Today, OUSA presented at a government committee meeting on Bill 166, which seeks to increase cost transparency & formalize policies on mental health & racism. OUSA’s recommendations on the Bill aim to create safer campuses & improve how university policies are developed.
Thank you Minister @JillDunlop1 for your opening remarks at PiHED! We are happy you joined & are grateful for your continued engagement with us. PiHED was a wonderful celebration with our partners & impactful educators. More info & photos from the evening will be available soon!

Ontario’s students & universities have come together to urgently call for investment in universities in Budget 2024. Without more investment, universities & the student services they provide are at risk. Read an open letter from @OUSAhome & COU: ontariosuniversities.ca/news/joint-ope… #ONpoli
Ontario’s post-secondary sector is to receive a 1.3 billion funding package- while this is a step forward in the right direction, students are concerned about the long-term financial sustainability and the gross funding deficits in the #ONPSE sector.
🚨Opportunities for student internships and authorship 🚨 If you know a #onpse undergrad, encourage them to come work with us for the summer AND to write about town and town affairs in their city! Lots of fun and learning, and a chance to work with my really cool team 😎

OUSA's 2024 pre-budget submission underscores the importance of higher investments in #ONpse and calls for improvements to OSAP repayment structures. Read our submission here: ousa.ca/ousa_budget_su…
OUSA is joining @OntUniv in urging @ONgov for increased #ONpse funding. The quality of students' education and their campus services are at risk. The time is now - we need a commitment from the province for greater investments. Read our joint statement:bit.ly/48T7xrd
The post-secondary sector is struggling with current funding levels and the budget must urgently address this. We need more investments into #ONpse so that students can have the high quality services and education they deserve.

This year marks the 33rd National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, wherein we mourn the loss of 14 women who were murdered in an act of misogyny and anti-feminist hate at L'École Polytechnique de Montréal.
This publication couldn’t be more timely in #ONpse. As the Blue Ribbon Panel emphasizes, the sector is under serious financial precarity. This issue resonates with student associations nationwide & we hope this call to action results in increased government investment to PSE.

OUSA’s response to the release of the Blue Ribbon Panel’s report can be found here: ousa.ca/responds_blue_…
We had such a great day at @HEQCO #AccessReboot conference! Having important dialogues and knowledge exchange is crucial in this sector.
Thank you @CMHInnovation for having us at the 2023 conference! Our Research & Policy Analysts & our Steering Committee member and VP Education @MSU_McMaster, Abby Samuels facilitated a stimulating conversation about creating safe spaces for marginalized students with OUSS data.
Thank you @OntUniv for inviting us to Queen’s Park to learn about the innovations and promising research of students across the province! We’re excited to see how experiential learning opportunities like these will lead to successful outcomes for Ontario’s graduates.
The province has an opportunity to enable transformation & drive excellence in #ONpse. Capacity to strengthen all types of student services & programs would be achieved with more government investment in the sector, & along with @OntUniv, we’re hopeful to see change in this area!
I always mention to people how much I love this publication and that still rings true this year, especially on a salient topic for so many in #ONpse. So excited to see this out and incredibly happy for my team @OUSAhome who worked so hard on this over the summer 🤗
Had a great conversation with Minister Dunlop today, and we look forward to continuing our work together through collaboration and consultation!
