Jan.-Feb. - Virtual Meetings

Jan 6th. - Zoom Virtual Meeting - Herb Kunze:
                        Ontario University Funding (& Finances)
 
​​Presentation:
  
It is likely uncontroversial to say that public universities serve society through their teaching and research mission. In this presentation, we will discuss how universities fund their operations in pursuit of this mission. We will see that there are numerous "revenue streams," and we will consider their stability and predictability. The funding (or revenue) is inadequate if it cannot consistently cover expenses, so we also need to discuss the other half of the ledger, leading to a discussion of university finances. I may talk broadly about the Ontario university sector or typical universities at times, but I intend for the talk to also be somewhat of a case study of the University of Guelph.

He is currently the Vice-President of the University of Guelph Faculty Association (UGFA) and will become the UGFA President in 2022.
