  • Childcare Working Group Briefing Paper August 2013 Revised
    Childcare Working Group Briefing Paper August 2013 Revised November 2013 “Currently, I have no childcare and I am missing classes and my grades are reflecting this.” “I couldn’t afford childcare, so my son went to live with my mom.” “I have missed classes while waiting for the daycare centre to open. I would say that the stresses of daycare has caused my marks to fall. I have also dropped classes to work with my daycare schedule.” “I have missed classes … also, I have to drive out of my way (20 minutes) to pick up/drop her off .. this costs me $ in gas and time.” “A few times I had to bring my child to class and am very thankful I had nice professors” “My partner had to lower their course load and periodically takes a term off, as we have no childcare.” “…would help employee retention rates and increase job performance/satisfaction. I fully believe that a lack of access to appropriate childcare could result in the necessity for me to resign from my position at the end of my maternity leave” “it is astonishing that a workplace of this size provides little or no support for parents with children” 1 Summary: The Working Group has identified that there is a shortfall of access to childcare spaces on the Fort Garry, Bannatyne, Thompson and William Norrie campuses. By our very conservative estimates, UM has approximately 3,210 student parents, 3481 continuing/ permanent faculty parents, and 1,101 parents who are members of the staff (continuing/ permanent). For all four campuses, there are 128 spaces in 3 facilities (16 in PlayCare, 60 in Campus Day Care at the Fort Garry campus and 52 in Makoonsag on the Selkirk campus).

    GLOBAL CERTIFICATE PROGRAM FOR REGULATORS OF SECURITIES MARKETS December 3-7, 2018 Harvard Law School, Cambridge, MA ~ 1 ~ ~ 2 ~ Welcome from Professor Hal Scott Welcome to Harvard Law School! The Program on International Financial Systems (PIFS) is honored to be hosting you for Phase II of the Global Certificate Program (GCP). We have created a diverse program that will be taught by prominent and experienced speakers from academia, industry, and government. Phase II serves as the culmination of your GCP educational experience. During this week, experts will teach you about critically important regulatory issues. Topics that you will be exposed to include: issues in criminal and civil enforcement; the development and role of FinTech and RegTech; corporate governance; systemic risk; initial coin offerings; cross- border regulatory coordination; market supervision; and the evolution and role of public and private capital markets. We hope that whether these are new and emerging issues for you, or ones that you already think about deeply, you will be able to use what you learn this week to confront and address future regulatory challenges faced by your jurisdiction. My team at PIFS is ready and eager to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. Please do not hesitate to ask them for assistance. I look forward to meeting you and thank you for choosing to join us. Sincerely, HAL S. SCOTT Emeritus Nomura Professor, Harvard Law School and President, PIFS 1 Harvard Law School Library, Langdell Hall Harvard Law School at a glance: 1817 Year the School was founded 2 Alumni presidents of the United States 1 Rank in the 2017 QS World University Rankings 16 Alumni/ae U.S.

    J.L. Granatstein THE WEIGHT OF COMMAND Voices of Canada’s Second World War Generals and Those Who Knew Them Sample Material © UBC Press 2016 Studies in Canadian Military History Series editor: Andrew Burtch, Canadian War Museum The Canadian War Museum, Canada’s national museum of military history, has a threefold mandate: to remember, to preserve, and to educate. Studies in Canadian Military History, published by UBC Press in association with the Museum, extends this mandate by presenting the best of contemporary scholarship to provide new insights into all aspects of Canadian military history, from earliest times to recent events. The work of a new generation of scholars is especially encouraged, and the books employ a variety of approaches – cultural, social, intellectual, economic, political, and comparative – to investigate gaps in the existing historiography. The books in the series feed immediately into future exhibitions, programs, and outreach efforts by the Canadian War Museum. A list of the titles in the series appears at the end of the book.
