How appropriate when SFU forced the Contemporary Arts (Theatre, music, visual arts) people off campus in Burnaby to the 700 suite wedge of DTES destruction called Woodwards.
Despite the initial subsidies and donations, they are behind the eight-ball as the industrialists are pulling out (Audain, Goldcorp, etc.) and students find it difficult when other courses are back on the hill.
Is SFU having to put 13 million into downtown’s 4 campuses with little return?
Is the Cities Program self-sustaining at all or a retreat for ex-city remittance men and women?
