A draft Declaration of Student Rights written by student representatives from the University of Ottawa undergraduate student federation (SFUO), graduate student association (GSAED), and Vice-President Governance Diane Davidson has been published at http://www.uottawa.ca/governance/consultation/ A consultation period with the university community began on March 23, 2010 and ends on April 16, 2010. This document was created from serious concerns that the consultation period for the draft Declaration is too short and must be extended into the Fall 2010 semester to allow for adequate student participation in the formulation of the Declaration. Please sign the petition asking VP-Governance Davidson to extend the consultation period into the Fall 2010 semester at: http://www.petitiononline.com/UORights/petition.html
