Discovery: Atlantic Education & the Law – Issue 10

We are pleased to present the tenth issue of Discovery, our very own legal publication targeted to educational institutions in Atlantic Canada.

As we settle into a summer having rounded out the end of another academic year, the pandemic continues to occupy the attention of academic institutions around the Atlantic region. However, as students, faculty and administrators look forward to the fall semester, a range of other topics are on the horizon.

In our tenth issue of Discovery Magazine, Stewart McKelvey lawyers provide insight into a variety of timely issues including: COVID-19 misinformation, universities and access to information requests, trends in tenure and promotions at universities, and public sector pension plans.
