The Presidential Task Force on Accessibility to University Education was struck by president Alastair Summerlee this fall to examine the various financial, social and academic issues that affect accessibility to higher education both at U of G and systemwide. The task force has a mandate to make recommendations for the University to consider as part of a strategic plan to improve accessibility.
The interim report is based on a literature review conducted by the task force in the fall semester. Comments regarding the report should be sent to the task force, care of the Office of the Provost, provost@uoguelph.ca.
