Talk:Australian Union of Students

Article redirect
Shouldn't this article either redirect to National Student Union of Aus or have a more complete history of the AUS with references to the new organization? It shouldn't list information about the current organization. The place for that is on the new organization's wiki article. Or is there some ambiguity between two organzations that bare the same name, but have different origins?Fcsuper 01:33, 7 March 2007 (UTC)


 * No. The old AUS is a completely separate organisation from the NUS of today; AUS collapsed completely and was then replaced by NUS after a couple of years. It would be nice to see this expanded, since it was the country's premier student organisation for half a century or so, but a redirect would be inappropriate.


 * As for the "new organisation", quite simply, there isn't one. There's some guy's website, which claims to be a new national union, but there's no verifiable evidence that it actually exists beyond that website - it has no affiliated campuses anywhere, and appears to have not had any media coverage whatsoever. It thus does not belong on Wikipedia. Rebecca 05:11, 8 March 2007 (UTC)


 * So I'm going to remove the bit about AUS still existing, and I too think it should stay but be expanded. It would be interesting to see the archives in Canberra, but I doubt I'll get to spend much time there this year. The fact that there are archives in the national library though leads me to presume that there is quite a bit of good information that would warrant an extensive article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Krisgesling (talk • contribs) 12:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Date of change from NUAUS to AUS
Digging through old papers at home, I found an invitation to a dinner to be held on 30th November, 1970. In part the invite says: "In memorium [sic].  Births.  A.U.S. (Nee N.U.A.U.S.) 1/12/70 at Melbourne. ... Deaths. N.U.A.U.S., 30/11/70 (Result of constitutional change) ... Aged 33 years." I've scanned the invite and uploaded to my Flickr page at http://www.flickr.com/photos/75905404@N00/6154905060 -- and I'm correcting the date in the article, though I'm not sure how o cite this evidence.
