AUCC brochure provides overview of KIP projects

Yesterday the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada released a brochure offering a snapshot of transformations taking place at universities across the country, as 183 capital projects are nearing completion. In 2009, the federal government launched the $2-billion Knowledge Infrastructure Program, with matching funds from provincial and territorial governments and other partners allowing post-secondary institutions to tackle over $5 billion in deferred maintenance. AUCC president Paul Davidson says the updated and new facilities "will create a rich learning environment -- an environment that will attract the best and brightest professors and students from Canada and around the world."
