammatory, vigourous way possible - at one stage I called on the SASCO leadership to not be scared to directly threaten the university. Afterwards one of their very outspoken members told me I was 'too radical for [her]'. She was being nice of course...but still.....
So anyway. At this stage I'm making a decision about whether or not I feel like staying up for however long it takes me to put together a story to send to the Daily Dispatch tomorrow morning.... I really feel I should. This needs to get out. But I'm soooooooo tired.....urrrrrghhhh.....mmmmmmmmm....

Hope you kept it up, Luke. Well done on uncovering quite a stink. If you need to make contact with the Daily Dispatch, speak to Jan, the Deputy News Editor. His number is 043 702 2117. Tell him you're in the same group as me.
The conflict of interest raises an interesting ethical problem, but I think as long as you give Admin fair and prominent space to comment in your article (i.e. within the first two paragraphs) and don't editorialise it should be fine.
