ITSS has updated the process for purchasing and setting up computer equipment for faculty and staff across campus. (Note: These changes do not apply to lab or classroom computers.)  These updates further support the existing

To improve efficiency and manage costs, ITSS will now only purchase standard equipment for new hires and computer replacements. This includes Windows laptops and desktops with i5 processors, 16 GB RAM, and 256 GB SSDs. Full details are available on the .

Departments seeking non-standard equipment must submit a request through the normal . Upon ITSS review and quote, purchases must be covered by approved alternative funding (e.g., departmental budgets, grants, or PDTR). Please note: non-standard equipment is not supported by ITSS for hardware or warranty issues.

Once approved, the department submits a requisition, and Procurement will issue the purchase order to the vendor. All equipment is shipped to ITSS for tagging and configuration. ITSS retains control over system imaging and network access (wired or Wi-Fi).

All devices remain the property of 17吃瓜. There is no fixed replacement cycle; equipment is assessed by ITSS when issues arise. Devices must be returned to ITSS upon end of employment, department transfer, or change in use.

Personal device purchases are only eligible under PDTR in accordance with the Faculty Association Collective Agreement.

Questions or concerns can be directed to Deryl Gallant, Manager of ITSS Operations

The deadline for Animal Care protocol submissions (new, renewal, or amendment) is Friday, August 1, for the August meeting. 

Please note that as of June 1, 2020 all animal user protocols must be submitted through 17吃瓜 Researcher Portal at

For new protocols select 鈥榓pplications鈥� and for renewal or amendment protocols select 鈥榚vents鈥�.

To view any 17吃瓜 ACC SOPs and Codes of Practice, they can be accessed through my17吃瓜 at . 

Those protocols received after the deadline will be reviewed the following month. The Committee requires at least one month for processing applications.

The Application Review Committee invites campus community members to provide feedback on the candidate who visited for the Tier II Canada Research Chair in Equity in Nutrition, Physical Activity, or Health. Below is a summary of the candidate and a link to the recorded research seminar.  

Dr. Waldman has a PhD in Kinesiology from the University of British Columbia (2020) and is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sport Management at Florida State University. Dr. Waldman's research program is comprised of three lines of socio-cultural inquiry in sport, physical culture, and health: 1) the local and global postcolonial politics and implications of sport and health focused 'new city' developments in the Global South; 2) sport, international development, and gendered/racialized inequalities; and 3) global ethnography as a qualitative research methodology, relations of power in research settings, and the politics of knowledge production. These three lines of inquiry come together to address questions about how colonialism shape sport-led urban and regional land development, the politics of inclusion/exclusion in urban planning, and sustainable community development in the Global South.

Feedback is requested by 4 pm on July 11, 2025, and can be provided to mlsteele@upei.ca.
