“How can eliminating a service that is necessary for injured athletes, not affect service to students?” Oost said. “I don’t know how Laurentian expects to continue recruiting top athletes when the service won’t be there for them. Are parents going to send promising, young athletes to a school where injuries will not get immediate treatment, and the student will be told to either go to Emergency, or try to get into a local clinic?”
She said it is also a service that university offers to the community.
“Paying patients from the community are going to show up for their appointments only to find the door locked and a sign indicating that the service has been discontinued,” Oost said. "
