Dear OCADFA,

On Monday December 7^th, OCADFA will be presenting  OCAD U’s 2020/21 Alternative Budget to the Board of Governors. The meeting runs from 4:30pm to 7:30pm.  If you can attend this meeting, please email chuang@ocadu.ca  for the zoom link.  I encourage everyone to attend this meeting. 

OCADFA’s alternative budget re-invests in OCAD University’s core mission: transformative education through art & design.  In recent years OCAD U has adopted an austerity agenda that’s compromised the student learning experience, academic integrity and working conditions for faculty and staff.  We have also produced an Operations Budget primer to walk you through some key concerns we have with the current 2020/21 Operations Budget . out to show your support. 

OCAD United, a cross-campus coalition comprised of students, staff and faculty have released a public letter in support of the Alternative Budget, which we will present to the Board of Governors. Please join us and sign this letter!

In sol,

Min Sook
