The Faculty Association of the University of Calgary, in accordance with its policy concerning the Assessment of Deans and equivalents, has completed a survey of the academic staff members in Faculties where the Dean or Dean-equivalent is at the mid-point of their term including the Vice-Provost (Libraries and Cultural Resources), the Dean of the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape, the Dean of the Haskayne School of Business, and the Dean of the Faculty of Nursing.

The results of these surveys are shared with the respective Deans and the Provost and Vice-President (Academic) subject to response thresholds in the policy. The response threshold was not met for the survey regarding the Dean of the School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape.

In accordance with the Faculty Association policy, information on only the quantitative results (statistics) of the survey will be released to the Association membership provided that the number of surveys received meets our requirements for the distribution of results. The quantitative results for the surveys of the Vice-Provost (Libraries and Cultural Resources), and the Deans of the Haskayne School of Business and the Faculty of Nursing are distributed with this newsletter to members of the Faculty Association.

Feel free to contact the Association office if you have any questions or concerns.
