Advisory Group Membership

A diverse group of internal and external 69´«Ã½community stakeholders form the Advisory Group membership. To ensure strong representation, 69´«Ã½encouraged community members with an interest in contributing to this process to indicate their interest in participating through an open Call for Expressions of Interest. In addition, Unions representing unionized faculty and staff at 69´«Ã½had the opportunity to appoint a member from each of their respective unions to be a part of the Advisory Group. 

Advisory Group members were selected with an EDI lens based on their Statement of Interest in participating and their ability to attend meetings. Stakeholder groups such as the 69´«Ã½Student Union, 69´«Ã½Graduate Student Association, and 69´«Ã½Alumni Association, were also consulted in relation to representatives for their respective areas.

The Advisory Group membership includes:
