TRU expected to make decision on future of visual arts program   

Thompson Rivers University’s board of governors is expected to decide on the future of its visual arts programming in an upcoming meeting. Business in Vancouver and Castanet have published summaries of the developments since the university first announced in April that it intended to phase out the BFA program, including shifts in the institution’s decision-making and the faculty association’s open push back of the program cancellation. BIV reports that the university senate is expected to provide advice to the board of governors about the proposed elimination of “four named programs.”
