The future of Memorial’s Harlow campus remains in doubt as the province’s education minister expects the university to begin “shrinking its footprint” as it confronts a nearly $20 million deficit.

Premier Tony Wakeham and Minister Paul Dinn met with the President of MUN last week, where government confirmed its commitment to a tuition freeze this year.

However, when it comes to the future of Memorial’s Harlow campus in the U.K., Dinn indicated that the university needs to “consider everything” as it deliberates potential cuts.

‘We got to realize that we deal with thousands of students here in the province and you have to maintain that quality of education.”

“So looking at (Harlow) and looking at the fiscal constraints, you have to look at everything, as a possible cut or a possible reduction. So I think the university is being responsible in moving ahead on the whole fiscal constraints piece.”
