President Arthur Coren says the school will reach out to stakeholders and donors to find a way to resume courses and programs.
Amid news that Quest University is indefinitely pausing its academic programming, the president of the school insists that the school is not closing.
“Everybody, from the night janitor to the president are going to receive some sort of a notice, because the same issues that preclude us from continuing academic operations mean that, obviously, we're not going to be able to sustain a workforce of that size,” Coren said. Coren commended the resilience of staff and students when the announcement was made, and he emphasized how grateful he was with the support Squamish has shown the school.
“We have held the belief that Quest is an incredibly unique and special organization for more than 20 years, and it is difficult and disappointing to learn of this next step in the journey. We remain hopeful, and at the same time, will be discussing the District’s interests in this next chapter.”
