On Dit
''On Dit'' is a student newspaper funded by the Adelaide University Union and advertising revenue which is published fortnightly during semester time. Founded in 1932, it is the third oldest student newspaper in Australia along with ''Semper Floreat'' (which was first published in the same year as on Dit). The paper replaced its precursor the '' Varsity Ragge'' which ran from 1928 to 1931 when it ended because of what ''On Dit'' described in its first edition as 'student apathy'. The ''Varsity Ragge'' returned in 1934 for a single edition as a rival to ''On Dit.'' Name '' On-dit'' () is a term for hearsay; its most literal translation is " one says," but French uses '' on'' similarly to the generic use of "they" in English. This is why less literal translations ("so I hear," "what people are saying," "rumour," "they say," "we say," "people say") may be more appropriate. In protest against French nuclear testing in the Pacific, in 1972 the editors refused to use the paper's origi ...

Voluntary Student Unionism
Voluntary student unionism (VSU), as it is known in Australia, or voluntary student membership (VSM), as it is known in New Zealand, is a policy under which membership of – and payment of membership fees to – university student organisations is voluntary. Australia passed legislation enacting VSU in 2005, which came into force on 1 July 2006. Forms of VSU in Australia had been law in the state of Western Australia from 1994 until 2002, and in Victoria from 1994 to 2000. New Zealand passed legislation enacting VSM in 2011, rules which came into force on 1 January 2012. Arguments and issues Arguments for and against VSU typically fall into three broad categories: civil rights impacts, social impacts, and economic impacts. The civil rights argument Requiring membership of student organisations is seen by some as a form of forced unionisation, contrary to freedom of association.
