As universities and colleges cut academic programs, close programs, and slash 13,000+ jobs, Budget 2025 halves international student enrolment without boosting core funding.

It is great to see the work of colleagues in Canada and Africa expanding with this CFP.

"The once-reliable routes for circulating research, spotting emerging trends, and connecting across disciplines are slowing down. Without shared spaces, visibility risks becoming uneven, with early-career and underrepresented scholars most likely to lose out."

This is happy me last Saturday before watching "I'm still here" (Ainda Estou Aqui) and leaving in tears. This movie comes as a reminder that what we see in the the news about many nations (including mine) taking a very dark road towards autoritarianism ends bad. Ditadura nunca mais! 👊

We are hosting the CAC annual conference next May. Send your abstract until Jan 15. Details below!

Our next New Directions in Classics talk is coming up this Friday, Nov. 22 at 4PM at the U of Winnipeg. It's Dr. Paul Monaghan with "The Complete Eradication of the Live Actor from the Tragic Stage."

Hiring at UWinnipeg has been frozen amid a $5 million budget shortfall. New restrictions on international students are mostly to blame but govts encouraged this approach to balancing budgets. #Manitoba needs to fill this gap and get back to funding universities properly., www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
