“They (faculty) are not satisfied with leadership shown by senior administrators. (…) Our members say to us our views are not being taken into consideration.”
Diana Skoglund, a spokesperson for the university admitted that the vote did not surprise administrators.

“Non-Confidence Vote Not a Surprise to TRU University Administrators”.
What, they realized how poorly they have been managing, and were expecting the call for a vote long ago? Sounds like they took a non-confidence vote in themselves!

And why WAS the original spokesperson been replaced?
Non-confidence means no confidence in the administrative abilities of the senior administration. I think such poor administration has been demonstrated in this one article alone.
