Workshop: “Student-to-faculty ratios: More than just bums in seats”
Similar to a cheap airline, it sometimes seems like the university administration does not care about the quality of the ride or the destination, only the number of seats sold. This workshop invites students and faculty to participate in this interactive, bilingual workshop about the problems with rising student-to-faculty
ratios. Event sponsored by GSAED, CUPE 2626 and APUO.
Where: DMS 12110
When: Monday, February 24th, 4:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m.
