Victoria Uni name change vetoed

From The Panel, 4:09 pm on 19 December 2018

Education Minister Chris Hipkins has declined the application for Victoria University to legally change its name to the University of Wellington.

Mr Hipkins says this is because not enough opinions were canvassed, considering the level of opposition to the change by staff, students and alumni.

The panelists tell us what they think.
