Feature Story: New funding provides increased support for refugees
Bibliographic record
Abstract
President and Vice-Chancellor Dr. Vianne Timmons today announced new funding to support refugee students. The University will partner with the University of Regina Students’ Union (URSU) to provide approximately $200,000 for refugees to pursue post-secondary education. URSU currently partners with the local World University of Canada (WUSC) group to support refugees who are pursuing a University of Regina education through the WUSC Student Refugee program (SRP). The SRP Program is the only program of its kind in the world, combining refugee resettlement and post-secondary education. University of Regina students pay a levy of $4.25 in the fall and winter semesters to URSU, which provides approximately $100,000 annually to the SRP Program. For the first time ever, the University has committed to matching the student levy, allowing URSU and WUSC to double the number of students they can support in the years to come.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
