Department Survey Results 1995-96

Abstract

A new thirty-eight-question department survey was sent by Bill Waiser (Head, Saskatchewan) to fifty-one universities in the late winter of 1996; thirty-five replies were received (68% return rate). The responses were used by Dave De Brou and Jean Horosko of Saskatchewan to generate twenty-two tables. The following is a summary of some of the findings for the period 1993-94 to 1995-96.

Seventeen heads or department representatives attended the annual department heads meeting (chaired by Bill Waiser of Saskatchewan) at Brock University on May 30, 1996. Local arrangements, including lunch, were kindly handled by John Sainsbury of the Brock History Department.
