Remember how I was saying the main effect of the international student caps in ON would be widespread program closures? Here's the list of programs being suspended at Fleming College, which I think is the first college to make a big announcement (apols if I have missed others).

What better tour guide than Alex Usher of Higher Education Strategy Associates to unpack the distinctly un-Canadian name-calling accompanying caps on international student applications imposed by Canada's federal government? Latest episode of #HigherEdSpotlight here👉 lnkd.in/eJ6pcqb6 🎧

I wouldn't be in Argentina if it weren't for public education. Today, the University of Buenos Aires is turning off the lights because it can't afford the power. Tomorrow, there's a massive march to defend public education. Re-sharing this 🍏✏️ buenosairesherald.com/society/i-woul…

I said back in December tht Argentina was the place to watch in global HE this year. So far, so good. buenosairesherald.com/politics/argen…

Argentina's march to defend public universities today was truly massive 👇

I have no particular bone to pick with Anil Arora's career as Chief Statistician, but anyone who utters the phrase 'Canada's secret weapon is data' is courting some heavily deserved mockery.

Canada’s government will keep economic productivity down by any means necessary.

Interesting. Communitech’s response to the budget made no reference to capital gains tax issue. communitech.ca/resource-libra…

Until I saw our polling for Globalnews.ca on politics and budget, would have bet $1 NDP would support budget. Not so sure now. Why wait for LPC to make all decisions about election timing? In change election a chance NDP could pass LPC and become official opposition.

University budgets frozen, inflation is 211%. *Tiny* conflict ahead in Argentina.

The public discourse, at least online, about what’s happening on US college campuses is polarized between those denouncing the harassment, intimidation, and vilification of Jewish students, and those denouncing the harassment, intimidation, and vilification of pro-Palestinian

This. Is. Awesome.

(I’ll refrain from naming Canadian equivalents. But we all know who you are.)
