Uppity students

Students at New Zealand’s Waiariki Institute of Technology are suing the school because the degree programs they took are unaccredited and won’t allow them to be registered as social workers.  The students majored in the nontraditional “kaupapa Maori and adventure therapy” B.A. programs, and are now claiming that the degrees are worthless.

Waiariki’s academic director doesn’t see any breach of contract.  “They got what they paid for, which was a degree.”
