Also at the meeting held over the weekend, Madeleine Dubé was named the 10th Chancellor in U de M’s history. She will hold the position for the next five years.

Denis Prud’homme’s mandate in the role as president and vice-chancellor was also renewed for five years, effective July 1.

It was ratified by APAPUM members on April 8 and covers a period from May 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026.
