Proctor to be Probed
The University is required to review all of its administrative departments at least once every five to seven years. The Proctor’s Office will be put under what is called an ‘Administrative Review’.
The Proctor’s Office is responsible for student discipline and the running of the Campus Watch service. It also liaises with Dunedin Police to ensure that misbehaving students are appropriately dealt with.
As part of this review, students can make submissions about their views on the office. OUSA President Harriet Geoghegan is urging all students to consider making a submission to the review panel. “All students can and should do a submission. First in writing – it can be anything from a one-liner to a thesis – and then they can speak to the panel.”
