All-candidates’ meeting to focus on post-secondary education

A coalition of UWindsor students is hosting a forum for candidates in the provincial riding of Windsor West, Wednesday, September 28, at noon in the CAW Student Centre.

The candidates will be asked to address issues related to post-secondary education.

Vajo Stajic, a fourth-year labour studies student, says the October 6 election offers a key opportunity to pressure politicians and demand change.

“Education has become a central issue to several parties’ platforms,” he says. “In Ontario, we’re paying the highest tuition fees in Canada. Enough is enough.”

The coalition includes the University of Windsor Student’s Alliance, the Organization of Part-time University Students, the Graduate Student Society, the Student Movement Newspaper, the Ontario Public Interest Research Group – Windsor, and the Canadian Federation of Students – Ontario.
