  11. Comments • It is unreasonable to ask faculty to provide “ a great deal of effort” beyond normal expectations. • One problem is that faculty does not have a strong identity. • I used to strongly agree, but time and non-appreciation wear you down. • I do and will continue to do so.

  12. Comments • Yes, with the limited resources available, we have done exceedingly well. • Not with the incumbent dean. • I have great respect for the current administration of the College, yet I find myself talking about my commitment to my department. • The working relationship between the College of Medicine and the Saskatoon Health Region is completely dysfunctional.

  13. Comments • There seems at times to be an adversarial relationship between the administration of the college and the clinical faculty. • Loyalty to the College results from my gratitude for the opportunities provided. • I dislike loyalty statements.

  14. Comments • I would readily and gladly accept any duties which I can perform competently. I would hesitate a bit about duties for which I am not trained. • Totally depends on if I am asked or if the assignment is done in a dictatorial way. • Are you kidding? Let’s hope things don’t come to this.

  15. Comments • Yes, the chemistry is very much there. Values match is crucial. • There are a few rotten eggs, but administrative decisions tend to be general rather than dealing with the spoilage. • In general, the statement is accurate. However, my concern is that the CoM does not put enough emphasis on research.

  16. Comments • I used to be. I am not proud anymore. I am too disappointed in the College’s administration, especially the Dean. • People frequently ask me where I work and I proudly refer to the College of Medicine and the U of S. • On a national committee I was asked how to be acknowledged. I said Royal University Hospital. • The administration leads a College that is concerned about social justice in its broadest sense, and I am very proud to be part of that.

  17. Comments • Integration of SHR and the College has resulted in loss of our identification, our democratic process, and our philosophical identification with the College. • We have to think back and owe our responsibility to the people of the Province and not take more than we deserve. • One develops a sense of loyalty to the institution one is situated in…This is certainly true for me here. But precisely, one develops attachments to the people in the institution.

  18. Comments • I am inspired by the College, but I think that we all have to accept responsibility for our own attitudes and actions. • The students and patients inspire me. • I feel supported, encouraged and challenged (in a positive way) by the College of Medicine senior leadership. The same is sometimes not true at other levels of leadership. • I no longer want to contribute to the college, the faculty have been disenfranchised.

  19. Comments • Great things are happening here. • I would only leave if obliged to. • A great amount of change is needed for me to want to stay in the college. I hear similar comments from my colleagues. • I have found a fit of values, career advancement opportunities and a sense that I can make a difference.

  20. Comments • Coming to the College of Medicine, U of S was the worst decision of my professional life. • I had numerous other opportunities but considered working here in the College as an important commitment to the people of Saskatchewan. It has not been easy, but the rewards are considerable. • I am glad I am here.

  21. Comments • Why would anybody want to leave when we are on the threshold of growth and positive developments. • There is tremendous potential to build a remarkable medical school at our current crossroads. A lot of work and networking will need to be invested but the opportunity is unique.

  22. Comments • No one agrees with any institution’s policies all the time. • It depends on the issue. • It is not the policies so much as the processes that are problematic. • Mostly, I am on board. I am completely on board with the mission, vision and strategy.

  23. Comments • The CoM is key to the University’s success and to the quality of life in Saskatchewan. • Used to. Gave up. It seems administration does not care about people. • Caring is a two way street. I hope the CoM cares about its faculty and their fate. The CoM needs to be faculty-centered.

  24. Comments • The best place at the U of S or any other university. • SHR is much better, open and transparent. • I am completely satisfied. • There are going to be issues anywhere – but I feel supported here.

  25. Comments • No. This has been a good move for me and my family. • Simply not true for me. • Even on bad days, working for the College would be difficult to view as a mistake. • Regrets are unscientific. One can never know how things would have gone if different choices had been made.
