Campus 2020
Posted by: Neal Yonson | April 24, 2007 | 4 Comments
The Campus 2020 report was released today. Click here to see the site. Warning – it’s 114 pages long. You’ll recall this is the province’s exercise in “re-thinking” the post-secondary education system and providing a vision for the future.
It’s long. I’d read it but it’s hockey night and I’m packing up and leaving my humble abode. *sniff* If I have time I’ll update tomorrow.

“By 2020, the rate of Aboriginal post-secondary participation and attainment will
equal general population rates, and we will have reduced by 50 per cent the
proportion of BC adults not achieving high school equivalency by age 30.”
I thought this was one of the most ambitious goals of the document.
I think it would be interesting to compare the AMS’s Campus 2020 submission with the final report.
I’m very pleased with it. Also, I’m very pleased with myself for reading all 114 pages. But, it sets some ambitious goals, and if the government implements them on their ambitious timetable, it will be a huge boon for PSE in BC.
I’m impressed so far, but I’ve only scanned it and read the first few sections.
