The less educated you are, the more likely you'll vote for Trump/MAGA.
And this is why Republicans:
▫️defund the Dept of Education
▫️ban books
▫️call college a scam
▫️tell people to go to trade schools

Defunding the Dept of Education.
Calling colleges "a scam".
Denouncing #science.
Cutting public TV/radio.
Banning books.
Republicans advocate ignorance, denounce #education & push non-intellectual pursuits... because educated voters don't vote

Poland is expected to introduce plant-based meals in schools and nurseries after it pledged to update its draft nutrition guidance

An incredible legal victory today, won by faculty!!! Thank you American Association of University Professors and #UCLA_Faculty for standing up for #AcademicFreedom, #Education,

Oh look, the #BCNDP Government finally noticed the Post-Secondary system is collapsing. *slowclap*
Can hardly wait for that report next spring... maybe I will still have a job by then...
PS: I have a crazy idea: perhaps post-secondary should be majority-funded by government, not by exploitative international tuitions that can just *disappear*)
PPS: Domestic enrolment is not declining in any significant kind of way in the sector. From the “State of Post Secondary Education in Canada 2025” by Alex Usher:
"This decline in per-student funding is therefore not primarily a result of a significant decline in total funding; rather, it is a result of expenditures remaining more or less
constant while enrollments increased.”
WHICH IS WHAT EDUCATORS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR DECADES

Teachers play a pivotal role in helping young people live with futures shaped by local and global environmental challenges.

just registered for my continuing Spanish (200) class next semester.
The enrollment problems at VIU (and all across the sector) have made it difficult to fill these classes. The fall semester class didn't run because there were not enough students enrolled.
I really really hope it gets up to the number needed to run the course!
There always seems to be good uptake of the 100/101 classes but 200 is a struggle.

Teachers unions leverage contracts to fight climate change
As federal support and financial incentives for climate action wither, this sort of local action is becoming more difficult but also more urgent, advocates say.

Solidarity to union members and students facing cuts at North Island College. VIU and NIC have a friendly rivalry, but more importantly, we each serve as access-focused post-secondary institutions for portions of Vancouver Island north of Victoria.
The list of program suspensions is long. And unfortunately includes some skills in my field… but they are generally... broad cuts. I've included the list below.
The #BCNDP Government seems perfectly ok with post-secondary institutions in BC going through the worst cuts in at least 25 years (my career) and I would dare say - ever.
