Proctor policy tests patience

In an effort to cut costs, Carleton has reduced the number of proctors hired to supervise exams, replacing them with instructors and teaching assistants, a move that has been opposed by unions representing TAs and undergraduate students.

Vladimir de Baghy, co-president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 4600, said he is concerned about the impact the new policy could have for teaching assistants and contract instructors.
