Get this–uproar at a university that actually has something to do with the university<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Science at the University of Toronto has proposed sweeping changes<\/a> to U of T’s largest faculty, which will see six humanities programs consolidated into one school.<\/p>\n

The new School of Languages and Literatures is being considered as a way to offset the faculty’s $55 million of debt. The new school, or SLLUT (School of Languages and Literatures at the University of Toronto, as to it is so affectionately referred on dissenting online forums<\/a>), will merge the existing Italian, German, East Asian Studies, Spanish and Portuguese, and Slavic languages departments, as well as the Centre for Comparative Literature, which was founded by Northrop Frye.<\/p>\n

Many students, as well as faculty at the University of Toronto, are opposed to the amalgamation, anticipating an intellectual “step backwards.”<\/p>\n

“U of T used to have a reputation for being very conservative, and it’s about to have that reputation again,” said Linda Hucheon, professor at the Centre for Comparative Literature.<\/a> “We will try to make a case for not getting rid of a major discipline within the university. “We’re not going down without a bit of a fight.”<\/p>\n

Students have set up petitions<\/a>, websites<\/a>, and a Facebook group<\/a> opposing the changes. Final approval for the new school will be sought in the fall.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
