COMMENT

Abstract

As befits a former contributor to these columns Mr W. Easton, the new ATTI President, delivered two unusually literate and digestible addresses at the Association's Harrogate conference. His inaugural address on the theme of student power tailed off slightly into impatient paternalism but faithfully reflected the concern for student interests and the constructive approach to student militancy which is currently shown by many FE college teachers. He became genially avuncular in his reply to Mrs Shirley Williams after dinner. Sir Ronald Gould was more brilliant than usual and reminded us that the NUT has had an appalling problem on its hands in finding a worthy successor to him. Rarely has the ATTI conference been so little bored by its set speeches.
