Desperate Dan vol.5 no.2 1976

Description

TitleDesperate Dan vol.5 no.2 1976AuthorAnonymousDate1976DescriptionDesperate Dan was an irregular sheet produced at the University of Waikato in the 1970s through to the early 80's.

The community reels at news that the Quinquennial Grant has been slashed to a mere $47.88, though university leaders insist they are prepared. After months of planning, they unveil a scheme to keep essentials afloat - ambitious programs trimmed, but no slackers tolerated - under the jaunty motto Laborare est jucundum (“Work is delightful”). To rally support, full‑page ads and media campaigns are promised, with this issue offering a tongue‑in‑cheek preview of the university’s “collective salvation.”
Also featured: appeals and miscellaneous services; a report from military correspondent Dangerman on the “Campus War Games Declared a ‘Qualified Success’ - University Ready to Repel Hostile Interests!”; and a special contribution from our Clairvoyant Correspondent, who insists time runs backwards, with Judgement Day as the first event and Creation as the last - requiring history itself to be rewritten in reverse.
