  • We Are Mcgill
    We are McGill On September 20, 2011, Provost Anthony Masi and Vice-Principal Michael di Grappa issued a communiqué concerning classes being held off-campus during the MUNACA strike. This followed an incident a week earlier in which a McGill professor was threatened with suspension for carrying out her academic duties by teaching off-campus so that she and her students would not have to cross the MUNACA picket line. The message from the Provost and the Vice-Principal was clearly intended to justify this threat in the eyes of the McGill community, and to intimidate other faculty members who might be contemplating similar action in support of their MUNACA co-workers. In presuming to express “McGill’s position” on this issue – as if the senior Administration were identical with the University—the Provost and the Vice-Principal selectively invoked regulations which they interpreted as requiring that academic duties be performed on campus. They also suggested that professors who teach off-campus during the strike are failing in their obligation to students by inconveniencing them and exposing them to unsafe learning conditions. We reject all of this. Teaching off-campus during strikes is a practice with a long and noble history at North American universities, one that allows faculty members and students to respect their co-workers, and their own consciences, while still meeting their obligations to each other. The Administration’s aggressive disregard for the integrity of this practice displays the very same lack of respect for the University’s diverse constituents that has characterized its treatment of McGill’s unionized support staff.

    NEW MUSIC GRADUATE STUDENT WELCOME LETTER AND SURVIVAL GUIDE JUNE 2013 Dear incoming music graduate students: On behalf of the Music Graduate Students’ Society (MGSS), welcome to McGill! We’re thrilled that you’re joining our community of ca. 300 grad students at the Schulich School of Music. The wide range of interests and skills you bring makes McGill an exciting place to perform and study music. As MGSS leaders, we want your time here to be the best it can be. We are here for you! We will host social/networking events throughout the year, including orientation, end of term parties, general assemblies, and monthly open mic nights in the Music Library (aka “Library After Hours”). Stay tuned to hear more about these and other initiatives at orientation on August 29th and on our website (http://sites.music.mcgill.ca/mgss/) and Facebook group (“McGill Music Graduate Students’ Society”). Also, check your McGill email regularly for messages from us. In addition to organizing social activities, MGSS advocates for grad students’ needs and interests within the Schulich School of Music. We have representatives for each department (research and performance), area (strings, music theory, etc.), and committees (library, IT, etc.). We encourage you to voice your ideas, questions, and concerns to any MGSS representative. For a list of current reps, see http://sites.music.mcgill.ca/mgss/council-and-representatives/. If you’re interested in getting involved, please contact us at [email protected]. MGSS also strives to support your careers as rising scholars and performers. Every March we organize a multi- day symposium at which graduate students from McGill and other universities present their work.
