Non-Confidence in Senior KPU Leadership: Discussion at KFA AGM May 1st

Dear KFA Colleagues,

The KFA Table Officers have been asked by numbers of faculty members to host a non-confidence vote in the senior leadership of KPU. For information, discussion, and input purposes, we have added this matter as an agenda item to our KFA Annual General Meeting on May 1st.

The Vancouver Island University Faculty Association (VIUFA) called for a vote of non-confidence in their President in conjunction with a VIU Student’s Union call for the removal of the VIU President . The result was that the their President subsequently resigned. To help facilitate discussion, we have invited VIUFA President Gara Pruesse to speak to their experience and process.

This can be an effective strategy to usher in change, but how do KPU Faculty feel? Do we still have confidence in our senior leadership to navigate us through the tough times ahead? Please attend the meeting to share your thoughts! We welcome your feedback and direction on this crucial matter.

In solidarity,

Mark Diotte

President, Kwantlen Faculty Association
