2011 Office of the President Holiday Greeting Card For the past two years, the Office of the President has sought submissions of original works of art for the cover of the President's holiday greeting card. For the 2011 card, we are asking for submissions of original works of poetry - specifically haiku - from members of the University of Manitoba community to use as the inside message for the greeting card. This is a wonderful opportunity to be creative, and perhaps try something new. One haiku will be featured in the President's 2011 card, which is shared with members of the University, community, corporate donors and friends. All submissions will be reviewed by a panel and assessed for their suitability. In the event that no suitable submissions are received, alternate work will be used. Please note that reproduction of the poem is for the sole purpose of the President's greeting card and that no financial gain will be made from the reproduction. GUIDELINES: Entries must be your original work and must adhere to the general rules of haiku. We are seeking examples that include the following characteristics: . A three-line form: five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the third line. . A focus on nature. . A seasonal focus, appropriate to this time of year. SUBMISSION: Email up to 3 haiku poems by Monday, November 28, 4:30 p.m. to Holly Campbell at: <mailto:holly_campbell@umanitoba.ca> holly_campbell(a)umanitoba.ca. Please include a title for your poem as well as your name, email address, phone number and a brief biography.

LH masthead.jpg To Students and Staff: Today we celebrate philanthropy in all its forms. November 15, 2011 marks the 26th anniversary of National Philanthropy Day, a special day that honours the impact of people who give generously to support causes that are important to them or volunteer their time to make a difference in their community. At the University of Manitoba we pay tribute to all of our alumni and friends and the great contributions that your goodwill brings to our lives, our communities and our world. All over the world, celebrations are being held to honour this unique day. In Manitoba, the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP), Manitoba Chapter is hosting its own event, and I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge a few of our graduates who are being recognized for their commitment to our province: Dr. Frank J. Hechter (DMD/71, MSc/76, MEd/90, PhD/95) is being honoured for his work as an Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser, while Dr. Gerry Price (BSc(ME)/70, MSc/72) and Mrs. Barbara Price (BHEc/69, CertEd/70) are being honoured as Outstanding Philanthropists. Our world is a better place thanks to those who share their good fortune with others. We are grateful to those who have enriched our community of learning, discovery and outreach. They are trailblazers, visionaries and innovators in their own right who have helped enrich the lives and ensure the success of our trailblazers, visionaries and innovators. If you want to learn more about how philanthropy has benefitted our university, you can read about how our donors have inspired and challenged our students and researchers to invent, grow, create, thrive and embrace the unexpected at <http://myuminfo.umanitoba.ca/index.asp?sec=440> http://myuminfo.umanitoba.ca/index.asp?sec=440.

LH masthead.jpg To Students, Staff and Alumni: On Remembrance Day, we reflect on the sacrifice of men and women who have given their lives to protect the rights and freedoms that we can too easily take for granted. The Avenue of the Elms on the Fort Garry Campus is a constant physical reminder that our students, faculty, staff and alumni at the University of Manitoba have been and continue to be touched by the tragedy of war. While that row of trees planted by the Manitoba Agricultural College is a memorial for its students who died in the First World War, there is nothing historic or distant about the danger that people face when they serve abroad. Cpl. Jordan Anderson, who was killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan in 2007, died before he could receive the Bachelor of Arts Degree he earned through the University's Military Support Office. Cpl. Anderson's wife accepted his degree on his behalf. It was the first time a degree was granted posthumously. While we cannot enter into the personal grief felt by his wife and the rest of his family, we do share their sadness and pride. Cpl. Anderson served his country in a life that was far too short. We are fortunate to include him among our graduates. Soldiers who serve or have served our country are fathers, husbands and sons, mothers, wives and daughters, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts. They are nieces, nephews and friends. It is important to remember those people, those families and their painful losses so that we never lose sight of the true cost of war. We can remember by pausing for at least a moment at the 11th hour on the 11th day to reflect on our good fortune or by attending a Remembrance Day ceremony. Sincerely, David

To Students, Faculty, Staff and Alumni: Earlier today in Halifax, the University of Manitoba added its voice to the apologies that have been expressed to Indian Residential School survivors at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We join other national institutions which have previously expressed their deep regret for these schools and their damaging impact on First Nations, Métis and Inuit people, communities and cultures. We see this as one important step in the process of reconciliation. We are committed to advance Indigenous education and success in Canada with partners from the broader community. With our statement of apology and reconciliation, I believe we are well on our way to achieving that goal. The University of Manitoba statement of apology and reconciliation demonstrates our commitment to Indigenous students, faculty and staff. Our university remains committed to a welcoming environment where Indigenous cultures and values are included and reflected in our teaching, discovery and engagement. We trust our apology will be accepted in the spirit of generosity and reconciliation that has been the hallmark of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission process. I am pleased to share the entire text of the statement. You can find it at <http://umanitoba.ca/about/media/StatementOfApology.pdf> http://umanitoba.ca/about/media/StatementOfApology.pdf. It is our intention, having said the words of this apology, to move to reconciliation. Sincerely, David David T.

Dear Student, >From November 17-20, 2011 the University of Calgary will be hosting the 5th Annual Canadian Conference on Student Leadership. The University of Manitoba Student Union and Student Life are teaming up to send an eight student delegation to represent the University of Manitoba. If you are available that weekend and interested in being one of the eight representatives, please submit: 1.

A resume that outlines your relevant student leadership experience, volunteer experience, and qualities you possess in academic and co-curricular areas. The anticipated cost for travel, accommodation, food and registration is $750. In exchange for you agreeing to attend a pre-conference meeting, attend the conference in its entirety, complete a report on the conference and facilitate some kind of 'information sharing' you learned at the conference with the University community, UMSU and Student Life will share your cost so that you only have to pay $250!

The University of Manitoba Sustainability Strategy and You On behalf of the University of Manitoba Sustainability Committee, we are very pleased to release a draft Sustainability Strategy for your consideration and comment. The release of this document marks a significant milestone in the university's efforts to improve sustainability and operate in a way that respects and supports our environment. In an effort to become a leader in this regard, the University of Manitoba Sustainability Committee has developed a comprehensive strategy that sets out a number of goals and actions with respect to campus operations, planning and community engagement. Ideas and feedback received from the university community formed the foundation of this draft Sustainability Strategy and we greatly appreciate your continued support in this process. The Sustainability Committee and its working groups listened to your ideas and suggestions and integrated them into a draft strategy that reflects your priorities. The result is a plan of action that fosters a culture of sustainability at our institution and integrates sustainability planning and action into all of our functions. The draft strategy is the beginning of our institution's transformation into a more sustainable place in which to learn, work and play. We strongly encourage you to participate in the many upcoming consultation opportunities that the committee is coordinating as we finalize this draft. Participation in the final consultation phase is critical to developing a Sustainability Strategy that is relevant and meaningful. We want you to have confidence in this strategy and to embrace its vision and goals. For a copy of the draft Sustainability Strategy, please visit www.umanitoba.ca/sustainability. To submit feedback or to learn how you can be a part of the consultation process, please visit University of Manitoba - Sustainability on Facebook, @SustainableUofM on Twitter, or send an email directly to Maire McDermott, sustainability coordinator, at sustainability(a)umanitoba.ca. Sincerely, A. John Sinclair Deborah J. McCallum Joanne C. Keselman Professor and Chair Vice-President (Administration) Vice-President (Academic) Sustainability Committee and Provost
