Peter Rosier, a law student from Canterbury, has been elected education vice-president of NZUSA.

Mr Rosier, who has graduated LI.B. and is presently studying for his LI.M. and tutoring in law. fills the vacancy left by the resignation of Miss Edna Tail.

Asked about the work he sees entailed in his office, Mr Rosier, a former Education Officer of the Canterbury Students' Association. said: "At the moment I am involved in carrying out the directions of Easier Council which in the main part are undone and which have to be done by August.

"This is just about a fulltime job until them.

"At the moment we are preparing submissions for the National Development Conference and these have to be in by August 28.

"We are also preparing a case for increased bursaries in conjunction With Victoria for the consideration of council which will decide when and if the case will be presented

"In addition we are preparing a new pamphlet on the bond to replace the much criticised Beware of Bond publication.

"It will cover all bonding systems, but will still centre on the teaching bond as this is the most invidious one.

"The present pamphlet is very emotional and not particularly valuable.

"Its lack of objectivity often denies it entry into schools where it is most required," Mr Rosier said.

'After August we hope to have a full-time education research officer who will enable NZUSA to present far more convincing arguments and further more undertake far more work than is possible with the part-time nature of the education vice-president."
