Despite the CHUL setback the possibility still exists that the Student Lobby will find a way to achieve recognition. Many of the masters who composed the bulk of the opposition, cited fears that the name "Student Lobby" might suggest more authority to represent student opinion than the group actually has, and confusion about the group's objectives, as reasons for their negative votes.

If the uses of saccharin were associated with tangible benefits, as, for example, some suggest for diabetics, one might be willing to accept the risks that animal studies tell us might be involved. But many uses of saccharin are trivial and without tangible benefits. Why accept a risk unnecessarily in such circumstances...
