Racism at Auckland University: Vice Chancellor backs action

From Morning Report, 6:16 am on 9 May 2019

Auckland University's Vice Chancellor is sticking with his belief that claims of a growing white supremacist movement at the university are "utter nonsense". A report into bullying, harassment and intimidation on campus was released by the University's Students' Association on Wednesday. It found some students experience systemic and pervasive hate at the University and it had been ramped up in the wake of the Christchurch terrorist attack. Out reporter Katie Scotcher spoke to the Vice Chancellor Stuart McCutcheon, and started by asking him whether he thinks there are any white supremacists on campus.
