List of Vacancies

Each year, the Nominations Committee of Council invites University of Saskatchewan faculty members to step forward and offer to serve on university committees.

Our committees are the mechanism through which collegial university governance is achieved. Finding excellent people to serve on our committees is the job of the nominations committee. Our terms of reference direct us to find members who are broadly representative of the disciplines of the university. We select nominees for their experience, demonstrated commitment, and potential for a significant contribution to committee functions, and we strive for equity in representation.

Some vacancies must be filled by members of the University Council. Other vacancies are to be filled by members of the General Academic Assembly, to which all faculty and librarians belong. There are also three committees which include a sessional lecturer representative.

We try to appoint people for three-years terms.

To nominate yourself or to nominate someone else, use the nomination form and submit electronically,
or print the form and either mail to Office of the University Secretary, 212 Peter MacKinnon Building, or fax to 306-966-4530.

The deadline for nominations is Monday, April 1, 2013.

If you have questions about any of these committees, please ask a member of the nominations committee for more information. You will be contacted for confirmation before a nomination is made.
