        History

        The Special Review Committee was established in 1973 as a committee of Senate [2]. It is not found on official listings. It came about as a result of President Nind’s proposals for change in 1973. According to Cole, “David Kettler, of the politics department, knew that it was necessary at such a university-wide mas meeting to have some firm and coherent proposal in everyone’s hands to keep debate under control … They came up with a university’s usual answer to any problem: set up a committee – a Special Review Committee, composed of four students, four faculty and a member of the support staff, chaired by Walter Pitman. The committee was to examine all aspects of the university’s operations with a view to cutting costs and to report in a plenary session of the university before reporting to Senate” [1]. The Special Review Committee issued an interim report in the Autumn of 1973.
