Axe Falls at Malaspina University College

NANAIMO, BC, April 18 /CNW/ – Malaspina expects to offer significantly
fewer courses this fall. The Malaspina Faculty Association has learned that
layoff notices will be going out on Monday morning to 15 employees at
Malaspina. While the Faculty Association is working with management at
Malaspina University-College and is hopeful that layoffs can be rescinded, if
these cuts are not reversed, they will likely result in the end of degree
programs in Computer Science and Earth Sciences.
