Faculty tackle job of making goals real force for excellence

More than 80 faculty spent an intensive Saturday, April 8, trying to turn the rhetoric of the University’s two-year-old "goals for planning" into real measures that will strengthen research, teaching and the overall quality of the U of S.

Pact promotes exchanges ‘down under’

The many Aboriginal justice issues shared by Canada, Australia and New Zealand are the impetus behind a new agreement that will expand academic interaction and promote student and faculty exchanges between the U of S and two of its counterparts "down under".

Plans being made for College Bldg. restoration

With potential funding sources on the horizon, the U of S is proceeding with plans to renovate the College Building – the 88-year-old heritage landmark on campus that has been closed since November 1997 because of its dangerous state of repair.

Fourth-year U of S nursing students walk past a building at the Omayal Achi College of Nursing, in Chennai, southern India, during their practicum there Jan. 27-March 20. From left, students Lily Kampman, Meagan Hiebert, Shannon Bandura, Cherie Boese, Heather Wiebe and Jackie Springer walk with U of S faculty facilitator Joanne Gartner (Clinical Placement Co-ordinator in the College of Nursing), and an unidentified Indian nursing student. For an account of what the students told their third-year fellow students when they got home, see the related story and photo. Photo courtesy of Joanne Gartner
