Memorial University has teaching and learning facilities across Newfoundland and Labrador, and abroad, giving you diverse choice of where to study. St. John’s is home to the largest campus of Memorial University. Studying in the province’s capital city provides access to a wide range of degree programs and the city’s cultural and recreational offerings. The Marine Institute, also located in St. John’s, is one of the world’s most respected centres for marine education and applied research. Specialized programs and individualized learning are a strong basis for a professional education in the global oceans sector. Newfoundland’s west coast is home to the Grenfell Campus of Memorial University. With about 1,250 students, Grenfell Campus offers a personalized education with degree programs in liberal arts and sciences, with a focus on the fine arts and the environment. This small campus is set among jaw dropping natural beauty with outdoor adventures on its doorstep. Also in the western region in the coastal community of Norris Point is the Bonne Bay Marine Station. This world-class education and research facility, operated by Memorial University and the Gros Morne Co-operating Association, is dedicated to increasing knowledge of marine ecology. To the north, the Labrador Institute has locations in Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Labrador City and North West River. As Memorial University’s presence in the Big Land, the Institute leads projects and programs to expand the Labrador knowledge base. Memorial University’s teaching and learning opportunities extend beyond the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. The ability to study in France is closer than imagined. Memorial University’s Programme Frecker provides the opportunity to experience French language and culture on the island of Saint-Pierre off the south coast of Newfoundland. In the United Kingdom, the Harlow Campus, nestled in the quaint town of Old Harlow, Essex, is a unique vantage point from which to study, research, and explore in the European Union. Moreover, Memorial University’s 450 distance education courses make it possible to extend your classroom beyond borders, enabling you to undertake academic exploration anywhere in the world.
Columbia first established an in-house legal department in 1974. Before 1974, an outside law firm acted as counsel to the University. During this period any member of the University Community seeking legal services called directly on outside counsel. Starting in the late 1960`s, the cost of this uncontrolled use of outside lawyers became very high. To control these costs, the inside legal department (now the Office of the General Counsel) has since coordinated all outside legal services. As part of this control, outside law firms can be retained only by the Office of the General Counsel (OGC) and bills for outside legal services will be paid only if the work was initiated or approved by OGC. To assure the integrity and independence of these decisions and of the legal services rendered to the University, the General Counsel reports directly to the President and the Trustees. OGC represents the legal interests of the entire University, including such geographically separate entities as the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Rockland County, Nevis Laboratories in Westchester County, Reid Hall in Paris, and the entire Columbia Medical Center (formerly Health Sciences campus) in Washington Heights. At present the office consists of the General Counsel, the Deputy General Counsel, 19 Associate General Counsels, an Assistant General Counsel, 3 paralegals, a Director of Budget & Human Resources, business manager, file manager, secretarial and clerical support staff and student help. The entire office resides in Low Library. The ongoing legal business of the University involves a broad array of services in connection with financings, contracts, trusts and estates, real estate and tax matters, labor and employment issues, commercial litigation, clinical trials, and science and technology agreements and licensing. All OGC attorneys are experienced in handling contract and general business legal matters, and all have a broad capability to handle the great variety of legal problems which arise in the context of a large university with substantial financial interests and real property ownership, in addition to the human problems which arise in the context of a large and diverse community.
