Bvlaw Amendments Membership of the Senate Awards Committee Since 1996, the bylaw of the Senate Awards Committee has indicated that the membership should include, among others, "five members of Senate, two of whom shall be students, and one of whom shall be an alumni." In practice, this has never been followed. Instead, each year since 1996 there have been 3 faculty members of Senate, two student Senators and an alumnus. The Bylaws and Membership Committee considered whether to revise the bylaw to bring it into line with practice or to insist that practice conform to the bylaw. It decided that the former was the better option to ensure that quorum requirements can be met and that there are a sufficient number of Senators on the Committee from which to draw the Chair and Vice-Chair. MOTION: that the membership of the Senate Committee on Awards be amended to read: "Six members of Senate, two of whom shall be students and one of whom shall be an alumni". b. Faculty Seat on the Board of Governors To be dealt with in closed session. Ballot attached for Senate members. In accordance with the Senate Bylaws, nominationsfrom thefloor are permitted to provide alternative candidates for any slate presented by the Bylaws &Membership Committee. Such nominations much be accompanied by a completed nomination form (obtainablefrom the Secretary of Senate) and the nominee must have indicated, in writing, a willingness to serve on the Committee. Membership: M. Rozanski F. Braga K. Woodside D. Calvert P. Conlon P. Loptson J. Sum M. Marsland University of Guelph SENATE Tuesday, October 1,2002 REPORT FROM THE BOARD OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDIES Chair: J. Walsh, HTM <[email protected]> For Action: a. Academic Consideration for Religious Obligations - Policv Amendment Concerns have been raised that the University's policy on accommodation for religious obligations is inadequate. While in practice students have been, for the most part accommodated in a reasonable wav... the wording- of the current calendar statement implies that such accommodation is a privilege rather than a right and does not provide any safeguard that the accommodation provided will not put the student at academic disadvantage,- leaving- the University vulnerable to a human rights challenge. Accordingly, a number of amendments to the wording of the policy are being proposed including a recommendation that it be made a separate paragraph in the calendar under its own heading (currently it is printed in the section on academic consideration). In developing the new wording the policies of other universities in Ontario were reviewed and the proposed new wording is consistent with policies elsewhere. As with the current policy, the student must self-identify and the initial request for consideration is dealt with by the instructor for the course. Subsequent appeal to the department chair by the student has also been retained in the revised policy. For units, such as OVC, which have clinical or other types of practica instruction elements in their programs, students may need to identify potential conflicts earlier than the policy indicates. These units should be sure to advise their students of the need for earlier reporting at the appropriate point. The redrafted section is attached. MOTION: that Senate approve the proposed amendments to the Policy on Academic Consideration for Religious Obligations. Academic Accommodation of Religious Obligations (changes in bold) The University acknowledges the pluralistic nature of the graduate and undergraduate communities and that accommodation will be made to students who experience a conflict between a religious obligation and scheduled tests, mid-term examinations, final examination, or requirements to attend classes and participate in laboratories. The type of accommodation granted will vary depending on the nature, weight and timing of ly, the reauest for the instructor in charge of the course within two weeks of the distribution of the course outline. A student requiring accommodation -st.tg-t& instmqtor ?dxeqtlyeorzthrough hislher program counsellor. The instructor has a responsibility to provide reasonable alternative arrangements that do not put the student at an academic disadvantage. In the case of a conflict with a final examination, the instructor should reschedule the examination to another time during the examination period taking care that the new date and time does not put the student at an academic disadvantage. Stdents In the event that a student is not satisfied with the accommodation offered by the instructor, helshe may appeal to the Department Chair who may grant alternative accommodation. A student who remains dissatisfied with the outcome of hislher request may seek the assistance of the Human Rights and Equity Office to facilitate a resolution. Delete: - paragraph on religious obligations under Academic Consideration, p. 29 of the 2002-03 Undergraduate- Calendar - paragraph #3 under Final Examinations: Student's Responsibilities, p. 37 of the 2002-2003 Undergraduate Calendar. Filename: I:\senate\02-03 meetings\02oct1\020ctl0religiousoblig.wpd b. Academic Schedule of Dates 2003-2004 (attached - page 24) The Academic Schedule of Dates was developed in accordance with the principles approved by Senate. Some particular points to note: . Early add periods have been provided (August 18-24 and December 8-14) to facilitate semester start-up . Fall Convocation has been moved to the third week of October to avoid Thanksgiving and Yom Kippur . Winter 2004 start-up t University re-opens January 5' t Add period runs for six days - January 5-12 t Late Registration runs from January 5-7 MOTION: that Senate approve the proposed Schedule of Dates for 2003-2004 as presented. c. Bachelor of Science - Proposal for a Biological Chemistrv Program (attached - page 27) MOTION: that Senate approve the proposed Bachelor of Science program in Biological Chemistry. d. Associate Diploma Programs Last year Senate approved, in principle, an extensive restructuring of the Associate Diploma Programs which included the establishment of several new diploma programs and the deletion of others. The details of three new programs are now presented for approval. (i). New Diploma in Food, Nutrition and Risk Management (attached-pg. 49) (ii) New ~Glomain Turfgrass Management (attached - page 93) (iii) New Diploma in Environmental Management (attached - page 139) MOTION: that Senate approve the proposed new diploma program in Food, Nutrition and Risk Management to be offered at Kemptville College.

  • Forging Ahead to Find a Local Solution for Kemptville College
    News Release May 8, 2014 Forging ahead to find a local solution for Kemptville College North Grenville, ON – Nearly two months after the announcement that the University of Guelph’s Kemptville and Alfred Campuses would close, provincial facilitators have finally been appointed. However, the provincially-appointed facilitators are unable to work with stakeholders on a solution for Kemptville College until after the June 12th election. Rather than allowing further delays that put the future of the campus at risk, The Kemptville College Renewal Task Force is busy finding new life for the College during this period. “We are seeking formal Expressions of Interest from potential partners interested in providing post-secondary education and research services at Kemptville College,” said Brian Carré, Chair of the Kemptville College Renewal Task Force. “A number of public and private sector groups have already come forward with proposals.” The Task Force is focused on local solutions for Kemptville College that respond to the needs of the agriculture and agri-food industries along with skilled trades while providing reasonable access to relevant and affordable post-secondary education for the people of Eastern Ontario. “We want to hear from potential partners interested in operating the campus and delivering educational services and a research program aligned with the Task Force Mission Statement,” continued Carré. “We’re also looking for innovative programming – such as international education and research, training certification, private and public sector use of facilities, corporate and community partnerships – to ensure the long-term success of a renewed Kemptville College.” The Task Force will be receiving Expressions of Interest until May 28th.
