CAPA Report - 2015
issuu.com/utsvertigo/docs/issue_2
In 2015, Vertigo published both a series of magazines and a series of newspapers. The newspapers attempted to cover actual news, including the workings of the Students' Association.
P13 of Issue 2 holds my report on the Annual Council Meeting of the Council of Australian Postgraduate Associations. While you're there, check out the inane report on nothing by the liberal who took over from me as Postgrad Officer!
issuu.com/utsvertigo/docs/vertigopaper3
On p3, Issue 3 offers an apology for messing up my name, then on p11 publishes my Postgraduate Representative Union report under the name 'CAPA Report.' With the same name misspelling.
issuu.com/utsvertigo/docs/news04
P3 of Issue 4 then apologises, again, but only for the name typo. Solid work!
