Former vice chair for the National Student Unit (NSU), Sara Mason,
has been elected the NSU's new chair. Mason is in her second-year
at the Southern Institute of Technology and is an international student
from Idaho in the United States. She aims to continue to work in
developing the NSU's new bi-cultural structure. "I believe the
increase in student membership this year is directly related to the
increased support offered to students as the NSU and Te Runanga Tauira
(TRT) stand together." Newly elected NSU vice chair is Lisa
Tangitu, a second-year student at Northtec in Whangarei. Paula King, a second-year student at the Western Institute of Technology in Taranaki, is pleased to serve as TRT chair for another term. She believes TRT students have become a more visible and valued group within NZNO, witnessed by the 78 percent increase in Maori student membership this year. TRT vice chair is Chrystal Turu, a second-year student at the Manukau Institute of Technology. She is of Ngati Hari and Ngati Maniapoto descent. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] |
