The Executive and Finance Committee also considers the financial position of the University. It makes recommendations to Senate on budget planning as well as on the details of the annual University operating budget as prepared for presentation to Senate and the Board. The recommendations of Senate on that budget are forwarded to the Board of Governors, the body with ultimate fiduciary responsibility for the University. The agenda will be posted approximately one week in advance of the meeting and approved minutes will follow once approved at the subsequent meeting. Full agenda packages can be accessed by staff and faculty on Laurier Connect. For questions or concerns please contact Sarah McLellan.	Senate

3:00 PM - 5:30 PM	Maya Ombasic reads from 'Mostarghia' The WLU Centre for Memory and Testimony Studies and the Department of English and Film Studies present: A reading from and discussion of Maya Ombasic's award-winning auto-fictional memoir, Mostarghia (Biblioasis, 2019) "A portmanteau of Mostar and nostalgia, Mostarghia evokes Ombasic’s yearning for a place that no longer exists: the city before the civil war, when its many ethnicities interacted in a spirit of civility and in harmony. It refers as well to Andrei Tarkovsky’s classic film Nostalghia, the viewing of which illuminated the author’s often explosive relationship with her father, a larger-than-life figure who was both influence and psychological burden" Light refreshments provided. All are welcome. The organizers wish to thank the Dean of Arts office for additional support for this event.	Faculty of Arts ~Other/Community Based
