Anti-Racism

Challenging all forms of discrimination including discrimination that occurs on campus remains central to the work of Ontario's student movement. Despite successful student organising, many students, faculty and staff continue to face individual and systemic discrimination at post-secondary institutions across Ontario. While discrimination is not confined to college and university campuses, overt and covert manifestations that occur on campus, whether in the classroom, lab, library, through institutional policies or at social events, undermine the academic missions of post-secondary institutions.

Addressing racial discrimination and continuing to work provincially to create campuses that are free from all forms of discrimination is essential to creating barrier-free education.
