The University of Auckland’s mandatory ‘Waipapa Taumata Rau’ course forces students to pay for their own indoctrination. Politically slanted content around the Treaty and tikanga offers little in the career value, while denying students the opportunity to choose alternative courses that align with their interests.

It’s time respect student choice and academic freedom.


We call on the University of Auckland to end the compulsory ‘Waipapa Taumata Rau’ programme for first-year students.”
