Algoma University Special Senate Minutes

The special meeting continued outstanding items from the previous Senate agenda. Key decisions included the approval of Senate membership and Senate Committee composition slates effective July 1, 2025. A significant motion was carried recommending that Algoma University abandon the Resource Allocation Model (RCM) budget model due to perceived inequities and negative impacts on academic programming, favoring a new model to support equity and collaboration. The Senate also approved changes to the by-laws to introduce the Secretariat role and provide for an elected Secretary, despite concerns regarding authority and governance structure raised by the Interim President and Associate University Secretary. Other business included discussions on a proposed curriculum revision which was not formally discussed or approved, and an update on revised Associate Vice-President job descriptions. During the discussion period, there was an extensive exchange regarding the university's financial situation, the utilization of Provincial Attestation Letters (PALs), potential reallocation by the Ministry, and advocacy efforts. Finally, nominations were taken for the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, and Secretary of Senate, with nominations for the Secretary being deferred to the next meeting.
