I am sure a group of designers could have got together and come up with some solutions to meeting budget and still providing a quality applied design education environment for students. Wonder of you were given that opportunity?

Sadly Unitec doesn't understand the relationship between the design industries and the acadamies. Industry employs graduates because their thinking, design and production skills loose currency in the market. Industry understands, even if Unitec appears not to, that the visionary, specualtive and innovative enmerge in the design schools and not in industry. Renewal happens outside.

While it is valuable to have contributions from industry this does not give assurance of quality teaching and runs the risk of losing the continuity required to implement ongoing development of quality teaching programmes

A decision with little regard for the average worker.It is not unusual that this is timely always at the end of the year,another indication that not much thought is given to the worker.

Absurd to imagine that trained staff can be replaced by tutors 'from the industry'

The 2014, Year 3 Dtudents require consistency of teaching staff for the completion of their degree. Changes to staff for their final year will be detrimental to their degree outcomes. Rescind your decision Unitec and give the third year students their right to the education they started and signed up for in 2011.
