As it has turned out, former SIT CEO Penny Simmonds has gone on to light a metaphoric match that will largely send the centralised polytechnic - Te Pūkenga - up in smoke.
SIT had $45,000,000 of student tagged funds which begs the question.
Was SIT predominantly fair to the students or were they overcharging the government and offering only the most economical coarses to accumulate funds?
Now Penny the former lead of SIT sits on the other side of the counter. Big part of the minister’s role will be distributing rather than acquiring funds.

I support her efforts. Te Pukenga, as a centralised mega Polytech should not have eventuated. Not to the demise of a successful community of hard work and effort that helped S.I.T steamroll to the top of the tertiary education ladder. I trust Penny to ensure Southland is looked after.
This will be interesting.
