Students Liberation Seminar

Students Liberation Seminar

N.Z.U.S.A. will be holding a seminar on education in New Zealand, and education alternatives during the May holidays. It is hoped that the seminar will offer an imaginative voice on the whole range of education, from pre-school to tertiary activity, to help counter the staid and narrow view of education presented by the Educational Priorities Conference.

At this seminar there will not be any so-called experts pontificating on the need for 'wall to wall carpet in the classroom'. Rather, we want the voices of those suffering in our educational institutions to be heard loud and clear, along with those engaged in educational experiments and those who are just interested in trying to promote educational ideas that do not stunt people's development.

The seminar is planned to be informal so that everyone has an opportunity to speak. Before organisational details are settled we would like your ideas on the seminar so that we can try to make sure it meets people's wishes. Also although there will be no registrations, we need to know how many are interested in coming.

It is proposed that the seminar be held at Victoria University's Student Union Hall from May 9th — 11th. If you are interested; if you know of any other parties likely to be interested; if you have any ideas about the seminar, contact Gary Emms, Education Vice-President NZUSA, Box 6368 Te Aro, Wellington, or phone 555-630.
