Vari Hall Winter Scene

President and Vice-Chancellor Rhonda L. Lenton and York University’s senior leadership team hosted a consultation on the 2021-22 University budget at a virtual town hall held Feb. 8.

The town hall presented an overview of the University’s current financial framework and discussed the opportunities and challenges York faces in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and planning for the next academic year. Members of the community were invited to ask questions – in pre-submitted and live formats – on budget priorities and other concerns.

Joining Lenton were Provost & Vice-President Academic Lisa Philipps, Vice-President Finance & Administration Carol McAulay, Vice-President Advancement Jeff O’Hagan, Vice-President Research & Innovation Amir Asif and Vice-Provost Students Lucy Fromowitz.
