I don't know who needs to hear this but the University of Alberta is killing the music program at Augustana in Camrose.
They planned to announce this in May, but the Casavant organ bullshit in Convocation Hall put too much heat on the university, so they just quietly stopped accepting admissions instead.
This is a huge blow to music education in Alberta, and no other university offers a similar program.

@chad@mstdn.ca Will be to align with the provinces new funding model. No money in music, so no funding. :(
