About This Blog

Dare to Dissemble is my little online ranting place, where I air my thoughts about the ridiculous state of affairs at the University of Alberta--a formerly strong public institution with tons of potential being driven into the ground by inept governance and irresponsible government funding policies. Comments are welcome, but not expected. Like most blogs on the internet, this one languishes in obscurity and is read for the most part by its proprietor.

"Upping the Ante"

I really don't understand why the University goes with this sort of nearly pointless news story.  Wow, the province doles out $3M in cancer grants!  Is that a lot?  How does it compare to cancer research funding elsewhere?  (A guess:  probably very much on the low side.)  And how exactly is it "upping the ante"?  Is it more than in previous years?  The story does not tell us.
