  • The Concordia Dilemma Introduction in 2015 Concordia University Of
    Private1 or Public? The Concordia Dilemma Introduction In 2015 Concordia University of Edmonton separated from its Lutheran progenitor, shifting from being a private, faith based, not for profit, university to a private, secular, not for profit, university. The institution's leaders are now asking the next logical question; "Should Concordia ask the Alberta Government to shift the institution from the private (independent) to the public category? There are two separate issues to consider. The first is whether the government is willing to accept Concordia as a new public university, and under what terms. The second question is whether this would be a positive move for the future of the institution. Neither are trivial questions. Despite the fact that most of the older (pre 1960) Canadian universities had their origins as faith sponsored, private institutions, no Canadian institution in contemporary history has made the shift from private to an independent public university. For example, Brandon University became secular in 1938 and, along with Winnipeg, received a public charter in 1967. Consequently, for both the Alberta Government and Concordia there are no contemporary precedents from which to draw either process or impact observations. The current analysis addresses the second question: "What are the implications for Concordia University of Edmonton if the institution moves from the private to the public category in Alberta?" The issues of government disposition can be left to a subsequent consideration of strategy, and is only considered in this analysis in the context of the terms under which Concordia would become public. But, in general, the current analysis will focus on Concordia, not on the Government.

  • Dormitory Norms
    DORMITORY NORMS V:11.18.18SS OBJECTIVE OF SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY: A primary objective of the Syracuse Madrid dormitory program is to integrate students into Spanish society. Through this experience, students will have the opportunity to engage with Spanish students and improve their Spanish language skills while learning about Spain and experiencing Spanish culture. The residence hall, Colegio Mayor El Faro, inaugurated in September 2016 is a luxury student housing facility in the heart of Madrid, situated in the Moncloa neighborhood of downtown Madrid and is a 25-minute walk or a quick commute to the Syracuse Madrid Center. The rooms are furnished, including a safety deposit box, a small kitchenette with a sink, mini-fridge, and microwave. Bed linens and bath towels are provided and laundered weekly by the cleaning staff. Three daily meals in the El Faro cafeteria are included in this option. 1. INTRODUCTION • Syracuse Madrid students make up a small portion of those who live in the building. Other residents include Spanish and international students enrolled at local universities or in other study abroad programs. • Prior to arrival, students will have the opportunity to state their housing preferences and/or special needs. At this time, a specific roommate or random roommate may also be requested. • Syracuse Madrid prohibits discrimination based on gender, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, politics and/or religion. • Students will be provided with breakfast, lunch and dinner during established and published times. Students who attend UAM or the IE in Spain may pay an increased program fee to cover additional room and board costs, where applicable.
