The Executive Committee of the St. Francis Xavier University Association of University Teachers supports the rights of students to free expression and peaceful assembly on university and college campuses. Post-secondary institutions must be places where open debate and dialogue are fostered, and thus we call on the administrations of Dalhousie University, Mount Saint Vincent University, Saint Mary’s University, and the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design to respect the right of peaceful protest by students.
