Fleming Dean Ousted in Haliburton

This is a story from CanoeFM’s Local Journalism Reporter, Elizabeth Oakley.

Xavier Masse, Dean of Fleming College’s Haliburton School of Art & Design has been
terminated.
Canoe FM reached out to Fleming College this morning. Asher Lurie, Director of Communications at the college, confirmed the removal of Masse from his position and provided the following statement:
Fleming College remains committed to the long-term sustainability of its campuses, including the Haliburton School of Art + Design, and the delivery of quality education. The College has made the difficult decision to eliminate the senior executive lead at the campus and invest in programming that is student-focused and community-centred. The operations of the campus will not be disrupted, and HSAD is planning for exciting spring and summer sessions.
HSAD will continue to offer unique and flexible programs taught by creative professionals in a one-of-a-kind studio environment, and the Haliburton campus remains an important part of Fleming College’s academic and community presence. 
Out of respect for employee privacy, the College will not be sharing additional personal details.
Masse had worked as the Dean of the Haliburton School of Art & Design at Fleming College since May 2023. Prior to that, he spent 13 years at George Brown College in leadership roles in creative design and curriculum development.
