Ontario’s affiliated universities are at risk of disappearing without more equitable postsecondary funding, argues the Huron University Faculty Association President Thomas Peace. In response to the Government of Ontario’s recent $750M investment into STEM, Peace calls for broader provincial support for affiliated and liberal arts institutions like Huron University, which face growing vulnerability under a funding model that favours job-ready programming. He urges the province to act on expert recommendations—such as those from the ON Ministry’s blue ribbon panel, the Council of Ontario Universities, and the Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations —to stabilize the sector.
