Drop in Ontario Grants Leads to Budget Cuts at Ryerson - Mohamed Omar, The EyeOpener
Ryerson’s budget for the 2013-2014 academic year will work with a one per cent reduction in grants, while the provincial government has yet to inform universities of its tuition increase policy. At a town hall Thursday, held at the Ted Rogers School of Management, students, staff and faculty were presented with the university’s budget-planning considerations and concerns. “We know that the government has said to all the universities and colleges in Ontario that your grants are going to be reduced by one per cent across the board and we know that for 2014-15 it will be a further one per cent,” President Sheldon Levy said. “We are planning with knowledge that we have.”
