The Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology is winding down operations over the course of the next year as a result of declining enrolment. The small Winnipeg post-secondary institution announced Wednesday it will be closing down after a federal cap on international students led to a steep decline in enrolment. "The Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology has seen international enrolment drop by more than 55 per cent, making its current financial model unsustainable," said a memo on MITT's website.

Sometimes I remember telling one of my fav profs I was dropping out of Computer Science and he was like "No! You're one of my best students!"

Friends, I scraped a 51 in his class. He pity passed me because I drew a cartoon of myself weeping into a toolbox of logic symbols I couldn't understand. I showed up to every class and went to his office to ask for help and still got a whopping 2% on a project I spent 15 hours on because, as it turned out, I AM REALLY BAD AT COMPSCI. 😭😭😭

I stared at him blankly for a solid 30 seconds after that comment before wheezing out "that... that might be a problem for you"

a word on academic accommodations: these are not just for illness. Things like testing anxiety or stress that prevents you from sleeping are actual problems that impact your academic performance, and that makes them grounds for accommodations. Talk to your accessibility services department, see what documentation is required, and if you’re able to, speak to your doctor (most campuses have a school clinic even though booking is a nightmare) and ask your doctor about documentation.

Different schools may have different levels of accessibility and accommodations offices (and some don’t have one at all, but that’s for a separate post). But if your school has one, and you’re dealing with something that impacts your ability to work in a healthy and manageable way, you have grounds to talk to them. This post is for anyone who feels afraid of ‘faking’ disability in order to access something - trust me, you’re not. Go get the accommodation. You’re not at uni to prove that you’re able to function under bad conditions - you’re there to learn. Let yourself have the things you need to learn.

The #denial of #education #violates equal #rights and will have a #devastating #impact on the country’s #future.

I urge the Taliban to ensure #equal #access to education for #all.

Hi everyone!

I’m in need of some help, I have a project worth 55% of my grade and it involves having people take the survey my group made. 

I’m currently in a marketing research class.

It was made for Canadian students (due to one question) but if anyone is willing to take it that would be extremely helpful!

Thank you!
