From Afternoons, 1:35 pm on 30 November 2022

Last week, Suraya Goss graduated from Massey University with a BA in mātauranga Māori or Māori knowledge.

Across the three-year degree she made the choice to submit every assignment and complete each exam in te reo.

Massey University has called it an historic milestone. 

Suraya talks to Jesse about why she made the decision and what's next.
