Abortion debate on Adelaide Uni

By Maddie Shaw

ADELAIDE — The abortion debate has fired up again at Adelaide University. Two male students recently organised the resurrection of the so-called "Pro-Life Club" amidst a sea of misleading, emotive posters and displays of plastic foetuses.

The inaugural general meeting of the anti-choice club was attended by approximately 25 members, mostly men. Also present were 10 women protest against the formation of a group aiming to block or remove a woman's right to choose a safe abortion.

Since then, a Pro-Choice Club has been formed. With well over 50 members at the first meeting, it seems that resistance will be strong. Interested women and men can contact the convener, Maddie Shaw, on 303 5404 for further information.
