More than 20,000 students at McGill and Concordia universities are set to strike for a week on Monday to protest the Quebec government's tuition hikes for out-of-province and international students.
Then the university should get more money. But in this case, they’re getting less. The government is mandating that they increase tuition so that the extra money can be funneled to other schools.
I’ve got a family member who’s a level 2 Canada research chair and professor. During COVID I was asking about the move to virtual learning and how they were set up for it, they were telling me that a much larger portion of her grant money who’s going to technology then before and it had started a few years earlier.
Now this prof does some crazy stuff with brain scanning and virtual reality which takes some horsepower and probably needs more upgrades than your typical university computer lab. But the point remains their budgets were being strained 5 plus years ago because of the technology that’s been incorporated into teaching.
I’m inclined to believe that the relative costs of operating a university theatre have risen rather than dropped since I graduated 20 years ago.

You might be on the wrong website, buddy.
Yeaaah, no. You are overblowing the costs. And it has absolutely decreased the cost of running a university.
