““The reason that we want to help spread the word is two-fold,” said Amy Miller.
“People are interested in coming here to work in health care. Obviously, we’re so grateful to be here. But I want the community here to know that it’s working and to continue with that momentum. And I want to let people in the States know that this is an option, that it’s a real option.”

While the financial picture seems to be stabilizing at VIU in Nanaimo, it has been a very rough past 2 years. The worst in my 25 years. I have seen so many colleagues forced into retirement and others, sessionals just not be around.
In total just on the Faculty, IT, Librarian and Advisory forces alone, my union has lost close to 100 members.
The really really frustrating thing is faculty unions and others have warned administration and government for YEARS... Decades... that the over reliance on massive international student fees and enrolments was a huge risk.
The chicken is now officially home and roosting and it sucks. We are deeply hurting the ability of our young people to be successful. 😢
(Trades and Staff are in different Unions - BCGEU and CUPE respectively - from VIUFA faculty at VIU. They have suffered greatly too. BCGEU possibly a little less as a percentage, but CUPE, definitely more. )
