Which Julie Green is affiliated with the University of British Columbia or other Canadian institutions?
This fact-check may be outdated. Consider refreshing it to get the most current information.
Executive summary
The only "Julie Green" identified in the supplied reporting as having a stated connection to the University of British Columbia is listed as an alumna — a Bachelor of Commerce — on a business profile for a Julie Green who works as a Business System Analyst at FortisBC (ZoomInfo) [1]. The other sources reference UBC institutions or similarly named people (for example Green College and researchers named Julie Robillard), but do not provide evidence of a UBC faculty or staff appointment for a person named Julie Green in the provided material [2] [3] [4].
1. The alumna named Julie Green: an education link, not an employment link
A business-directory profile for a Julie Green records a Bachelor of Commerce from the University of British Columbia, and lists current employment in the energy/utilities sector (FortisBC) and prior work at ICBC, which establishes an educational affiliation with UBC but not a current institutional role at the university [1].
2. No UBC faculty or researcher named "Julie Green" appears in the supplied institutional sources
UBC-facing sources in the package — including the university’s own pages, Green College pages, and UBC-related research directories — describe Green College as an institutional unit and list many affiliated scholars, but none of those documents in the provided set identify a person named Julie Green as a UBC faculty member, fellow, or affiliated researcher [2] [3] [5] [6].
3. Potential for name confusion: Green College and similarly named academics
Several of the supplied items concern Green College, a residential and scholarly centre at UBC founded by Cecil and Ida Green; this institutional name is distinct from any person named Julie Green but could create confusion when searching for people with the last name Green [2] [5]. The reporting also contains profiles for other academics named Julie (for example Julie M. Robillard), who are clearly affiliated with UBC; these are different individuals and help illustrate how similar first names can be conflated without careful attention to surnames [4] [7].
4. What the sources do show: other Julies at UBC and institutional affiliations
The materials include a confirmed UBC appointment for Julie M. Robillard (Associate Professor of Neurology and affiliated researcher at BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute and related centres), which demonstrates how the supplied dataset documents UBC affiliations for people named Julie—but again, Robillard is not "Green" [4] [7]. The University and Research.com pages offer broad affiliate and ranking information about UBC but do not list a Julie Green among UBC’s faculty or named researchers in these extracts [8] [9] [10].
5. Limits of the reporting and recommended next steps for verification
The available reporting establishes one clear connection: a Julie Green who holds a Bachelor of Commerce from UBC per a ZoomInfo business profile [1]. The materials do not contain a UBC directory entry, staff listing, publication record, or Green College membership list naming a Julie Green as a current UBC employee, fellow, or academic affiliate; therefore no claim is made about the absence of such a person beyond the limits of these sources [2] [3] [5]. Confirming whether any other Julie Green holds or held an official role at UBC would require checking UBC’s searchable staff/faculty directories, departmental pages, Green College society/fellow lists, or academic publication databases not included here [3] [11] [12].
