Faculty at TRU pass motion of non-confidence against leadership

Thompson Rivers University’s faculty association has reportedly passed a motion of non-confidence against the institution’s leadership following misconduct complaints against two senior administrators. Over 80% of those who voted indicated that they had lost confidence in TRU’s president. Faculty association president Tara Lyster said that a variety of concerns are being voiced, including concerns over the length of the investigation and the lack of action to address faculty trauma over not feeling that their concerns are being heard. “All of this has led to increased anxiety among faculty, which in turn leads to a lack of confidence and trust in the president of TRU,” said Lyster.
