The takeaway here should not be that students are lazy. 18 year olds aren’t the problem. The problem is that universities have failed to make a persuasive case to their “customers” that they are educational institutions rather than companies that dispense “I’m employable” stamps.

The University of Alberta has slashed funding to their affiliated daycares despite the funding only making up .0154% of its operating budget. These facilities are vital to the community and lives will be permanently changed by this callous decision. thegatewayonline.ca/2025/05/u-of-a…

Catching your garden variety plagiarism used to be the worst part of my job. Catching AI is without a doubt much, much more soul destroying.

Dr. Marianne Larsen, Professor Emeritus at Western University, urges the community to keep examining Navitas. She points to recent Glassdoor reviews where staff say the company prioritizes profit—“maximizing every cent” from students. The concerns are still real. #NoToNavitas #onpse
