Media Release - VUW Vice Chancellor to Address Students

An unprecedented gesture of good faith, is how Jeremy Greenbrook, President of the Victoria University of Wellington Students' Association (VUWSA) is describing Vice Chancellor Pat Walsh’s decision to address the Student Representative Council (SRC).

“Professor Walsh is clearly showing that he is interested in what students have to say” said Greenbrook. “This is a remarkable turn around, considering the SRC moved numerous motions of no confidence and burned in effigy his predecessor, Professor Stuart McCutcheon.”

Professor Pat Walsh will be addressing the Student Representative Council in the Victoria University Quad at 12:50 on Wednesday 23 March.

“For so long, students have been seen as an annoyance by university management. At last we have a Vice Chancellor who is willing to take us seriously”, said Greenbrook.
