Our Gate count was lower-this was due to COVID and the flooding.

Number of participants in group presentations: 324 in face-to-face orientations, 247 in tours, plus 1222 students had access in the 42 online courses. It is not possible to determine how many watched the orientations nor how many students were unique individuals.

Thompson Rivers University Library:

FTE Faculty--For the first time, this number includes Open Learning Faculty Members, which we have always been supporting but have not previously been included.
