VUSA: Lundy 500 distasteful
31 July 2009
For Immediate Release
Lundy 500 distasteful and irresponsible, says student president
Victoria University of Wellington Students’ Association (VUWSA) is disappointed to learn of the decision by student magazine Salient to hold their Lundy 500 event. VUWSA does not support this event.
“The Lundy 500 event is extremely distasteful, and poses a potential safety risk to students and the general public,” said Jasmine Freemantle, VUWSA President.
While Salient is funded by VUWSA, the magazine is independent of the students’ association.
“VUWSA distance ourselves from the event, and wish to make it clear to students and the public that this event is in no way associated with either VUWSA or Victoria University,” concluded Freemantle.
