  • The Very First Food Laureate
    > VOLUME 6 | ISSUE 2 | FALL 2012 The Very First Food Laureate Anita Stewart, an expert on food and Canadian cuisine, will serve as the University of Guelph’s honorary food ambassador, providing advocacy and leadership and promoting initiatives. As Food Laureate, Anita Stewart will promote the University of Guelph’s (U of G) culinary contributions to Canada by refining the food inventory, developing public awareness campaigns, organizing events and strengthening connections between producers and consumers. During her two-year appointment, Anita will report jointly to the deans of OAC and the College of Management Economics (CME). “This historic appointment is a significant step towards strengthening U of G’s reputation as ‘Canada’s food university,’” says president Alastair Summerlee. “We are known internationally as the place for food research, teaching and technology, but our contributions to the culinary life of Canada need to be more widely touted.” Anita has an impressive résumé. She founded Cuisine Canada to promote the growth and study of Canadian food culture. Anita was the first Canadian to earn a master of arts in gastronomy; has authored or co-authored 14 books on Canadian foods and wines that include many U of G examples; and appears regularly on CBC Radio. Besides consulting on Ontario’s culinary tourism strategy, she has worked frequently with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and the Canadian Tourism Commission and Ontario Ministry of Tourism. Anita also created Food Day Canada, a national event that evolved from her World’s Longest Barbecue in 2003 intended to support Canadian farmers after that year’s BSE crisis.

  • Thesis Proposal
    Systemic and Climate Diversity in Ontario’s University Sector By Pierre Gilles Piché A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto ©Copyright by Pierre Gilles Piché (2014) Systemic and Climate Diversity in Ontario’s University Sector Pierre Gilles Piché Doctor of Philosophy Department of Leadership, Higher and Adult Education University of Toronto 2014 ABSTRACT The extent and nature of institutional differentiation is a design choice among many that must be considered by policymakers not only when developing a higher education system but also when introducing policy changes to an existing system. Modifications to the design of Ontario’s higher education system have been suggested over the years in an effort to increase its quality (instruction and research) and accessibility in a cost effective manner. The fiscal climate of restraint has recently intensified the debate for structural changes through increased institutional differentiation in Ontario’s higher education system. Institutional diversity was examined using a mixed research method in two phases. This study first used hierarchical cluster analysis which suggested that there has been very little change in diversity between 1994 and 2010 as universities were clustered in three groups for both 1994 and 2010. However, by adapting Birnbaum’s (1983) diversity matrix methodology to Ontario’s university sector, there appears to have been a decrease in systemic diversity (differences in the type of institution and size of institution) and climate diversity (differences in campus environment and culture) between 1994 and 2010 and a projected further decrease to 2018.

There was a time when we had to work hard just to T find a committed person willing to serve as a regional representative on the Steering Committee. Clearly, we have moved well beyond those days. This time around, in Alberta alone, there were seven people nominated to be their regional rep. In all, twenty-four people were nominated from the six regions. Over two hundred members took part in the vote to ratify the nomination for President-Elect. What do these numbers mean? To me, they mean that the strategic planning work in which the Steering Committee is engaged is more pressing than ever. In this issue of our newsletter, we provide another update on that work. We also provide formal introduction of our latest cohort of 3M Teaching Fellows. Those of you who were able to attend STLHE 2003 in Vancouver will have met this great group. They join a group of Teaching Fellows that now has a Council and a series of excellent projects in its sights. Expect great things. Through all of this, the landscape of teaching and learning in higher education is ever-shifting. In some quarters, universities with strong teaching reputations are trying to re-position themselves by emphasizing their research prowess, perhaps because they perceive this to be the position that will attract the most financial support.

Guelph ranks No. 1 both in the number of inventions per faculty and in the number of inventions in proportion to research funding, according to a survey by the Impact Group. In fact, Guelph’s invention disclosure rate is twice the national average, and we have by far the lowest cost-per-disclosure rate in the country. This is possible because of our world-class researchers, infrastructure and visionary partners, including the provincial and federal governments.

Universities Fighting World Hunger hunger program to print:Layout 1 18/02/11 11:33 AM Page 3 WELCOME Welcome to the University of Guelph. I am delighted that the University is hosting the Annual Summit for Universities Fighting World Hunger. The University is strongly committed to civic engagement. More than 70% of our students volunteer their time in a myriad of causes and a significant number of faculty and staff are actively involved in a number of charities and organizations worldwide. In fact, our commitments won us the accolade of the “most caring University in the World” in 2009. I sincerely hope that you will enjoy your time here and that you will be inspired by the actions of others to think about ways that you can continue to fight against hunger. February is not the warmest month of the year in Ontario but I trust that you will find the warmth of the reception at Guelph and the inspiration you gain from the Summit compensation for the wintery weather outside. Alastair J. S. Summerlee President and Vice-Chancellor University of Guelph The number one Millennium Goal was set to reduce serious hunger in the world significantly by 2015.
