This week, Sam and Geneva take a look at "What Cha' Gonna Do for Me," the third studio album from the Queen of Funk Chaka Khan. Released in 1981, this album was her first smash hit and paved the way for her later triumphs as a solo artist.
A one and a half million dollar survey detailing the usefulness of courses when applying for work, has been blocked by universities. Critics have pointed out the data could potentially be skewed and is therefore unreliable, however when Tuwhenuaroa spoke to Brendan Kelly, Deputy Chief Executive of Information at the Tertiary Education Commision, he reassured him the data was solid. Brendan was reluctant to speculate as to why the survey had been blocked, however he did give some insight as to the process of making the survey as reliable and useful as possible. Tu started off by asking him why the survey was commissioned to begin with.
