Nominations sought for external Board members
The Governance and Ethics Committee of the Board of Governors invites nominations for representatives of the external community to serve as members of the Board.
Vacancies are to be filled as of July 1, 2014.
The prospective Board member must be committed to higher education and the well-being of students. They are expected to serve on at least one of the standing committees of the Board and may, from time to time, be involved in special projects. Appointments are for renewable three-year terms. No honorarium is paid.
Nominations should include a curriculum vitae or short biographical notes and a succinct statement explaining, from the perspective of the nominator, how the candidate could contribute to the Board.
In evaluating nominations, the Governance and Ethics Committee will take into account the various segments of the community served by the university, which is charged with recommending members from the external community to the Board of Governors.
Please forward nominations, in confidence, to Danielle Tessier, director of Board and Senate Administration, via email no later than March 21, 2014.
As there can be no assurance that a nominee will be offered a seat on the Board, your nomination should be held in the strictest confidence and should not be discussed with the nominee.
