Welcome Summer Studentsl

VOLUME 5
NUMBER 7
JULY 11, 1972

Excellent National Film Board productions, usually
ranging from an hour to an hour-and-a-half in length,
will be shown free of charge every Monday evening
at 8:00 p.m. in the University Centre Theatre.

FAMILY LIFE PROGRAM
The Family Life Program is a two-credit course designed to provide the student with a thorough knowledge of human sexuality and family living. Each
year leading authorities in anthropology, sociology,
philosophy, psychology, theology, physiology and
chi Id development are invited toLakehead University
as guest lecturers. Each day starts with a two hour
presentation by the visiting lecturer, and this is
followed by a discussion group period. Each group
consists of 12 students and a trained group leader.
It is during this period that students have the opportunity to consider and discuss the contents of the
morning lecture. The afternoon is occupied with the
evaluation of audio-visual material, and a second
group meeting.
Lakehead University's thirteenth Summer term began
on July 3 and will run through the week of August 15.
A tota I of 1,600 students are enrol led in more than
50 courses on campus, throughout 6 communities in
Northwestern Ontario, and also overseas in Spain
and England.
Special summer features, in addition to the Family
Life Program described in this edition, include music
instruction in conjunction with Humanistic Studies,
language immersion programs in French and English,
final summer training for secondary school teachers,
and a theatre workshop.

Free Films and Music
As a service to students in the Summer term, the
Department of Extension and Summer Session is providing the best in local concert musician-ship and
recent National Film Board productions free of charge.
Summer concerts scheduled for the remainder of the
term wi 11 take place in the Facµlty of Education Auditorium on Wednesday, July 19 and Wednesday, July
26 at 8:00 p.m. Featured from time to time in such
concerts are the musicians-in-residence of Lakehead
University: Douglas Dahlgren, piano; Michael Ed-.
wards, clarinet and oboe, Sidney Mann, viol in and
viola; Joseph Shufro, cello; and Kenneth Dearlove,
brass.

Although the course is designed primarily to train
and prepare persons for the teaching of Family Life
in the school, it is apparent that the course has
considerable appeal to non-teachers. The course
content deals with such contemporary issues as the
future of the family, women's liberation, and sex
and the law, as wel I as a review of current knowledge in such areas as human reproduction, commUnication in the family and contemporary theological
views.
Under the directorship of Kieth Wood of the Department of Psycho logy, a tota I of fourteen guest lecturers wi II present up-to-date research and viewpoints
on family living, throughout the summer.
The first speaker has just completed his skein of
three lectures through the first week of classes in
the program. Dr. Warren Schumacher of the Department of Human Development at the University of
Massachusetts has turned his attention towards the
topics of "Human sexuality: the language of interpersonal relations", "Maleness and femaleness:
sexua I identification and roles", and "Clarification
of personal values: risk and creativity".
Through these topics, Dr. Schumacher has stimulated
thought and discussion of the deep implications of
sexuality in all aspects of human personality and
interpersonal relations. He has also explored the
extent to which such questions should be raised in
the classroom.

REMINDER

Shakespeare Production !

For those who may have missed earlier announcements, "Happy Hours" have returned. Faculty and
staff of Lakehead University are invited to share
I ibations in the Faculty Lounge from 4:00 p.m. on
Friday afternoons throughout the summer.

A Minneapolis-based touring company of actors,
usually specializing in outdoor performances of
Shakespearean plays, will perform indoors on three
occasions at Lakehead University on July 12 and 13.

COU RECOMMENDATION
The following is an excerpt from a letter to the
Chairman of CUA, setting forward the COU recommendations on graduate student fees:
It was concluded that $600 for a twelve-month year is
a reasonable fee for graduate students to pay. This
figure would be among the highest graduate fees in
Canada, but not so far above the other provinces as
to encourage widesp!Bad migration of the best Ontario students. The concept of an annual fee is considered important, because of the great merits in
year-round study and year-round use of the most
expensive university facilities, If the fee were
established on an annual basis, there would be no
need for uniformity among the universities in the
actual application of fees by terms.

Shakespeare-in-the-Streets, as the company is called,
will arrive on the evening of Wednesday, July 12,
and wi 11 perform Tw~lfth Night at 8:00 p.m. that evening. On Thursday, July 13, they will perform Much
Ado About Nothing at 2:00 p.m. and The Two Gentlemen of Verona at 8:00 p.m.
All performances will take place in the Lakehead
University Centre Theatre. Tickets for each performance are $2.00, and are available through the University Bookstore, or may be purchased at the theatre
entrance.

Our specific recommendations to CUA and the government are as follows:
(1)
that all full-time graduate students ( except for
post-residency· students) be charged a fee of
$600 a year collectible once, twice or three
times during the year at the discretion of the
university and that this amount be used by the
government in calculating formula entitlements;
(2)

that transition to the above formula fee be
accomplished according to the following schedule: * (below)

(3)

that an adjusted value of the 8.1.U. for 1973-74
is preferable to an increase in fees beyond $600
or any other compensating mechanisms such as
bursaries;

(4)

that if the 8.1.U. value for 1973-74 is reduced,
appropriate arrangements be made to protect the
income of the universities likely to suffer
• enrolment shortfalls or to have limitt;!d numbers
of graduate students.

�Association Of
Commonwealth Universities
The ACU promotes contact and co-operation between
Commonwealth universities. To that end, the Association, which has a full-time staff of 55 at its London headquarters, works in a number of practical
ways to serve the Commonwealth university community by:
• organizing in different parts of the world conferences of Commonwealth university people
• promoting the movement of staff between Commonwea Ith universities by helping member universities to fi 11 vacant academic posts
• assisting the movement of students from one
country to another by administering a number of
scholarship schemes, including the British end
of the 1,00-award Commonwealth Scholarship
and Fellowship Plan
• providing factual information about universities
on a Commonwealth-wide basis, through publications (especially the Commonwealth Universities Yearbook) and a personal information service.
Founded in 1913 and later incorporated by royal
charter, the Association has 186 member universities
in 26 Commonwealth countries (52 members in Europe, 45 in Asia, 46 in the Americas, 24 in Australasia and the Pacific, and 19 in Africa). 69 of its member institutions are in developing countries. It is
the oldest international inter-university association
in the world and is governed by a Counc i I of executive heads representing member universities in the
different Commonwealth countries.
The Secretary-General is Sir Hugh W. Springer and
the office of the Association is at 36 Gordon Square,
London, England WC1 HOPF.
Much of the work of the Association involves contact with, or providing services for, the executive
heads, administrative officers and academic staff of
member universities, but a significant part of the
day-to-day work of the office takes the form of the
provision of services for university students. These
services centre round the provision of information,
usually about courses, admission requirements or
scholarships, and the administration of scholarship
schemes.
Factual information about Commonwealth universities
is provided for students in the following ways:
• through A.C.U. publications of which the best

known is the annual Commonwealth Universities
Yearbook. The Yearbook is meant to serve all
sections of the Commonwealth university community but the A.C.U. also produced some pub1ications intended largely or entirely for students.
•

'Higher Education in the Uniled Kingdom', a
handbook issued every two years and specially
designed to answer the .kind of questions that
students in other countries ask about study at
the higher education level in the United Kingdom.

•

A new A.C.U. publication, scheduled to appear
I ate in 1972, wi 11 describe awards for postgraduate study tenable at universities throughout
the Commonwealth and open to students from
other Commonwealth countries; it wi 11 be cal led
'Scholarships Guide for Commonwea Ith Postgraduate Students' and will be published in revised editions every two years.

•

through a free Personal lnf,ormation Service for
any student who, w1 shes to telephone, write to,
or (if in London) cafl at the A.C.U. office at 36
Gordon Sq\Jarefor a talk with one of the information officers (who also edit the Association's
publications). To answer some of the most frequently-asked questions in greater detai I than
would be possible by letter or in conversation,
a number of short A.C.U. Student Information
Papers have been prepared and are available on
request and without charge.

The A.C.U. Bulletin of Current Documentation is
published by the Association of Commonwealth Universities, 36 Gordon Square, London, England WC1 H
OPF. Its main purpose is to provide the member universities of the Association, and particularly those
in them who are concerned with the more genera I
aspects of pol icy-making, with factua I information
about some of the more important books, reports,
and other documents that have recently been issued
on matters affecting universities and are of more
than local interest. The emphasis is on publications
issued ,in• Commonwealth countries but some international and foreign documentation is also described.
The 1972 Commonwealth Universities Yearbook is
the forty-ninth edition of this standard guide to
university institutions in the Commonwealth. In its
2,100 pages it provides the essential facts about
240 universities, including for each a complete list
of teaching staff and general information about its
courses, faci I ities, activities and organization.

CAMPUS SITE PROJECTS - SUMMER, 1972

SITE SERVICE PROJECTS
Claude Smith, Chief of Physical Planning and Construction for the University, regrets to inform the
University Community that fairly extensive disruptions of campus parking, as well as of vehicle and
pedestrian traffic, wi 11 prevai I throughout the summer
months. Students, faculty and staff of the University
are cautioned to drive with extreme care on campus
during the summer period because detours will be the
order of the day.
Following is a numbered I ist of the various projects,
some of which are already underway. The numbers are
reproduced on the accompanying map of the campus in
order to give you some idea of the main areas of
activity.

1. The road from the Oliver Road entrance, around the

plex will be revamped during and after construction
of the new olympic-size swimming pool. The parking
lot will be shifted, but its present capacity will be
retained; a new exit road wil I be introduced between
the swimming pool and Oliver road, thus completing

�ACADEMIC BUILDING
The Department of Physical Planning and Construction announces that the new Academic Building
adjacent to the Library wi II be fully furnished and ready for occupancy well in advance of the
opening of classes for the regular session beginning in September, 1972.
A glance at the accompanying floor plan reveals at least six different types and sizes of classroom. Rooms similar in construction to 1021 and 2025 are 40-station lecture rooms with tablet-arm
seating; those similar to 2024 are 60-station lecture rooms with tablet-arm seating, Rooms 1022
and 1044 are carpeted, horse-shoe-shaped, tiered case study rooms.Rooms similar to 1020 are 12station seminar rooms with carpeted floors and table-and-chair seating; those similar to 2023 are
16-station seminar rooms. Room 2047 is an BO-station examination room with desk-and-chair seating to make it a flexible testing area.
The smaller rooms are faculty offices, numbering 82 in all. Also, centrally located in each of the
three administrative areas are two double-occupancy secretarial offices,
Finally, the largest area on the first floor, designated number 1042, is a lecture theatre-auditorium
which boasts 356 auditorium-style upholstered seats with articulating tablet-arms for note-taking,

Swimming Pool Nearing Completion

ATHLETIC COMPLEX
Construction on Phase 11 of the Athletic complex is under a full head of steam, Except for a few
finishing touches, this entire phase should be completed for the beginning of the fall session in
September,
Separate segments of this construction include three new lecture rooms, three squash courts, a
combatives room specifically designed and equipped for the University"s expanding wrestling
program, and an auxi II iary gymnasium for creative dance, gymnastics, etc,
The major project is the olympic-size swimming pool. It will measure 50 metres in length, and
will be six lanes wide; it will be 12 feet deep at one end, and 3 feet 6 inches at the other; it will
have portable bulkheads to divide the pool into separate instruction areas, The pool will include
two 3 metre diving boards and two 1 metre diving boards, And seating capacity will be approximately 500.

CAPITAL PROJECTS

Language Awards (Cont'd)

Editor's Note: Following are further excerpts from
President Tamblyn' s Annual Report to the Board of
Governors:
Over the years, the Uni'versity has attempted to keep
pace with developments in academic programs, enrolment, and research activities, by providing additional physical facilities as required, Although the
Board is familiar with the details of the University's
present Capital Program, I would like to briefly summarize the major components of that program at this
time. Construction is approaching completion of the
40,000 square foot Academic building, with an estimated total cost of $2.5 million, and on Phase 11
of the extension to the Athletic complex, with an
approved budget of $1.8 mil lion. This new Academic
bui Iding should provide sufficient teaching and office
space to serve the University's requirements for the
next few years, while the extension to our Athletic
faci I ities, including the addition of an olympic-s ize
swimming pool, will accommodate the needs of our
own Physical and Health Education and Athletic
programs, and also provide ample opportunity for use
by Confederation College and members of the general
community. The remaining projects being funded by
the Provincial Government include Site services,
Uti I ities extension, Power House equipment, and
some alterations to existing structures, The original
budgets for these projects totalled $3.9 million, of
which $1.5 million remains to complete them,

speaking students, who cannot pursue university studies in French in Ontario, to study in their own language in Quebec. The amount of the bursary will not
exceed the equivalent of two economy round trips
annually from the student's place of residence to the
university chosen.

There are also five minor projects which are being
funded out of the University's own funds. These
include minor alterations of the Faculty of !:ducation
and the Main Buildings, renovations and equipment
purchase for the newly-expanded Forestry and Engineering Programs, Utility Metering and the purchase
of a Residence for the University President. The total
cost for these five projects are estimated to be
$230,000.

Second Language Awards
The student awards Branch ofthe Ministry of Colleges
and Universities has announced the introduction of a
new Fellowship for Second Language Study., and a
travel bursary for French-speaking students. These
awards are funded by the Federal Government and
administered provincially.
The aim of the fellowship is to provide students with
an opportunity for immersion in the milieu of their
second language in any discipline. It is open to Ontario residents who are undergraduate or graduate
students registered in Canadian universities. Approximately 100 fellowships will be awarded, to maximum
amount of $2,000.
The purpose of the travel bursary is to help French-

Deadline date for the fellowship is October 31, 1972,
and for the trave I bursary is December 31 , 1972. Both
awards are available for the 1972-73 academic year.
Application forms and further information may be
obtained from Mr. D. S. Bethune, Director of Student
Awards, Ministry of Colleges and Universities, 8th
floor, Mowat Block, Queen's Park, Toronto (telephone
965-5241 ).

NUMBER,'::&gt;JUNE 23, 1972

Home at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, June 14. Funeral
services took place at Corpus Christi Church at
11 :00 a.m. on Thursday, June 15, after which Professor Ryan was interred in St. Andrews Cemetary.
Lakehead University is establishing a Scholarship
Fund in memory of Professor Ryan. Contributions to
this fund, in the name of Lakehead University, may
be forwarded through the Secretary of the University.

Timothy J. Ryan 1918-1972
On Monday, June 12, 1972, the University community
was saddened to learn of the death of Timothy Joseph Ryan, Dean of Arts at the university since 1968.
Born in Limerick, Ireland, in 1918, Professor Ryan
received his B.A. and B.Com. degrees from the National University of Ireland at Dublin, and his M.A.
in Economics and Education from Harvard. After
several years as Director of In-Service Education for
a major Irish commercial enterprise Professor Ryan
emigrated to Canada, where he joined the teaching
staff of Ryerson Polytechnic Institute in Toronto.
After three years as a representative for the Saskatchewan Departm_e nt of Education, Professor Ryan
lectured in economics at the Universities of London
and Wales. In 1962 he was appointed Head of the
Division of Management Studies at the University of
Manitoba, where he also served as Director of the
Evening Institute Division from 1963 to 1965.
In 1968 Professor Ryan was named Dean of Arts and
Professor of Economics at Lakehead University. In
his four years at Lakehead he was particularly active
in the areas of program development and interdisciplinary studies. He also served as Vice-Chairman of
the Board of Governors of Confederation College of
Applied Arts and Technology, and was an active
supporter of cultural activities in Thunder Bay, including the Lakehead Symphony Orchestra. He was a
Fellow of both the Royal Economic Society and the
Chartered Institute of Secretaries, and was a member
of the Canadian Industrial Management Association,
the Canadian Association for Adult Education, and
the British Institute of Management.
Professor Ryan was pre-deceased by his wife, the
late Jean Richards. He is survived by a brother,
Denis Ryan of Limerick, Ireland, and close friends
Iris and Carl Torfason and Mrs. Benjaminson.
Prayer services were held at Sargent &amp; Son Funeral

At the Annual Meeting of the Board of Governers,
held in the Senate Chamber on June 19, it was decided that the new Academic Building to be completed in the fall be named the Timothy J. Ryan Memorial
Academic Building in recognition of Professor Ryan's
contribution to the University during his years as
Dean of Arts.

ANNUAL REPORT

Editor's Note: Following are excerpts from the President's Annual Report to the Board of Governors, June
19, 1972.

The academic year 1971-72 at Lakehead University
has been a difficult one in many ways, due primarily
toa lower-than-anticipated enrolment, the consequent
reduction in operating revenue, and the resulting
necessity to introduce immediate budgetary limitations and to plan for longer-term reductions of expenditures. The delicate balances essential in an
academic community received a jolt during the first
half of the year just completed, but were, I believe,
able to return to a state of relative equilibrium during the latter half ...
While full-time enrolment remained static this year,
the number of part-time students increased substant ia 11 y, from 2,650 students in 1970-71 to wel I over
3,000 students in the current year. This increase
occurred primarily in our spring and summer terms,
which have continued to prove more popular from
year to year.Although we offered slightlymore credit
courses off-campus this year (25 course sections
compared with 22 last year), total off-campus enrolment showed a small decline. However, we expect to
be able to increase our extension service to the
smaller communities of Northwestern Ontario asl a
result of a recent agreement with the Ministry of
Colleges and Universities, whereby extra funding
will be available for this work.
The enrolment situation notwithstanding, the University this Spring conferred degrees and diplomas on
the largest graduating class in its history. Since
1965 some 3,400 degrees and diplomas have been
awarded. These 3,400 graduates are a --somewhat less
tangible measure of our development and growth as a

���Report on Applications
This report, based on surveys conducted by OUCA,
compares first-year applications to Ontario universities in 1972 with applications received in the pre-

vious year at the same time. No further surveys will
be undertaken as the universities wi 11 be reporting
on a regular basis to the OUCA throughout the remainder of the admission period. The following table

for non-Grade 13 applicants are down by 6.3%. Total
applications in mid-May are down by 5.8% which is
close to the difference reported in mid-March and
mid-April.
There is sti II a wide variation in the differences reported by the universities. Guelph, Laurentian, and

Ottawa show a slight increase in applications, while
Brock and Trent are sti 11 down by over 20% from la st
year.
Shifts in program preferences have continued. Applications for combined Arts and Science have declined
by 16 .6%, for Arts by 13 .4%, and for Engineering by
12.4%. Applications for Science have increased by
12.7% and for other programs by 8.2%.

�Annual Report (Cont'd)
university than the impressive buildings and the
large operating expenditures, but these men and
women are the justification for our existence. In our
concern for balanced budgets we must never lose
sight of our real purposes and goals ...
The. year 1971 -72 saw a great dea I of va I uabl e work
being done in the area of Academic Planning and
Development. Particularly noteworthy is our recently
announced, and very unique Engineering Degree Program ... Commencing in September, 1972, students
who have completed a Diploma Program - either at
our University or at a College of Applied Arts and
Technology- will beable to enter a specialized TwoYear Program leading to a Bachelor of Engineering
Degree. Thus our School of Engineering will now
join with our already very successful School of Forestry in providing the residents of our region with
the opportunity of pursuing Applied Professional
Training without being requiredto leave Northwestern
Ontario.
Other developments this year have included the publication of a major, and controversial, report by the
Senate Academic Planning Committee on the Academic Aims and Objectives of the University and the
Allocation of Academic Resources to Meet Those
Objectives. This report wi II be the subject of considerable debate during the coming year. Also this
year, several of our departments have participated in
province-wide studies of Graduate Programs, which
are being conducted jointly by the universities of
Ontario. Hopefully one of the results of these studies wi II be the expansion of Graduate programs at
Lakehead University to at least the Master's Degree
level in most disciplines ...
The questions of proper organizational structures
and governing mechanisms have been prominent at
Lakehead for the past two years. Internally, our Commission on University Governmental Organization is
just now completing its fi na I report for presentation
to the President ... Its recommendations will be both
far-ranging and challenging, and will attempt to improve both the effectiveness and the efficiency of our
structures. We can expect, however, a lengthy period
of debate and argument before any or all of these
recommendations can be implemented, but I believe
them to be sound suggestions worthy of your closest
consideration.
Externally, the Wright Commission on Post-Secondary
Education in Ontario has produced its final Northwestern Ontario Report, recommending that there be
just one Board of Governors to serve both the University and Confederation College. It is my opinion, and

the opinion of many of the two Institutions, that the
Report's recommendations are not only unworkable
but will actually reduce the quality of educational
services provided to the people of this region ...
In summation, Mr. Chairman, I would direct the
Board's attention to the purposes for which this
University was established, to the major strides it
has taken in the last seven years to fulfill its educational and social obligations, and to the great distances left to travel. I would urge the Board to remain mindful of the rapidly changing environment,
both political and financial, surrounding this Uni ..
versity ...
Before closing, Mr. Chairman, I would like to take
this opportunity to make two personal comments.
Firstly, I am sure that you will all join me in expressing our sadness and sense of loss on the death of
Tim Ryan, our Dean of Arts for the past four years.
Professor Ryan was a warm and cheerful man whose
very considerable contributiom; toward the development of this University were achieved with charm
and sincerity. Those who worked closely with Tim
Ryanwill deeply miss him, and will never forget him.
I believe it is appropriate, Mr. Chairman, for my
final remarks this afternoon to be an expression of
my sincere appreciation to the members of the Board
of Governors, and in particular to yourself and members of the Executive Committee, for the unfailing
direction and support which were extended to me
during the past seven years.

a i lable to them the opportunities of pursuing their
personal development, whether it be for career or other purposes. The University, too, must be more aware
than ever before of the problems of the society in
which it exists. And it must be prepared to contribute
in a constructive way to the resolution of those problems.
This it can do through its mandate to keep under critical review the systems of values which our society
has inherited. Here a degree of detachment is essential, and a degree of tension is inevitable. The University can also address community problems in a
more direct fashion by sponsoring interdisiplianry
research into current and anticipated difficulties.
Above a 11, however, the role of the University remains that of the most appropriate vehicle whereby
members of society can assimilate philosophical
principles, realistic applications, and social and persona I va I ues. As the source of a broad prospect of
impressions and experiences for its students, the
University serves society by producing responsible
and enlightened citizens."
President Tamblyn Addresses Convocation '72

Editor's Note: Following are excerpts from the Convocation remarks of Dr. W. G. Tamblyn,
President of Lakehead University.
"From our first Convocation in 1965 to the present
time, Lakehead University has awarded 2,500 degrees
and diplomas at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels. Today, another 904 degrees and diplomas
wi II be awarded. These 3,400 graduates are a somewhat less tangible measure of our development and
growth as a university than the impressive buildings
and large operating budgets. But these men and women are centra I to our purpose for being here at a 11.
Perhaps, in addition to paying tribute to graduating
students, a secondJry purpose for Convocation is to
remind us all of why our University exists, and what
its contributions to society really are."
"The role of the University has changed dramatically
in the last twenty-five years. It is no longer a sanctuary in the monastic sense, where students leave
society for several years of study. The University
must now, more than ever before, relate to a broad
cross-section of society, and must, in fact, play an
active social role. The University must serve, and
foster interaction between those students wishing to
lay the foundation for their professional or vocational
careers, and those who seek to cultivate their understanding of themselves, of society and of nature. The
University must also expand its service to those segments of society other than the traditiona I group of
students. Men and women of a 11 ages must have av-

"I believe that Convocation is a most appropriate
opportunity to express to our Faculty, our Departmental Chairmen, and particularly our Deans, the appreciation of the entire University for their sincere efforts during this past year. The very fine work which
has been done this year in the area of prograll' development is an indication of their total involvement in
post-secondary education in Northwestern Ontilrio."
"Particularly noteworthy this year is our recently an-

Some of 904 Recipients of Degrees &amp; Diplomas

�nounced, and very unique, Engineering Degree Program. To the present time our School of Engineering
has offered a three-year program leading to an Engineering Technology Diploma, as well as the first two
years of the-four-year Degree Program. Our students
were then required to transfer to other universities to
complete their professional education. Commencing
in September, 1972, students who have completed a
Diploma Program - either at our University or at a
College of Applied Arts and Technology - wi 11 be
able to enter a specialized two-year program leading
to a Bachelor of Engineering Degree. Thus our School
of Engineering wi II now join with our already very
successful School of Forestry in providing the residents of our region with the opportunity of pursuing
applied professional training without being required
to travel many hundreds of miles."
"I would like to take this opportunity to pay a brief
tribute to two of the leading members of this institution. The Honourable Mr. Justice Bora Laskin has
not only served us wel I in his first year as our Chancellor, he has also brought us a further degree of
recognition recently when he was honoured by thred
major Canadian Universities - Alberta, Manitoba, and
Western Ontario - with Honorary Doctor of Laws Degrees. We would like to congratulate you, Mr. Chancellor, for this singular achievement.
The second man who is deserving of our recognition
here today is the Chairman of our Board of Governors, Mr. John Murray Fleming. Mr. Fleming has been a
member of the Board since 1962, served as a ViceChairman for two years, played a major role in our
very successful Development Fund drive in 1967, and
has ably and unselfishly served as our Board Chairman since 1969. The duties of the Chairman have
been particularly heavy during the past two years,
and have included service on the Commission on
University Government, Membership on Search Committees for both a New President this year and a
Vice-President last year, and numerous trips to the
seat of the Provincial Government on the University's
behalf, as well as his normal responsibilities as
Chairman of the Board and its Executive Committee.
It sometimes seemed this year that Mr. Fleming was
attending more meetings on Campus than even I, myself. Mr. Fleming has now announced his resignation
as Chairman of the Board of Governors, but will continue to sit on the Board as a member. On behalf of
the University, I can only say that we have the greatest respect for you, and that we are grateful for your
guidance and unselfish service to our University,"

Chancellor Speaks
At the close of Convocation '72, Judge Bora Laskin,
Chancellor of Lakehead University, paid special

tribute to Dr. Wi 11 iam Gordon Tamblyn and John Murray Fleming. The Chancellor recogniz:ed both men for
their unforgettable contributions to Lakehead University in its critical formative years.
As of June 30, 1972 Dr. Tamblyn relinquishes the
Presidency af the University and Mr. Fleming steps
down as Chairman of the Board of Governors.

Convocation Address
Editor's Note: Following are excerpts from the Convocation Address delivered on May 27, 1972 by the
Honourable George Kerr, QL., Minister of Colleges
and Universities.

"I recognize that nothing is permanent in these complex times, when young people in particular are questioning the relevance of our social institutions and
when many seem unhappy in the midst of affluence.
People talk about being bored, sick, frustrated, polluted or discarded. They are troubled by atomic
stockpiles and by wars fought for no apparent reason
other than that they once began."
"Sometimes young people appear to me to be terribly
old, because they expect so I ittle from I ife and make
so few claims upon it. I suppose that there are the
usual number in our society who expect to be clothed, fed, educated and amused without too much exertion on their part. That kind of passivity is scarcely what I mean when I speak of the need to make
claims upon I ife. I mean the joyous anticipation that
if you plunge into life's dark waters and battle its
strcng currents, you will come up with priceless
treasures."
"Consider the problem of knowledge with which you
have been occupied during your years at Lakehead.
The pride of the modern world is often the knowledge
which we have built up, and mankind has never experienced such a vast access to new information as
in recent years. We have the pi 11, the bomb, computers and all our technology. Yet when we look at the
world, we realize that wisdom and knowledge are
not identical.••
"Wisdom is much deeper than knowledge alone. Wisdom involves spiritual insights, integrity of character, a love of things worthy of being loved, a scale
of va I ues that puts first things first -- a 11 of these
woven by a philosophy of life into a purpose of living."
"We al I have to face up to the fact that what stands
arhwart man's chances for a better life is not the
ponderous, impersonal establishment, which admittedly has plenty of sins to repent for, but man him-

�,,

self, Our trouble is that we have a tendency to slink
away when the challenge of practical application
faces us. My advice to you is -- get the facts and
forget the rhetoric. Get involved, become active practitioners in life, and you'll find that this is indeed a
great time to be alive. As you go out into the world
to follow your individual careers, I hope that your
colleges and your studies have somehow instilled in
you something of a spirit and sense of responsibility
in the rea Im of broader service."
"In my talks with University students across the
province I sense a feeling of apprehension about
where the Government is heading in the field of education . We a 11 know that the fifties and the sixties
were periods of tremendous growth and expansion.
This period saw the establishment of many new universities, including Lakehead, as Ontario met the
cha I lenge of providing faci I ities for thousands of

young people who saw a degree as an automatic
passport to the good I ife. Now we tend to be a bit
more critica I and concerned about the qua I ity of the
post-secondary education that is being provided. I
think that is a good thing. A good thing for not only
the taxpayers of the province but for the Administrators, the Faculty and the students themselves. Let
me assure you that we are not becoming anti-education at Queen's Park. We are not reacting blindly to
the backlash from those who say that University students are pampered and are taking too big a share of
the public purse. We are sti 11 very much on your side.
Al I we are saying is that we think it is important to
make sure that the quality and the relevance of a
University education is maintained. We are in fact
paying more attention to the University community in
the seventies . We are establishing a meaningful dialogue about objectives, not just being the Banker with
no thought for tomorrow."

Northern Outreach
What are Canadian univers1t1es doing about education, research and public services in the North? The
Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada
(AUCC) will be able to answer this question following a six-month study which it has recently launched.
The study has been asked to report on the present
programs of Canadian universities in education, research and public services in the North, on the needs
of northern peoples that are not now being met and
on desirable extensions of these programs in the
future.
In this context the North is defined as including the
Northwest Territories, the Yukon Territory and the
northern regions of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland . The
study is under the direction of W. 0 . Kupsch, Director of the Institute for Northern Studies at the University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, and is being funded by the Ford Foundation and the Department of Indian and Northern Affairs.

�Minister To Speak
The Honourable .George A. Kerr, Minister of
Colleges and Universities will deliver this year's
Conv9cation Address.
Although he is new in the arenas of post-secondary education, Mr. Kerr has enjoyed a lengthy
career gs a lawyer and politician. Born in Montreal in 1924, Mr. Kerr was educated in Montreal
and New Brunswick schools before taking his
Bachelor of Laws at Dalhousie Law School, Halifax in 1953. He was called to the Ontario Bar
in 11955, and received Queen's Council recognition in 1967. In municipal affairs and politics, Mr. Kerr served
on the Burlington Town Council between 1955
and 1963. He was also active in the Chamber of
Commerce and Kinsmen Club of Burlington, Ontario. From 1960 to 1963, he served as treasurer
of the Halton County Progressive Conservative
Association.
The Minister was first elected to the Ontario Legislature for Halton West in the general election of
1963. After serving and chairing numerous committees dealing with a wide range of topics (i.e.
government commissions, municipal affairs, consumer credit, education, health, labour, conservation and water resources), Mr. Kerr was appointed
Minister of the Department of Energy and Resources Management for the Province of Ontario
in June, 1969.
In February, 1972, Mr. Kerr was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Colleges and Universities.
The Lakehead University community welcomes
him to Convocation '72.

Graduate -Fees
On April l O the Council of Ontario Universities
issued a statement in which it stressed that the
recent increase in the annual gradua.te student
fee from $485 to $877.50 is unfairtostudents and
will have a serious effect on the quality of the
universities of this province. The Council therefore w_el_comes the announcement on May 5 by
the Minister of Colleges and Universities that
the universities will be permitted more freedom
in the use of provincially derived funds to assist
graduate students.
A student will be permitted to earn up to $2,400
as a Teaching Assistant, provided of course, that
such employment is available. The previous limit
was $1,800. Also, universities will be permitted
to use operating funds for the provision of bursaries to a maximum of $300 per studentto those
graduate students who register for three consecutive terms, the first of which begins in September, 1972.
While the Council welcomes the freedom to grant
bursaries as a temporary palliative it does not
regard it as providing a long-term solution. The
Council believes that there are preferable alternatives. The Council is hopeful that the Minister
will be willing to consider proposals for alternatives to the imposition of the third term fee. COU
is studying the problem as a matter of highest
priority.

Senate Notes
At the Senate meeting of Friday, March 19 the
Registrar, Mr. John McDonnell, presented ~ list
of potential graduands. Senate approved 696 for
bachelors degrees in Art, Scier;ice, Education,
Commerce and Nursing; as well as 182 for certificates and diplomas. Four Master of Arts degrees
and five Master of Science degrees will also be
conferred at Convocation May 27, 1972.
Special registration note: In order to ensure
that all courses selected will count as degree
credits, all electives must be chosen in consultation with, and have the approval of, the
major Department.

Remarkable People

mee~ings

The following are excerpts from a convocation
address of the President of Pennsylvania State
University, Dr. Eric A. Walker:
Pointing to the assembledguestsofthegraduates,
Dr. Walker said: "I would like you to look and see
some of the most remarkable people ever to walk
the earth!
"These, your parents and grandparents, are the
people who, within just five decades - 1919 to
1969 - have, by their work, increased your life
expectancy by approximately 50 per cent; who,
while cutting the working day by a third, have
more than doubled per capita output.
"These are the people who have given you a
healthier world than they found, and because of
this you no longer have to fear the epidemics of
flu, typhus, diphtheria, smallpox, scarlet fever,
measles or mumps that they knew in their youth.
The once dreaded polio is no longer a medical
factor, while TB is almost unheard of.
"Let me remind you thatthese remarkable people
lived through history's greatest depression. Many
of them know what it is to be poor, what it is to
be hungry and cold.
•
"And because of this, they determined that
it would not happen to you, that you would have a
better life. You would have food to eat, milk to
drink, vitamins to nourish you, a warm home,
better schools and greater opportunities to succeed than they had.
"Because they gave you the best you are the
tallest, h_ealthiest, brightest and probably the bestlooking generation to inhabit the land.

Pieces Assembled
The Lakehead University mace, rather fragmented
in the last issue, has pulled itself together and is
waiting patiently in the Science Workshop for
Convocation ceremonies to begin.
Our annual apology goes out to Ron Bennett,
Senior Technician of the Geology Department,
for utterly ignoring his superb lapidary contribution to the mace.

"And, because they are materialistic, you will
work fewer hours, learn more, have more leisure
time, travel to more distant places and have more
of a chance to follow your life's ambition.
"These are also the people who fought Man's
grisliest war. They are the people who defeated
the tyranny of Hitler, and who, when it was all
over, had the compassion to spend billions of
dollars to help their former enemies to rebuild
their homelands.
"These generations have made more progress
by the sweat of their brows than in any previous
era - and don't you forgetit!And, if your generation can make as much progress in as many areas
as these two generations have, you should be
able to solve a good many of the world's remaining ills.
"But it won't be easy. And you won't do it by tearing down or belittling. You may, and can, do it by
hard work, humility, hope, and faith in mankind.
Try it!"

PROFESSOR OF ANTHROPOLOGY, LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY
RE:

MID-CANADA REGION

Over the past summer I have travelled across our country from
Northern Newfoundland to the Yukon.

During these travels I talked

with many people in an attempt to ascertain their attitude and views
about Canada's North.
Knowing your continued interest in the north, I would like to
take this opportunity to pass on to you my conclusions.

This is not a

formal paper just a series of thoughts and ideas stemming from my wide
ranging travels in the past year.
For thousands of years man in the north had adapted himself
to nature, and not nature to himself.

This changed with the arrival,

in the seventeenth century, of people out of Europe.

The land was

scoured for fur bearing animals that had heretofor been used by family
groups of Indians for clothing and meat.
The exchange of furs for European goods, resulted in the
complete distruction of the adaptive dependence on the natural
environment of the indigenous peoples.

Their way of life changed to

one of dependence on the whims of alien peoples.

The shifting of

foreign markets, and the decline in the availability of furs, in large
measure the result of over-harvesting, brought the vast fur trade organizatio
to an end.

Thus, by the middle of the ninteenth century the northern

peoples, now without their basic food resources, and dependant on an
alien technology, were left to fend for themselves.

�- 2 -

Since the arrival of the Euro-Canadian, development of the
boreal forest shield region has been characterized by transient,
extractive, commercial ventures.

These ventures, based on the

requirements of communities unrelated to the north, proceed with little
consideration for the people living in the north.

As a result, many

people who have made their permanent home in the north, have developed
over the years a sense of alienation from the south of Canada.
From the period of exploration, resting on the then lucrative
fur trade, to the quest for recovery of precious metal resources, to
the present denudation of the forests by the pulp and paper industry,
all major economic activities have been based on extraction of
resources, are transient in nature, and are controlled by outsiders,
for outsiders.
We all know of ghost towns resulting from the termination of
mining operations in the north.

One only needs to fly over the north

to see how Euro-Canadians have treated their own people, and the
resources of the region.
region continues.

The dependency on forces outside the

Under present utilization of our forests, I believe

it is likely, albeit for sound economic reasons, that the pulp and
paper industries may well move their operations south to areas of fast
growing southern pine, once existing facilities have fulfilled their
economic usefulness.

And once again, we will witness the indifference

of the rest of Canada to the well being of their compatriots, who
choose to occupy the central heartland and hold it as Canadian territory.

�- 3 This repetitive alienation of people living in the north is
aggravated by factors other than economic.

The growing multiplicity

of regulations, usually designed for southern areas with high population
density, is felt as an unwarranted, repressive and authoritarian
intrusion into individual freedom of expression and action.

The power

of government offices to search "wherever their suspicions may chance
to fall" is totally subversive of democracy.

The burden of this action

is expressed in the obvious indifference and lack of initiative
manifested in many northern communities relative to other communities
in Canada, for the people feel they have only colonial status.

There

is an obvious need for some form of regional government, answerable to
the people in the north.

Certainly, a new approach is required, for the

land is not the private preserve of those from outside who may, from
time to time, wish to harvest its resources.
People living in the south of our country perpetuate a myth
that Canada no longer has a frontier situation.
erroneous.

This is completely

There are hundreds of square miles of territory surrounding

the great inland waters of Hudson's and James Bay with less than one
person per square mile.

This kind of isolation, this indifference in

experience and background, results in a people with entirely different
outlooks on life.

If Canada is to grow and prosper, the resources of

the north must be developed, but I suggest it should be with the
people of the north, not separate from them.
I should record that there appears to be no problem of national
identity in the north.

From coast to coast, everyone I talked with,

whether they were old settlers, indigenous peoples, or recent immigrants,

�- 4 was first and foremost a Canadian, even where their very survival
depended on foreign capital investment.

There are, of course, regional

variations, but in all regions our people view themselves clearly apart
from the Americans.

This, I believe, stands in marked contrast to many

of our southern city populations.
Another aspect of the problem of identification for the people
of the north is communication.

There are regions which by virtue of

radio are informed as to what is happening, in their neighbouring
communities, in their Provincial or Territorial Capitol, in Ottawa,
and in the world.

These people do not feel cut off and isolated.

But

there are other areas, such as northern Ontario, where such is not
the case.

People in the Lakehead have virtually no idea of what is going on

in Sault Ste. Marie, their nearest neighbouring city, for there is no radio
link.

Commercial broadcasting, in the area, looks inward rather than

outward.

This does not aid in identification of Northern people with

the rest of Canada, but reinforces the felt isolation.

The same may

be said for the prevailing newspaper media in the Lakehead.

Furthermore,

agencies such as the C.B.C. have completely abrogated their responsibility
in Northern Ontario, for they have not even bothered to set up a station
in the area.
The situation is perpetuated by the existing power structure
at the local level, with its 'old guard' family control, which, while
it no doubt gives stability to the community, often performs like the
Family Compact of old Upper Canada.

The ultimate social actions which

result from this kind of control are well-known.

Another factor in this

�- 5 process of alienation of the people of the north, is the prevailing
absentee ownership of the extractive based industries; Management is
transient, and transient management, regardless of how conscientious
it might be, in terms of community involvement, is still - transient.
With reference to the work force significant elements of this
force are mobile, others are seasonal workers, while others are subject
to dislocation in the face of the application of new technologies.
Thus many do not make a lasting contribution to the long term
development of northern communities.

For the same reasons many young

people leave the region, thus the north is
its young people.

losing its best resource -

Those who do stay, frequently become a public

charge as they age, for there are no alternative avenues of employment
open to them, in a land with virtually no light secondary industry.
Lack of opportunity has resulted in a poverty problem in many areas of
the north, yet if it is to be developed competant people are needed and
a program to induce young Canadians to come north and open up the
frontier is required.
The many indigenous people of the region have reaped the
grievous suffering of a subjected people, under the dichotomy which
prevails between the needs of people, and the goals of our economic
system.

Their expanding population largely the result of the

introduction of limited health services, based on pre-natal and post-natal
care combined with the introduction of game conservation measures,
which limited food and cash resources, has resulted in a forced
dependency

on an alien overseer.

This, combined with the introduction

�-

6 -

of a formal education program, has caused a severe and drastic
dislocation in the way of life of these peoples.
direction of conformity to an alien culture.

A change in the

The only justification

for such action must rest in the 'right of conquest', a stand no
longer palatable in todays world.
The dominant society must recognize that it is engaged in an
unco-ordinated program of forced acculturation.

Only then might they

be in a position to face up to the effects of their actions.

In the

meantime, for those many young people, who, as a direct result of actions
taken to date, are no longer able to fit into their own society, yet
do not have a place in the communal life of the dominant society, an
answer must be found.

One which will at least permit those who want

to participate, an opportunity to do so.
I would suggest that the people of Canada have within their
power the means for providing a role for many of these young people.
The numerous government departments that maintain sizable operations
in the areas inhabited by Indian people could employ many of them.
Whatever the cost in dislocation because of labour turn-over or expense
incurred in on-the-job training, consideration should be given to
such an approach.

It is believed that if such a scheme were implemented,

there would be, over the years, a gradual shifting to employment in
the private sector of the economy.
Returning to consideration of the development of the north
as a region, it must be recognized that any development program has
far reaching effects.

What factors, for example, have been considered

in respect to the on-going survey of water resources of the Albany River?

�- 7 One cannot help but wonder if any consideration has been given to the
resulting dislocation of the indigenous people, not to mention the
utter distruction of plants and animals, and the concomrnitant disruption
of the ecological balance.

A minimum requirement would seen to be a

complete summary of the resources of the area, before deciding on a
program of inundation and diversion of the waters.

Once again, it

appears, the land will be exploited by outsiders, for the benefit of
outsiders.
In terms of research, any program set up to investigate the
north should be centred in northern institutions, not in the south
as often is the case today.

For example, research with respect to an

afforestation and reclamation of our soggy wastelands around Hundson's
Bay could be undertaken by the universities now situated in the north.
One only needs to look at the vast range of chemicals which the USSR
is recovering from their peat bogs, to recognize the unrealized
potential of the area.

Conservation and pollution research must also

be the subject of continuing study if we are to leave the land livable
for future generations.
Let us look at some possibilities for development of the north.
There are areas now forested which are suitable for cattle grazing.
Such a land utilization would not only provide a local food supply,
supplanting the present situation which sees almost all basic food
supplies imported, it would also provide a working situation for many
people in a context with which they could identify.

Further, a programme

of co-operative ventures, to produce and market products would be

�-

highly desirable.

8 -

Such enterprises would belong to the people, and

•

they would identify with the operations.

This is very important, since

a sense of identity cannot now be achieved with ownership and control
resting, as it does, some place far removed from the north.
Looking north to the Bay much of the land appears uninhabitable.
But it could be put to use for grazing caribou, under the management
of the native people, who live in large tracts of that area.

This is

the natural habitat of the caribou, an animal which can digest many
plants not suitable to man, and convert them to edible meat.

The caribou

is a herd animal, and could be domesticated without major difficulty.
The development of plant products in the north, by the people
living there, is worthy of consideration.

This would include the

cultivation and harvesting of such products as blueberries, cranberries,
mu shrooms, wild rice, and mosses.

With some encouragement and

assistance, such enterprises might be undertaken by many of the Indians
living in the region.
Much of the land surface of the north is comprised of
beautifully coloured shield rock.

Noting the stre.rg:h, durability

and range of colours of this rock, one considers the possibility of
crushing it for utilization as surface coating for curtain walling.
Certainly there is a large and growing market for such building materials
in the magolithic buildings of the southern metropoli.
The d.eve,l opment of the off-shore mineral finds, now under
exploration in Hudson's Bay, could be undertaken by going overland,
through Ontario, rather than by water, as is now the case.

The wealth

apparently lies there, would certainly justify the building of an

�- 9 overland route by the public sector which would open up corridors to
r

the Bay.

The result would be of inestimable benefit to the people of

the north, and to the country as a whole.
In todays world, industry has a social responsibility.

It

is no longer acceptable to establish an extractive industry with a
short life span.

Once an industry goes into an area, regardless of

the type, it attracts many other secondary service enterprises.
means people, families

communities.

This

Corporations in todays world

have a responsibility for the communities they create.
I have tried to state some of the problems that prevail in
the central sh:eld region of Canada, and to c£fer some suggestions as
to future direction of growth and development in the region.

The aspect

cE. 'people' has been emphasized, because it is fundamental.
Under our present system of blended private and public sector
financing of development, the people of Canada have a direct responsibility
for ensuring the development of their mid northern territories but
they must make a choice between haphazard and unplanned development
and planned programmed development soundly based on both the human and
natural resources of the country.

                    <text>REPORT ON NORTHERN AREA STUDIES
Lakehead University

Prepared by
The President's Committee
on
Northern Area Studies

for

The Grants Committee
Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development

November 1968

�ORGANIZATION
A multi-discipline committee composed of faculty members concerned
with the north was established by the President in 1965 to foster northern
research and development at Lakehead University.

The committee, established

as a permanent body, with an appointed Director to provide continuity was
considered to best serve the prevailing needs.

Its aims were to channel the

interests of faculty members in the direction of northern research, to stimulate the interest of students and others in northern research, to promote courses
in northern studies and to assist in procurring funds for northern research.
The Director was to assess the northern research resources at the University,
liaise with government departments and universities working in Canada's north
and exchange information with such bodies.
In 1968 the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests base at Black
Sturgeon Lake in the boreal forest was acquired.
used as a subarctic research station.

The facilities are to be

A research and teaching program at

the station is now being developed by the Northern Area Studies Committee.
This fall under the auspices of the Arctic Institute of North
America, Dr. M.C. Grooswald, of the Institute of Geography of the Academy of
Science, U.S.S.R., visited Lakehead University.

His discussions on northern

research and developments in the U.S.S.R. added a further stimulus to the
Committees activities.

In the past sunnner, the Director travelled from

L'anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland to Whitehorse in the Yukon, attending the
Second National Northern Research Conference at the latter community as well
as the Alaskan Science Conference.
!he committee is at present constituted as follows:

EXPENDITURES
The support and encouragement provided by the Department of Indian
Affairs and Northern Development has facilitated the procurement of funds from
other sources.

Individual grants totaling more than $50,000 have been received

by faculty members undertaking northern research projects.

These are accountable

by the respective researcher and are not therefore detailed in this report.

In

addition, funds amounting to $30,000 per year for a period of three years have
been provided by the Department ·of University Affairs to operate the research
station.
The initial timing

of

the receipt ef funds from the Grants Connnittee

�- 3 of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development precluded uitlization of the grant in the sunnner of the year in which it was applied for, and
this situation has prevailed in subsequent years.

It is considered a satis-

factory arrangement for it permits advance planning and early spring fielding
of research parties.
To date all funds received from the Department of Indian Affairs and
Northern Development have been allocated to the Albany River ecological project.
A balance of funds remains this year, as field work in the past summer was
curtailed.

As originally envisaged, a four man party consisting of two zoology

students, one botany student and one archaeology student was to be put in the
field.

Four students, of a type deemed suitable for a field party working

in an inhospitable, isolated situation for an extended period of time were
not located and the field party was reduced to two.

Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development and the
Ontario Department of University Affairs with logistic support
Provided by the Department of Lands and Forests.
2.

Archaeological excavation of a stratified Woodland Period prehistoric
village, Wabinosh Bay, Lake Nipigon, Ontario:

used to support the phytogeographic and zoogeographic reconnaissance of the
arctic water shed in Ontario.

The project is being undertaken to provide basic

quantitative data from this central region of Canada's boreal forest.

- 7 that the archaeological aspect of the project have recovered Middle Woodland
ceramics.
Students who were available for shorter periods were used in biological
and prehistoric field reconnaissance at the recently acquired Black Sturgeon Lake
research station.

Here some of the basic problems of setting-up the telemetry

system designed to monitor the movement of animals which is to be embodied in
the Albany River survey are being worked out.

Funds for this aspect of the

work were provided by the National Research Council.
Other projects, particularly those related to socio-economic studies
and problems of living in the north, have employed undergraduate students and
expectations are that a number of students will continue their interest in the
north at the post graduate level.

These projects are also contributing

directly to the planning for development of the north.

It is this multi-

discipline approach that the connnittee believes to be essential for northern
studies, and a first step toward interdisciplinary research.
FUTURE PROSPECTS
In an attempt to achieve an integrated understanding of indigenous
peoples in the north, a number of research projects have been developed and
are expected to be commenc~d in the coming year: one in association with the
Youth and Recreation Branch of the Ontario Department of Education is to
study attitudes towards education on northern reserves; one is a study of Indians
in town under support from ~he Human Rights Connnission of Ontario; one would
attempt to determine the common factors in those persons of Indian ancestry
who become members of the middle class in Canada and another would attempt to
standardize for the Indian population non-verbal tests for use in reserves

- 8 schools.

These projects are being developed by members of the Depart~ents of

Psychology, Sociology and Anthropology.
The undergraduate student body in recognition of the University's
position in the subarctic boreal forest and the human phenomena of living in
the north have established their own northern studies committee and out of
this has come a request for an insitute devoted to the study and education of
Indians in the north.

While this is only in the embryonic stage, it does hold

promise.
The Department of History and Geography under Treasury Department,
Regional Development Branch funding anticipates expansion of their research
with respect to service centers and communications in the north and the Department of Geology in association with Inland Waterways expects to commence a
detailed study of the Lake Superior shore line east of the Lakehead.
The Committee is also working with the Mid-Canada Development Corridor
Foundatiqn which is planning a series of seminars embracing business, academic
and government personnel concerned with the mid-north.

The first of these is

to be held at Lakehead University next summer.
With the increasing number of ~esearch projects being undertaken at
the University and the growing awareness in Canada, of the norths potential,
the Committee looks forward to a growing realization of its aim.
