The Centre for Studies in Social Justice Presents:
Turning First Rate Universities into Second Rate Companies -- the Future of Post-Secondary Education in Canada?
James Turk, Executive Director, Canadian Association of University Teachers
Commercial and corporate values and practices are transforming our universities in subtle and profound ways. The very integrity of our institutions and their mission to advance and disseminate knowledge and educate students is at risk. The talk will explore the changes that are taking place, the reasons for the changes and what academic staff and students can do to reclaim and protect the role of our universities in serving the public interest.
Refreshments will be provided.
