I see far too many of my fellow students stressed, anxious, and/or depressed. The workload is too high and the stipend far too low considering the time required to complete a PhD. I also find academic culture tends to focus on criticism rather than appreciation, and student self-confidence tends to be very low. For these reasons I am leaving academia and advise people considering a PhD to avoid it, at least until conditions improve.

Student stipends really need to be adjusted for inflation. Graduate students are paid well below minimum wage, and often have to take on multiple secondary jobs during their studies just to get by.

Stipends and international tuition fees major issue

Funding is a major problem. Inconsistent funding over the years is extremely stressful for students and impedes meeting academic and career goals.

Our stipends as graduate students is not enough given the cost of living and rent in Montreal

I have experienced a consistent hostile

environment since my arrival here, and

I believe that it is quietly tolerated.

Something that I feel would benefit a lot of people in this milieu is formal training of *all* supervisors in people management skills. …As a teaching institution, I believe McGill has to implement a more holistic view on what it means to teach and to learn. I believe the Faculty of Medicine has the opportunity to take the lead in this initiative.

I appreciate the explicit effort McGill administrators have made to address issues of sexual harassment and prejudice. Things aren't perfect of course … I hope to see more transparency and accountability, … the changes I've seen make me proud to be a member of the McGill community.

The instances of sexual harassment and assault are still very high at McGill and many students don't feel comfortable coming forward when they experience sexual violence.

Student perspective: What would you like to see in a post-pandemic program delivery?

Anne-Sophie Pépin, B.Sc., Ph.D. candidate, Department of Pharmacology & Therapeutics

Faculty Council, February 23, 2021

Page 40: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

What would you like to see in a post-pandemic program delivery?

• Blended learning

• Online lectures (or at least option to watch recordings and/or join class virtually)

• Laboratory courses and small classes: in-person

• Research seminars: more accessible online, virtual platforms allow to invite international speakers

• Current evaluation methods (take-home exams/assignments) • Test understanding rather than memorization

• Office hours: more accessible when online

• More support for TAs

• Student engagement: inside vs outside the classroom

Survey sent to student associations in the Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences – over 70 responses

40

Page 41: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

• Advantages of remote learning

• Flexibility: reduced transit time, better work/family/study balance

• Easier for students with family, caregivers, students who live far, with part/full-time jobs, etc.

• Self-paced with recordings: especially for difficult courses and for students with disabilities

• Hybrid (asynchronous+synchronous): allow for more discussions/questions during class

• No need to worry to miss any content as when sitting at the back of the classroom!

• No need for a doctor’s note for health or family caregiving reasons – Grades should not

depend on in-person attendance (especially when sick with a cold, for e.g.!)

What would you like to see in a post-pandemic program delivery?

41

Page 42: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

Conclusions

• Blended learning as a method of choice for future program delivery• More inclusive approach

• A more formal/detailed survey would be useful

• Feedback from Teaching Assistants is needed

A comprehensive strategy to address learner mistreatment in the clinical learning environment

Annette Majnemer, OT, PhD, FCAHSVice-Dean, Education

Page 52: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

To ensure a safe, supportive and stimulating learning environment that promotes learner vitality and recognizes excellence in teaching

• Mistreatment can include belittlement, intimidation, humiliation, hostility, or any physical or psychological harassment or discrimination

• Defined on the WELL Office website: https://www.mcgill.ca/thewelloffice/learning-environment/report-mistreatment

➢ Health and safety, a priority for 2020

o Which stakeholders should be involved in minimizing mistreatment behaviors?➢Roles and responsibilities

FRAMEWORK

Page 54: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

A collective approach involving key stakeholders

Page 55: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

Clinical ChairsROLE RESPONSIBILITIES (how)

Prevent

PRIMARY

• Chairs (or delegates) should work with Faculty Development to initiate programs for their faculty members that will identify and address factors influencing mistreatment in the learning environment

• Cultivate a culture that minimizes mistreatment; determine avenues for confidential peer (faculty) reporting of mistreatment to the Chair

• Chairs will receive training to ensure they are able to take ownership of mistreatment prevention. If the Chair is aware that a problem is emerging, they can reach out to the relevant Associate Dean and/or to Academic Affairs to discuss strategies to prevent worsening

• Chairs should work in collaboration with their departmental and institutional leadership (e.g. associate chairs, Director of Education, Director of Professional Services) in the promotion of a healthy work environment

Identify/Monitor

COLLABORATOR

• Chairs (or delegates) will be made aware by Respectful Environment Lead(s) (in writing) of any single critical incident or recurrent patterns of mistreatment involving a faculty member

• Chairs must then meet with the individual to discuss the alleged mistreatment and develop a plan to address the issue. In some cases, this might be a minor, one time complaint and the Chair should refer to the Clinical Chair guidebook for next steps. Should this require further intervention, this must be followed up with a letter sent to the faculty member, with copy to the Office for Respectful Environments, acknowledging that the meeting occurred, describing what was discussed, and specifying the plan, including follow-up. A template letter is available, if needed.

• If a clinician (not a faculty member), ensure that action is being taken by the healthcare institution

Intervene

PRIMARY

• Chairs work closely with Academic Affairs and Associate Deans in determining the intervention strategies for individuals or units implicated in learner mistreatment

• Chairs should be actively involved in leading and organizing interventions that involve groups within a unit/division or the whole department

Page 56: Faculty Council & Town Hall Meeting 02/23/2021

CommunicationsROLE MECHANISMS

Prevent

COLLABORATOR

• Develop brand and strategy in partnership with Deanery Executive Office for Respectful Environments and WELL Office and supports launch of updated framework

• In partnership with the Schools, Office for Respectful Environments and WELL Office, refresh messages and materials at the start of every academic year, highlighting any changes

• Support the WELL Office, Office for Respectful Environments and Schools to help develop targeted communication addressing mistrust

• Supports the Deanery Executive to ensure Code of Conduct acknowledgement is hardwired across the Faculty, all faculty, staff and students

Identify/MonitorCOLLABORATOR

• In partnership with the Schools and Office for Respectful Environments, create a plan and template for reporting to learners twice per year; determine dates and target audience

Intervene

COLLABORATOR

• Lead any media-related needs, working closely with Associate Deans (external)• Standby messages: Play an advisory role as needed at the local level in support of

leadership and program directors, i.e. strategy/messaging, support (internal)
