1. TUES, MARCH 1: MARCH FOR PUBLIC EDUCATION. Students in New Brunswick pay the
second highest tuition fees on average in the country, and our student debt
problem is out of control. In the Maritimes, the average undergraduate leaves
school $37,000 in debt, often at a very young age. As the government prepares
to release details of this year’s budget, students and their families are
calling on our elected representatives to defend publ...ic education by
providing more funding to our institutions. On March 1st, students will take to
the streets to reject these cuts and demand a better deal for New Brunswick. On
the day of the march, STU students will rally in the quad (in front of George
Martin Hall) at 1 pm, on Tuesday, March 1 and UNB students will rally in the
quad (outside of the SUB). STU students will march down the hill at 1:25 to
pick up UNB students, and we will continue down to the legislature. More info:
