FOR INFORMATION

1. Community Activities and Accomplishments

The report presented by Mr. David Estok, AVP (Communications and Public Affairs) at the March 30 CCACmeeting is posted on the Board of Governors website ( http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/board ) as“Community_Activities_and_Accomplishments.pdf”.

2. Non-Tuition-Related Ancillary Fees for 2006-07

Provincial legislation defines a non-tuition-related compulsory ancillary fee as a fee which is levied in orderto cover the costs of items which are not normally paid for out of operating or capital revenue.

Since 1994, the government has required that new or increased fees be determined in accordance with aprotocol agreed to between the University and student government representatives.

The Student Services Committee Protocol was approved by the Board of Governors and the studentgovernment representatives in 1995. Under the terms of the protocol, the Student Services Committee (SSC)makes annual submissions to the Campus and Community Affairs Committee (CCAC) on changes orincreases to fees relating to a number of ancillary operations detailed in the protocol, any user fees collectedas a pre-condition for use of a student service, any new fee or service, and the direction and scope of studentservices. [SSC Protocol, Article 2.00]

Fees levied or proposed by student governing bodies that affect only the students represented by that bodydo not fall under the Protocol. [SSC Protocol, Article 7.01]

Each year the CCAC receives recommendations for two types of Non-Tuition-Related Ancillary Fees -- thosethat fall within the Student Services Committee Protocol, and student organization fees which are not coveredby the Protocol. Both types are referenced in Board Policy 2.4 - Student Fees - in section 2.00 (b) and (c)respectively. That policy may be seen at http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/mapp/section2/mapp24.pdf

Recommendations of the Student Services Committee:

On March 30, 2006, the Campus & Community Affairs Committee received the annual report andrecommendations of the Student Services Committee with respect to non-tuition-related ancillary fees,presented by its Chair, Ryan Dunn.

The Student Services Committee’s report is attached as Annex 1. The Campus & Community AffairsCommittee supported – and recommended to the Property & Finance Committee -- the request that the studentservices fees listed in Enclosure 1 be approved for 2006-07 and the recommendation that a $60.00 studentactivity fee be collected in the 2008-09 academic school year to contribute to the cost of constructing a newstudent recreation facility. This fee would be subject to a 3% increase each year to reflect the cost ofinflation. The student activity fee would be collected over a period of 30 years, beginning September 2008and ending April 2038. Collection of the student activity fee in 2008-09 will be contingent upon theUniversity providing satisfactory evidence that the student sports and recreation centre will be substantiallyusable in the 2008-09 academic school year.

These recommendations are reflected in the “Student Fee Funded Units, Ancillaries, Academic Support Units,and Associated Companies” document (green cover) provided with the Report of the Property & FinanceCommittee to this meeting of the Board.

3. Non-Tuition-Related Ancillary Fees Proposed by Student Organizations

Student Services Committee Year End Report: 2005-2006

Respectfully Submitted By:

Ryan Dunn

APPENDIX 111 Annex 1

INTRODUCTION The Student Services Committee (SSC) met 4 times over the course of the 2005-

2006 Academic year. Originally the committee set out to review 3 ancillary units, namely: First Nations, Campus Recreation, Off-Campus Housing OEce, and Services for Students with Diabilities. However, at the first meeting of the SSC, it was agreed that the committee would take a more holistic approach to the ancillary units. Instead of looking at ancillary units as individual departments, the committee reviewed the needs of students across the campus. Around November, it became quite apparent that the SSC would be tasked with one major issue for the year: a new recreation centre.

WESTERN SPORTS AND RECREATION CENTRE The Student Services Protocol has a very strict process for implementing new

ancillary fees. This process is quite confusing and the committee had a very difficult time understanding all of its elements. This proved to be quite stressful given the short time fi-ame the committee had to work with. Another challenge the committee faced throughout the process was quorum. The SSC protocol states that quorum consists of 4 voting members of the SSC. Moreover, if the SSC wishes to implement a new fee, at least 2 of the 3 student groups must be present at the meeting. The introduction of the new recreation centre was brought to the SSC on January 9,2006. This meeting was dissolved because only 3 voting members were present.

A second meeting was called and 14 days notice was given. On January 24,2006 the SSC met, with quorum, to discuss the new student fee. There were two student groups represented, the University Students Council (USC), and the Society of Graduate Students (SOGS). At this meeting the concept of a recreation centre was discussed and the referendum question was presented (Appendix A). The Student Services Committee voted unanimously to accept the referendum question for presentation to each group's respective constituents. In the end, the students voted in favour of accepting the student fee (Appendix B).

ANCILLARY BUDGETS Outside of the recreation referendum, the SSC had a relatively uneventful year.

On March 7,' 2006, the SSC met to discuss and approve the ancillary budgets for the year. The total ancillary fee paid by students cannot exceed the CPI. For the 2006-2007 academic year, the CPI was set at 2.2%. Therefore, a $6.05 inflation pool could be spread amongst the various ancillary units. The following ancillary units will be frozen for the 2006-2007 academic year:

rn Financial Aid 8 Intercollegiate Athletics rn Student Health Services rn Thompson Recreation and Athletic Centre

The following ancillary units will receive increases: rn Student Development Centre

First Nations Services rn Services for Students with Disabilities rn Centre for New Students

Western Foot Patrol m Campus Recreation

Off-Campus Housing Office The full fee schedule is attached (Appendix C). There were very few questions about the budgets. It is important to note that the Foot Patrol fee will be collected from both main campus and affiliate college students for the 2006-2007 academic year. In previous years this fee was not collected on a per student basis. However, because Foot Patrol's services have always been available to affiliates, it is fair to administer this fee to all students. At the conclusion of the meeting, the SSC voted unanimously to accept Appendix C as the ancillary fee schedule for the following year.

RECOMMENDATIONS The SSC recommends the following:

A $60.00 student activity fee be collected in the 2008-2009 academic school year to contribute to the cost of constructing a new student recreation facility. This fee would be subject to a 3% increase each year to reflect the cost of inflation. The student activity fee would be collected over a period of 30 years, beginning S ptember 2008 and ending April 2038. Collection of the student

6 ~ ~ 0 7 activity fe&ll be contingent upon the University providing satisfactory evidence that the student sports and recreation centre will be substantially usable in the 200812009 academic school year.

The fee schedule (Appendix C) be implemented for the 2006-2007 academic year.

CONCLUSION .:

I will admit that I knew nothing and perhaps still know nothing about the SSC. This committee was never fully explained to me during my transition, and the processes were somewhat vague. I think that there is a great potential for the SSC to have an impact on student life. However, I realize that the SSC has essentially become a rubber stamp of political channels. Most of the work involved with the student recreation centre was done outside of the SSC. I think that when embarking on changes to student fees, it is important for the bulk of the work to be done outside of the committee, making sure that all student groups are consulted throughout the process. I think that Western continues to venture forward in offering the best student services in Canada. I hope that positive attitudes and professionalism continue to be the foundations of the SSC. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as chair and would like to thank the committee for all of their hard work and patience. A very special thanks should be extended to Andrea Klooster, the SSC secretary, for her hard work and guidance throughout the process.

Sincerely, ,

7a- Ryan Dutin ssc Chair

ANNUAL REPORT SUMMARIZING THE ACTIVITY OF THE LlNlVERSlTY STUDENTS' COUNCIL

WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY CENTRE

Submitted to the Campus and Community Affairs Committee of the Board of Governors of the

University of Western Ontario by the University Students' Council

March 22 2006

BACKGROUND

This report is submitted to the Campus and Community Affairs Committee of the Board of Governors in accordance with Section 3.9 of the Restated Occupancy Agreement (May 1 1995). This section requires that the University Students' Council "report annually not later than March 3 1 of each year", summarizing its "management of the UCC common space and its Designated Space".

ACTIVITY IN COMMON SPACE

The UCC was undoubtedly at the centre of activity on campus this past year

The highlight of the year was the Congress of the Social Sciences and Humanities. Over the course of 10 days in May more than 7000 delegates converged on Western to learn and share their knowledge. Serving as the organizational and administrative centre, the UCC housed the Registration Area, the Press Office, the Book Fair, the IT Support Office, and the Congress Administration Office. In addition, the UCC also played host to many of the academic elements of the Congress: lectures in the McKellar Room; Association Meetings in Council Chambers, various Conference Rooms, and the Spoke Lounge; and Book Launches and receptions in the Spoke Lounge and the Wave. Finally, the UCC functioned as it always does - as the place where people meet in a relaxed and informal setting.

The Congress was hardly finished before the second big event of the summer began: World Transplant Games. As with the Congress, people from around the world converged on campus and utilized UCC as the centre for organization and administration. UCC housed Registration, Press, Merchandise Sales, Meetings, Temporary Offices and Logistical Control.

Both events were unqualified successes and the USC is proud to have supported both.

In addition to the Congress and the Games, the UCC hosted a tremendous variety of activities and events sponsored and organized by UWO entities. A partial list includes:

Fall Open House and Spring Preview Days

Graduate and Professional School Fair All-Campus Job Fair Classes in McKellar Room English Conversation Classes Convocation Regalia Rentals Senior Alumni Programme

In an interesting diversion from the ordinary, the Commercial Aviation Management Programme arranged to display a small airplane on the "Concrete Beach" as part of its efforts to raise awareness and interest in the programme. As well, Intervarsity Athletics utilized a kiosk in the Atrium for 3 months to sell tickets to Mustang Men's Hockey at the John Labatt Centre. And, as always, the Sunstang was "debuted" in the Atrium prior to its annual marathon to demonstrate alternative fuels and Western's engineering prowess.

The USC and its affiliated groups sponsored and organized many events and activities. The USC directly organized events including Campus Safety and Accessibility Week, Aids Awareness Days, Remembrance Week Displays and Ceremonies, and two highly- successful Clubs Weeks. As well, the USC continues to convert the Atrium and most lounges to study space during both examination periods. With the UCC open 24 hours each day, 7 days each week, this is a highly-utilized service. USC-ratified clubs organized Art and Craft Sales, Movie Nights, Cultural Awareness Days, Coffee Houses, Fashion Shows, Charitable Fundraising, and Speakers.

The UCC continues to attract considerable commercial, fundraising and recruitment activity. Vendors selling a wide variety of products and services return annually. Charitable organizations routinely canvass for financial and volunteer support. Recruiters looking for student employees or offering students study opportunities overseas regularly utilize space in the Atrium.

The UCC continues to be a dynamic facility, heavily used by many members of the Western community for myriad purposes.

BUILDING MANAGEMENT

As always, the USC and UWO enjoy a strong and productive relationship. Nowhere was this more evident than the recent agreement concerning the Western Sports and Recreation Centre. The anticipated departure of Campus Recreation and of the Student Development Centre represents the loss of two of the UCCYs original services and the potential to seriously affect the health of the facility. But the strong commitment of both the USC and UWO guarantee that the UCC will remain vital and relevant. The WSRC agreement ensures that the partnership between the USC and UWO remains strong, and that both organizations are committed to the long-term wellbeing of the UCC.

Representatives of the student leadership continue to meet regularly with representatives of senior administration. These meetings help keep communications open and free and

permit the discussion and resolution of issues in a constructive manner and on a timely basis. Both organizations continue to work closely to ensure that the UCC exercises its mandate as defined by the 1995 Memorandum of Agreement between the USC and UWO. This close working relationship will be of value in the coming months while that Agreement is renegotiated.

There were several significant renovations in the UCC this past year. In April, the Infosource received a facelift, giving it a more modem and professional look. During the summer, The Pit Stop Convenience Store and Varsity Authentics Clothing were rebuilt, emerging with a new look and a new name - Mustang Alley. Finally, the UCC's washrooms and Centrespot Lounge were updated with new fixtures, ceilings and finishes. Each of these projects was undertaken to protect and enhance the physical and esthetic value of the UCC.

Among the tenancies, the only significant change was the departure of The Cottage Tanning Salon in July. A new tenant - Desjardins Credit Union - occupied the salon space, as well as the space vacated by the Via Rail Office. All available lease space is now fully occupied.

SUMMARY

The UCC's importance to the Western Community is evidenced by its continued heavy and dynamic usage. It is the strong desire of the USC that it remain so. The USC has considerable financial and other investments in the UCC and intends to maintain and increase those investments in the future. The USC will continue to actively manage the UCC in a manner that will ensure its continued health and relevance.
