BERNARD E. RIEDEL\nThe Committee had circulated the following memorial minute for a former Senator who\nhad recently passed away.\nDr. Bernard E. Riedel\nDr. Riedel served with great distinction as the Dean of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences from 1967 until his retirement in December 1984 and Coordinator,\nHealth Sciences, from 1977 to 1984.\nAfter completing his undergraduate studies in 1943, Dr. Riedel joined the Royal\nCanadian Air Force during World War II, serving as Navigator Bombardier with\nthe Coastal Command. Upon discharge in 1946, he held the rank of Flying Officer.\nHe began his academic career soon thereafter as Lecturer and Assistant Professor,\nFaculty of Pharmacy at the University of Alberta, all the while pursuing his Master's degree. After completing doctoral studies at the University of Western\nOntario in 1953, Dr. Riedel returned to the University of Alberta as Assistant Professor and over a period of six years was promoted to Associate Professor, Full\nProfessor and Executive Assistant to the Vice-President.\nIn addition to leading the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at UBC, Dr. Riedel\nserved as a member of the Senate, Chair of the Senior Appointments Committee\n(1970-74; 1981-83) and as a member of numerous other committees. During his\ntenure, Faculty programs expanded to include doctoral degrees, Continuing Education and Clinical Pharmacy that served to train students for a patient-oriented\npractice of pharmacy.\nDr. Riedel also served as Director and President of the Canadian Foundation for\nthe Advancement of Pharmacy; Trustee, UBC Health Sciences Centre Hospital;\nand Trustee and President, Cancer Control Agency of British Columbia. Following retirement, he served as Executive Member, Board Member, Vice-President\nand President of the British Columbia Lung Association; Executive Member of\nthe Canadian Lung Association; Lrustee and Chairman of the British Columbia\nLransplant Society; and Member of the Science Advisory Committee of the British\nColumbia Health Research Foundation.\nFor his immense contributions, Dr. Riedel was recognized with several awards\nand distinctions, including the Canadian Forces Decoration (1960); Canadian\nCentennial Medal (1967); Doctor of Science, honoris causa, University of Alberta\n(1990); and the 75th Anniversary Medal, UBC (1990).

The Committee's role was to engage in discussion about\nfinancial decision making with the President, as well as the Provost, the Vice-President,\nFinance, Resources, & Operations, and the Comptroller, among others. The Committee had no financial decision making authority.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 UBC had an enormous economic footprint in the Province of British Columbia. The\ncombined operating budget for the two campuses was approximately $1 billion. This\ndid not include non-academic and ancillary activities, which brought the consolidated\nbudget to approximately $2 billion. Major capital amounted to nearly an additional $2\nbillion.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Over the previous several years, the administration had invested significant effort\ntoward making the budget process more transparent, and the budget itself more stable\nand easier to understand. Dr. Brander commended the administration for success in this\narea, as well as for handling some significant financial challenges. While the University\nwas not particularly wealthy, it was financially healthy and in a sustainable position,\nwhile continuing to enhance its academic performance. Few other universities had\nfared as well through the recent recession.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 The largest area of budgetary uncertainty was the operating grant from the provincial\ngovernment, which comprised $500 million of the $900-million operating budget at\nthe Vancouver campus. Tuition fees, which were controlled by the provincial government, made up an additional $300 million, meaning that most of the University's operating budget was derived either directly from the provincial government or indirectly\nfrom sources under government control.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 The new budget model allocated funds to faculties based on student enrolment. This\nreplaced allocation based on one-on-one negotiations with deans. While some negotiation remained necessary, the new system was much more transparent.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Some progress had been made toward addressing the historic under allocation of funds\nfor maintenance of new buildings. This created shortfalls that diverted money from the\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-141\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nFrom the Council of Senates, continued\nacademic mission of the University and made it difficult to attend to all building maintenance needs.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 The University was able to accommodate 27 percent of its full-time students in student\nresidence, but planned to increase capacity to approximately 35 percent. Dr. Brander\nwas of the opinion that this percentage was still too low, given the positive correlation\nbetween living on campus and a positive student experience and an enriched campus\nlife. Residences also generated significant amounts of revenue. For the first time, the\nUniversity would be able to offer a space to every student wanting to live on campus.\nThe University's ability to build new residences was limited by government regulations\non maximum debt, which made no exception for revenue-producing projects.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Fundraising efforts had increased and had been successful. The expense ratio was in the\nrange of 15 percent, which was normal for universities.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Following a reduction in the spend rate to three percent, the University's endowments\nwere recovering. Although some endowments remained under water, the University\nwas moving toward a sustainable position.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 The Committee had looked at the financial position of ancillary units, as well as the\nappropriate role of those units. One point of view was that ancillaries were service\nunits that should be subsidized as necessary. Others were of the opinion that they\nshould generate extra revenue to support the academic mission of the University. A\nthird view was that they should be maintained on a \"break-even\" basis. The Committee suggested that more discussion of this topic, including which ancillaries should fall\ninto each category, be facilitated in the following Senate triennium.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 The University was looking at ways to make more efficient use of the Vancouver campus during the summer. Higher occupancy levels in residences, for example, would contribute positively to the University's financial situation, particularly when combined\nwith increased numbers of international students.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 While individual Committee members had raised concerns and questions about specific\nfinancial decisions, the Committee was generally supportive of the administration's initiatives and processes. There were no high-level concerns.\nDISCUSSION\nIn response to a question from Dr. Knight about revenue from international tuition fees,\nDr. Brander noted that the University planned to increase international enrolment to comprise 15 percent of its student body.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-142\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nCandidates for Degrees and Diplomas\nThe Secretary had submitted for approval a list of 7229 candidates for degrees and diplomas.\nDr. Baimbridge l That the candidates for degrees and\nDr. Yaworsky J diplomas, as recommended by the Faculties\nand Schools, be granted the degrees and\ndiplomas for which they are recommended,\neffective May 2011, and that a committee\ncomposed of the Registrar, the appropriate\nDean, and the Chair of the Vancouver\nSenate be empowered to make any necessary\nadjustments.\nCarried\nunanimously.\nI\nAcademic Building Needs Committee\nCommittee Chair Dr. Sparks presented the report.\nANNUAL REPORT ON COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES\nThe Committee had circulated for information a report on its activities over the preceding\nacademic year. Dr. Sparks thanked his fellow Committee members and the secretariat. An\nexcerpt from the report follows:\nOverview\nThis document follows the reporting procedures initiated last fall (November 17,\n2010) of submitting a written annual summary to Senate of SABNC meetings and\nSABNC participation on the Property and Planning Advisory Committee (PPAC)\nso that individual consultations and building projects can be identified. In addition, the report points out opportunities for input into academic building policies\ncurrently being developed at UBC (see Comments section below).\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-143\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAcademic Building Needs Committee, continued\nCommittee work plan for 2010-11\nThe Committee agreed to continue following the priorities set out during the first\nyear of its triennium (May 13, 2009 Oral Report to Senate), namely to:\n1. Participate actively as voting members on the Property and Planning Advisory\nCommittee (PPAC)\n2. Engage in consultations & policy review and assist with policy development\nin three targeted areas relating to the Vancouver campus:\na. Accessibility\nb. Sustainability\nc. Planning processes, Senate consultation, communication\nd. Engage additional issues as they arise including land use and hub development\nActivities in 2010-11\nIn addition to hosting 7 Committee meetings, 5 with consultations, SABNC members collectively participated in 6 PPAC meetings and reviewed 11 presentations,\n4 that led to recommendations for capital projects, and 7 for information.\nDISCUSSION\nMr. Grajales suggested that a presentation on Open Science, Open Research, and Open\nAccess would be useful in the following triennium.\nDr. Hall wondered whether the University should consider a bicycle loan program, particular given the number of roads on campus being closed to vehicular traffic. There was\nsome discussion about a program operated by the Alma Mater Society, programs in place\nin other cities, pedestrian safety and increased bicycle traffic, as well as the impact of helmet laws.\nDr. Knight suggested that the Committee arrange for a presentation to Senate on learning\nspace design guidelines, including specific discussion of pedagogical philosophy.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-144\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAdmissions Committee\nCommittee Chair Dr. Fielding presented the reports.\nCANADIAN ABORIGINAL APPLICANTS\nThe Committee recommended for approval changes in admission requirements for Canadian Aboriginal applicants. Applicants would be able to self-identify upon application for\nadmission. A number of editorial changes were also included.\nMASTER OF JOURNALISM\nThe Committee recommended to Senate for approval changes in admission requirements\nfor applicants to the Master of Journalism program. Applicants would no longer be\nrequired to present an honours baccalaureate degree for admission. A number of editorial\nchanges were also included.\nMASTER OF FOOD AND RESOURCE ECONOMICS\nThe Committee recommended for approval changes in admission requirements for applicants to the Master of Food and Resource Economics program. Applicants would be permitted to present for admission a baccalaureate degree in Economics.\nMASTER OF SCIENCE IN HUMAN NUTRITION\nThe Committee recommended for approval changes in admission requirements for applicants to the Master of Science in Human Nutrition program.

Senate also delegated to the Committee the\nauthority to grant final approval of courses to be used in the calculation of an\nadmission average and published in the Calendar, with the proviso that all courses\nso approved meet the criteria specified by Senate.\nFor applicants following the BC/Yukon secondary school curriculum, an admission average is calculated on English 12 (or English 12 First Peoples) and three\nadditional approved Grade 12 courses or equivalent. To date, the Committee has\napproved three courses for inclusion in the calculation of an admission average.\nEffective for admission to the 2012 Winter Session, applicants may present Calculus 12, Economics 12 and Law 12 for inclusion in the calculation of an admission average.\nPOLICY J-50: SECONDARY SCHOOL GRADE ADJUSTMENTS FOR UNDERGRADUATE\nADMISSION TO THE UNIVERSITY\nThe Committee reported for information as follows:\nIn December 2009, Senate approved Policy J-50: Secondary School Grade Adjustments for Undergraduate Admission to the University. For the purposes of undergraduate direct-entry admission to the University, grades reported for secondary\nschool applicants outside of the BC/Yukon secondary school curricula may be\nadjusted to accurately assess those grades in terms of their ability to predict future\nperformance at the University.\nTo date, the policy has been applied to applicants following the Alberta secondary\nschool curriculum. For entry to the 2010 and 2011 Winter Sessions, grades presented for admission were adjusted upwards by two percent.\nUndergraduate Admissions is currently in the process of reviewing first-year academic performance of students admitted under the policy and will report its findings to the Committee.\nDr. Fielding thanked his fellow Committee members for their work over the preceding\nthree years. He also thanked Enrolment Services staff, particularly Ms. Rosalie Vlaar and\nMs. Amandeep Breen, for their support.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-148\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAppeals on Academic Standing Committee\nCommittee Chair Dr. Yaworsky presented the report.\nANNUAL REPORT ON COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES\nThe following is excerpted from the Committee's report for information.\nSenate has delegated to the Senate Committee on Appeals on Academic Standing\nthe authority to hear and dispose of student appeals from decisions of Faculties in\nmatters of academic standing. The Committee shall allow an appeal where it is\ndecided that the decision of the Faculty was arrived at through improper or unfair\nprocedures, and that as a result, a wrong decision on the merits has or may have\nbeen arrived at. However, the Committee has no jurisdiction where the sole question raised in an appeal turns on the exercise of academic judgment by a Faculty.\nThe decision of the Committee on an appeal is a final disposition of that appeal.\nThe Vancouver Senate has conferred on the Committee the power of making final\ndecisions pursuant to section 37(l)(b) of the University Act (reference: UBC Calendar, Academic Regulations, Senate Appeals on Academic Standing, section 2).\nStudents may also appeal to the Committee the refusal of the Registrar to extend\nthe time line for accepting an appeal, namely within 10 days of being informed in\nwriting of the Faculty's final decision.\nAs per section 39(a) of the Rules and Procedures of the Vancouver Senate, the\nCommittee is required to make an annual report to Senate, including the number\nof appeals heard, their disposition and the general nature of the appeals.\nSince last reporting to Senate in May 2010, 14 appeals proceeded to Committee\nhearings (as compared with eight in the prior year), of which three were allowed\nand 11 were dismissed.\nIn addition to the 14 appeals concluded, which are summarized below, the Committee has been advised that in the past year an additional 13 appeals were presented to the Registrar, of which two were resolved prior to a Committee hearing;\nthree were withdrawn by the appellant prior to a Committee hearing; six were\ndismissed by the Registrar due to lack of timely prosecution and two are in progress and are expected to be heard by the Committee in the upcoming weeks.\nTo provide for more hearing scheduling options for appellants and faculties, the\nCommittee appointed a Co-Chair.\nGeneral Observations\nThe Committee continues to draw to the attention of faculty and departments the\nimportance of following due process in all matters relating to student assessment,\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 149\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAppeals on Academic Standing Committee, continued\npromotion and appeal; of maintaining scrupulous records of course requirements,\ngrade schemes, and student performance; as well as drawing such regulations and\nrequirements to the attention of students.\nThe Committee has become aware of the differing processes of the faculties\nregarding the flagging of, and notification to students who are encountering academic problems, in order that the student be advised of the problematic, probationary or failing standing - even if the student has shifted e-mail accounts or if\nthe Faculty e-mail notifications are being filtered by the student computer mail\nservice as Junk or SPAM.\nThe Committee notes, for example, that the Faculty of Science has implemented\na protocol to address such challenges so as to ensure that the student is made\naware of issues related to their academic standing - student registration is blocked\nwhen on probation, and can only be unblocked after the student speaks to a Faculty advisor.\nWe would recommend that in order to avoid some of the challenges encountered\nin the rapidly evolving realm of communicating with students, that the appropriate Senate Committee - perhaps the Academic Policy Committee - consider if it is\nappropriate that communication protocols and safeguards be implemented by all\nUBC Faculties.\nDr.Yaworsky thanked his fellow Committee members for their work, noting that appeal\nhearings were often very long and required careful consideration. He commended the student members in particular, and thanked the secretariat for their support.\nCurriculum Committee\nCommittee member Dr. McKee presented the report.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-150\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nCurriculum Committee, continued\nCURRICULUM PROPOSALS FROM THE FACULTIES\nSee also Appendix A: Curriculum Summary\nDr. McKee l That the new and changed courses and\nDr. Loewen J programs brought forward by the Faculties\nof Arts, Applied Science, Commerce &\nBusiness Administration, Education,\nGraduate Studies (Applied Science, Arts,\nCollege for Interdisciplinary Studies,\nCommerce & Business Administration,\nDentistry, Education, Forestry, Land &\nFood Systems, Medicine, Pharmaceutical\nSciences, Science), Land & Food Systems,\nLaw, and Science be approved.\nCarried.\nNEW CERTIFICATES\nThe Committee reported for information that it had approved two new certificates as submitted by Continuing Studies:\n1. UBC Certificate in Translation and Interpretation for Business (Chinese/English; English/Chinese)\n2. UBC Certificate in Translation and Interpretation for Business (Korean/English; English/Korean)\nJoint Report from the Admissions and Curriculum Committees\nCurriculum Committee member Dr. McKee presented the reports.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-151\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAdmissions and Curriculum Committees, continued\nSee also Appendix A: Curriculum Summary.'\nDr. McKee l That Senate approve the changes to the\nDr. Fielding J Bachelor of Midwifery and its associated\ncourses; and\nThat Senate approve the new Master of Arts\nin Science and Technology Studies and its\nassociated courses; and\nThat Senate approve the new Master of\nMuseum Education and its associated\ncourses.\nLibrary Committee\nCommittee Chair Dr.Vessey presented the report.\nANNUAL REPORT ON COMMITTEE ACTIVITIES\nThe Committee circulated the following report for information.\nIn its first full year of activity since it was revived in 2009-10, and in fulfilling its\nmandate [1] to \"advise and assist\" the University Librarian, the Committee held\nconsultative meetings with several individuals and groups, including the Library's\nnewly appointed Director, Digital Initiatives (Allan Bell), its Rare Books and Special Collections Archivist (Sarah Romkey), its Scholarly Communications Coordinator, Digital Initiatives (Joy Kirchner), and one of the co-chairs of the working\ngroup on Open Access for the Provost's Scholarly Communications Steering\nCommittee (Dr. Wyeth Wasserman, who presented a draft Position Statement on\nDissemination of Research: see also below). A further meeting, with the chairs of\nthe Library Advisory Committees for the faculties (which were earlier canvassed\nfor their concerns), has been arranged for a date after the last meeting of Senate.\nRecognizing that senators have been informed of the Library's main agenda and\ncurrent policy directions by the University Librarian (when presenting her Annual\nReport to Senate), having at present nothing [2] \"to recommend to the Senate\nwith respect to rules on the management and conduct of the Library,\" noting that\nthe chief of the \"matters of policy under discussion by the Committee\" [3] this\nyear \u00E2\u0080\u0094 namely, the Library's role in supporting and implementing a future policy\non Dissemination of Research (Open Access) \u00E2\u0080\u0094 awaits recommendations by the\nOpen Access working group of the Scholarly Communications Steering Committee reporting to the Provost, the Library Committee confines itself in this report\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 152\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nLibrary Committee, continued\nto three sets of observations of a general order which, it trusts, may be of use both\nto the Senate as it considers academic issues bearing on the Library and to the\nnext Senate Library Committee as it reflects upon its mandate [see 1-3 above].\nThese observations, framed by the questions posed below, correspond to three\nareas of particular concern identified by the University Librarian at the Committee's January 2011 meeting, which were: \"awareness of the role of the Library on\ncampus,\" \"the Library budget,\" and \"space requirements.\"\n1. What is the University Library?\nThe designation and mandate of a Senate \"Library\" Committee presuppose a\ncommon understanding of the nature and functions of a University Library, but\nsuch a shared understanding is now difficult to pin down. Whereas a decade ago\nit seemed possible that the idea of a University Library would be superseded and\nreplaced \u00E2\u0080\u0094 e.g., by that of a \"Learning Centre\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094 what has happened instead, at\nUBC as elsewhere, is that the conception of a University Library has evolved,\nmainly by expansion in several directions at once, to encompass new realities.\nThus the idea of the \"Library\" at UBC now comprehends, inter alia: study and\nsocial space on campus for students and others who may or may not be accessing\ninformation resources provided by the Library (\"Learning Commons\"); online\ninformation resources for UBC personnel who may or may not be on campus; a\nwide range of digitization projects, extending rapidly beyond materials already or\npreviously held in other forms by the UBC Library; UBC's future stake in a BC\nIntegrated Research Library (IRL) that would contain the \"last\" retained copy of\njournal-issues and other volumes otherwise deaccessioned by the stakeholder\nlibraries; an institutional repository (cIRcle) for the research production of UBC\nstudents and faculty, whether or not published elsewhere, envisaged as one element of a larger initiative for Open Access; technical, instructional, reference and\nresearch support and infrastructure provided by library personnel to students and\nfaculty, whether at Library facilities (e.g., \"Research Commons\") or elsewhere\nacross campus or at the hospital sites; electronic systems for management of collections and user accounts, accessible through mobile devices; a wide range of\nnon-bibliographic services provided to non-University communities, locally and\nprovince-wide (e.g., via the IKBLC) ... While most of the functions named here\nstill have a visible relation to the \"traditional\" functions of the University Library\nof thirty years ago, all represent significant departures and expansions \u00E2\u0080\u0094 driven\nor made possible by new technology and new visions of the social role of the university \u00E2\u0080\u0094 with respect to the former mandate of university libraries. One inevitable result of this internal diversification and external diffusion of \"library\"\nfunctions is a fracturing of perceptions of what the University Library is and of\nwhat its limits are or ought to be. From this follow two further \"academic\" questions:\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-153\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nLibrary Committee, continued\n2. What should the \"budget\" for the Library be?\nThe Library Committee's mandate to advise and assist the Librarian includes\n\"advising on the allocation of collection funds to the fields of instruction and\nresearch,\" but since the idea of a Library as comprising essentially its own \"collection^)\" is now outdated, in practice the budgetary concerns of the Committee\ntend quickly to exceed that brief.\nAlthough the Library has a (small) special fund for new initiatives, its operating\nbudget has not seen any major increase in recent years, despite the multiplication\nand expansion of Library functions, and even though few of the anticipated \"savings\" consequent on the declining (relative) importance of print media have yet\nbeen banked; physical collections in the traditional sense still need to be acquired,\ncatalogued, managed, shelved and preserved. As \"The Library\" comes to stand\nfor something like \"cross-faculty, crosssector local manager of universal data\nresources,\" so the question of how funding for its proliferating functions is\nassured at the appropriate level becomes more pressing. While this issue is in a\nstrict sense ultra vires for the Library Committee, it has loomed large in our discussions this year.\n3. What are the \"space requirements\" of the Library?\nAs books gradually disappear into vaults or remote storage, so book-stacks give\nway to alternative uses of the space occupied by library buildings. If the \"real\"\nlibrary had simply morphed into a \"virtual\" library accessible without any mediation beyond that provided by Microsoft and Google, all that space could be\nvacated for \"non-library\" uses.\nSince that has not happened \u00E2\u0080\u0094 since, on the contrary, the Library has assumed an\narray of new or expanded functions requiring continued heavy investments in\nstaff, equipment, infrastructure and in facilities where students, staff, faculty and\nmembers of the public can interact both \"live\" and online \u00E2\u0080\u0094 questions about the\nprovision and allocation of space for library services, and about the increasingly\nporous and potentially contested boundaries between library-space, non-library\ncommon space, and non-library kinds of dedicated space are also coming to the\nfore. This, in turn, is just one aspect of the challenge now facing the Library Committee in its duty of advising and assisting the Librarian in \"developing a general\nprogram of library service for all the interests of the University.\"\nDISCUSSION\nDr. Knight thanked Dr. Vessey for his willingness to serve as Chair of the Library Committee.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 154\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nNominating Committee\nCommittee Chair Dr. Windsor-Liscombe presented the reports.\nAPPOINTMENT OF STUDENT SENATORS TO COMMITTEES OF SENATE AND\nCOMMITTEES OF THE COUNCIL OF SENATES\nThe Committee had circulated its recommendations on appointment of Student Senators\nto the Committees of Senate and Committees of the Council of Senate.

Of\nthe appeals considered by the Senate Committee, one (1) was allowed and five (5)\nwere dismissed. The misconduct, the disciplinary actions taken by the President,\nthe nature of the appeals and the decisions of the Senate Committee are as follows:\n1. June 2010\nThe student was disciplined for non-academic misconduct. The discipline\nimposed by the President was suspension from the University for a period of\n12 months, no access to the University campus for the duration of the suspension, no contact with University faculty and staff during the period of suspension and a notation of non-academic misconduct entered on the student's\ntranscript.

The Council was established in 1986. When it\nwas founded, the Council had 50 elected faculty members, representing each Faculty involved in graduate education. In 1990, faculty representation on the Graduate Council was expanded from 50 to 75 members, distributed using a formula\nwhich allocated representatives among the Faculties in proportion to the number\nof faculty members who are also members of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and\nthe size of the graduate student body. (Student representation on the Council was\nalso increased in the proportion to the increase in faculty membership, from 6 to\n9 members, to be allocated among Faculties according to the size of the graduate\nstudent body of each Faculty. In 2006, student representation to the Council was\nincreased further to 14 members.) The allocation formula was updated in 2006,\non the understanding that it would be reviewed five years hence.\nSelection of Faculty Representatives on Graduate Council\nThe bylaws of the Graduate Council require that the 75 seats for faculty members\nbe filled by elections. In a number of Faculties, the number of candidates has consistently been so small that all the nominees are elected by acclamation rather\nthan by voting. The Graduate Council suggests amending its bylaws to simplify\nthis process. Elections will still be allowed, but not required.\n Vancouver Senate\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\n10/11 - 159\nReports from the Faculty of Graduate Studies, continued\nThe proposal also advances the deadline for determining Graduate Council membership by two months. Typically the Council meets in late September each year,\nand it is ideal to settle the membership before the first meeting.\nDr. Laewen\nDr. Windsor-\nLiscombe\nThat Senate amend the means for selecting\nfaculty members to serve on the Graduate\nCouncil as set out in detail below, under the\nheading, \"Selection of Faculty\nRepresentatives on Graduate Council;\"\nThat Senate amend the formula for\nallocation of faculty members to the\nGraduate Council as set out in Appendix A,\nunder the heading, \"Allocation Formula for\nFaculty Representation on Graduate\nCouncil;\"\nThat Senate receive the proposed allocation\nof Faculty Members to the Graduate\nCouncil, effective 1 July 2011, as shown in\nthe table in Appendix A, under the heading,\n\"Allocation of Faculty Members to the\nGraduate Council (Effective 1 July 2011);\"\nand\nThat Senate direct the Graduate Council:\nl.To review the allocation of faculty\nmembers to the Graduate Council every\nfive years effective 1 July 2011;\n2. To adjust the membership of the Graduate\nCouncil accordingly; and\n3.To provide the results of such reviews and\nadjustments to Senate for information.\nDISCUSSION\nDr. Anstee asked about the distinction between election and selection, noting that Senators were elected rather than being selected in some other way. Dean pro tern. Porter\nstated that, in current practice, graduate advisors tended to hold these seats, making selection more sensible than holding an election.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 160\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nReports from the Faculty of Graduate Studies, continued\nIn response to a question from Dr. Hall, Dr. Loewen indicated that students in the Interdisciplinary Graduate Studies Program would have representation because it was the\nintent of the Faculty of Graduate Studies to select a faculty member working with that\ngroup of students.\nCORRECTION OF REPORT BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT\nThe table in Appendix A was corrected as follows: Column \"Change,\" Row \"Commerce:\" Change from \"+1\" to \"-1\".\nThe motion was\nput and carried.\nAFFILIATIONS WITH BEIJING NORMAL UNIVERSITY, ZHUHAI, AND NORTHEAST\nNORMAL UNIVERSITY\nAn excerpt from the circulated report follows:\nThe Faculty of Graduate Studies is pleased to forward the requests of the Faculty\nof Education to allow for the following affiliations for graduate programs:\nBeijing Normal University, Zhuhai - UBC Master of Museum Education\nNortheast Normal University - UBC Master of Education in Curriculum Studies\nAttached are the proposed memoranda of agreement that will form the bases of\nthese affiliations. The agreements set out a block transfer of 12 credits into the\nrespective programs from the designated Chinese university and reiterate the necessary UBC curriculum that must be completed for these students to complete\ntheir degrees. The Faculty notes that twelve credits is the maximum amount currently permitted for transfer into a graduate program by UBC academic regulations, and that these agreements abide by the standard Master of Education in\nCurriculum Studies and the proposed Master of Museum Education curricula -\nthese affiliations do not change any program or academic requirements at UBC.\nThe Master of Museum Education is a new program being considered by Senate\nthis evening; for details on this program, please refer to the new program report\nof the Curriculum and Admissions Committees.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-161\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nReports from the Faculty of Graduate Studies, continued\nBoth memoranda have been reviewed by the offices of the University Counsel,\nProvost, UBC International, and Go Global.\nDean pro tern. l That the Senate recommend the attached\nPorter J memoranda of understanding with Beijing\nDr. Anstee Normal University, Zhuhai, and Northeast\nNormal University to the Council of Senates\nfor approval.\nDISCUSSION\nDr. Hall noted the proposal that students from the affiliated universities would be given\ntheir own section of some courses. She asked why that arrangement was preferable to registering these students in sections with other UBC students. The assembly recognized Dr.\nTom Sork, Senior Associate Dean, Faculty of Education, who responded that this issue\nhad been discussed with the partner institutions. For economic and class capacity reasons,\nit was important to set up a special section. Necessary supports in areas such as writing\ndevelopment would also be more easily provided.\nIn response to a question from Dr. Knight, Dr. Sork confirmed that the language of\ninstruction for the UBC courses would be English, and that the degree granted would be\nsolely from UBC.\nThe motion was\nput and carried.\nReport from the Provost & Vice-President, Academic\nACCESS COPYRIGHT\nThe assembly recognized guest presenter Mr. Allan Bell, Director, Digital Initiatives, UBC\nLibrary. The following report had been circulated:\nAccess Copyright (AC), a copyright collective that collects copyright fees for publishers from postsecondary institutions, has proposed dramatic fee increases.\nThese fees are payable by universities for copying material from scholarly journals, textbooks, and other materials. Until recently, it was economically feasible\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-162\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAccess Copyright, continued\nfor universities to pay a fee to AC and thereby avoid the cost of seeking individual\ncopyright clearance directly from each publisher.\nUBC currently pays AC fees amounting to $650,000/year, of which $150,000 is\nsubsidized from UBC's general operating funds and $500,000 a year is built into\nthe cost of course packs purchased by students. AC has applied to the Copyright\nBoard of Canada for approval of a new tariff that would increase these costs to\n$2M annually.\nThe Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC), on behalf of\nUBC and its other member universities, is opposing the size of the increase. However, a final determination by the Copyright Board of Canada is likely to take two\nyears or more. Although the full impact cannot be known until this process is\ncomplete, the effect on students, faculty, and the university budget will be considerable.\nThe Copyright Board granted Access Copyright an interim tariff (essentially status quo) on Dec. 23, 2010 that will apply from Jan. 1, 2011 through Dec. 31,\n2013.\nTo avoid exposure to a tariff retroactive from Jan. 1, 2011, UBC is exploring the\npossibility of opting out of the arrangement with Access Copyright. This decision\nrests with the University executive and is expected to be made soon.\nThe University is legally obligated to ensure that faculty and staff understand\ncopyright compliance and do not act in violation of the Copyright Act. Infringing\nactivities may result in claims that would have serious financial implications for\nthe University and/or individuals.\nIf and when UBC opts out of the arrangement, there will be several copying practices that will not be possible in the absence of a collective license and that do not\nqualify under the fair dealing exception in the Copyright Act. Any photocopying\nand scanning from copyrighted works by students, faculty, staff and administrators at UBC would need to be limited to what is allowed under the Copyright Act.\nCopies made for the purpose of research, private study, criticism or review can\ncontinue to be made under the \"fair dealing\" exception of the Copyright Act. It is\nalso permissible to make copies if authorized by the copyright owner (often the\ncopyright owner is not the author).\nCopying done for the purpose of teaching or instruction is generally not considered \"fair dealing\". Consequently, faculty and staff making copies in paper or\nelectronic formats (for example, by creating pdf files or cutting and pasting material into word documents or other formats, or by scanning, etc.) for distribution\nto students or colleagues is not generally permitted.\nMembers of faculty or staff can email ubc-copyright@interchange.ubc.ca for\nassistance.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-163\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAccess Copyright, continued\nAUCC has offered assistance to the campus through the provision of Copying\nGuidelines as part of the broader Fair Dealing Policy.\nUBC Library has negotiated license agreements with publishers of electronic journals, books and databases it has purchased. Each resource is governed by the\nterms of a specific license, and UBC Library has created an Electronic Resources\nLicense Information database to help you understand what you can and cannot\ndo with these electronic materials.\nCourse packs can continue to be produced through the UBC Bookstore with permission from the copyright owner. Keep in mind that significantly more lead-time\nwill be needed to clear copyright (eight to ten weeks is the norm), and in some\ncases, permission may not be obtained. Faculty will need to be prepared to change\ntheir course readings if permission is not granted.

Because the period after January 1, 2011 was covered by an interim tariff, it was\npossible that retroactive fees would be assessed. The longer the University remained\nwith Access Copyright, the greater that liability could become.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Of approximately 100 universities in Canada, only 10 percent had opted out, with\nnone of the large institutions having opted out to date.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Rules pertaining to custom course packages would change if the University were to opt\nout.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 A worst-case scenario would entail much higher costs for students for their course\npackages, as well as significant time spent by faculty and staff seeking permission to use\nmaterials. Should the University opt out but later be found to be non-compliant with\ncopyright rules, heavy fines would be levied.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Dr. Farrar was looking into the experience of other institutions that had opted out.\nMost of those institutions were much smaller than UBC.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 US legislation differed in that its \"fair use\" provisions covered significantly more materials. Exclusions under Australian legislation were different from those in place in Canada.\nDr. Vessey described the current issue as a new front on an existing scholarly communication war. He asked for an assessment of how much of the Senate's time and the administration's time would likely be spent on the matter, and how much of a stand the University\nwas prepared to take. Dr. Farrar stated that the immediate decision before the University\nwas whether to opt out, effective September 1, 2011, or accept the interim tariff for\nanother academic year. In order to make that decision, the University needed to fully\nunderstand its exposure. He expressed the opinion that the law was far too restrictive,\nand that copies for instructional purposes should be permitted. Even given this philosophical opposition, however, it was important to consider how much financial risk the University was prepared to take.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11-165\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAccess Copyright, continued\nIn response to a question from Dr. Vessey, Dr. Farrar stated that the Office of the University Counsel would be responsible for procuring the necessary licenses, with involvement\nfrom the UBC Library.\nDr. Hall noted that she preferred to provide students with a list of Digital Object Identifiers in lieu of custom course packages. Mr. Bell stated that Access Copyright had proposed\nto have links to documents included under their arrangement. Universities had objected.\nMr. Heisler noted that students would be very concerned if costs were to passed on to\nthem directly. He asked whether it would be feasible to move away from textbooks in\nfavour of use licences for other kinds of materials, thereby reducing the net cost to students. Dr. Farrar noted that due to provincial government limitations on student fees, the\nUniversity might not be permitted to assess per student fees to recover its costs.\nIn response to a question from Dr. Loewen, Dr. Farrar stated that the collective of publishers behind Access Copyright did have an effective monopoly on certain kinds of material.\nMr. Gibson asked whether Access Copyright's business model could support a majority of\nuniversities opting out. Dr. Farrar noted that the primary and secondary education markets would continue to provide a steady revenue stream for Access Copyright. Access\nCopyright was aware, however, that universities were dissatisfied and the Provost was\nhopeful that they would therefore enter into discussion on more reasonable terms.\nMr. Rasmussen asked about the possibility of the University publishing its own materials,\nnoting that it appeared that publishers appeared to be selling academic materials back to\nuniversities at exorbitant prices. Dr. Farrar noted that where faculty published their work\ndetermined, in part, the quality of that work. Many faculty were therefore understandably reluctant to publish in open source journals.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 166\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAccess Copyright, continued\nMr. Grajales asked about the potential of establishing a fund to help faculty cover open\naccess fees. Dr. Farrar stated that a committee had been established to look at publishing\nin the digital age, although it had not yet completed its work.\nThe Provost indicated that more information would be available over the summer\nmonths.\nAdjournment\nThere being no further business, the meeting was adjourned. The following regular meeting was scheduled to take place on September 14, 2011.\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 - 167\nMinutes of May 18, 2011\nAPPENDIX A: CURRICULUM SUMMARY\nFaculty of Arts\nNEW COURSES\nART HISTORY, VISUAL ART AND THEORY\nAFST 380 (3/6) D\nAFST 450 (3/6) D\nVISA 390 (3)\nVISA 401 (3-18) D\nASIAN STUDIES\nASIA 213 (3)\nASIA 254 (3)\nASIA 330 (3)\nASIA 366 (3)\nASIA 390 (3)\nASIA 391 (3)\nASIA 394 (3)\nASIA 414 (3)\nASIA 453 (3)\nASIA 468 (3)\nASIA 478 (3)\nPERS 100 (3)\nPERS 101 (3)\nPERS 104 (3)\nPERS 200 (3)\nPERS 201 (3)\nPERS 300 (3)\nPERS 301 (3)\nPUNJ457(3)\nCENTRAL, EASTERN & NORTHERN EUROPEAN STUDIES\nGERM 303 (3)\nGERM 304 (3)\nGERM 411 (3)\nGERM 412 (3)\nCLASSICAL, NEAR EASTERN & RELIGIOUS STUDIES\nNEST 315 (3)\n Vancouver Senate 10/11 -
