Provincial government wants more of the university’s executives and administrators to live in the town of Athabasca
Athabasca University, an online institution that has been under pressure from the Alberta government to increase its physical presence in a rural community north of Edmonton, has jettisoned its president after about a year on the job.
Mr. Scott rejected that idea, saying it was an archaic strategy and would limit AU’s ability to attract talented staff from around the globe. Mr. Scott was recruited from Australia. He signed up for a five-year term, set to expire Jan. 3, 2027, according to his contract. His base salary was $305,000 per year.
