  • A Sense of Belonging: Report on Social Inclusion at Mohawk College, Which Is the Result of the Task Force and Forum on Diversity That I Introduced Early Last Winter
    A SENSE OF BELONGING Report on Social Inclusion at Mohawk College OFFICE OF THE VICE PRESIDENT, | STUDENT SERVICES | Dear Colleagues: I am pleased to present A Sense of Belonging: Report on Social Inclusion at Mohawk College, which is the result of the Task Force and Forum on Diversity that I introduced early last winter. Since then, the Task Force has heard from over 200 staff and students and engaged a small team to consult on students’ and staff’s experiences and perceptions of diversity on campus. The aim was to learn from the rich diversity in our classes and halls so that we can increasingly engage in activities and dialogue that ensure the Mohawk experience is a global one. The report outlines five recommendations that have been prepared for consideration by the Board of Governors. The initial consultation, done in partnership with the Mohawk Students’ Association, heralds a renewed focus on social inclusion as part of the College’s strategic priorities. An expanded Social Inclusion Committee is now in place to guide the efforts of this initiative. Karen Pashleigh has joined the committee as my Co-chair from Corporate Services, Paul Armstrong and Marco Felvus are taking a leadership role from the Academic team and Michelle Ball is leading Student Services’ involvement. Other committee members are stakeholders from across the College, including the MSA. Reflecting on my own experience in the post-secondary environment, I am struck by the powerful stories that individuals have shared with me about their own struggles to feel they belong – and how they have overcome obstacles with the support of peers.

  • From Diversity to Uniformity: a Study of Eap Courses from Diversity to Uniformity
    FROM DIVERSITY TO UNIFORMITY: A STUDY OF EAP COURSES FROM DIVERSITY TO UNIFORMITY: A STUDY OF "ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES" COURSES IN COMMUNITY COLLEGES OF SOUTHERN ONTARIO By LYNN DIANE COURTNEY, B.A. A Project Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Masters of Arts (Teaching) McMaster University Q Copyright by Lynn Courtney, June, 1995 MASTER OF ARTS (TEACHING) (1995) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: From Diversity to Uniformity: A Study of "English for Academic Purposes" Courses in Community Colleges of Southern Ontario AUTHOR: Lynn Diane Courtney, B.A. (University of Toronto) SUPERVISORS: Dr. C. Beattie Dr. R. Frager NUMBER OF PAGES: x, 115 ii ABSTRACT The community colleges were established in Ontario in 1965 during a period of economic optimism, characterized by a spirit of innovation and diversity. Growth and a willingness to experiment were the order of the day. One very positive outcome of these features was the freedom of opportunity for the colleges to develop autonomously and according to the needs of their particular community. This independence or lack of government direct involvement has changed rather dramatically since 1990, however. Pressures from the Ministry, for more systematic planning and centralized decision-making have been felt, initiated by the publication of Vision 2000. As a result, the former independent, innovative and diverse qualities of the colleges appear to be in jeopardy. Why this change in philosophy? Why at this time? What possible consequences might result? These are just two of the questions that will be discussed in the following project.
