The Ezra street parties that cost the city thousands are totally fine. but they freak out over a few tents. The only reason this school is around is that it's a feeder school to a lot of local tech companies that want fresh meat to grind.
It also gets a lot of research money. As a UW grad, I can confirm that the students are the absolute lowest priority though. If you're not in a research-focused post grad program, you're seen as a chore.
People outside of KW might not be aware of how much these parties sucked for everyone. The universities did nothing about them
Has UW never met Barbara Streisand before?
UW administration hates its students.
Wow, univesities are supposed to be thought incubators, not censors
Now they mostly just incubate capitalism and behave like a business.
Not a good look UWaterloo..
Shame.
Yeah, because students... THEY'RE the ones with all the money.
Good.
Bring it on! Let them sue, let them lose, and let them be forced to pay damages to the students.
I fucking hope the students can raise the money to make this a big case that destroys the University's leadership.
