Audited Financial Statements & Findings Report Approved<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 2021-22 consolidated financial statements which were audited by our external auditors KPMG LLP and the audit findings report were approved by the Board.

The report indicated there were no significant changes or differences requiring adjustment and the statements were presented fairly, in all materials respects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Provost and Vice-President (Academic) Term Extended<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Executive Committee of the Board of Governors has approved the extension of Jerry Tomberlin\u2019s mandate as Provost and Vice-President (Academic) for an additional, final year until June 30, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
