	Exit ends Concordia style clash
		A fundamental clash of operating styles appears to be at the root of the abrupt exit of Claude Lajeunesse as president of Concordia University.
		But Lajeunesse - who has a doctorate in engineering and had a 10-year run as president of Ryerson University in Toronto behind him when he tackled Concordia's top job in August 2005 - "is not a people person," this insider added.
		Lajeunesse became a lightning rod for internal criticism of what some characterized as his inaccessibility and isolation.

	Fagstein » Claude-Lajeunesse
		It was a “mutual agreement” between Lajeunesse and the Board of Governors, according to spokesperson Chris Mota, who I’m sure has had a really bad day today trying to explain to the media why the university’s internal political struggles are literally ripping its senior administration to shreds.
		The decision apparently came right from the top, which is a much-needed PR boost for president Claude Lajeunesse (though why he had to wait for student outrage to decide that wireless access is an “essential service” is beyond me).
		If the strike occurs, it’ll be the first major test of president Claude Lajeunesse, who has so far presided over a university that has been uncharacteristically out of the headlines.

		Yet even before Claude Lajeunesse signed on as president, the university had launched measures aimed at sprucing up its image - and preventing it from getting sideswiped by scene-stealing antics that have nothing to do with the quality of education it offers.
		Claude is very ambitious, but what he does not understand is that he will have to raise tuition to transform Concordia, and he will also have to raise admission standards in the arts and sciences.

		Concordia University president Claude Lajeunesse decided it was time he spoke with the student media about why he wants the tuition freeze melted.
		Lajeunesse is quick to point out that he doesn’t want to be known as “the crusader” for tuition fees, but he wants “to be seen as the crusader for excellence in university education.”
		But Lajeunesse claims that if the question of melting the freeze would be put on referendum for the entire student body to vote on, they would allow the freeze to thaw.
