Report to Donors 2014-2015
MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
T
his past year was a landmark one for the University of Regina because
we launched a new strategic plan. Entitled peyak aski kikawinaw, which in
the Cree language means “We are one with Mother Earth,” this strategic plan is
centred on the idea that “Together, we are stronger.”
peyak aski kikawinaw has three main areas of priority: Student Success,
Research Impact, and Commitment to Our Communities. In addition, it has
two overarching themes – Indigenization and Sustainability – that will be
central to our academic mission in the years to come.
Over the past year, as donors you have made meaningful contributions to the
University of Regina, and in doing so, you are helping us realize the objectives
of our new strategic plan for the benefit of students and communities in
Saskatchewan, across Canada, and around the world.
As the University of Regina moves into the next phase of its development
– with record enrolments, exciting new programs, and a strong vision for
the future – we will continue working with our donors to educate the next
generation of leaders in Saskatchewan and beyond.
Dr. Vianne Timmons
President and
Vice-Chancellor
The renewal of our historic College Avenue campus will remain a priority as we
expand our outreach in the wider community. Developing new scholarships
and bursaries will be critical as we work to make a University of Regina
education accessible to everyone, including Canada’s Aboriginal students who
have traditionally been underserved in our country’s education system. And
we will do our utmost to ensure that we continue to have affordable tuition,
relevant programs, and world-class facilities for our students.
As a supporter of the University of Regina, you understand that “Together,
we are stronger.” Thank you for belief in the University of Regina and our
students.

STUDENT AID
Aspiring students apply to the University of Regina in search
of their dream of becoming a successful professional.
Scholarships, awards and bursaries have made those dreams
possible because of your generosity. Between May 2014 and
April 2015, nearly 5,100 students were awarded more than
$7 million in student support.
You have ignited a passion for Aboriginal student support this
past year by raising
$75,050 in support for the Neekaneewak
Leadership and Oma Program. Over 4,000 students have
participated in and benefited from these programs. The
students were able to experience mentorship and workshops
to propel them forward through their academic career. The
programs will continue to support and provide the tools
necessary to cultivate our future leaders.
THANK YOU!
I rely on support to reduce
my financial burdens and
receiving assistance has
allowed me to concentrate
on my research. Your
generosity has inspired me
to help others by giving
back to the community and
I hope I will be able to help
other students achieve
their goals just as you
have helped me.
- Yan Zhang
With not a lot of income coming in,
the scholarship really helped to reduce
student loan debt… it was a huge
burden off our shoulders. Donating to the
University gives mature adults going back
to school an opportunity where there may
not have been one before financially.

Undergraduate Student, Faculty of Arts

THE
COLLEGE AVENUE CAMPUS
RENEWAL PROJECT
Our vision for the renewal of our College Avenue Campus is
ambitious – to build upon the legacy left to us by the citizens of our
province more than a century ago. It has remained an important part
of the economic, educational, and cultural life of our province, and
will continue to do so with generous support from our donors.
Please help us continue
to provide programming
in the heart of Regina.
This place is incredible. Everyone would benefit from a
renewed College Avenue Campus.

WHY WE GIVE
This campus helped us to settle our lives in Regina.
I felt it was time for us to give back.
- Renu Kapoor
A donation to the University of Regina will help revitalize
the campus to a space that inspires students to create,
grow and develop.
- Margaret Anne Hodges
Education in general is extremely important not only
to the individuals who are educated but their ability
to play a constructive role in society.
- Dr. Bev Robertson
A donation was a way for me to invest in my future
but also the future of other students coming to the
University.

Undergraduate Student, Faculty of Business Administration

YOUR DONATIONS IMPROVE OUR UNIVERSITY
The programming affects everything from the conservatory,
to people who are 6 years old, to the lifelong learning
centre, to people who are 90 years plus. The community
connection is really strong on campus.
- Neil Paskewitz
Director of Planning, Design and Construction
At the University of Regina we excel in research
impact and international research collaborations
and we are ranked number one in the category
among comprehensive universities.
