<p>hah, do you really think ppl will be more objective outside of this forum? I’ve never seen so much McGill bashing anywhere else! I’ve heard of McGill being underfunded several years ago, but apparently they’ve sorted out the situation in the past few years. But in general, for a university of McGill’s stature, it probably still is underfunded especially compared to universities in the states. But to be objective, this is not only a McGill or a Quebec issue, because the last article I’ve read about “chronic underfunding” was about Ontario universities:</p>

<p>btw, I don’t see how McGill is slipping down if it rose to #1 this year in Macleans, was named Research University of the Year by Infosource (McGill has the highest per faculty research funding in the country), and was the top ranked Canadian university in the Times of London World Ranking.</p>
