[Ssf] Uni social forum?

[Alison Higgins]

I think Steve has answered the point about the uni social forum - as far
as I am aware it is an attempt to link up campaigns and campaigners at
the uni, and do things together too. Yes, there is someone from Workers
Power involved. I will probably see you all on Saturday at the local
groups meeting so we can discuss these issues further but, re. Dan's
point, I suppose I feel that what I think a social forum should be
differs from what most of the key people in SSF think - i.e. I think
social forums can and should be more than a facilitating space. They
should be more than talking shops - they should be linked with the
labour movement too, and do stuff, run campaigns etc. So yes I have
taken a back seat but I'm still interested in what's going on and don't
want to fall out with anybody!

It's a good point. The only reason I can think of for having a student
SFis that everyone is in a similar location (eg. the Union). That
means they can meet up easily and regularly at times which might not
suit the wider community.
