Hey John! Always great to hear from our alumn.

We did talk to Sean (the writer of that Globe and Mail piece) about it, and we were aware he was going to mention some of our stats in his reporting. In the online version of the article he does link to the pdf.

Yeah, I think brain drain to the US is a phenomenon amongst graduates that’s quite material and under-discussed at a national level. Hopefully presenting this data will encourage some conversation.

Mental health is something students and the department have started to take pretty seriously. I think it’s beginning to get the attention it deserves, and things are moving in the right direction around awareness and support, although there’s still lots of room to improve.

I’m glad you liked the class profile! Would love to have it in more SYDE/Sys Des alumni’s hands and hear what they think about it!
