SUMMARY:Podcast release\, episode 4 — "The Program That Was Doing Too Well"
DESCRIPTION:Why would a successful university program be recommended for closure? Episode 4 of this five-part series in the podcast Buddhist Studies Footnotes reconstructs the administrative history behind the suspension of BPMH enrolment\, revealing a striking contrast between a glowing external review\, growing student demand\, and a subsequent recommendation to discontinue the program. Through archival recordings\, committee documents\, and emotional testimony from students and faculty\, the episode examines questions of governance\, precarity\, and institutional responsibility. It argues that the controversy surrounding BPMH was not simply about one interdisciplinary program\, but about how universities value innovation\, support faculty\, and respond when educational success no longer fits existing administrative structures.

SUMMARY:Brochure release: "The Cost of Adjunctification"
DESCRIPTION:This brochure examines the growing reliance on contingent academic labour within higher education and argues that adjunctification represents a fundamental contradiction between universities’ commitments to equity and their employment practices. Using the BPMH program as a case study\, it demonstrates how decades of innovative teaching\, mentorship\, and community-building by contingent faculty remain institutionally undervalued. It calls for a renewed commitment to dignified academic labour as an essential foundation for educational excellence. \nPick up one of these limited-edition brochures\, created by the BPMH Task Force\, at Room 320 in the Jackman Humanities Building.
