Budget(s)

2008 April 30
by Miriam Jones

Acting VP-Academic Jane Fritz sent a memo to the UNB Fredericton campus on April 23 about the 2008-2009 budget. Today, we on the UNB Saint John campus received a parallel memo from Dr. Kathryn Hamer which concludes on a sober note:

The Saint John campus has a long tradition of accomplishing much with few resources. We are at a critical juncture, and much will depend on our commitment to academic quality while adapting quickly to a constantly changing external environment that, despite the uncertainties associated with change, can provide opportunities and support positive evolution.

    This prose from the VP reads like an absolute apolgy for everything that happened to UNBSJ in the past short term — not to mention what may haqppen from the percieve threats in the present and near future: “despite the uncertainties associated with change.” UNBSJ “can provide opportunities and support positive evolution.”

    Who would have thought?

    Now, I must read the President’s musings.

    But what do I know?
