3. $1500 Fee is a Discrimination

3. $1500 Fee is a Discrimination

David Lo argued we are here on the good will of the NZ government and hence should accept discrimination and prosecution with dignity. To see the attack on overseas students in isolation is plain short sightedness. The issue must be viewed in the context of the NZ government's tragic Education cuts policy, and that the overseas students were made a convenient scapegoat. Hence, our protest against the discriminatory fees is totally justified and has enjoyed the full support of NZ students and staff, through the Professorial Board, University Council, VUWSA and NZUSA.
