TitleDesperate Dan vol.3 no.3 1974AuthorAnonymousDate1974DescriptionDesperate Dan was an irregular sheet produced at the University of Waikato in the 1970s through to the early 80's.
A satirical announcement reveals plans for a university-run wireless broadcasting station called Radio Hillcrest, aimed at enriching Hamilton’s modest cultural scene. The station will allow selected university members to share their views, foster better relations between the university and the town, and generate advertising revenue. Though details remain vague, a sample programme schedule is detailed, hinting at both earnest ambition and tongue-in-cheek commentary on institutional self-importance.Number of Pages2FormatPrinted documentVolume3Number/Issue3Year1974
