Letter from Student to Salient Vol 5, No. 6. July 31, 1942
Sir,—Would you publish the circulation figures of "Salient"? It has been getting better every issue this year, and every student at Victoria should read it thoroughly, but I fear there are many who do not. I believe there are between 600 and 700 taking lectures up here at present, and if you publish the circulation figures it will show what proportion of students take "Salient." Such a paper can well be the focus of student life.
—Yours, etc.,
Student
[275 copies of the last issue of "Salient" were sold. The 1941 annual general meeting of V.U.C. Students' Association adopted a resolution that half a crown a year be added to the Student Association fee, and that the money so gained be used to finance "Salient," which would then be distributed free to every student, but the College Council held the resolution unconstitutional and quashed it.—Ed.]
