UM Today Special Edition: Budget 2015-16
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 14 Nov '14

14 Nov '14

A message from Dr. David Barnard, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manitoba November 14, 2014 http://www.umanitoba.ca/?utm_source=waag&utm_medium=email http://news.umanitoba.ca?utm_source=umtoday&utm_medium=email A message from Dr. David Barnard, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manitoba I am writing to you today about the serious budgetary challenges our University community is facing. Conversations about the budget are not always easy ones to have, but we all need to understand the subject in order to respond appropriately. As more information becomes available, I will share it with you in a timely fashion. Post-secondary institutions in this province and country can no longer sustain their operations within the current funding model. Nationally, universities have been forced in recent years to cut budgets at the expense of essential programs and services. In Manitoba, many years of low provincial grant funding and frozen or controlled tuition rates have resulted in severe stresses on the capacity of our post-secondary institutions to deliver on their mandates. At the University of Manitoba in particular, the financial demands associated with operating our institution have outpaced the growth of our resources. Put bluntly, the funding model in place does not enable the University to fully support the outcomes our students, staff and faculty are capable of achieving for themselves and, ultimately, for the betterment of Manitoba. As we advocate for changes to the model and improved funding, we are at the same time faced with the immediate prospect of balancing the budget under cur rent circumstances. Together we need to find ways to better align our expenses with our revenues while maintaining our commitment to our institutional priorities. This will be the focus of our work as we prepare a balanced budget for 2015/2016.

PHISHING Email Security Notice
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 07 Nov '14

07 Nov '14

PHISHING Email Security Notice Several students have reported receiving a phishing email sent to their myumanitoba email address. The email has the following features: FROM: myumanitoba.ca <miskander AT aucegypt.edu> SUBJECT: Email Account Update The email claims your account has been suspended because of maintenance, and that you need to click a link to "verify" your account. There is a threat if you don't comply. DO NOT click the link. DELETE the email. The link itself is not dangerous, but it takes you to a fake form. Filling in and submitting the form will give your credentials to the attacker who may then use your account to send spam or attempt some other type of fraud. The University of Manitoba will not send emails threatening account closure if you don't visit a link. How to Spot Phishing Emails As you may be aware, common themes of a classic phishing email to watch for are: - threats of account closure - mentions of "upgrades" that require changes to your account - "verification" of your account - any request for userid, password, financial information - request to "click a link" for anything related to email or financial accounts - generic wording in the salutation, body or closing signature - technical deception to make a link in an email appear to belong to a spoofed organization - use of images instead of text in order to evade keyword filters - forging real websites, logos, login pages, etc... The target is almost always an email account, online banking, credit cards, paypal, Amazon, parcel delivery. Anything of financial value to the attacker or can gain access to an email account that can be used to send spam to other victims, or commit other types of fraud. Never click a link in an email. Visit the organizations website directly by typing a known address into your browser. Be cautious with attachments that are unsolicited. Please do not hesitate to contact the Service desk if you have any questions. Thank you, Service Desk Information Services & Technology University of Manitoba 123 Fletcher Argue 230 Neil John MacLean Library 204-474-8600 Servicedesk(a)umanitoba.ca ************************************************************************************************************* This communication is intended for the use of the recipient to which it is addressed, and may contain confidential, personal and/or privileged information.

Registrar's Office Is this email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser<http://www.umanitoba.ca/student/vice-provost/loop/files/registrar/re-sept-2…>. [U of M Registrar's Office] You are receiving this email because you are currently registered for Fall 2014 courses at the University of Manitoba. If you will not attend the U of M this term, you must withdraw from your courses before September 17*. *Most students will use Aurora<https://aurora.umanitoba.ca/banprod/twbkwbis.P_GenMenu?name=homepage> to withdraw from courses. If you have any difficulty, please contact your faculty/advising office: Undergraduate<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/tutorial/academic-advisors.html>, Graduate<http://fgs-webap.cc.umanitoba.ca/contacts/index.php?contact=suppstaff>. Graduate Studies students who are unable to continue studies this term must contact their department<http://fgs-webap.cc.umanitoba.ca/contacts/index.php?contact=suppstaff> regarding a Leave of Absence. Registration revision deadline may differ for irregularly dated courses<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/fees/irregular_refund_vw_deadlines.html> and Faculty of Law<http://crscalprod1.cc.umanitoba.ca/Catalog/ViewCatalog.aspx?pageid=viewcata…>. ________________________________ To all U of M students, The Fall Term 2014 Registration Revision Period ends September 17, 2014.** The Registration Revision Period can be used to attend classes, test out your classroom experience and determine if you will remain registered in the courses you have selected or if changes should be made. Don't forget to review your fee assessment after making any changes! During the Registration Revision Period, you may: * Add a new class if you changed your mind about your course subjects, or if a course that was previously full is now available * Drop a class and receive a tuition refund * Switch a lecture or lab to a more preferred day/time September 17, 2014** is the last day to make changes to your Fall 2014 or Fall 2014/Winter 2015 spanned course registration. Check your fee assessment after making changes to your registration; any fees resulting from changes are due September 17. **Registration revision deadline may differ for irregularly dated courses<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/fees/irregular_refund_vw_deadlines.html> and Faculty of Law<http://crscalprod1.cc.umanitoba.ca/Catalog/ViewCatalog.aspx?pageid=viewcata…>. Late Fee Payment: * Students with outstanding fees after the September 10 fee payment deadline have already been assessed late fees. * Students should review their fee assessment after any registration changes made during the Revision Period. * A further $40 late fee will be applied to accounts outstanding after September 17 and students will be placed on Hold. Students on Hold will need faculty/school advising office assistance to withdraw from courses. * All students with unpaid accounts will receive reminder notices by email, mail and phone; all unpaid accounts will eventually be referred to a collections agency. Remember: * Students who do not withdraw from their fall term and fall/winter term spanned courses by September 17** will be required to pay the full tuition and fees for all courses in which they are registered even if they do not attend classes. * Once the Revision Period is over, students are no longer able to add new classes, or to switch the day/time for lectures and labs - you may still Voluntarily Withdraw from a class, but will not receive a tuition refund. * Be cautious of adding a new course too late in the Registration Revision Period - you may have missed a number of classes, and have assignments due right away. If you don't get space in a course within the first few days of the Revision period, late registration may not be a good idea.
