June 2011 Monthly Report

1. Student Legislative Council MeetingsSLC 69/03 June 7, 2011

VP Operations & Finance Patrick Straw gave a presentation on the budgetand took a number of questions. This budget is not all that dissimilar fromthe 2010 budget I voted on last June. A few small changes needed to bemade, but once again the SU is committed to a balanced budget, with anyprofit generated being re-allocated to next year.

We received an extensive presentation of student committees by VPAcademic Ola Mohajer. The focus was on the two meetings to be voted on

later in the meeting: Clubs Committee and Nominations Committee. SLC debated and chose the following council members for the

Nominations Committee: Bobby Michaud, John McDonald, Kelsy Norman,Sarah Nasser & Michael Mahoney.

SLC also debated and selected members to clubs committee: RaphaelJacob, Myself, Ben Cannon, Jack Siu, Michelle Huie, and Sarah Nasser. Ilook forward to working with Mr. Siu (who sat on the committee last year),and the new members.

I was absent for this meeting due to employment obligations. Having

attended faculty council early on the same day, I needed to recover thehours in the evening.

2. Faculty Work (and connecting with constituents)

I continue to be available via twitter and facebook for student concerns. Ihave had a number of conversations this month regarding registrationissues.

3. Committee WorkHaskayne Faculty Council (June 21st, 2011):

This was a short-notice ad-hoc faculty council. The only agenda item wasthe creation of a dean renewal committee. Current Haskayne dean

Leonard Waverman, has offered to renew his contract by one year(Current expiry is June 2012, it would be extended to June 2013). Thiswould allow him to see the new Strategic Plan, and AACSB renewalthrough to completion.

The committee was not, however, formed, as Council decided to delay thevote upon learning that this same committee would act as the DeanSearch Committee should they decline a renewal of Dr. Wavermanscontract.

The application deadline passed on June 15th. Myself & Ms. Nasser will

now begin selection of the Chair, and working with that chair, the directors The full committee should be formed in mid-July
