Proposed Revisions - Constitution and Bylaws

The Association has been working over the past year on a significant revision to the constitution and bylaws. You will find below links to the reports outlining the revisions to these documents. Each document begins with an outline of each recommended change (with original text, revised text and context) and then a motion from the Executive Council and the full text of the new constitution or bylaws respectively.

The report will be presented for information and discussion at the Annual General Meeting and a vote will be conducted concurrently with the general elections for the Association.

There may be typographical changes to this document prior to the vote. A final version will be available to be viewed at the polling station.

The UWFA News - May 2009

We’ve just posted the most recent issue of the UWFA News. In this issue, you’ll find articles on everything from Salem Bland’s academic freedom issue in 1917 to the current University budget issues. Also, we’ve republished the report of the President to the Annual General Meeting. For the charts relating to Michael Hohner’s Library piece, see below.

You’ll also find posted below the UWFA Scholarship and Bursary Fund Donation form. More information in this program is in this issue of the UWFA News. We strongly encourage all of our members to donate.

You may notice that there is a word missing from the end of the article “UW Faculty and their Student Loans”. The article should end on the next line, and the missing word is ‘worry’.

Comments, questions and submissions to the next UWFA News can be sent to uwfa@uwinnipeg.ca. The next issue of the UWFA News is scheduled to come out in September.
