The Board of Governors of The University of Lethbridge and The University of Lethbridge Faculty
Association recognize that the main purpose of the University are:
to promote the disinterested pursuit of truth and advancement of knowledge.
to promote the generation and transmission of knowledge with proper consideration
given to the need for a n educated citizenry.
and to give appropriate consideration to society's needs for expert advice as well as
pure and applied research.
The common good of society depends upon the search for truth and its free exposition. Academic
freedom in both teaching and research is essential to these purposes. Members are entitled to the
freedom to carry out research and to publish the results, to the freedom to teach and discuss their
subjects, and to the freedom from institutional censorship.
Academic freedom carries with it the duty to use that freedom in a responsible way.
Objectives
The main objectives of this Faculty Handbook are the specification of principles and procedures for
academic personnel decisions, the peaceful settlement of all disputes, misunderstandings and
grievances and the promotion of harmonious relations between the Board and the Association. The
Board and the Association acknowledge their joint responsibility for the reasonable and just
execution of the terms of the Handbook. Toward that end, any invocation of Articles 1 or 22
regarding a Handbook procedure in progress shall stay the procedure pending a resolution of the
interpretation or grievance. Any deadlines mentioned in this agreement may be varied by written
mutual consent prior to the deadline, by the Board and the Association and by the Member in cases
where the deadline affects the Member concerned.
