The Academic Advising Centre will be following up with these students again throughout this term and will conduct the project again in Winter 2020 for new, first-year students. Since September 10, 2019, 908 students have attended the Learning Support Workshops at the Centre for Student Academic Support (CSAS) and 514 stu- dents have accessed the online Learning Support Workshops on cuLearn. In addition, CSAS has seen the following throughout September and October: 78 Learning Support Workshops at CSAS 6 were facilitated by campus partners 10 were writing workshops 48 one-on-one Learning Support Sessions 28 in-class Learning Support Workshops 4,577 visits to PASS with 1,905 unique students attending PASS 209 students have come in for a one-on-one Writing Consultations 30+ in-class presentations from Writing Services Office of the Vice-President (Students and Enrolment) STUDENT SUCCESS: FINANCES The Awards and Financial Aid Office were able to improve their batch process for OSAP accounts so that fewer than 5% required manual processing. This freed up time for administrators to process applications received after the pay- ment deadline and getting funds to more students faster than ever. This term, the Awards and Financial Aid Office was excited to welcome a Car- leton Therapy Dog into the office. Moose is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi who loves adventure and his handler, Tracy, works as a Financial Aid Administrator. You can read more about Moose and his office hours by visiting: carleton.ca/ wellness/profile/moose STUDENT SUCCESS: EMPLOYABILITY President Bacon collaborated with READ’s David C. Onley Initiative to create a video pledge with his support for the #AbleTo campaign which launched on campus earlier this fall. The next stage of the campaign will engage students to create awareness about the importance of developing employability skills and challenging employers to be #AbleTo create inclusive work environments for students and graduates with disabilities. Career Services hosted a successful “Careers in Sports and Entertainment” night at TD Stadium where students networked with a range of leaders within the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group, with the goal of providing students exposure to the various career paths available in this field, such as Communica- tions and Community Engagement, Brand and Marketing, and Business Devel- opment and Partnerships. Following the networking portion of the event, stu- dents were treated to an Ottawa Fury soccer game. The 5-week international student workshop series “I want a job in Canada. Where do I start?” is running for the 5th year this academic year. 273 students attended at least one session of the international student workshop series (a 21% increase from last year). The International Internship team hosted the annual Global Internship Fair where students are connected with international partners to assist in landing valuable international work opportunities. It was the most successful Global Internship Fair to date with high student traffic throughout the entire event and great feedback from our partners. Career Services and Co-op Education hosted two full days of the Fall Career Fair on October 16 and 17, 2019, and the pre-event, the ‘Prepare for the Fair Pop Up’ saw 135 students attend for a resume review. The Co-op Program saw a 12% increase in students employed in co-op work terms this Summer 2019 compared to Summer 2018. There were 1,511 co-op students employed during the Summer 2019 term. Office of the Vice-President (Students and Enrolment) The Co-op Office is adding some new co-op options to its current roster of 149 co-op programs, streams and concentrations. Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Media Production and Design (BMPD) co-op option will be looking to begin their first work term in Winter 2021; both the M.A. Migration and Diaspora Studies program and the M.Eng. Sustainable Energy program will see students seeking their first co-op work term for Summer 2021; and, the Interdisciplinary Science and Practice (ISAP) co-op option will see its first cohort of students seeking co-op employment for Summer 2022. STUDENT SUCCESS: CAMPUS LIFE Housing and Residence Life Services has started the planning and preparing of the new residence building to be opened in 2022. Consultations continue with internal and external stakeholders on the program- ming and design of proposed Wellness Hub and University Centre re-visioning. The Department of Housing and Residence Life Services is working with the De- partment of Equity and Inclusive Communities to create an Indigenous student space in Stormont House for Indigenous students living in residence. The space is scheduled to be open in January 2020. Campus Safety Services and the Office of the Vice-President (Students and En- rolment) oversaw the creation of Carleton’s first Emergency Preparedness Week (October 7-11, 2019). The week included tabling stations with Campus Safety Services staff including Student Safety Patrollers and members of CUSERT along with a comprehensive communications campaign and test of the Emer- gency Notification System. The International Student Services Office (ISSO) had over 400 students attend the I-Start Orientation Sessions where they had the opportunity to learn about topics such as: transitioning to student life at Carleton, immigration, health care and staying safe on campus. This year the ISSO partnered with the Registrar’s Office to host a Welcome Event for Incoming International Exchange Students on September 3, 2019. The event saw 155 exchange students get important information about their ex- change, course registration and fun opportunities to get involved with the Car- leton and Ottawa community. First Year Connections (a first year mentoring program) saw a record interest with over 800 students registered for the Fall 2019 program. The First Year Con- nections program focuses on the first 6 weeks of a new student’s transition into post-secondary studies. Students are matched to an upper year trained mentor based on a variety of key metrics. The Transfer Student Peer Mentorship program matches incoming upper year students with former transfer students to provide guidance and support. The number of students served by this program increased by 26% and helped this community successfully transition into the campus community. The Community Connections mentorship program has launched for the 2019- 2020 year. This program allows students to access customized strengths-based peer support with a further understanding and accessing of resources, develop- ing a stronger sense of belonging in the community, developing strategies for building positive mental health, and discussing challenges, goals and areas of growth with a trained peer mentor. Office of the Vice-President (Students and Enrolment) As part of Alternative Spring Break (ASB), 70 students will travel to five destina- tions in the United States, Guatemala and Costa Rica. Each experience is fo- cused on a specific theme, including colonialism, emerging markets, environ- mental sustainability and immigration. The SOAR 2020 Student Leadership Conference is pleased to announce and wel- come Tessa Virtue, Canadian Olympic Figure Skater as the guest speaker on January 18, 2020. SOAR is an opportunity for students to develop their leader- ship skills, attend workshops hosted by their peers, campus leaders, staff, facul- ty, alumni and community members all in support of their co-curricular learn- ing. The International Student Services Office (ISSO) hosted some educational and fun events throughout October to get international students further connected to the Canadian community. Students had the opportunity to attend a cooking class (in partnership with Aramark), the Museum of Nature and Fall Rhapsody in Gatineau Park to see the changing of the leaves. Biweekly, on Friday afternoons, the ISSO hosts Canadian Tea Time in our lounge, where students can share some tea and cookies and make connections. The Ravens House Cup has been relaunched to engage students working with CUSA, Residence Life, Student Affairs and the Student Experience Office to co- promote events and create a weekly challenge. In September, there were 600 interactions, which exceeds last year’s total for the academic year. On October 2, 2019, the International Student Services Office (ISSO) hosted an Exchange and Study Abroad Fair in the University Centre Galleria. The event provided students with the opportunity to find out more about the Exchange Program, our exchange partners and to speak with students who have been on exchange or who are here studying on exchange. Representatives from Career Services, Ontario Universities International, along with select exchange partners were also on hand to support Carleton students in their quest for international experiential learning opportunities. Immigration Advisors in the International Student Services Office (ISSO) had over 325 advising interactions with international students in September – dis- cussing topics such as study permit conditions and renewals, work privileges and post-graduate work permits.

  • May 31, 2019 Dear: Mr. Mark Goudie, Chief Executive Officer, Ottawa
    May 31, 2019 Dear: Mr. Mark Goudie, Chief Executive Officer, Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) Dr. Benoit-Antoine Bacon, President, Carleton University Mme Suzanne Blanchard, Vice-President, Students and Enrollment, Carleton University Re : Panda Game 2019 As Chair of the Sandy Hill Town and Gown committee, and as President of Sandy Hill’s community association, we are writing to ask for your participation in a measure to mitigate the highly negative effects of the Carleton Ravens vs. Ottawa GeeGees Panda Game. In recent years, due in part to its early Saturday afternoon kick-off time, the Panda Game has drawn huge crowds from both universities, as well as from outside the Ottawa university communities. The behaviour has been wholly unacceptable, and has included property damage, harassment of residents, trespassing, urinating on private property etc. The Sandy Hill community finds itself requiring additional measures be put in place to mitigate the disruptive behaviour associated with Panda Game pre and post celebrations. With a large, concentrated of student population, residents of Sandy Hill are faced with significant challenges during these Panda Game celebrations. As Ottawa’s Sport Commissioner, I recognize how important the Panda Game is for Carleton University, for the University of Ottawa, for OSEG, and for alumni and students in Ottawa. However, as the Councillor for Ward 12, I need to alert you to the costly measures that the City of Ottawa and the Ottawa Police have been forced to shoulder to mitigate this event in Sandy Hill. A study by the City’s Special Events Advisory Team of the causes of the safety and damages suffered by the residents pointed to a number of causes.

  • President's Annual Report to the Carleton University Board Of
    President’s Annual Report to the Carleton University Board of Governors 2016-2017 The goals on which we agreed for this year included maintaining current enrolment, while adjusting for formula changes, achieving strategic plan goals, balancing the budget, ensuring the success of the 75th anniversary celebrations, and continuing to achieve the fundraising campaign goals. Enrolment goals were achieved. Strategic plan goals were met or surpassed in nearly every case. There remains, of course, some work for next year, the final year of the plan (Ours the Task Eternal!). The budget was balanced. The 75th anniversary is off to an excellent start and activities are well planned for the rest of the year. Fundraising has had the best year in history. This is the result of an extraordinary team with whom it has been a great privilege to work. A notable event was the naming of Richcraft Hall in recognition of a gift from the Singhal family. Another was the gift by the Ottawa Senators Foundation and Bell Let’s Talk to the Daniel Alfredsson Scholarship in Mental Health. The generosity of alumni, the campus community, and our friends around the world was heartwarming. Alumni in Jakarta and Hong Kong proudly remembered their days here and lent their support to the next generation of Carleton scholars. While the Strategic Plan goals were more than achieved in nearly every category, retention and graduation rates improved only slightly. We will continue to work on improving them in the coming year. An analysis, using data analytics, of areas on which we plan to concentrate in the coming year to improve results was presented to the Board of Governors this year.

  • The Northern 8 Series INTRODUCTION
    The Northern 8 series INTRODUCTION Inter-conference play has been part of Canadian university football for nearly eight decades. In the 1940’s teams from Eastern Canada toured the West, with the established teams from Central Canada winning by lopsided scores. In the late fifties and early sixties teams from Central Canada and the West made the first efforts toward a truly national championship. Early Churchill Bowls featured inter-conference exhibitions. During this time, Atlantic teams had their invitations accepted from teams in Central Canada. In 1959, the Churchill Bowl was billed as “the first Dominion championship” featuring the UBC Thunderbirds and the Western Ontario Mustangs. In 1963, the Alberta Golden Bears hosted the Queen’s Golden Gaels in the “Golden Bowl” for the Lieutenant- Governor’s Trophy. The cancellation of a scheduled invitational national championship in 1964 gave way to the creation of the Vanier Cup in 1965. In the modern era of the game there have been numerous examples of interlocking and inter-conference play. Teams have played in two conferences in the same season. The OQIFC played partial interlocks in the 1970’s. Since 2002, the RSEQ has played an interlocking schedule with the AUS. Laval hosts a team from the Canada West or OUA every year as an exhibition. In all of those cases, there has been nothing more than a local marketing push surrounding these games. Television and its’ potential reach have never been factored into a national brand during the regular season. 2014 was the first year since the 1950’s that Ontario university football was not covered on a weekly basis TV either regionally or nationally.
