More joint activity between colleges and universities
The Record (Kitchener-Waterloo area paper) recently highlighted some of the newest cooperation going on between Ontario community colleges and universities. A meeting of school presidents was held a couple of weeks ago.
Tibbits (Conestoga College president) said presidents of Wilfrid Laurier University, University of Guelph, University of Windsor and McMaster University plan to attend the meeting; along with presidents of Niagara College, Mohawk College, Fanshawe College, Lambton College, Conestoga College and possibly St. Clair College.
Cooperation is a good thing. More options is a good thing. Seamless transitions between institutions is a good thing.
The difficulty Ontario homeschoolers have gaining access to Ontario colleges (as opposed to universities) is a bad thing. Let’s hope that the college application process for homeschoolers tends towards the university model, and not the other way around.
