I commend and thank the people who have initiated this petition. Creative writing needs to be encouraged, with expansive perspectives, not cut back and further subjugated to the already nearly mono-chromatic business/vocational/rationalist orientation of post-secondary education. We hear a lot about diversity but in practice, there is increasingly a one-size-fits-all model imposed. It is not good for the society or for individuals; people flourish and brains function best when all faculties are able to be developed in balance.
