Attention was drawn to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Irwin Davis Prize. It was noted that the title of Commerce 337 should read Land Law not Real Estate Law. It was also pointed out that in the description of the Matthew J. Waterman Prize, Oral Pathology should read Oral Biology. In response to a guery as to how recipients are to be selected for the Clark, Wilson Service Scholarship and the Alexander, Holburn, Beaudin & Lang Service Scholarship, it was explained that there are several service scholarships available in the Faculty of Law and that the Faculty selects the top twenty students eligible for these awards. The twenty firms that are involved in giving these awards are also involved in interviewing the students and a match is then established between the student and the appropriate firm. However, the initial selection is made by the Faculty of Law. In response to a query concerning the University of B.C. Alumni Southern California Scholarship, Dr. Williams confirmed that the award could be made to a student on admission or in any year of university. However, it would only be given to a 4th year student if that student were continuing for a further year and whose home is in Southern California or in the United States. The motion was put and carried. 8956. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate (continued) Tributes Committee In response to a query raised at the January 21, 1987 meetinq of Senate concerninq clarification of the difference between deferring a degree and declining a degree, Dr. Dennison stated that the Tributes Committee had discussed this question and concluded that if a person declined it meant they refused to accept, and if a person deferred, the committee assumed this meant to put off acceptance until a future time. Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates Dr. Dennison, Chairman of the Committee, presented the following report, which had been circulated: "Background At the November 12, 1986 meeting of Senate, a motion was passed which instructed the Tributes Committee to prepare a report proposing alterations to the current procedures for the selection of candidates for honorary degrees. Further, the Tributes Committee was requested to examine the general eligibility criteria and to consider a procedure by which Senate would receive a brief curriculum vitae on each candidate for an honorary degree. At the January 21, 1987 meeting of Senate, an interim report was presented by the Tributes Committee which included a number of possible approaches to the procedures. Following comments and advice expressed on the floor of Senate, and the receipt of written submissions from Senators, the Tributes Committee met to prepare a final report. This report is presented in three parts: (a) the criteria used in selecting nominations for an honorary degree, (b) the composition of the Tributes Committee, and (c) the procedures used in presenting the names of candidates to Senate. 1. Criteria The Committee has heard very few comments respecting the current criteria. In general, it is felt that these criteria, approved by Senate, are broad enough to allow for an adequate ranqe of potential candidates to qualify for nomination. 8957. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates '1. Criteria (continued) The current criteria read as follows: The award of an honorary degree is a recognition by The University of British Columbia of distinguished achievement or of outstanding service. Nominees should be distinguished scholars, creative artists, public servants, persons prominent in the community and the professions, and others who have made significant contributions to the life of the University, the Province, or nationally or internationally. The overriding criteria for the award of an honorary degree should be excellence, eminence, and accomplishment. Recommendation 1: The Tributes Committee recommends that the current criteria for the award of an honorary degree be reaffirmed. II. The Tributes Committee The Committee agrees with several suggestions from Senate members that the Tributes Committee should be enlarged to include greater representation from Senate. In its discussion, the Committee agreed that an additional five members of Senate should be appointed to the Committee. The addition of five individuals to the Tributes Committee will raise the membership to seventeen, which is approximately twenty percent of the total membership of Senate. With respect to the "constituents" from which the additional members should come, the Committee felt that the Nominating Committee of Senate should make this decision in the light of the backgrounds and expertise of Senate members as a whole. Recommendation 2: The Committee recommends that the membership of the Tributes Committee be increased by five. The Nominating Committee should be responsible for determining the composition of the new Tributes Committee. 8958. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates (continued) " III. The Procedures for Reporting and Recommending Honorary Degree Candidates to Senate The Committee was made aware that a range of opinion is held by Senate members as to how the present procedures might be changed to ensure that Senate is properly prepared before it votes on the selection of candidates for honorary degrees. Most Senate members recognize that confidentiality is paramount, given the fact that individuals are being considered without their knowledge and that circulation of papers containing the names of candidates prior to the final vote involves a risk of premature disclosure before the decisions of Senate are taken. The consequences could be embarrassing to the individual or the University. Nevertheless, some members of Senate have urged that much greater information and prior notification about proposed honorary degree candidates are necessary if Senate is to play its proper role in the process. The Committee believes that a reasonable compromise is possible and recommends the following procedure. Recommendation 3: That at the Senate meeting at which the honorary degree candidates are presented for approval, an in-camera session be called at the completion of regular business, or at 9.30 p.m., whichever is the earlier. At this time, members of Senate will be provided with background information on the proposed candidates for degrees as recommended by the Tributes Committee. A period of time sufficient to allow adequate review of the information will be given before the Chairman of Senate calls the closed meeting to order and invites the Chairman of the Tributes Committee to propose the formal motion that the list of candidates be approved. Finally, given that a new Senate will be established in the coming Fall, the Committee makes the following recommendation. Recommendation 4: The Committee recommends that the changes presented in this report be adopted for use after September, 1987." Recommendation 1. Dr. Dennison ) That the current criteria for the award Mrs. Fulton ) of an honorary degree be reaffirmed. In response to a query, Dr. Dennison stated that the Tributes Committee had a policy of not offering degrees to active Canadian 8959. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates Recommendation 1. (continued) politicians and others, such as active members of granting councils. However, people who had retired from these positions and had made a significant contribution were certainly included within the realm of possibilities. He did not, however, think this policy should be included in the criteria. The motion was put and carried. Recommendation 2. Dr. Dennison ) That the membership of the Tributes Committee Dr. Goldberg ) be increased by five. The Nominating Committee should be responsible for determining the composition of the new Tributes Committee. Dr. Spencer pointed out that reference to the Nominating Committee was unnecessary since the role of that committee is to nominate the members for all Senate committees. In amendment: Dr. Spencer ) That the sentence "The Nominating Committee Dr. Birch ) should be responsible for determining the composition of the new Tributes Committee." be deleted. Carried In response to a query as to whether the Committee had considered restricting the number of terms a member of Senate could serve on the Tributes Committee, Dr. Dennison stated that the ex-officio members (the Chancellor, President, Registrar and Director of Ceremonies) are permanent members of all Senate committees and that the membership of the Tributes Committee and all Senate committees is reconstituted by the Nominating Committee every three years. 8960. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates Recommendation 2. (continued) In amendment: Mr. Mustard ) That at least one more student be included in Mr. Hancock ) the membership of the Tributes Committee. It was again pointed out that it was the responsibility of the Nominating Committee to make recommendations for the membership of Senate committees and that all members of Senate would have an opportunity to make suggestions through their elected representatives on that Committee. The amendment was lost. The motion, which had been amended to read "That the membership of the Tributes Committee be increased by five.", was put and carried. Recommendation 3. Dr. Dennison ) That at the Senate meeting at which the Dr. Tennant ) honorary degree candidates are presented for approval, an in-camera session be called at the completion of regular business, or at 9.30 p.m., whichever is the earlier. At this time, members of Senate will be provided with background information on the proposed candidates for degrees as recommended by the Tributes Committee. A period of time sufficient to allow adequate review of the information will be given before the Chairman of Senate calls the closed meeting to order and invites the Chairman of the Tributes Committee to propose the formal motion that the list of candidates be approved. 8961. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates Recommendation 3. (continued) In amendment: Ms. Arthur ) That the word "the" be deleted from line 7 Mr. Williamson ) in the first paragraph of the motion. Ms. Arthur explained that by deleting the word "the", the Tributes Committee would be presenting to Senate information on proposed candidates, which Senate would then look at, and Senate would determine the list of candidates for degrees. Dr. Spencer pointed out that whether the word was deleted or not was irrelevant as long as the words "as recommended by the Tributes Committee" remained. The amendment was lost. Dr. Spencer asked if the intent of the recommendation was that Senate would vote yes or no on the list, or did the procedure contain within it the possibility that Senate might delete one or more names from the list and vote on the remainder, and also, could names be added to the list. Dr. Dennison stated that the Tributes Committee had decided that the names would be put forward as a slate on the understanding that it is within the powers of Senate, if they choose, to vote seriatim. This would require a vote of Senate and, if approved, that procedure can be adopted. However, since the list from the Tributes Committee represents the Committee's final proposals, no further names would be added. 8962. March 18, 1987 Reports of Committees of Senate Tributes Committee Honorary Degrees - report on revised procedures for the selection of candidates Recommendation 3. (continued) Dr. Gaskell felt that the procedures outlined in recommendation 3. would not provide Senate with the kind of information needed to make an informed decision on candidates for honorary degrees and, further, that the recommendation did not allow enough time for Senate to look at the material and make a decision that same evening. Speaking in favour of recommendation 3, Dr. Goldberg felt that the Tributes Committee was the appropriate body to provide Senate with as much information as possible concerning the candidates for honorary degrees and that, under the revised procedures, more background information would be available than had been in the past and also there would be additional time for Senate to review the material provided by the Committee. In amendment: Professor Pavlich ) That the words "...the list of..." Ms. Arthur ) be deleted from the second paragraph of the motion. Lost The motion to approve recommendation 3. was put and carried. Recommendation 4. Dr. Dennison ) The Committee recommends that the Dr. Evans ) changes presented in this report be adopted for use after September 1, 1987. Carried 8963.
