Various issues concerning Concordia University are often reported on by news outlets. Here is the most recent coverage pertaining to the institution:
- Le Devoir, reporting last Friday on the current deficits at different Quebec universities, states that Concordia's deficit for the current year, forecast at $8.2-million, remains unchanged.
- A report in les affaires on recent philanthropic endeavours in Montreal includes the recent $50-thousand donation by Fondation Medavie, an organization devoted to promoting health and healthy living, to Concordia's PERFORM Centre for a prevention program against Type 2 Diabetes. The article also mentions the Azrieli Foundation's $5-million investment in the Youth Fusion stay-in-school program, which was initiated as a pilot project at Concordia in 2008. The Youth Fusion gift was announced at a news conference earlier this month at the John Molson School of Business.
