It was a busy year on the Board; I stepped into the role as Board Chair and the Government of Yukon appointed five Governors to the Board - Judy Gingell, Tom Ullyett, Jocelyn Curteanu, Eric Jun Hyeok Kim and Ernest Prokopchuk.

President Barnes and her team made significant progress on conversations focused on advancing the institution through philanthropy. Future donations were announced by the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC) for $500,000 in support of our transition to Yukon University, the Bank of Montreal (BMO) for $400,000 in support of permafrost research and private foundations stepped up as well, with project-focused funding including a $500,000 gift from the Weston Garfield Foundation.

Following extensive lobbying, the Government of Canada generously announced Message from $26M in budget 2019 to support the construction of a science building at the Ayamdigut Campus of Yukon College in . The building should be the Chair, Board completed in 2023. It will facilitate science education and research through both of Governors Western and Indigenous lenses, balancing the two ways of knowing and doing. Chris Milner In February the Honourable Marc Garneau announced funding of over $368,000 over two years starting in 2019-20. These funds will support the Northern Climate ExChange at Yukon College, to design and implement systems to identify potential permafrost-related hazards, such as landslides and ground subsidence.

In anticipation of becoming Canada’s first university in the Circumpolar north, Global Affairs will start supporting the UArctic North to North program – a student exchange program that will enable northern post-secondary students to pursue studies in other circumpolar countries. This program will be managed through Yukon College.

In September of this year Dr. Barnes was elected to the University of the Arctic Board of Governors at the Congress meeting in Oulu, Finland. She joins other Presidents from universities in the eight Arctic states, bringing focus to programs and research built in the north.

It was a year of change at the Board level. And at the donor level, we’re seeing the start of some positive philanthropic recognition for Yukon College, and the future Yukon University – soon to become Canada’s first university north of 60.

We’re well on the way to the Yukon University transition. This year we saw the final convocation of Yukon College. Since the introduction of the Yukon College Act in 1988, transitioning the institution from the Whitehorse Vocational and Technical School (later named Yukon Vocational and Technical School), we have seen immense growth and change. We’re now ready for the next stage in our growth!

Another milestone occurred this year: the Bachelor of Business Administration degree was approved by Campus Alberta Quality Council. This is now our second made-in-the-Yukon degree.

Yukon College continues to deliver several partner degrees. In fact, this year we celebrated 30 years of delivery for the Bachelor of Education degree – the Yukon Native Teacher Education Program, as it’s also known - in partnership with the Message from . the President and In addition to the development of Yukon degrees, another programming shift Vice Chancellor, has occurred – the delivery of credit programs available entirely online. This Yukon College is a welcome new development in Yukon communities. Our first made-in- the-Yukon degree, the Bachelor of Arts in Indigenous Governance – is now Dr. Karen Barnes available entirely at a distance, as is the Community Education and Employment Support program, developed in close partnership with Yukon First Nations. This increasing availability of credit programming to the communities is an exciting development for the Yukon.

An increasing number of students are coming to Yukon College from around the world. Given the Yukon’s persistent labour shortages, the Yukon Government is aware of this potential source of labour, and as such, initiated the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding, which aims to raise awareness of Yukon employment opportunities among eligible international students.

Of course, an increase in students further emphasized the housing shortage issue. In February of 2018 the Board directed the tendering of a pilot housing project with developers in Whitehorse. Kobayashi and Zedda Architects were chosen to provide micro-units in a building they were building in downtown Whitehorse. Five units were made available in January 2019 to students.

Our journey and evolution to Yukon University continues. We look forward to the passing of Yukon University legislation in the fall of 2019 and the celebration of Yukon University in 2020!
