Noah, I just read a very interesting article in the Chronicle of Higher Education about Canada’s Charter of Rights and Responsibilities being applied to college student discipline. Fascinating stuff.
I teach a course on Legal Issues in a graduate program on higher education administration in the United States and am trying to include a more global perspective in all of my classes. This issue is very timely.
I have ordered your recent book on education law and will post the URL for your blog to my course web site. I look forward to sharing your views and Canadian law with my students.
Thanks so much for the work you do.
Hello Noah,
I had a look at your law blog – very well done! I’m also
interested in commercial law and have studied accident and
insurance issues as well as partnerships.
Best of luck,
Alex
Hi,
I would like to know if there is a way we can complaint against the university for raising the fees by 250% without proper notice?
