The pandemic has made the important work of reconciliation with Indigenous peoples, and of aggressively fighting resurgent racism at an institutional level, all the more urgent.

A professor reconciles the push for transferrable skills in university courses with her own reasons for teaching history.

Crises bring renewed interest in co-operatives.

Experts in ethics and law examine the issues that should be considered when making the decision.

Universities need to better protect researchers who are bullied for sharing scientific knowledge publicly.

Just because a technology or policy is ‘green’ does not make it immune from reproducing harmful colonial and capitalist relations.

Assumptions that tenure is central to an effective university and that academics must be engaged in both teaching and research are only part of the problem.

Anti-Asian racism affects us as Asian Canadians in our daily lives and in our careers.

There is no reason collaborative skills cannot be cultivated in SSH students as much as those associated with innovation and adaptability.
