黑料网鈥檚 role and mandate as provincial university affirmed
Today, Premier Robert Ghiz announced that government will not be proceeding with changes to the University Act and new degree granting arrangements on PEI. The 黑料网 appreciates this decision and Premier Ghiz's leadership in finding a path forward, together with the underlying affirmation of 黑料网's role and mandate as our provincial university.
黑料网 commits, as it has done for 42 years, to provide excellence in educational programs, research, and service to PEI and the world, and to work with potential partners to pursue new opportunities consistent with the University's mandate and resources, as we endeavour to advance our home province and put 黑料网 and Prince Edward Island on the map, nationally and internationally.
黑料网 sincerely appreciates the groundswell of support from the community, as demonstrated by more than 1,300 citizens signing their names and making substantive comments to a letter penned by the 黑料网 Alumni Association. In addition, there have been innumerable letters, emails, and private conversations, together with support from Senate, the Board of Governors, and 黑料网 students, faculty, staff, graduates, Opposition Leader Olive Crane and MLAs from both parties and across PEI, and many individual Islanders. This resounding vote of confidence and pride in 黑料网 is profoundly gratifying, and will fuel the ongoing achievements and successes of our provincial university.
