  • Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and Their Program Choices
    Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Program Choices by Pamela Williamson A dissertation submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Higher Education Graduate Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto © Copyright by Pamela Williamson (2011) Assessing the Influence of First Nation Education Counsellors on First Nation Post-Secondary Students and their Post-Secondary Program Choices Doctor of Higher Education 2011 Pamela Williamson Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education University of Toronto Abstract The exploratory study focused on First Nation students and First Nation education counsellors within Ontario. Using an interpretative approach, the research sought to determine the relevance of the counsellors as a potentially influencing factor in the students‘ post-secondary program choices. The ability of First Nation education counsellors to be influential is a consequence of their role since they administer Post- Secondary Student Support Program (PSSSP) funding. A report evaluating the program completed by Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in 2005 found that many First Nation students would not have been able to achieve post-secondary educational levels without PSSSP support. Eight self-selected First Nation Education counsellors and twenty-nine First Nation post- secondary students participated in paper surveys, and five students and one counsellor agreed to complete a follow-up interview. The quantitative and qualitative results revealed differences in the perceptions of the two survey groups as to whether First Nation education counsellors influenced students‘ post-secondary program choices.

  • Knights of Columbus' Good Works Assist Parish and Community
    September 2012 Knights of Columbus’ good works assist parish and community The local councils of the Knights of Columbus (KofC) remain vigilant in providing assistance to those in need while adhering to their Roman Catholic beliefs that are the driving force behind the organization as it continues to grow. “I always recognized it as a great service group within the church, which ties faith to service and service to faith,” says Jack Schreader, a member since 2005 and Grand Knight of the KofC, Bishop N.Z. Lorrain Council 1531 of Pembroke. “It’s a great group of guys.” On October 2, 1881, Father Michael J. McGivney called together a group of men to a church basement in New Haven, Connecticut. At that gathering, a pledge was made to form a fraternal order based on their devotion to their country, families and faith. A life insurance program was established by the founders to provide for widows and orphans of deceased members, which still exists to this day. Those wishing to join the KofC must be 18 years of age and be practicing Roman Catholics in union with the Holy See. Prospective applicants must accept the teaching authority of the Catholic Church on matters of faith and morals, strive to live in accordance with the Our Lady of Guadalupe celebration on January 26, 2012, featuring the Icon and the Knights of Columbus precepts of the Church, and be in good standing in the newly formed choir. Catholic Church. Not unlike the challenges the diocese currently faces in engaging youth to reconnect with their faith, so, recently, a new gathering of Knights is being established “I have a lot of family roots in that area,” explains too, are the KofC encountering hurdles in recruiting in Douglas via St.

NSSE comparison groups may be customized by (a) identifying specific institutions from the list of all 2015 and 2016 NSSE participants, (b) composing the group by selecting institutional characteristics, or (c) a combination of these. Institutions that chose not to customize received default groupsa that provide relevant comparisons for most institutions. Institutions that appended additional question sets in the form of topical modules or through consortium participation were also invited to customize comparison groups for those reports.

  • President's Report to the Board
    President's Report to the Board March 5, 2015 From the President The arrival of March typically marks the end of the year for university‐level sports. Virtually all of our varsity athletes have now hung up their sneakers (or skis) for the season. The one exception is Natasha Doroodian, a second‐year Law and Justice major who is in Edmonton this weekend competing for a national championship in wrestling. My family and I had the opportunity to watch Natasha compete for Gold two weekends ago in the Ontario Championships in Sudbury. She ended up with the Silver Medal, and we should be immensely proud to have a varsity athlete who is already the second‐ best in Ontario at what she does, in only her second year. We’ll watch carefully to see how Natasha fares at the Nationals. The close of the varsity season seemed like an apt time to provide Board members with an overview of how we have made out in our first two years competing in university‐level sports. Our Director of Athletics, Mark Kontulainen, has prepared as special report on the varsity program that you’ll find at the end of this edition of the President’s Report. One point that Board members should take special note of: we now have 103 student‐athletes in our varsity program, and 70% of them have indicated that the opportunity to compete in interuniversity sport was a significant factor in their choice to come to Algoma. Continuing with the theme of students, I would like to report that I had a very interesting two‐hour Town Hall meeting with our students on Wednesday of this week.
