THREE MORE YEARS.
STUDY AT UNIVERSITY. REFUGEE DOCTOR'S POSITION. (By Telegraph.—Press 'Association.) CHRISTCHURCH, Friday. Refuge© doctors, whatever their qualifications, who seek the right of practice in New Zealand, must first study for another three years at the Otago Medical School, according to a ruling by the New Zealand Medical Council. . Their position has been made public this week. At a meeting of tlie Senate of the University of New Zealand, three doctors applied for admission ad eundem to New Zealand degrees—one request was later modified to admission as a student —and their claims were discussed at a long sitting of the Senate in committee. One claim from Berlin was rejected, and it was decided that the other two from Bologna and Vienna were not to be considered until the applicants were resident in New Zealand. The discussion was all in committee, and not until the next day, when the committee findings became part of the minutes, which were confirmed, could any reference to it be published.
