The University committee that worked this past year to prepare the Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 did just that. As a result, we have a document that will help Lakehead University maintain its momentum and position itself for the immediate future when it welcomes a new President in 2010. The four pillars of the Strategic Plan - Sustainability of the University, Comprehensiveness of the Academy, Research Growth, and Diversity - are built upon many practices already in place, and will ensure that the institution takes advantage of opportunities to come. Frederick F. Gilbert, PhD President and Vice-Chancellor This year marks the graduation of the Charter Class of the Northern Ontario School of Medicine. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all those who helped celebrate this and other important milestones this year, and thank those who continue to realize their potential through their association with Lakehead University. Lakehead University �Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 When Dr. Fred Gilbert steps down in 2010 after almost 12 years of service as President and Vice-Chancellor of Lakehead University, the institution will have a plan that embodies a renewed vision for the future. The Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 was developed this year at the request of the Board of Governors to provide continuity between the existing administration and the new administration. It sets out four interrelated strategic directions which Lakehead University must focus on: ( 1) Sustainability of the University (2) Comprehensiveness of the Academy (3) Research Growth and (4) Diversity. Within each of these four strategic directions there are objectives and targets along with rationales and expectations. President Gilbert notes that this strategic plan sets out clear objectives and does so in a way that is more encompassing than previous strategic plans. In essence, it is a plan that shows that Lakehead University, learning from its past, better understands its direction and sets the guideposts to achieve its ends. Strategic planning is an evolutionary process. The Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 is built on two earlier strategic plans, and includes many ideas contained in Academic Plan 2006 and Momentum for Future Prosperity: Lakehead University's Strategic Research Plan 2007-2012. Ultimately, Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 provides continuity between administrations. It will be a valuable guiding document for the next President, the Board of Governors, the Senate, and the University community. Lakehead University Annual Report 2008-2009 SUSTAINABILITY OF THE UNIVERSITY The key to realizing financial sustainability of the University is to achieve greater efficiencies without jeopardizing academic integrity. Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 identifies many ideas for change - on both the academic and administrative sides of the campus. Objective: Recognizing that Lakehead University needs to increase student numbers at both campuses, it is recommended that the enrolment target based on head count in the fall/ winter termfor 2010 be 8,500 students (1,100 of these at the Orillia Campus) and for 2013 be 9,000 students (1 ,500 of these at the Orillia Campus). Furthermore, 10% of the students on the Thunder Bay Campus would be at the graduate level. Such an enrolment increase should not be at the expense of academic standards. One idea to achieve financial sustainability is the consolidation of courses and the reduction of course offerings with low enrolment. Another is the renaming or repackaging of courses and programs. How Lakehead moves forward beginning in 2010 will be decided, in large part, by Deans' Council - a committee chaired by the VicePresident (Academic) and Provost, and comprising the Deans of each of Lakehead's nine Faculties, the Dean of the Orillia Campus, as well as the University Librarian, the Vice-Provost (Aboriginal Initiatives), and the ViceProvost (Student Affairs). The process of rationalizing its academic offerings gives Lakehead University the opportunity to enrich and enhance the comprehensiveness of its academy. While some may balk at the idea of changing old familiar ways, rationalization will allow Lakehead to be more strategic in the deployment of its teaching resources without jeopardizing academic quality. COMPREHENSIVENESS OF THE ACADEMY The word "comprehensiveness" in the context of Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 refers to the depth and breadth of academic programming at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and the delivery of that programming in a variety of ways, including distributed learning (distance education). Key objectives pertaining to Lakehead University - Orillia Campus illustrate the particular ways in which sustainability is linked to comprehensiveness in the Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013: Objective: Programs offered at both Lakehead University campuses will be developed to complement and enhance one another. Objective: Academic planning and implementation at Lakehead University will require collaboration among relevant academic units, committees, and administrative offices at both campuses. Objective: Students on both campuses and at a distance will be exposed to the rich resources available at both campuses and via CEDL ( Continuing Education and Distributed Learning). Objective: Lakehead University, building on existing international relationships and alumni/ae relations, will seek out structured programming for student and faculty exchanges, collaborative research/outreach and joint development of academic courses with a global focus. Not only will the Orillia Campus enable Lakehead University to increase its enrolment and therefore become more economically viable, it will give Lakehead the opportunity to develop new courses and programs, and experiment with new ways of offering them. �--Grant Walsh Champions of Environmental Sustainability Alex Boulet is working to enhance the culture of sustainability and environmental consciousness on campus. As the Lakehead University Student Union's first fulltime Sustainability Commissioner, he is building on a number of "green" initiatives that have been implemented by his peers - initiatives such as carpooling, community gardening, composting, and drinking tap water instead of bottled water. This year, for example, Boulet has been collaborating with University staff to ensure that student orientation events are organized in an environmentally friendly way. Top: Architects Moriyama & Teshima designed the first academic building at the Lakehead University - Orillia Campus to meet the LEED Platinum standard for sustainability. Bottom: Lakehead is expanding the Grant Walsh is Executive Director, University Services, and Chair of the Lakehead University Sustainability Committee, comprising representatives from students and faculty as well as staff in Physical Plant, Residence, Communications, Food Services, Bookstore, and Printing and Mail Services. "The challenge," says Walsh, "is to make our operations more sustainable within the constraints of a limited budget." number of distributed learning course offerings, recognizing that courses offered online, by videoconferencing, and media streaming appeal to students who are place-bound as well "Sometimes it's the little things that make a real difference," he says, "Cutting back on air conditioning during the summer months. Installing more drinking fountains to reduce the need for bottled water. Ensuring that every photocopier on campus is equipped to use 100% recycled paper. And diverting e-waste to a company certified by the Ontario Electronics Stewardship Program as a collector and consolidator of electronic waste and electronic equipment." As a signatory to the Talloires Declaration, Lakehead University is committed to being a world leader among universities in developing, creating, supporting, and maintaining sustainability. ■ as those who want extra time or a more convenient time to take courses. �The expectation that Lakehead will continue its journey toward becoming a more sustainable university within a comprehensive academy is based on the recognition that many successful initiatives have already been undertaken. Lakehead University is building a LEED Platinum energyefficient campus in Orillia set to open in September 2010. Renewals to the Thunder Bay Campus have resulted in dramatic reductions in energy use, energy cost, and greenhouse gas emissions. And there are other student-driven "green" initiatives under way that encourage the campus community to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 sets out clear objectives in other areas relating to sustainability: improving recruitment, retention, and student satisfaction levels; developing a functioning program to enhance student awareness of, and involvement in, the activities of the Lakehead University Alumni Association; implementing dynamic, modem, and measurable communication strategies to market the University to students and potential donors; and educating faculty on technology transfer opportunities. All in all, Lakehead is committed to developing academic and administrative budgets that are fiscally balanced. In the final analysis, the growth imperative that pervades the Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 centres around making Lakehead University more attractive, raising its profile, and ensuring that students are satisfied with the education they receive. RESEARCH GROWTH Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 incorporates Lakehead University's goal of becoming one of the top 25 research-intensive universities in Canada in the next 5 to 10 years. Many significant achievements this year, including the launch of the Biorefining Research Initiative and the allocation of two new Tier 1 Canada Research Chairs (one of which has been split into two Tier 2 Chairs), show that Lakehead is on the right track. Lakehead University Annual Report 2008-2009 Objective: By 2013, Lakehead University will increase its overall research funding level with a target of$24M. In November 2008, Research Infosource Inc. announced that Lakehead had placed third in the University Income Growth 2002-2007 category, and 30th in Canada's Top 50 Research Universities in 2008, up from 33rd place in 2007. Moreover, the report issued by Research lnfosource indicated that Lakehead University's sponsored research income over the past five years had increased by an enviable 107%. This is an excellent accomplishment by any standard and shows that Lake head's strategic objective of increasing its overall research funding level by one third by 2013 is fully achievable. In a fiscally challenged environment, universities must declare areas of research focus in order to increase research capacity and compete nationally for funds from programs supported by the Tri-Councils and the Canada Foundation for Innovation. Lakehead University has identified seven strategic research areas of advantage and strength: ( 1) Aboriginal Studies (2) Advanced Technology Systems (3) Biotechnology and Material Science (4) Culture and Society (5) Environmental and Resource-based Development, Education, and Policy (6) Health Research Across the Life Span, and (7) Northern Studies. Going forward, Lakehead will continue to ensure that the recruitment of new faculty members emphasizes the candidate's research potential and excellence, in addition to their teaching competence, in consideration of Lakehead's strategic research priorities. DIVERSITY Diversity is the most challenging of the four strategic directions identified in the Lakehead University Strategic Plan 2010-2013 because it demands that Lakehead ask not only what it needs to do to enhance the cultural diversity of its community, but also what it should be doing. All segments of the University community must be committed to, engaged in, and evaluated on the initiatives and measures they take to make Lakehead University a more diverse place. Objective: Lakehead University will establish a "Culture Across the Curriculum" initiative that encourages faculty to introduce where appropriate course materials related to cultural fra meworks, theories, and understanding. Lakehead's diverse faculty and its Aboriginal, domestic, and international students are a source of human excellence, cultural enrichment, and social strength. There is always more that can be done to promote awareness, understanding, and respect for diverse cultures. Targeted recruitment and cultural support programs, innovation in the development of culturally sensitive and appropriate curricula, and expanded global interaction are some examples. Expectation: Lakehead University will implement the requirement that all students prior to graduating fro m Lakehead University take one course fro m an offering of several courses across the curriculum on awareness and understanding of diverse cultures, with a strong emphasis on Aboriginal interests. This requirement would be implemented by September 2012. The Senate academic committees will determine the criteria for such a course and the Senate Undergraduate Studies Committee will evaluate which courses meet these criteria. Lakehead University has the expertise to become a vital player in the international development area. Engaging globally requires a dedicated effort to reach measurable results with respect to student recruitment, collaborative research, faculty and student exchanges as well as larger format development programming with a direct focus on the United Nations Millennium Development Goals activities. Lakehead is committed to developing and enhancing its students' international cultural experiences, growth, and understanding, as part of enabling students to reach their full potential and to be responsible global citizens. ■ �--Stan Beardy Tim Pile Academic Programs to Meet 21 st Century Needs Top: Danielle Eras and Kartar Kalsi both graduated in The proposal to create a Faculty of Law at Lakehead University with a focus on access to justice in northern and rural communities, natural resources law, and Aboriginal law is under continuing consideration. The new law school would redress declining participation in sole and small firm practices, enhance access to a legal education by northern Ontario students, and address legal issues arising from the resource-based northern Ontario economy.

Bottom: For the first time, a Lakehead team competes at the Formula SAE® Student Competition at Stan Beardy, Grand Chief of the Nishnawbe Aski Nation, believes that having a law school at Lakehead University will make it possible for Aboriginal people to acquire the skills needed to be significant players in the future development of the region's natural resources, such as tourism, mining, forestry, hydroelectricity, and water. "Ontario must invest in legal education now so that future development in this region will be successful," he says. "If Aboriginal people cannot participate and have meaningful employment in the new economy, it will have a negative impact on all sectors." Tim Pile, Secretary-Treasurer of The Metis Nation of Ontario and a member of the Lakehead University Board of Governors, believes that developing a law school will further enhance the comprehensive nature of Lakehead University. For him, the issue is social accountability. "It is important that lawyers working with First Nation, Metis, and Inuit people have a good understanding of Aboriginal history and culture," says Pile. ■ the Michigan International Speedway, places 43rd out of 120 teams, and wins the Rookie of the Year Award. �Mary Lou Kelley Bottom: Two Canada Research Research Focus on Areas of Strength Chairs ( CR Cs) are appointed in 2008: Gregory Pyle, Canada Research Chair in The Centre for Education and Research on Aging and Health (CERAH) is one of several research centres at Lakehead University that is increasing its productivity. Environmental Biotechnology and Ecotoxicology, and Alla Reznik, Canada Research Chair in the Physics of Molecular Imaging. Lakehead Research funding for CERAH has more than tripled in the past two years, culminating with an award this year of close to $1M from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada for a Community-University Research Alliance (CURA) project entitled Improving Quality of Life for People Dying in Long-Term Care Homes. University has 11 Canada Research Chairs. Immediate past CERAH Director and current lead researcher on the project, Dr. Mary Lou Kelley, says the main aim of this research is to create a community-university research alliance that will improve the quality of life for those living in long-term care. The research is being done in partnership with St. Joseph's Care Group in Thunder Bay and 30 organizations across Canada. "Residents of long-term care homes represent one of society's most frail and marginalized populations," she says. "Much can be done to support them and their families when they face end-of-life issues." Palliative care is a new and specialized program of care for the patient and family that encompasses disease management; pain and symptom management; psychological, social, and spiritual needs; end-of-life care and planning; and dealing with mourning, loss, and grief. Kelley values the strong community partnerships that exist throughout Northwestern Ontario, as well as the outstanding team of students, staff, and researchers based at Lakehead. ■ 6 Lakehead University Annual Report 2008-2009 �--Tanka Awosika Different Perspectives Foster Global View Top: To celebrate playwright Tomson Highway's visit to The first point of contact for any international student coming to Lakehead is Tanka Awosika. As a Lakehead University graduate and now the institution's International Student Advisor, each year he helps approximately 130 international students from over 40 different countries settle in Thunder Bay. Thunder Bay in the fall of 2008, two cabarets are staged by the Office of Aboriginal Initiatives, raising $28,000 for Aboriginal education Having been an international student in Canada himself for nine years, Awosika understands well the many challenges that Lakehead international students face. From his vantage point, he would like to see more opportunities for members of the academic community to enhance their intercultural awareness. and cultural programs and Aboriginal literacy. Bottom: The Protector, a painting His first chance to influence change came several years ago when an instructor in the Faculty of Education asked him to speak with student teachers in their professional year. Awosika's approach was to fashion a workshop that included time for him to share his experiences as an international student in Toronto and Thunder Bay. Since then, he has given close to 20 workshops, mostly to undergraduate students, student ambassadors, residence assistants, and the staff in Human Resources, and Admissions and Recruitment. "I try to increase awareness of our differences as they pertain to culture within the University," he says. "Sometimes these differences are visible - such as accent, vocabulary, clothes, and skin color - but often these cultural differences are invisible. They are attitudes, values, and beliefs - all the things that lie beneath the surface." ■ by Woodlands artist Norval Morrisseau, hangs in the Advanced Technology and Academic Centre as a symbol of Lakehead's commitment to diversity. �Year In Review University Governance An international search is launched to find a new President and ViceChancellor of Lakehead University to take office in 2010.
