LETTER: Fund the Freedom to Learn | The Muse MUN professor Josh Lepawsky makes the case for funding Memorial University ahead of Budget 2026

What do we stand to lose if Memorial continues to be starved of basic funding? Students' freedom to learn and thrive through a diverse set of pathways to life-changing and world-changing knowledge.

These are the kinds of stories we keep hearing.
A course that changed someone’s life.
A reason someone stayed in Newfoundland and Labrador.
A degree that helped build a career, a business, a future.
A hope that the next generation gets the same chance. 1/2

#WeAreMUN

Across Memorial, we are seeing the real impacts of ongoing funding cuts. Programs are changing. Jobs are being lost. Teaching and learning conditions are under pressure.

The impacts are not abstract. They affect our classrooms, our colleagues, and our students.1/3
