RE: FREE TUITION
The Ontarion’s article about free tuition caught my eye. I appreciated the explanations in how the government funding has changed, but was disappointed not to see a mention of the role that generous alumni donors play!
Scholarships and bursaries are significantly funded by private donations, not to mention the numerous things that U of G grads support that make the everyday experiences here better.
On the heels of National Philanthropy Day, when we celebrated donors and volunteers, I hope U of G students realize they are indeed the beneficiaries of incredible alumni generosity.
