Massey University Regional Seminars for Extramural Students
EXMSS is committed to providing services and representation for students in a transparent and accountable manner as directed by the EXMSS membership. As President I am charged with representing all Massey extramural students. “The President’s Blog“ is a rich envoronment where you can read my views and others comments on Tertiary Education Policy, voluntary vs universal student membership, the need for a student voice, fee rises and the changes extramural students may expect with capped enrolment looming in 2011. In the latest post, Unsatisfactory Academic Progress I discuss the implications of managed enrolment, suggesting that the sun has set on open entry to universities and also discuss what the increased Student Services Levy will deliver for 2010 students. Please add your comments so I can include your opinions in my representational activity.
