The public college in Calgary, Canada, established an Ombuds office for the 2007-08 academic year and appointed Judy Collins, R.N., B.Ed., M.Ed., as the first Ombudsperson. The office serves faculty, staff and students (including 12,000 undergraduates). The new website, which went online this week, links to the Forum of Canadian Ombudsman, International Ombudsman Institute, and The Association of Canadian College and University Ombudspersons. Collins serves on the board of Canadian Association for the Prevention of Discrimination and Harassment in Higher Education and also works as Mount Royal’s Human Rights Officer.
