What sort of vacation are you planning at the end of this year?

Possibly you'll be working for most of it. Possibly if you're one of the lucky ones, you'll be reading all those books you've been meaning to read for so long.

But before you rush away to immure yourself somewhere in the wilds until the beginning of next year, consider Congress. Congress is, in short, that time honoured institution, the New Zealand University Students Association Congress held annually at Curious Cove. The next will be the twelfth since its inception in 1957 and, we hope, the best.
