The northern suburbs of Dunedin are reawakening from their
summer slumber as University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic
students move back into the area to prepare for a new
academic year.
Student disciplinary matters at the University of Otago will
be discussed behind closed doors at its first council meeting
of the year this week - three months after criticisms were
made by a council member about how disciplinary outcomes were
being ignored by media.
A photo-covered wall in the office of Donna Jones at the
Otago University Students' Association headquarters says all
you need to know about the self-confessed "people person".
The Dunedin City Council,
police and the University of Otago have student street
parties like the Hyde St keg party - which Mayor Dave Cull
yesterday labelled "too dangerous to continue" - firmly in
their sights.
