Calendar Committee - progress report and Recommendation on
Schedule of Dates for 1999/2000
Date: ?
21 October, 1998
SCAR received a report from the Registrar and Dean of Student Services, Mr. Ron
Heath on the establishment of a Calendar Committee. Mr. Heath supported the
establishment of such a Committee and the proposed membership was tentatively
approved by SCAR. It was agreed that the proposal should be developed in more
detail, and to that end, Mr. Heath was asked to prepare Terms of Reference and
reporting structure for the Committee that will be considered at the next meeting of
SCAR. The intent is to have this included as an agenda item for the December
meeting of Senate and thereafter, to establish the Committee as quickly as possible.
It seems clear that it was the wish of Senate that matters relating to the scheduling
. ?
for the academic year should be referred to this Committee. However, there is a
pressing need to identify the schedule of dates for the 1999/2000 academic year (99-3,
2000-1 and 2000-2) and make them widely available to the University community.
SCAR supported the recommendation to forward the proposed schedule of dates for
1999/2000 to Senate for approval at this time. The schedule for 2000/2001 will be
held until it can be presented to the (proposed - subject to approval) calendar
committee.
Mr. Heath reported that the schedule of dates proposed for 1999/2000 conforms to
Senate policies in the Fall Semester. The 2000-1 Semester includes a two day reading
break at the end of week six of the semester but the two days are added to the start of
the semester so there is no reduction in class time resulting from the reading break.
In both cases, the days involved are Thursday and Friday. The Summer 2000-2
Semester is typical of Summer Semester schedules.
SCAR therefore recommends to Senate:
Motion
that the Schedule of Dates for the academic year 1999/2000 (99-3, 2000-1 and
2000-2) as recommended by the Registrar and set out in the attached
S
?
documentation be approved by Senate.
