Steve,

I was one of those people who voted to delete this article and I stand by
the vote although I sympathise with you.

You could go to Deletion review. However, I suggested in the discussion that
the subject could warrant a brief mention on the University of Melbourne
article. However, unless it had members who went on to have notable musical
careers or had some other form of impact on the wider world, I don't think
it warrants a standalone article.
