Board of Governors - APPENDIX II - November 25, 1999
FOR APPROVAL
Recommended: That the Board of Governors approve the establishment of the policy on Funding of Designated Faculty Fellowships shown in Annex 1, as recommended by the Senate.
Background:
The University has had a policy on the funding of Academic Chairs and Professorships [Policy 2.22] for a number of years. Chairs and Professorships can be supported in perpetuity from an endowment, or on a term-funded basis. The proposed policy on Faculty Fellowships parallels the policy on Chairs and Professorships, but requires less in the way of endowment or term funding. The minimum annual revenue required to support a designated Chair is $100,000 and for a Professorship it is $50,000 to $100,000. Based on a five per cent real rate of return in the case of an endowed chair, the size of the endowment for a Chair would be a minimum of $2 million, and for a Professorship, $1-$2 million. By comparison, a gift in the range of $200,000 - $1,000,000 will provide the required annual income of $10,000 - $50,000 for a Faculty Fellowship. The unique feature of Faculty Fellowships is that one of the ways they may be used is as a supplement to the fellowship holder's salary, at the discretion of the Dean.
Recommended: That the Board of Governors approve the establishment of The MBA '83 Faculty Fellowship under the terms of reference shown on Annex 2, based on a $125,000 donation by the MBA Class of 1983, as recommended by the Senate.
Recommended: That the Board of Governors approve the establishment of the W. Glenn Campbell Faculty Fellow in the Department of Economics, Faculty of Social Science, as recommended by the Senate.
