JEFF KESHEN, PhD, became the University of Regina’s eighth President and Vice-Chancellor on July 1, 2021.

He joined the University after serving for three-and-a-half years as Vice-President of Memorial University of Newfoundland’s Grenfell Campus in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador. Previously he served as Dean of the Faculty of Arts at Mount Royal University in Calgary. He has also served as Chair of the Department of History at the University of Ottawa, and was an Adjunct Professor in the Centre of Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.

Throughout his career, Dr. Keshen has had great success developing programs that encourage leadership in young people, including programming for vulnerable and Indigenous students. He has also been the driving force behind initiatives that recognize workplace excellence, promote professional development, and increase employee satisfaction.

At the University of Regina, his priorities include: enhancing the institution’s national reputation; building on existing successes in research, Reconciliation, and Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion; expanding experiential learning opportunities for students; and enhancing overall student satisfaction.

Dr. Keshen holds a doctoral degree from York University with a research concentration in the history of war and conflict. He was the recipient of the Government of Ontario June Callwood Award for Outstanding Service in Volunteerism for his success in establishing the University of Ottawa’s Experiential Learning Service. He was a double nominee for the 3M National Teaching Fellowship Award, and was awarded both the Ontario Leadership in Teaching Prize and University of Ottawa’s Excellence in Education Prize.

Dr. Keshen has authored five books and more than 25 scholarly articles, and has edited 11 books. His book Propaganda and Censorship in Canada’s Great War was awarded the best nonfiction book by the Writers’ Guild of Alberta. It was also shortlisted for the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences’ (CFHSS) Harold Adams Innis Prize for the best book in the Social Sciences. His book Saints, Sinners and Soldiers: Canada’s Second World War was shortlisted for the CFHSS’s Raymond Klibansky Prize for the best book in the Humanities.

The book was also recognized with the C.P. Stacey Prize for the best book in the military history category.

Dr. Keshen and his wife Deborah Moynes-Keshen have two children, Maddie and Jacob, both of whom attend the University of Regina.

During her time at school, she completed practicums at Valley Hill Youth Treatment Centre and the Ministry of Social Services, both of which occurred during the pandemic. Kyla is thankful for her experience at university and all those who helped her succeed. Beyond school, Kyla adopted her first dog in September 2020, a black and white Labrador cross given the name “Oreo.” Kyla has started her career at the Ministry of Social Services and plans to pursue her Master’s degree in the future.

UNIVERSITY OF REGINA

ACADEMIC REGALIA At live convocation ceremonies, the academic regalia worn by the graduates and the members of the platform procession may consist of a gown, a hood or stole (worn over the shoulders), and a hat or mortarboard. All universities have distinctive academic dress for each degree conferred and, at times, for the disciplines in which the degree is awarded.

With the exception of students graduating with a PhD and federated college students, graduates wear black gowns. PhD graduates’ gowns are scarlet with royal blue around the collar, down the front and around the sleeves.

Students graduating from the University of Regina who have been registered through a federated college wear the following: red gowns for Campion College students, sky blue gowns for First Nations University of Canada students, and royal blue gowns for Luther College students. Students are welcome to wear their Indigenous ceremonial dress, other cultural ceremonial dress, or their military or law enforcement dress uniform with, or instead of, the gown at the Convocation ceremonies.

The following is a list of the Undergraduate and Graduate degree hoods. The first and second squares represent the colour of the outside and inside trim, or lining, respectively. The third square represents the colour of the decorative cord.

UNIVERSITY OF REGINA

CEREMONIAL FURNITURE The three ceremonial chairs were a gift to the University of Regina from Dr. Terence R. McKague, Chancellor Emeritus, who served as Chancellor ran 1989-1995. The chairs were acquired from Carmichael United Church, Dr. McKague’s boyhood place of worship. This ceremonial furniture is incorporated into all official ceremonial functions.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF THE UNIVERSITY The University of Regina is situated on Treaty 4 lands with a presence in Treaty 6 territory. These are the territories of the nêhiyawak (Cree), Anihšinapek (Saulteaux), and Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda, and the homeland of the Métis. Today, these lands continue to be the shared territory of many diverse peoples from near and far.

The University of Regina operates under the terms of The University of Regina Act. Convocation comprises the Chancellor, the Senate, all graduates of the University of Regina, all graduates of the University of Saskatchewan at Regina Campus, and such other classes of persons as the Senate may from time to time determine. Convocation meets twice annually, in June and October, unless there are extraordinary circumstances.

The Chancellor is elected by the members of Senate, holds office for three years, presides over Convocation, confers degrees and is ex officio Chair of the Senate and a member of the Board of Governors.

Senate is the University’s “window on the world.” It is concerned with the academic welfare of the institution and has a variety of duties and powers. Most of the broader issues of academic policy within the University are reserved for Senate’s approval. In another role, it acts as an ultimate court in academic affairs. The membership of Senate includes

FALL 2021 39

persons ex officio, or by virtue of the University offices they hold. Convocation elects another fourteen members of Convocation to the Senate. Students registered in the University elect six students of the University to Senate. In addition, any professional society, group or organization in the province that Senate believes contributes in a significant way to the social, economic and cultural welfare of the province may be represented on Senate.

The Board of Governors consists of eleven members and is responsible for overseeing the administrative and business affairs of the University. It ultimately has authority in matters related to the raising and spending of University funds, and the acquisition and management of University property.

Council’s membership includes administrative officers, all Deans and directors of academic programs, all full-time members of the teaching staff, and a number of student representatives. All matters of substance related to the academic affairs of the University, as well as matters of academic discipline, must be considered and approved by the Council.

The Executive of the University of Regina Council (Executive of Council) has been empowered by Council to act on its behalf.

Executive of Council membership is devised as a proportional basis of the academic composition of this University.

Disciplines that are related to one another in the broader areas of teaching are, for purposes of administrative and academic planning, brought together into Faculties, of which there are currently ten. Each Faculty is headed by a Dean; formal membership includes the Dean and the teaching members of the various associated disciplines. The Deans are recognized

by The University of Regina Act as being the heads of their respective Faculties and are directly responsible to the President through the Provost and Vice-President (Academic).

Subject to the statutes of the Senate and the University of Regina Council, each Faculty has charge of all matters of scholarship in its disciplines and programs.
