Focus on Governance – Introduction

Why is academic governance important? What is at stake if the crisis in governance isn’t fixed? What can I do to help?

Watch our ongoing video series for answers the these questions and more. Learn about the crisis in academic governance at our institution and across Canada. Learn how our legally mandated governance systems operate so that we, as faculty members, can have your voice heard. As the lifeblood of our university, faculty members have a duty to ensure that our university is governed in an open, lawful and democratic manner.

In our first video, TRU Faculty Association Vice President, Star Mahara, introduces the concept of academic governance and outlines what is at stake in the current crisis. Questions? Contact Star Mahara by email.
