Selecting a Chancellor
The Chancellor role entails several duties, including service on both the 카지노게임사이트 Council and Board of Trustees and related committees for each body. Chancellors also preside over convocation ceremonies, confer degrees, and serve on the Senate committee that deliberates the bestowing of honorary degrees each year. The Chancellor also plays a central role in connecting with Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s alumni, hosting dignitaries, and selecting the institution카지노 게임 컬렉션s Principal.
The selection of Chancellors is led by an advisory committee chaired by Principal and Vice-Chancellor Patrick Deane and composed of voting and non-voting members from a wide set of groups across campus, including from university governance bodies, student representatives, faculty, staff, alumni, and donors. Non-voting members include a representative from the 카지노게임사이트 Secretariat and the Office of the Vice-Principal (Culture, Equity, and Inclusion).
The advisory committee assesses each candidate, and recommends one who meets requirements, such as having a significant relationship with the university, representing the institution카지노 게임 컬렉션s values, and being a person of national presence, among others. The committee then recommends a candidate to the Principal, who carries forward the recommendation to 카지노게임사이트 Council for its vote.
