It’s depressing how little the public would care if they even knew abt the mass slashing of departments & programmes, & mass firing/“voluntary” exodus of staff, at post-92s. The line I keep hearing is how useless sociology degrees are—which is just an extraordinary response. 1/

Canadian higher education is facing a serious funding crisis. One that could’ve been avoided. But now Canadians will pay for bad political decisions as there will be fewer seats and programs (particularly in STEM fields). This only harms Canada’s future cbc.ca/news/canada/po…

Universities are deleting entire degree programs and laying off 100’s of academic staff as a result of chronic underfunding. Crickets from the government.
Michelle Arrow@MichelleArrow1

Labor has dodged the larger policy question of how tertiary education should be funded, and the response to this proposed debt cut (‘my taxes are paying these debts’) shows how urgently we need to discuss why tertiary education is important, and why it should be funded properly.

Students, communities, & employers deserve a stable & sustainable #onPSE system, but under this gov't, half of Ont universities & colleges are reporting deficits. Chronic underfunding has brought the sector to the brink, & the consequences are cuts to programs & student services.

“Universities are at a breaking point” with 10 of Ontario’s publicly assisted unis facing budget deficits of $175 million, expected to rise to $273M in 2024-25. You can’t cut your way out of structural underfunding.  Ford doesn't get it. #onpoli @OntUniv @PeggySattlerNDP
