  • Disallow Memorial University from expanding or increasing tuition until it cuts administrative staff and resolves outstanding critical maintenance

    "Require Memorial University to be fiscally responsible with the funding it receives. We will not allow MUN to balance its books on the backs of students. We will not allow MUN to expand its footprint or increase tuition until it ends administrative bloat, resolves outstanding critical maintenance, and returns its focus to students." — For All of Us, retrieved 2025-10-08
