Former New Zealand governor general Sir Anand Satyanand has been appointed chancellor of 바카라사이트 University of Waikato, effective immediately.
The one-time lawyer, district court judge and parliamentary ombudsman replaces former prime minister James Bolger, whose 12-year term as chancellor ended in June. It is 바카라사이트 second high-profile chancellorial appointment in 바카라사이트 region in a week, after former Australian foreign minister and prime ministerial aspirant Julie Bishop was named chancellor of 바카라사이트 Australian National University.
Sir Anand said 바카라사이트 position offered 바카라사이트 “exciting new challenge” of working at 바카라사이트 governance level of a university in 바카라사이트 middle of an “expansion and development” phase.
Waikato, which ranks fifth among 바카라사이트 country’s universities, opened a new campus in 바카라사이트 coastal city of Tauranga in April. It has unveiled a 20-year master plan for 바카라사이트 development of its main campus in New Zealand’s fourth biggest city, Hamilton, about 68 miles (110km) south of Auckland.
Sir Anand said his association with Waikato began when, as governor general, he delivered a lecture at 바카라사이트 law school about 바카라사이트 connections between 바카라사이트 position and New Zealand’s election system.
He subsequently spent three years as a consultant on a postgraduate law programme and “was one of a number of outside people that came to give 바카라사이트ir advice on papers submitted by scholars”.
Sir Anand has also announced his intention to step down as chairman of 바카라사이트 Royal Commission of Inquiry into Historical Abuse in State Care and in 바카라사이트 Care of Faith-based Institutions, which he has led since its establishment early last year. He told reporters that 바카라사이트 experience had been “both heartening and heart-breaking” and that he had decided to step aside now that 바카라사이트 development stage of 바카라사이트 inquiry was nearing completion.
Neil Quigley, Waikato’s vice-chancellor, said 바카라사이트 university had spent months securing Mr Bolger’s successor, initiating discussions in February and appointing?him to council during Mr Bolger’s last meeting in May.
Professor Quigley said Sir Anand would bring “a wealth of knowledge” and 바카라사이트 university would “benefit enormously from Sir Anand’s wisdom and experience”.
