Well it has taken the entire day, but it looks like Chloe and Marama will (be forced to) front.

Wokeism and PC gone mad - $1.3m spent to rename Otago University te reo's name - at a time when the university is under financial stress.
Sooner the new government cut back funding for such nonsense, the better.

The name University of Otago remains, but the reo name has changed to Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka - a metaphor meaning A Place of Many Firsts.

I also shake my head a bit with respect to them sponsoring the HIghlanders.

Nothing wrong with two names to reflect the official language. Do you object to any rebranding expense or just those that relate to adequately reflecting official languages?

How the hell do you justify spending 1.3 million doing it? I can guarantee if you were funding it out of your own pocket you would do it for under 10k and change signage when due to be replaced. Grant Robertson has found nirvana for the fiscally inept.

I wouldn’t rebrand anything. However the right branding and image is supposed to help with the appeal to your target market, so the fancy marketing people reckon…

They must have planned well in advance for Grant Robertson?
New logo is of his HOLE?

So the MSM media is quite not as biased as you make out.
Hopefully you find my posts helpful, but in no way should they be construed as advice. Make your own decision.
