Eaton Call to Order The Chair of Senate, Dr Santa J. Ono, called the fifth regular meeting of the Vancouver Senate for the 2017/2018 Academic Year to order at 6:04 pm. Senate Membership NEW MEMBER The Registrar announced the appointment of Mr J. Maximillian Holmes, Student Member At- Large, and the election of Dr Mahesh Upadhyaya, Faculty Representative for Land and Food Systems, to Senate until 31 March 2018 and 31 August 2020 respectively. NOMINATING COMMITTEE The Registrar announced a vacancy on the Senate Nominating Committee has been filled by Mr Michael Wong. 2017-05-1 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate w Minutes of 13 December 2017 Anthony Sheppard } That the Minutes of the Meeting of 13 December Jakob Gattinger 2017 be adopted as corrected. Corrections: Dr Shepherd's name is misspelt as Sheppard. Approved as Corrected Remarks from the Chair Dr Ono thanked the campus community for the past year of effort on the Strategic Plan, in particular Professor Emma Cunliff for her early work, the steering committee, and the hundreds of people who participated in the process and had their work integrated into the plan through the work of the offices of the Provost and the Vice-President Research and Innovation. In review of how Dr Toope presented the strategic plan, Dr Ono said he appreciated the approach taken and would like to proceed similarly and allow for review and comments at one Senate meeting, then a month later return with feedback received in the interim and with a request for formal endorsement from Senate. Senator Schneider said that he admired the work in the planning process and suggested reconsidering the plan title of "Inspire". His concern is that we don't need to highlight the obvious. We have already been inspiring. He opined that inspire seemed like a buzzword that was present in many strategic plans and he asked if UBC could have something tangible, aspirational, and unique. Senator A. MacDougall expressed a concern with the metrics used on page 63 suggesting that they could be more specific. Dr Ono noted that once there was an endorsement of the high level plan we will work on how to implement it and can better define metrics at that time. The provost said that there were a large variety of metrics already tracked. We are open to suggestions on what we should be measuring and projects when developed will have their own metrics. Senator A. MacDougall explained that her key concern was how matters of student wellbeing were evaluated. 2017-05-2 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate 9 Senator Holmes said that with many strategies mentioned affordability was only mentioned twice and mental health only once; along with open access. He lamented that there were not more specific strategies focusing on these areas and asked if we were looking at ways of approaching those issues. Dr Ono said yes it would. Senator Thachuk said that the dashboard came across as too specific or definite. He suggested more flexibility. In terms of format, he suggested an executive summary. One strategy in particular that concerned him was program redesign and a shift to outcomes rather than credit hours. The Provost said that this proposal came from the Faculty of Arts which was already working towards increasing flexibility. The basic idea is to move away from thinking of a degree as a collection of credits from specific places instead moving to thinking in terms of broader competencies that we would like students to develop in the course of their studies. In engineering, his own discipline, we have a strict accreditation regime that would make this impossible so we do recognize that we cannot pursue this easily in all areas. Senator Thachuk said that it was too definite right now. It needs to be explored or consider where possible but not be a simple decision for everyone. The President agreed. Senator Gattinger asked if strategy 5 could be done more transformational rather than transactional. He suggested that fact-based decision-making should be more integrated throughout the report. Senator Doering noted the length and the need for an executive summary. He noted that much of the text was not strategy but discussion of current activities. Dr Ono said that the danger with removing that narrative is that it disregards what we already do as our core mission. Previous plans did not recognize our core mission sufficiently. Senator Doering agreed that it was important to affirm what we already did but that things like the snapshots seemed extraneous. Dr Ono said that there are multiple audiences for these documents and one important group is the provincial government who may not know what we are already doing so there is utility in including such material in the overall document. 2017-05-3 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate 9 Senator Doering noted strategy 17 (Indigenous Engagement) is worthwhile but earlier in the plan we say we want indigeneity woven through the plan. He suggests that it would be good moving forward to flush out more of the next aboriginal plan so that it can be included in a high level. Dr Ono said that we weren't yet at a stage where that could be done and we don't want to delay this process too much, so it is an issue of timing. He suggested that we couldn't yet have that level of detail. Senator Wang noted that Strategy 15 (Student Experience) didn't fully respect all of the aspects of the student experience. It does a good job of highlighting academics but it does not have enough of extracurricular activities such as leadership opportunities. Senator Brar said that all of the student matters being focused in strategy 15 was not preferable and that this should be integrated more into other aspects of the plan. Senator Singh said that undergraduate research experience needs to be strengthened, as this would open new opportunities for students. We needed support for staff and equipment and there is some from the Faculty this needs to be supported by the university at a high level for the infrastructure. Dr Ono agreed but felt this would be better in an implementation plan. Senator Singh suggested that student safety and a safe campus needed to be considered. He asked how can UBC become a leader in having a secure campus. Dr Ono said that we have invested a great deal of effort and are committed to continuing efforts on sexual assault prevention and other challenges facing students and others at UBC. Senator Murphy suggested that international engagement should be moved higher as an objective and suggested that this document that focused on problem solving did not give sufficient consideration of the humanities. Senator Kindler asked if he could situate the strategic plan more in our contemporary history, noting that civility was declining, and authoritarianism is on the rise globally. She asked if we had an opportunity, writing this plan now, to be clear on how UBC is engaging and will engage with this moment in history. Academia is often accused of being disengaged; this gives us an opportunity to show our relevance. Dr Ono said that he agreed. We do have to be careful not to point fingers but it is a fact that our students agree that the state of the world is not healthy. Senator Doering asked if feedback was not incorporated could a rationale why be provided. 2017-05-4 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate w Dr Ono agreed. Dr Ono thanked everyone for their comments and committed to bringing a revised plan back for endorsement the next senate. Awards Committee The Chair of the Senate Awards Committee, Dr Lawrence Burr, presented. See Appendix A: Awards Report Approved Lawrence Burr } That Senate accept the awards as listed and Max Holmes forward them to the Board of Governors for approval; and that letters of thanks be sent to the donors. Dr Forwell noted that her department was getting an award but she wasn't informed. Dr Burr agreed to bring communication as an issue to the Development staff. Senator Haffey asked why the Strategic Management Scholarship was being revised instead of being discontinued and a new Katja Pecarevic Memorial MBA Bursary being created. Mr Eaton replied that it was administratively easier to change an award rather than discontinuing and create a new one. Approved Nominating Committee 2017-05-5 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate w The Vice-Chair of the Senate Nominating Committee, Dr Anna Kindler, presented. APPOINTMENT TO A PRESIDENT'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR THE EXTENSION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE REGISTRAR Anna Kindler } That Senate appoint Dr Paul G Harrison, Blye Frank Department of Botany, to the President's Advisory Committee for the Extension of the Appointment of the Registrar. Approved NAME, TERMS OF REFERENCE, AND COMPOSITION OF AN AD-HOC COMMITTEE ON DIVERSITY See Appendix B: Ad-hoc Committee on Academic Diversity and Inclusivity Anna Kindler } That Senate establish an Ad-hoc Committee on Susan Forwell Academic Diversity and Inclusivity with the terms of reference and composition as set out below. Dr Kindler advised that the Committee considered feedback from the Senate from senators and others. In considering the recommendation, the Committee considered the bicameral nature of the university and a desire to focus on academic work. Secondly, the Committee found it helpful to focus on multiple aspects of diversity. The Committee received feedback on both having tangible goals in the terms of reference and a functional timeline for the committee's work. Senator Gattinger noted that suggested committee size was quite large. He hoped for a robust committee that could get work done. He also suggested that going for a standard 50% quorum may pose difficulties. Dr Kindler replied that they wanted a diversity of ideas present so the size was recommended to have sufficient people to make that possible. Senator Holmes echoed the concerns with size and suggested that a student be a non-senate member. AMENDMENT; COMMITTEE SIZE AND STUDENT MEMBERS 2017-05-6 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate 9 Marium Hamid } That the number of non-senate members of the Max Holmes committee be reduced from 5 to 3, one of whom of whom must be a student. Senator Krebs agreed that non-senate students should participate but said that non-senators were important for diversity of opinion. The senate is a good representative of UBC but is a select group and this committee should be much more open. Having 5/12 members of the Committee be non-members opens it up to the campus community. Senator Haffey noted that we would be going to an even number overall. Senator Gattinger said that they would prefer a smaller committee because a lot of the committees work could come from existing reports and recommendations and that his committee should exist more for action. Senator Thachuk supported the Nominating Committee's proposal as made. Senator Marshall suggested that in his past experience more members was preferable. There is a sense of ownership that comes from actually being a committee member. Some of the issues in the past were that people tried to do these things outside of Senate and they were not successful as a result. Senator Pratt said that if the purpose is to increase the amount of ideas discussed a larger group made sense but he also suggested that the committee may be functionally difficult with a larger group of members. By general consent, the amended was divided so as to consider the size of the committee separately from the addition of a requirement for non-senate student membership. Senator Holmes suggested that a small compact group was important for its success and this was unlikely to affect the diversity of views as those would likely be considered regardless. Senator Krebs said that she understood the student's perspective of focusing on actionable strategies, but for that to be inclusive and diverse you needed n diverse environment around the table to do so and having non-senators present helped that conversation. AMENDMENT: COMMITTEE SIZE 2017-05-7 UBC W THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate Marium Hamid } That the number of non-senate members of the Max Holmes committee be reduced from 5 to 3. Not Approved NB: Senator Gattinger voted in favour of the amendment. AMENDMENT: NON-STUDENT MEMBERS Marium Hamid } That at least one non-student member of the Max Holmes committee must be a student. AMENDMENT TO AMENDMENT: NUMBER OF NON-STUDENT MEMBERS. Kevin Doering } To strike one and replace place it with two. Michael Pratt Amendment to Amendment Approved Amendment Approved Senator Thorne said that a committee of any size will not represent the full diversity of UBC and a committee of any size must represent all voices at UBC. Senator Forwell asked what was meant by intellectual diversity. She asked if this was diversity of ideas or intellectual disability. Approved as Amended Report from the Provost 2017-05-8 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate 9 2017 REPORT ON ENROLMENT The Provost, Dr Andrew Szeri, presented. In summary, he noted that this was a very successful year for UBC's enrolment. Dr Szeri set out the strategic undergraduate enrolment initiatives. For domestic students, we are trying increase representation from across BC by connecting with secondary schools across the province. For aboriginal students, we are working closely with community partners and many faculties had their own programs. For international students our five priority areas are the United States, the Middle East, Africa, South East Asia and South America. There is greater emphasis on eRecruitment in places we do not visit personally. Finally, the Province is catching up with UBC on youth aging out of care. Senator Singh noted the flat enrolment of domestic students with a 10-15% increase in international. Is that rate sustainable over the next 5 years? There is a perception in the community that this is done at the cost of local students, particularly in certain faculties and schools. In popular media there is a contention that our enrolment strategy is at the expense of domestic. How do we correct this view? Dr Szeri said that we do have a domestically-funded target and we exceed that by around 10%. There are two parallel admissions processes that do not place international and domestic applicants in competition for the same seats. Dr Sigh said that if the enrolment of international student continues at this rate we will have roughly parity in student numbers and a majority international in some faculties and schools. Dr Szeri reminded Dr Singh that enrolment targets will be debated at the next meeting of Senate and we are seeing a leveling out in most faculties; however, the overall number will increase still in subsequent years due to multi-year degrees. Senator Isaacson noted the PHD completion rate; a long standing issue. He asked if this was improving or degrading. Dean Porter said that it was steady. The rate is similar across Canada and we're only 2 months longer than the Canadian average. Senator Isaacson noted that we have tried various initiatives over the years to reduce that; have those had an impact? Dr Porter said no they have not. 2017-05-9 UBC THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Officeof the Senate 9 The Chancellor noted that 2.9% aboriginal students was representative of the local community but UBC served more than just Vancouver. 5% ofBC was indigenous. We also need to be clear in our diction between aboriginal and indigenous. He noted that 2100 of our incoming students were transfer students. He heard comments that it was easier to transfer from local colleges than it was between campuses of UBC and asked this were true. The Registrar replied that it wasn't more difficult but that it wasn't transparent enough. We are working to make it more transparent. The issue was generally more one of competitiveness. Senator Hamid asked about the drop in yield rate. Dr Szeri replied that students tended to apply to more institutions these days, but that this was a small fluctuation. Senator Holmes asked what the cost was for exceeding the government funded target. Dr Szeri said that his wasn't cost per se but a sign of our zeal and support for domestic enrolment. Senator Holmes noted the decrease in retention rates. Dr Szeri said that this was a small fluctuation well within norms. Senator Koehoorn noted the different in FTE vs Headcount being different at UBCV vs UBCO and asked if that was a reflection in the difference or challenges in living in Vancouver or Okanagan. The Registrar said that lower course loads is not unique to UBC Vancouver. We can look more into that. Part of that may be the program mix and how they calculate their FTEs. Senator Harrison said that retention rates were look at carefully by advisors and that the success of every student matters. He said that this was a very well developed report that was an improvement on past years. He commended those who produced it. Dr Ross noted that a large group were involved in production of the report across both campuses. It has taken 4 years to get to this level of reporting. Dr Szeri noted that more modern SISs were being used by universities to try to identify students at risk and try to help them. We hoped to do the same. 2016-2017 REPORT ON EXTERNAL REVIEWS 2017-05-10 UBC THE UNIVERSITYOF BRITISH COLUMBIA Office of the Senate w Dr Eich outlined the 8 reviews done over the past year. Senate requires that 2 years after an external review that a report be provided to the Dean and Secretary on progress. The Provost's office now also requests a copy.
