Sir Wilfred Grenfell College on the west coast of Newfoundland, which has been waiting for independence from its parent university for years, will have to wait awhile longer, Education Minister Joan Burke said Friday.
The province had promised the college in Corner Brook, a campus of Memorial University of Newfoundland, that it would become an autonomous university by the fall of 2008
Burke said Friday that will not happen for another year.

Considering that B.C. (the other West Coast) just created five new universities, making Grenfell autonomous should not be such a large stretch.
