Founded in 1973, the Confederation of University Faculty Associations of British Columbia (CUFA-BC) grew out of a Co-ordinating Committee established late in 1971 by its four constituent members - UBC, Simon Fraser University, University of Victoria and Notre Dame University of Nelson. The organization has sought to promote the quality of education and the interests of member faculties at British Columbia's universities. CUFA provides a forum for the exchange and coordination of information, communicates with governments and other university agencies, and formulates policy to recommend to individual faculty associations. Membership is open to all accredited faculty associations within the province and the organization is governed by a Council composed of three representatives of each member association.
