The holiday season is behind us, but the activities and accolades of 2018 still give us to plenty to celebrate. That is why this edition of GCU Magazine is packed with examples of good news worth sharing—with you and with those you know. First, the Georgian Court–Hackensack Meridian Health School of Nursing is celebrating its 10-year anniversary. Our first decade has produced successful health care professionals serving patients from coast to coast, and the program is among the fastest growing at GCU. In this issue of the magazine, I’d like you to meet two unforgettable alumni. Florence “Riccie” Riccobono Johnson ’45 (pp. 28–29) has worked at CBS for more than six decades and reflects on her time at 60 Minutes, where she’s been employed since 1968. Gemma Brennan ’84, ’93 (pp. 6–9), a longtime teacher, principal, and part-time GCU professor, is sharing her passion in unique ways. Likewise, our newest honorary degree recipient, His Royal Highness The Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, shared his passion for court tennis during a September visit to GCU (p. 13). Georgian Court was at its absolute finest as the prince met students, faculty, staff, and coaches, and played several matches in the Casino. A few weeks later, I was proud to see alumni join in the fun of Reunion and Homecoming Weekend 2018 (p.

  • International Staff Network Handbook Foreword
    Cardiff University International Staff Network HANDBOOK FOREWORD Welcome to Cardiff University and to our International Staff Network handbook. Cardiff is a great place to live and work, but many of us were once ourselves new international members of staff, and therefore know how daunting it can be to cope with the demands of a new job, a new city and a new country. Our team is here to help. With the financial backing of Cardiff Futures, the Vice-Chancellor’s development programme for Early Career Academics, we have set up an International Staff Network during the 2016-17 academic year to provide support and advice. Our network will officially launch in October 2016. In this handbook, we have compiled practical information about living and working in Cardiff that we wish we had known when we arrived. It is not intended to be exhaustive but hopefully should guide you towards other helpful sources of information. We have recruited some 50 colleagues from 29 countries who have volunteered to be mentors. They will be happy to offer advice in person, via email or through the International Staff Network group on Yammer. We would like to thank everybody who has made this initiative possible: the Cardiff Futures programme and our fellow participants, our student assistants Kathryn Muldoon and Rosanna Towle, the Human Resources Department, and not least all those colleagues throughout the University who have advised us on the handbook and will be acting as mentors. This is an ongoing project, so we would welcome your feedback on the current content and suggestions for further improvement.

The full report and action plan is at Annex 1. Professor Nolan will brief Court. 2. Scottish Funding Council Grant, 2012/13 On 30 March, the SFC issued the University's grant letter for 2012/13. Much of the information was already provided to us in December 2011 in the Indicative Grant Letter. However, a number of items have been changed and others clarified. There are a significant number of grant lines that will come under review over the next 1-3 years. The main points to note are: Teaching 1. SFC have re-confirmed the full restoration of the 2010/11 Teaching Units of Resource and Funded places and then added a 2.6% uplift to the Teaching Units of Resource. However, the additional allocation for strategically important high cost areas is now £3.6M compared to £4.1M in the Indicative Grant Letter. 2. Our overall Teaching Funding for 2012/13 is £83.6M compared to the December 2011 forecast of £83.7M (reduction of £118k). 3. Of the additional 300 funded places in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) allocated in 2012/13, Glasgow has received 50 of these places. By 2015/16 this will rise to 200 additional STEM places for Glasgow. 4. An additional 15 Funded places have been made available for the Dumfries Campus in 2012/13.
