The federal government’s cap on international student enrolments is reducing not only revenue, but also cultural diversity at Canadian universities, argues University of Saskatchewan Deputy Provost Patti McDougall. “Students who come to us from countries around the world bring with them different lived experiences, different cultural practices, different world views and all of those things bring a richness to our classrooms, laboratories, (and) student focused activities,” said McDougall. She warned that the decline in international students is narrowing the student experience and undermining universities’ ability to function as “world class universities.”
