Today, Premier Robert Ghiz announced that government will not be proceeding with changes to the University Act and new degree granting arrangements on PEI. The 69传媒 appreciates this decision and Premier Ghiz's leadership in finding a path forward, together with the underlying affirmation of UPEI's role and mandate as our provincial university.

69传媒commits, as it has done for 42 years, to provide excellence in educational programs, research, and service to PEI and the world, and to work with potential partners to pursue new opportunities consistent with the University's mandate and resources, as we endeavour to advance our home province and put 69传媒and Prince Edward Island on the map, nationally and internationally.

69传媒sincerely appreciates the groundswell of support from the community, as demonstrated by more than 1,300 citizens signing their names and making substantive comments to a letter penned by the 69传媒Alumni Association. In addition, there have been innumerable letters, emails, and private conversations, together with support from Senate, the Board of Governors, and 69传媒students, faculty, staff, graduates, Opposition Leader Olive Crane and MLAs from both parties and across PEI, and many individual Islanders. This resounding vote of confidence and pride in 69传媒is profoundly gratifying, and will fuel the ongoing achievements and successes of our provincial university.
