Examining contemporary issues in employment, labour relations and workplace injury in Alberta.
Tim Loreman, CUE President and Mansion Enthusiast Concordia University of Edmonton (CUE) has been struggling since its strike almost 18 months ago. As I wrote last month , CUE has engaged in behaviours that include layoffs and a large number of disciplinary investigations. Meanwhile, enrollments are tanking, governance procedures are being hollowed out, and programs are being identified as not meeting quality standards.
Two weeks ago, CBC ran a story that the CUE faculty had voted no confidence in President Tim Loreman. This was the second non-confidence vote in Loreman since the strike. The Board of Governors doesn’t seem interested in engaging in any dialog over these concerns.
