Wilfrid Laurier University Wilfrid Laurier University CEREMONIES FOR THE INSTALLATION OF PRESIDENT LORNA MARSDEN AND FALL CONVOCATION October 25, 1992 KITCHENER MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM KITCHENER, ONTARIO The Convocation Ceremony Convocation is the most solemn ceremony within the university community. Since their beginnings in the Middle Ages, universities have performed this ceremony in order to grant degrees to their students and also to welcome those students into the community of scholars which has trained them . The conferring of the degree takes place at the moment when the student places his or her hands within those of the Chancellor, the President, or other conferring officers of the University and the officer says I admit you . As an outward sign of his or her new state, the student is hooded by a member of faculty. Each degree within a university has a hood of unique colours and trim in order that the student's status may be recognized"indeed every university guards its own set of hoods from use by any other university. In order to recognize the nature of this event for the students involved, the University asks that parents and friends of the students participating in this ceremony withhold their applause until all members being admitted to each degree have left the dais. Wilfrid Laurier University Mace The mace was officially presented to the University by the Euler family at the Fall Convocation, 1963, in memory of the Hon . Senator W.D. Euler, the first Chancellor of the University. It weighs 16 pounds and was manufactured by the firm of Henry Birks Limited, Montreal. The ferrule near the base of the shaft contains ivory from a walrus tusk obtained from Coral Harbour, Northwest Territories. The 1O-sided shaft, representing the 10 provinces, merges into the head of the mace which bears the 10 provincial crests. The wood used at the point where the shaft meets the head of the mace is elm taken from the bannister post of Conrad Hall , the original Seminary Building. Above this are four crests relating to the history of the Institution : a crest of Waterloo County, the Luther Coat of Arms, the crest of Waterloo Lutheran Seminary, and the Coat of Arms of the University of Western Ontario. The head of the mace is made of maple and bears the Federal Coat of Arms which is above the monogram of Queen Elizabeth II , during whose reign the University's Charter was granted. On the reverse side is the crest of Wilfrid Laurier University and the monogram of King George V during whose reign the original Charter was granted in 1910. The top of the mace is a crown , mounted with jewels, symbolizing the authority of the State. Order of Proceedings Members of the Convocation will rise at the sound of the fanfare and will remain standing until after the Invocation.

    From “friendly relations” to differential fees: A history of international student policy in Canada since World War II by Dale M.

McCartney, 2020 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, the dissertation entitled: From “friendly relations” to differential fees: A history of international student policy in Canada since World War II submitted by Dale M. McCartney in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Studies Examining Committee: Amy Scott Metcalfe, Educational Studies Co-supervisor Jason Ellis, Educational Studies Co-supervisor Donald Fisher, Educational Studies Supervisory Committee Member Lesley Andres, Educational Studies University Examiner Steven Hugh Lee, History University Examiner ii Abstract This dissertation examines the development of policy related to international undergraduate students in Canada since the end of the Second World War. It draws on archival materials from the federal, British Columbia, and Ontario governments, and seven institutions: the University of Toronto, Carleton University, Wilfrid Laurier University, Seneca College, the University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, and Kwantlen Polytechnic University. The dissertation unearths the initial proto-policies developed by non-governmental agencies that provided services for international students, and examines how the priorities of these service groups were inherited by institutions as the organizations were formally incorporated into universities and colleges.

  • Irreconcilable Differences: the Corporatization of Canadian Universities
    Irreconcilable Differences: The Corporatization of Canadian Universities by Jamie Brownlee A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology (Specialization in Political Economy) Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Jamie Brownlee Abstract To date, there has yet to be a comprehensive national study of university corporatization in Canada. This study addresses this gap by reviewing the empirical basis, history, root causes and evolution of the transformation of higher education in Canada that has taken place over the past four decades. In this research, “corporatization” is used to refer to the process and resulting outcomes of the ascendance of business interests, values and models in the university system. Throughout the study, my two primary questions of interest are: (i) how has the corporatization of Canadian universities taken shape?; and (ii) what are the consequences of this restructuring both for higher education and society at large? The study begins with a brief historical review of the relationship between education and various sources of power, as well as some of the competing perspectives that have been used to explain university restructuring. I then review the main manifestations of the corporatization process, beginning with a detailed analysis of the casualization of academic labour. Drawing on a new and unique dataset collected through access to information requests, I provide a detailed account of the rise in the number of part-time and full-time contractually limited appointments in a number of Ontario institutions and discuss some of the impacts of this change.

The beauty and simplicity of the maple leaf can only be realized through this common purpose of nature.
