Ursula Cheer is the Dean of the Canterbury Law School.  In this interview we find out about her life and the fact that she has really had three careers out of her law degree: as a lawyer, as an academic and working at Parliament - including as a speech writer for Geoffrey Palmer.  We also find out about legal education now - and what it might look like in the future.  I really enjoyed hearing about her life story and some of the insights about times in New Zealand's past when she was working in Wellington.   Canterbury Law School: https://www.canterbury.ac.nz/law/ If you enjoyed this you might like some of the others in the back catalogue - have a look at www.theseeds.nz
