  • Ontario Report: Process Or Content?
    Ontario Report: Process or Content? Murray G. Ross * The Learning Society. Report of the Commission on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario. Toronto : the Ministry of Government Services, 1972. The final report of the Commission on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario is such a vast improvement on its Draft Report that one is tempted to greet this new document with unqualified enthusiasm. The Draft Report published in January 1972 was a near disaster. Ill-conceived and badly written, it shocked the academic world — less by the ideas it proposed than by the level and quality of intellectual activity it represented. The final report, which is entitled The Learning Society, has been tidied up considerably : it is well-organized, clearly focused, and the writing has improved remarkably. But a comparison with the Draft Report is not an adequate basis upon which to judge the result of the Commission's work. One must see this latter in terms of the time, money and resources available. This is a Commission that has been in existence for four years, it had ample funds (spending $304,000 on its meetings, $671,000 for research, $273,000 for public hearings), members of the Commission visited 11 foreign countries including Japan, Norway, Denmark and West Germany, and it was in receipt of 742 briefs from individuals, groups, and institutions in the Province. Given these resources in time, money and ideas one has a right to expect a thorough examination of the post-secondary system of education in Ontario ; a well-documented and reason pre- sentation of problems, issues and solutions ; and a series of recommendations that give direction not only to the post-secondary educational system as a whole but for the various parts of that system as well.

From Local Innovation to Global Excellence: Proposal for a French-Language University in Ontario Report of the French-Language University Planning Board – June 30, 2017 June 30, 2017 The Honourable Deb Matthews Minister for Advanced Education and Skills Development Dear Minister, On December 13, 2016, the Planning Board for a French-language University had the pleasure of welcoming you and the Minister Responsible for Francophone Affairs at its very first meeting. You confirmed that this project was very important to the government and that the inclusion of a requirement to “identify governance models by and for francophones” in the Board’s terms of reference was not an empty gesture. You asked the Board to be innovative and strategic, and to suggest potential affiliations and partnerships with universities not only in Ontario, but also in Canada and around the world. In other words, you placed your trust in us. Today, June 30, 2017, we deliver this report with much pride after having completed our task under a very tight timeline.

  • Collège Boréal Presents First University Partners for Future Toronto Campus
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Collège Boréal Presents First University Partners for Future Toronto Campus Tuesday, May 14, 2019 – Toronto – Ontario Council on Articulation and Transfer (ONCAT) ▪ Today Collège Boréal presented the first group of partners who will contribute to the implementation of the pedagogical plan for its future campus in the Distillery District: Glendon College at York University, Laurentian University, Saint Paul University, the University of Ottawa, and the University of Moncton. ▪ Partnerships with these institutions will allow students enrolled in programs offered by Collège Boréal to pursue a University degree directly upon graduation from college. ▪ The intention is to offer these university programs at the new Collège Boréal campus at the Distillery District. The University of Moncton, because it is based outside Ontario, will be required to obtain legislative approvals prior to offering programs in this province. ▪ Other university partners will join Collège Boréal in the Distillery District. All programs offered on the future campus will be articulated with a university program. French-language and bilingual Canadian universities contribute to the construction of Collège Boréal’s new campus in Toronto. On Tuesday, May 14, 2019, the President of Collège Boréal, Daniel Giroux, and the presidents and representatives of Glendon College at York University, Laurentian University, Saint Paul University, the University of Ottawa, and the University of Moncton were present at the Ontario Council on Articulation and Transfer (ONCAT), which is responsible for the development of the student mobility system across the province, for the formal presentation of Collège Boréal’s first university partners. More flexibility and opportunities for students These partnerships will improve program offerings on campus: because their college credentials will be recognized by partner institutions, Collège Boréal students will have the option of pursuing a baccalaureate on site, at the Distillery District campus in Toronto.

  • Glendon College, York University – Minou Kimenai
    GLENDON COLLEGE, YORK UNIVERSITY – MINOU KIMENAI Major: SSC (Economics, Anthropology) Semester of exchange: 5 (Fall 2015) Period: 30-08-2015 – 24-12-2015 Place: Toronto, Canada 1. MOTIVATION What were your initial reasons for going on exchange? I love travelling and always wanted to live in another country and experience a different culture for a while. Also, I wanted to take more economics courses than UCR had to offer. 2. PREPARATION How was the preparation in terms of timing and work? How did you find your exchange location? What would you do differently if you would do it again? I spent quite some time looking at the different exchange destinations at the UU website and what courses all universities had to offer. I decided I wanted to go to Canada, and my top-3 consisted of two UU exchange partners and an UCR exchange partner. As my first choice was the University of Victoria, I applied at Utrecht at the end of December. However, my application at Utrecht got cancelled by UCR. The registrar thought that Glendon College was my first choice. The reason for this mistake was that my initial exchange request was disapproved because I did not fill enough courses for Glendon College. I was told to fill in the exchange request form again, but just the section for the second choice, Glendon College, was enough. When UCR had to communicate to UU whether the exchange was approved, they only looked at the second form and only saw Glendon on that one. Therefore, I advise everyone to always hand in completely filled in forms to the registrar, even when they tell you it is not needed.
