Four Canadian Faculties of Music: A Preliminary Investigation into Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and De-colonization in Post Secondary Education
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study, conducted through the lens of two Asian and African Canadian students and their lived experiences, examines four institutions, the University of British Columbia, the University of Toronto, McGill University, Western University, and the ways in which each addresses Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Decolonization (EDI-D). Accessing public documents such as syllabi, course descriptions, event calendars, published articles, strategic plans, released statements from students and faculty, and their online social media platforms, data was analyzed using qualitative document analysis (Altheide, Coyle, DeVriese, & Schneider, 2008). Overall themes were uncovered and examined (Cousins & Bourgeois, 2014; Khan & VanWynsberghe, 2008) including curricular change, methods of transparency, representation, and cultures of institutions. With the use of suggestions and guiding questions the researchers interrogate their findings and provide a way forward for anyone interested in EDI-D work. The following research question guided the research: 1) In what ways are institutions indigenizing their spaces and implementing anti-racist policies? \nWebsite: https://westernusri2021.wixsite.com/usrioutput\nReflection video :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdzsMO8_Mls

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
