Description: Over the past few months, the Maple League Better Together series has been exploring the theme of our current times as a time of rupture, of disruption, in light of our consortium’s guiding principles of collaboration and people-centred liberal education. Erin Austen (StFX), Eva Curry (Acadia), Jessica Riddell (Bishop’s University) and Toni Roberts (Mount Allison) come together to share their views on the power of collaboration and a liberal education in facing times of rupture. Hosted by Juan Carlos López, Director of Teaching and Learning at the Maple League of Universities, these four academic leaders will reflect on the social mission and public value of our postsecondary institutions to forge a better future.
