PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the Can~dian
University Campus of 1976, and more spec_if_
ically to this particular Grove of
-Academe, L~~e~ead Uni¥ersity. Welcome!,.
You people are of a special breed, the university student of the 70s.
Gone are the days where university was a temple of reflective thought, the
scene of intellectual tn,1bulence, or a centre for social change. Today, the
campus of 76 is merely a larger, duller, more impersonal high school where
students scramble for marks.
•
Why has this happened you say? What has caused this change?
Mainly, bepause several fundamental differences 4:txist between the student
of the 60s and the student of the 70s. Firstly, the student of the 70s has had
to struggle harder and· save more to attend university. This is mainly caused
by a shortage of summer jobs, a substancial increase in enrollment, a percentage increase in applications for financial assi~ance that is double the in-_
crease in enrollment, and a ~eneral tightening of provincial funding for .
education. Hence, the student of the 70s is geared twbards educating himself
towards a career. Secondly due to the high unemployment rate, there exist
students that look a lot older than you expect to find at Lakehead
University. These ... mature students ·are here to improve their job marketability. They have found it either impossible to ftQQ.J job or one where they
are ~ble to have a standard of living they are ,satisified with. These are the
students found on the campus of 1976.
I nclosing, I wish you every success in your search for jobs, security,
money. t hope that this handbook will make the task that much easier, and
will encourage and inform you of places to go and things to do while in
pursuit of your academic goals. Valerie Ross has stated; "The Flower Childern of the 60s wanted to make love, the Flour Childern of the 70s- dough."
Good luck to you, the Flour Childern of Lakehead Unive~ity.

Student Lounge
The Student Lounge was opened in
January, 1974 and .is representative of
almost a third of all student funds for the
1973-74 academic year. When the cafeteria
is too noisy and the library is too quiet, it
is a comfortable and convenient place for
you to meet your friends and rest your
•weary bones. There are card tables, coffee
table5, chairs, couches and wall to wall
carpeting - lots of room to stretch out. We
don't suggest wrestling, drinking or eating
in the lounge since it costs· a lot of your
money and will" cast a lot more if people
decfde to spill, rip, bend, fold or otherwise
deface the furniture.
The lounge has a colour television donated by Summer Session Society 1973 and a
cable service.
During major licenced events held during,
those times when classes are not in session,
the lounge is locked so that no one from
outside the university can tear the place
apart. (We know that students don't do
things like that.) However, when beer gardens and other such going-ons are happening
the student lounge will still be open for use
If you are in the lounge and you're unhappy about someone making a ruckus,
you can tell them to be quiet, and the TV
can be turned down, so you can tell'em
to turn that thing down too.

Vending Machines
The games room, as well as having a vast
array of pinball machines for fanatics or
soon-to -be-fanatics, is equipped with a
variety of vending machines dispensing
chocolate bars, sandwiches, pastrie~, hot
and cold drinks, chips, etc. You can get
cigarettes, chocolate bars, gum and change
for a quarter from machlnes in the cafeteria
Change for a dollar can be obtained upon
pleading with the circulation desk at the
library if the bank and the Matchbox are
closed.
Travel Services-AOSC
The Association of Student Counci Is
(AOSC) is a student travel co-op that can
provide you with an International Students
Card. This card gives you discounts on
special chartered flights to just about any ..
where, rail passes and accomodation. Give
LUSU two bucks, a recent ~assport-size
photo of yourself, and proof that you have
been a full-time student sometime during
the past year, and we'll set you up.
AOSC also provides us with schedules of
flights and rates, and a little booklet called
Student Travel Guide to Europe. We have
copies of this gem, and it might just be
worth your while to drop in and pick up a
copy.
Come to LUSU for information regarding student group flights, charters, youth
fares, and reduced travel costs in general.

Squash Courts in the Main Building
One of the most recent features added
to the list of services offered to the University Community by LUSU is directed at the
Squash 'Buff'. Up to recent times a rather
unsatisfactory if not fustrating procedure·
was used to book the two squash courts in
the Main Building. After numerous complaints the then Vice-President of Fin~nce
and present President of LUSU, Nick
Joblin initiated a system whereby the Main
Building Squash Courts are reserved
through the LUSU Office.
The new system is as follows;
1) squash courts may now be booked
only in person or by phoning the LUSU
Office, UC-1007, Ext. 259, between the
hours of 9 a.m. 'and 5 p.m. Monday to Friday,
2) squash courts may be booked one
day in advance Tuesday to Saturday, and
on the Friday before for Sunday and Monday,
3) only full-time students, and faculty, staff, alumni, and part-time students
Holding current athletic memberships will
be al lowed to book courts,
4) an individual is not al.lowed to
book more than one hour per day and
bookings must be made on the hour (i.e.
not 4.30 p.m. to 5.30_p.m.)
5) at 5 p.m. Monday to Thursday,
the schedule for the next day will be placed
I in the window of the LUSU office door for
view,
6) at 5 p.m. Friday the schedules for
Saturday, Sunday, and Monday will be on
view on the inside of the glass of the LUSU
office door.

ACTIVITY FEES
. Every full-tio,e student pays $62.50
m activity fees. The Student Union recieves $25.00, the Student Committee on
Athletics receives $27.50 and the Health
Unit Budget recieves $10.00
Both Athletics and the Health Unit are
ad':linistered by the University. The Athlet~cs spending is recommended by the Athle~1c Advisory Board which is representative of all groups using the facilities.

WHAT HAPPENS to YOUR FEES
LUSU is responsible for providing and
financing the majority of student services
on campus. These services include dances
'and beer bashes, typing facilities, off-campus housing, budgetary assistance to LUSU
clubs, Winter Carnival, the Argus# the film
series, concerts, and the Recreational Resource Centre, to mention a few. Through
these functions and activities, which are
directly funded by your activity fee LUSU

THE ARGUS
They say that if you want to get involved and find out 11bout things at L.U., you
shou Id work for the Argus.
They' re right.
The Argus is the weekly (more or less)
.student newspaper on campus. ·The opinion
expressed are those of. someone on the staff
•unless otherwise stated; not necessarily •
those of LUSU Council, Executive nor of
the University.
•
The Argus publishes 4,000 copies weekly
but that should not scare anybody who
wants to work on the •newspaper. Most
people who get involved on the paper come
in with little or no experience initially.
Anybody can work for the Argus. There
are no try-outs or literary tests, and probably enough variety to please all. No one is
rejected because of political beliefs. The
'blue pencil' is saved for cases of libel.
Unlike many groups which criticize it,
the Argus does not have an authoritarian
decision-making structure.
The best time to drop around the Argus
Offices (located in the basement of the
University Centre, past the t&gt;ack Qf the
Gan,es Room in UC-0019) is on production
day - usually Sunday evenings.
The editors for this fall and winter are
Bob Wakulich and Sue Stewart.
Everybody reads -the •Argus, if only to
swear at its contests and to see what movies
and social events are going on. [?rop in.

Lost and Found is operated by the
Security Office and is located in the basement of the Agora in room UC-0003G,

undergraduate experience.
You can do this by attending a few
career planning seminars that are offered
throughout the year petiodically. They

Job Information Centre
This year a new service will be provided
by the Student Placement Office. The Job

Dean of Students as a Counsellor
The Dean of Students provides a personal and confidential counselling service for
all students on campus. Students have •
many and varied problems. Some arise out
of the situation in which the student finds
himself. While these tend to be temporary
they produce anxiety and lower intellectual efficiency. Other problems are connected with a choice of courses or a vocation.
Still others revolve around the questions,
Whom shall I see? What ~o I do? Many
student difficulties arise out the the breakdown of traditional v~lues and the search
for new ones, the relationships to family,
to friends, to other students, to faculty an&lt;;t
to the Administration. Counselling· helps
students to resolve their problems and to •
develop the full range of their talents.
If you have a problem of any kind, find
yourself bewildered, or just suffer from
general disorientation the Dean of Students·
as a Couhsellor, will always be available to
you. His office is the first in the series that

THE LIBRARY
This section of the Student Handbook is
intended as a guide to the materials and
services of the University Library, and
contains as much useful information as
possible.
The professional staff also is trained to
assist users, and readers shou Id not hesitate
to seek the help of the Reference and
Readers' Services staff or any other
member of the staff in case of difficulty. ,
The Library is approximately eighteen
years old, and has evolved from its original
. foundation as the Library of the Lakehead
Technical Institute .. The Institute became
the ·Lakehead College of Arts, Science and
Technology in 1956, and finally Lakehead
University in 1965. Since 1965 the Lakehead University library has been a participating institution in Ontario's provincially
supported universities system.
The present holdings of the Library
comprise approximately 200,000 volumes
supplemented by the equivalent of between 20,000 and 30,000 volumes on
various mk:roforms. The Library also
rec_ieves nearly 3,200 titles regularly.
Th1! former Teachers' College Library
• still occupies separate premises on the
campus as the Education Library. Although
the Education Library serves primarily the
needs of the Faculty of Educa·tion; it is,
however, open to all members of the
University.
The Lakehead University Library collection also includes antiquarian and archival
material with special emphasis on items of
local significance. In these areas co-operation is established with other instituations
in Thunder Bay.
The Library policies are determined by
the Senate Libtary Committee composed
of members of the University community
ex-offic~o, including the Chief Librarian
and Education Librarian, representatives of
each Faculty and the University Schools,
and undergraduate and graduate representatives of the student body. The Education
Library Committee is a sub-committee of
the Senate Library , Committee and is
comprised of the Dean and three members
of the Education Faculty, the Chief Librarian, the Education Librarian and three
student representatives.

14

In- addition to the above policy-making
committees there is also an independent
advisory committee called the Library
Users Committee which consists of three
student representatives of the Senate
Library Committee and representatives
(usually two) of the Library staff. This
committe~ provides a means for discussions
on the problems of the users of the Library
particularly th~ undergraduate and graduate students, and suggestions, etc. may be
submitted to it at any time through the
Circulation Desk.
Although the Library caters primarily
to the members of Lakehead University
it also welcomes all members of the community to make use of its collection. No
particular restrictions are placed on the use
of the material within the Library, and
books may be borrowed . under certain
/ .conditions.
BorroV'ing of Books
Registered users of the Library may
borrow for reading outside the building.
Books-scheduled for borrowing have a card
pocket in the back of the volume. Method
of issue will be explained by-the Circulation Desk staff or the assistant at the
Information Desk. Material scheduled to be
kept permanently in the Library has a
• stamp or label to this effect in place of the
card pocket and will only be issued with
SJ:?ecial permission from Senior Library
Staff.
_There is no restriction at present on the
number of books which can be borrowed
at one time. Normally Uncjergraduates may
keep books from the open stacks for two
weeks.
The Academic and Senior Administrative
Staff and membefs of the Board of Governors may borrow books from the open
stacks for longer periods. Books will be recalled at the end of the academic year or at
the end of Summer Session. However, they
should be returned earlier if they are no
longer in use, and must be returned on request if required by another reader.
G'raduate students have the same
borrowing privileges as Faculty at present.
Reserve books are books which normally
may be borrowed for two weeks, but which
are temporarily put on ··reserve when in

�f

/

great demand. They are shelved at the Circula,_tion Desk.' An index to the books by
author and by, course is at the Desk and
any book listed may be obtained from the
Staff by request.. Because there is a heavy
use of these books by \,Jndergraduates for
a limited period, the Academic Staff are
requested not to borr9w them.
Those books with pink cards at the back,
may be kept tliree days. Those with yellow
cards may be kept for two hours and not to
be taken out of the Library. There is
• a limit of two reserve books per borrower,
one for each of two courses.
The attention of readers is called to the
regulations regarding fines for overdue
• ~ooks and replacement of lost books. The
names of those owing fines and of other
defaulters are , posted on the Library
notice board, and notified to the Accounts
Department. Fines, etc. must then be paid
• to the Accounts.

PARKING
Owning a car means another thing to
think about on campus. On-campus parking
is regulated by permit. If you don't have a
permit or if you park in any of the restricted areas or where there is not a hydro
outlet - be prepared to be fined. If fines are
left unoaid. wheel blocks will inevitably
find their way to the wheels of your
vehicl«f. There will be a booth set up at
Orientation with infor~ation and parking
permits. After orientation, parking permits
are purcha~d at the security office
( UC-0003G).
Parking permits cost $18.00 per year
for full-time students with decreases
throughout the year. Part-time students
pay $6.00. The sticker you get will entitle
you to any parking space in a campus
parking lot, with the exception of Lot 5
(Centennial Building Parking Lot) which
requires a Lot 5 sticker (only a limited
number available). Daily parking cost 25
cents and is available at the information
'office at the entrance to university grounds
for.visitors only.

YOU , YOUR BOOKS, AND THE L.U.
BOOKSTORE
~

,

As you all kflOw, in order to accomplish
anything in university, you must read. Due
to the size of LU's library and enrollment,
this means tha~ most of yoJJ will have to
buy some books. At the aookstore most
of the books you n~d will be available on
the day classes start. Due to customs, shipping, last min~te changes in reading lists,
or miscalculation of class size, some texts
may be late. If you tell your prof, and
weep a bit while you're at it, he/she/it
will usually be lenient with regards to the
material in these noQ-available tex~s. Got
that?
_
If· you beat . .the rush (get your books
early) you may be able to pick up used
books at a reduced price.
These are textbooks used in previous
years on campt,1$ that the Boqkstore bought
back during their annual Buy-back period
in April and May, as well as some that yvere
purchases from the leading U.S. 1used-book
wholesalers. .
Store are from 9 AM to 5 PM, and
sometimes until 7 PM. Check the sign on
the door ( halfway down the stairs to the
Games Room). The best time to shop is
early in the year, early in the morning.
Make Sure You KNow The Course Number
and Professor's Name. The· only way you'll
find out the titles you need is to look in
the booklis1; (available only in the bookstore) and they're listed by course number
and prof.
Every year, some students will buy texts
only to find that they are not using them in
the course. Don't bitch at the Bookstore
staff. This is the Prof's fault , becuase the
store ordered books at his/her request and
now doesn't intend to use them. These
books should be recommended but not
required. These books can be returned ( if
they're not used texts) if there is a course
change or if you drop the course, but only
if the book is not defaced in any way and .
only during the time specified. Check the
door for the return period.
,•

To be accepted for . return, textbooks
must be in new condition and totally
unmarked. It is therefore aqvisable NOT to
write your name in your books until you
are sure you are staying in the course they
were bought for.
If there's a special b~ok you want (that
means it's not a textbook), go to the
Special Order Clerk's Office at the back of
the store and tell her what you want. Y 01,1
must lay down some cash as a deposit, or
they won't order the book. Deposits on
paperbacks is $1. Hardcovers require a~
$2 deposit, unless it's ·something special
,($25 up) ....they need _$5. Remember, if
you're ordering a book published in the US
markup· is 15-20 / and delivery time is 4-5
weeks.
.
Besides books, the Bookstore sells
stationary, pens, art equipment, drafting
equipment, souvenirs, trinkets (LU rings,
mugs, glasses. cufflinks, lighters), candles,
greeting cards, classical and rock albums,
and, of ·course, the Muskeg Review.
If you want something that you can't
lay your hands on, just ask. Someone has
to know where it is, we hope.

extend beyond an occasional sentence.'

ATHLETICS
To the west of our campus is our C.J.
Saunders Fieldhouse, commonly called the
phys. ed. centre. It is interesting to note
that it offers more than just a place to
write those painful! exams.
It is in fact a most important part of
Lakehead, and of anybody's university life,
and it's open to everyone - undergrads,
grads, faculty and staff. All one has to do is
use it.
Undergrads present their student card
for free use of all equipment in the fieldhouse. Undergraduates have already paid
for these privileges, included in their
tuition, so it might as well be used. Grads,.
faculty and staff pay their fees for a
membership card. As well as the use of
facilities you may purchase a towel tag
which entitles you to a clean towel upon
presentation of this tag. Equipment, such
as badminton racquets, basketballs will be
issued upon presentation of your LU. ID
ca~
,
The field house includes a multi purpose
gymnasium which can easily accommodate
2,000 spectators, an auxiliary gymnasium/
dance studio, combatives room, weight
training area, sauna baths, change rooms
and locker rooms for 1,000 persons, classrooms, laboratories, a 50 metre swimming
pool, three squash courts, tennis courts, a
fieldhockey and baseball field. These
facilities are constantly being used by the

local community and enjoyed by all in a
wide variety of organized and recreational
activities.
An outdoor skating rink is provided for
the students behind the residence buildings. Curling and golf is just a five minute
walk to the Thunder Bay County Club
where students may golf and -curl at reduced rates. We are fortunate that skiing is
only a fifteen minute drive to anyone of
our half a dozen ski hills.
All full time University students are
encouraged to try out for various varsity
athletic teams. More infbrmation may be
obtained by visiting the athletic department or by phoning 213 or 544.
Towel service will be funished for $4.00

LAKEHEAD RESOURCE.CENTRE
What is It?
This .is an entirely new service for the students ·at Lakehead. Now stude11ts may
rent sports and recreational equipment out
to enjoy our outdoors wilderness. No longer will the student loose out on activities
because he or she does not have the equipment or the money to rent or buy such·
equipment. The rental fees are extremely •
low and the money collected goes towards
up keep and buying new equipment.

Equipmen:t cannot be rented out for a
period longer than 3 days. We place· this
restriction . upon all equipment to give
·everyone a chance to use the equipment.
If. the equipment is not returned or . if
the equipment is broken then the student
pays for any damage.
Individual equipment may .. be rented for
50 cents a day with the exception of cross
country skis which are $1.50 a. day. All
equipment must be returned by 10 a.m. the
next day or you are charged for another
days rent.

Where is It?
All equipment may be rented at the
LUSU Recreational Resource Centre Office
Our office is located in the University
Centre Building across from the Student
Union Office. The office is open from
9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The Equipment
.
All. our equipment., is top line merchandise. We ask you to take care of it and
not ruin it for the other students at Lakehead. If you do break or lose the equipment you witL have to pay for it so please
be careful.
We have the following equipment for
rental
Cross country skis, boots and poles
Snowshoes
Backpacks
Camping stoves, pots and pans
Winter'. and summer sleeping bags
Ensolite.Pads
Tents
Canoes, paddles and life jackets
Squash racquets
Tennis Racquets
How Much
Their is a $5.00 deposit on all equipment rented out. This deposit is refunded
when the equipment is returned. If.. you
rent more than one piece of equipment you
stilL pay only one deposit fee. To rent out
equipment your student card or 'your
registration form is also required, but is
given back when you return the equipment.

I

-

Whose is It?
The concept of a recreational resource
centre stemmed from the interest and
subsequent prodding from the Outdoor
Club. Your student. council, LUSU, with
the co-operation . of LU Administration,
Phsicals Services and Intramural:. Department teamed up to make this concept a
reality. LUSU, through the use of your.
student fees, purchased all equipment
required. The Adminstration and Physical
Services . provided a centre for. the-equipment to be stored and loaned from. The
Intramural Department, under director
Ron McKechney. and his assistant Kerry
Brown selected equipment to be p1:1rchased,
developed
the ·mechanisms for loaning
equipment and are in charge of loaning
equipment. As a consequence the students
of Lakehead University own recreational
equipment every LU student may loan.

A BRIEF TO THE COMMISSION
ON UNIVERSITY GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION
of Lakehead University

by

W.

D.

R. ELDON,

Ph.D.

Structure in Perspective
"Well-intentioned men can make any system of government work,
but in the absence of good men even a good system will not work".
This saying suggests that there are factors of greater importance
than structure in making an organization work effectively and fulfill
its aims.

It also suggests that there may be a choice of several

systems of government for any given institution.

The system

favoured (over other Equally workable systems) may reflect the prevailing priorities and values of members of the community.

My

suggestions regarding a governmental structure for lakehead
University necessarily reflect my own priorities and values,

and it

is hoped that any collision with other ideas as to structure will
generate useful debate and a happy outcome.
Ideally,

the structure of government of the University should

provide for democratic express ion of ideas and decisions on academic

- 2 policy.

It should facilitate the effective carrying out of policy and

allocation of resources to different parts of the University operation.
The structure should permit anyone to identify clearly who has
responsibility for what,
too,

and who has authority over what.

Ideally

the responsibility of an individual or committee should not be

greater than its authority.

The student and the professor should

have a strong voice in the affairs of the University,

but the burden

of committee work should be sufficiently restrained to permit the
student to graduate and the professor to teach.
The present structure government provides some genuine
opportunities for democracy and some illusions of democracy,

some

clarity in the division of functions but some troublesome areas of
confusion.

The Senate, for example, is not sufficiently representative

of the University community.

The Board is not sufficiently repre-

sentative of the citizens and potential clientele in the area the
University serves.
unresolved,

There are genuine differences of viewpoint,

as to where authority does rest or should rest and as

to how authority should be exercised.

The channels of communication

between student and professor are not always as open as they should
be,

despite the presence of students on committees in many departments.

Nor is there a satisfactory rapport between some faculty and something
known as "The Administration".
Some of the difficulties lie deeper than the present system of
organization,

but result from unresolved differences in philosophy

about what a university is and how it should be run.

This state is

over North American universities in the past decade.

and to

ensure that it will serve the modern objectives of the University.
The Environment

I

The key to the environment in which Lakehead University must
operate in the next ten years is to be found in the trends of the
past decade.

During this time the government sector of our society

and economy has increased its power at the expense of the private
sector in a variety of ways.

Govern.mental control has increased in

such areas as ecology and consumer affairs,

I

I
I
I

and private business

is understandably worried by a mass of complex federal legislation
in taxation,

labour relations and competition policy,

all of which

seems designed to restrict its freedom and decrease its opportunities.
Large multi-national companies appear best fitted to weather the
storm,

so that increasingly a university graduate must make his

career in big business or big government.
In the universities themselves in the past decade we have witnessed a growth in governmental control over university financing and
the introduction of graduate programs.

These trends are likely to

carry through into the coming decade.

Privately financed institutions

such as Waterloo Lutheran University and Trinity College ( Toronto)
will probably succumb and conform to the provincial government's

Internally,

with the likelihood of continuing financial

Student Requirements
Ontario universities are experiencing the early stages of
changes in the structure of demand for university academic programs.
Arts programs are losing ground.

job market.

see their expectations wither.

If the pinch is provinoo-wide,

the institution of tenure will not protect redundant faculty.

The

challenge for the University is to adjust staff numbers to the
requirements of changing academic programs without an annual
upheaval.

The University should explore the possibilities of

assisting tenured and probationary faculty who wish to remain at
the University in readjusting their qualifications to make this
possible.

Satisfactory career opportunities may not lie in their

chosen field,

and some means should be found of assisting the

transition to a revised career in the case of a faculty member
left high and dry by an ebb-tide.
The faculty association-trade union approach will not be the
best response to the problem of faculty members made nervous
by change.

Carried too far,

the trade-union spirit can spoil a

university.

Should a professor have to worry about spending more

time with his students than union rules allow?

solutions that encourage adaptation and improve job-security, there

is no need to extend the s cop~ of operation of the faculty association
or to give it specific recognition in the broad policy-making or
government of the institution.
The Department
Many of the important issues bearing upon the structure of
university government arise within the context of the academic department or faculty.

For example,

the chairman is responsible for

�- 8 academic leadership and for the day to day functioning of the department.
How far do his responsibility and authority extend?
a vote in his depa~tment?

I
I

Can he over ride

To what extent should he share the

responsibility for making departmental policy with committees of
faculty and students?
to recall?

Should he be elected?

Should he be subject

Should he represent his faculty as their obedient spokes-

man, or should he take the views of his colleagues as "advice"?
Should he carry out the policies of the University in his department?
What are the limits of departmental autonomy?

I

The problem is to strike a balance between the legitimate
desire of every member of the department to have some voice
in matters which affect him and the need to recognize that some
academic staff members have greater experience and better judgment
than others when it comes to developing and implementing departmental policy.

Some possible dangers are that an over-developed

committee system may enable inexperienced juniors to override
more experienced senior academics,

or that timid mediocrity in

a department may prevent the upgrading of staff.

In addition,

too

many departmental problems end up on the president's desk because
either (a) no one accepts the responsibility for solving the~,

or (b)

no one has authority to make a final decision.
There is accordingly much merit in granting a chairman the
authority he needs to carry out his responsibilities for developing and
operating the department.

The dean should have a distinct influence

in guiding the choice of a department chairman,

The Dean
The present role of a dean at Lakehead University is ambivalent.

Different and incompatible views exist as to what his

role should be.

Is he mainly a "faculty man",

faculty and a chairman of his chairmen?

a spokesman for his

Or is his role primarily

that of a senior administrator who applies the policy of the

I
I

University in his faculty?
The uncertainty as to what the dean's role is or should be,
or differences in the way that different deans interpret their role,
have caused a double dose of mistrust.

The more senior admi-

nistrators may come to feel that they cannot rely on a dean to
implement policy, while faculty members believe that the dean is
a "tool of the administration" rather than the champion they
expect him to be.
The modern role of a dean is an in-between one,
a time when all authority is questioned.

to balance inter-departmental considerations within his

and to apply university policies within his faculty.

The opportunity for CUGO to enunciate the appropriate role
of deans and departmental chairmen is of crucial importance to
the University.

No other matter is of such vital importance for

faculty morale and for the quality of the academic program.
Faculties
The organization of departments into faculties is not static if
the relative importance of programs and student enrolments is
changing.

There is no significant monetary saving to be achieved

by consolidating existing departments or faculties into larger units.
For example, the dean of a super-faculty is likely to require an
associate dean and more secretaries.

on,

As time goes

particularly if some of the

professional schools should grow into much larger units.
In the near future the University might well assess whether a
dean should be appointed to oversee graduate studies.

The advantage

lies in his ability to deal on even terms with other graduate deans
in the Province.

Also one person in this role can give focus to

graduate activity in the University,

with a budget to help him

promote the most promising directions of postgraduate endeavour.

�I

- 11 The same need may well exist with respect to research
activity.

Especially if the Wright recommendations for separate

funding of research and teaching are adopted,

it might be advantageous

to have a director of this branch of university activity supervising
internal grants for research purposes.

Probably it would be

advisable to consider the appointment of a single Dean of Graduate
Studies and Research to fill both roles.
The President
The demands upon the president are numerous and heavy,

I

and the structure of government of the University should facilitate
the institution gaining the utmost value from his aptitudes and talents.
His desk should not be cluttered with trivia.

His time should not

be consumed with routine supervisory tasks that he can delegate to
others.

He should have mobility in the sense of being able to turn

his attention to whatever matter is of greatest importance at the

I
I

time, whether it be persuading the government to adopt a new
academic program,

raising funds from external sources,

the image of the University in the area it serves,

improving

or developing a

strong alumni organization.
The president by reason of the variety of matters that may
properly come to his attention has a better overall view of the
University than anyone else.

He should understand budgeting and

accounting and sense the effects of alternative allocations of
resources to faculties or functions within the University.
He should represent the University to the community, and deliver

�I
I
I
I
I
I
I

- 12 innumerable speeches and meet as many citizens as he can.
In addition he must interpret the University's needs to the government
and join with other university presidents in developing common
strategies for dealing with governments.

Within the University he

should interpret the University to itself.

He should crystallize

opinion,

The president

has prime responsibility for the operation, financing,

planning and

Although the power and prestige

of a university president has greatly diminished in the past decade,
his role is still the most crucial one for the university.

I
I

The structure of government,

where the president is involved,

should therefore permit him to perform his many-sided role and to
provide leadership to the university community over a broad f rent.

If he is to do so effectively,

he must simultaneously be sheltered

from routine problems that others should solve and yet be accessible

I
I
I

to currents of opinion in the student body, faculty and community.
One of the hazards of the presidency is isolation, and so the structure
of government must facilitate communication between the president
and the large number of people who make up the body of the
university.
Effective functioning of the presidency depends to an important
extent upon deans and department chairmen working effectively.

If

they abdicate their responsibilities, power over matters which

should be worked out within the department or faculty will pass to
the president's office.

When decisions are made in the wrong place,

A clear definition of the role,

responsibilities and authority
and a system that draws

highly qualified people to those positions is therefore of vital importance if the president is to play his proper role in the university.
There is no single organization chart that can be drawn on
the basis of these comments,

but a few examples will suffice.

Just as the president in the academic area should be kept free of
matters that should be delegated to a dean of department chairman,
so in the administrative services area he should be freed from the
mechanics of running the power plant, the cafeteria,

On the other hand,

the structure of government should enable

the president to involve himself directly in the work of policy-making
committees such as committees of the senate and board of governors.
We should retain at Lakehead the existing formula which allows
either the President or Vice-President to sit as an ex-officio member
of important committees of Senate.

The president's ability to mingle with the students
their opinions will ordinarily depend upon himself.

But he will more easily keep his door open for students if he can
delegate most routine tasks to others.
To keep open his channels of communication with students and
faculty,

the president may wish to establish ad hoc advisory committees

for short periods of time.

Committees to advise the president on

academic and student matters should ordinarily be established for
a particular short term purpose.

Most academic questions can be

satisfactorily handled through the standing committees of Senate,
but a president would be unduly limited in seeking advice if he
could deal only with the formally established standing committees.
Although these general observations can be made regarding
the structure of university government as it relates to "a
president", different people occupying the presidency can be expected
to function in different ways. and to adopt different practices when it
comes to delegating routine tasks,

meeting with committees,

and

seeking student opinion.

perspective of the members of Senate.

number of academic staff sitting on a senate that was largely appointed
from outside the academic community.

The rather recent develo-

ment of an academic senate has brought purely academic viewpoints
to bear upon problems and questions in the academic area.

The

merits of the present system are largely the benefits of specialization
and control by academicS over academic matters.
A question has arisen as to whether the Board and Senate
might be grouped into one governing body,

a system recently adopted

at the University of Toronto but rejected by the University of Waterloo.
Representatives of the community would sit with administrators, faculty
members and students in a single governing body that would handle
the financial and community matters now dealt with by the Board,
as well as the academic matte rs now within the purview of the
Senate.

External opinion would thus be brought to bear upon academic

questions such as addition of new programs and the academic timetable,

while academic opinion could be focussed directly on budgets,

endowments,

and pension plans.

Board and Senate would not exist,

Jurisdictional disputes between
and all major decisions of the

University would be scrutinized by both practically-oriented and

At the same time,

if the powers

of both Board and Senate are truncated in the future by the more
detailed intervention of the Province in internal university affairs,
the matter of o~ tier or two may be of little moment.
Assuming, however,

that significant decisions remain to be

made by the University internally,

the crucial consideration may

be that community representatives now on the Board of Governors
could not afford the additional time needed to become informed
and involved in purely academic matters.

Nor could a sufficient

number of faculty members or students afford the time needed to sit
through what would amount to the combined deliberations of the
Board and Senate, plus those of the existing committees of each
body.
Furthermore, the present two-tier system is capable of
modification short of actually combining Board and Senate into
one body.

The University community sees rather little of the Board

and may be inclined to dismiss it too lightly.

The credibility

of the Senate might improve if it were more fully representative
of the University community.
The Board of Governors
The Board members,

with full-time occupations elsewhere,

can harly be expected to spend much more time than they do on
the University's business. Consistent with this time limitation, however, it would be desirable to increase the number of formal and
informal links between the Board and the University community.
There are many ways of accomplishing this,

but one of the formal

devices possible is to establish periodically

a committee of Board

members to "visit" some branch of the University.
might be purely a Board committee,
Senate group.

The committee

or it might be a joint Board-

The idea is an adaptation from a custom at Harvard

University, whereby a committee of the Board of Overseers is
established to "visit" a department or school of that University.
By talking with the faculty and students in some depth, the Board
committee gains an insight into the problems and needs of some branch

�- 19 of the University.
Another possibility is to establish joint Board-Senate committees
to examine some of the areas where the work of the two bodies
adjoins or overlaps.

Perhaps a joint committee on Board-Senate

relations could make some useful suggestions about the sharing of
views,

I
I
I

information and proposals and about the lines of communication

between the two bodies.
The Board of Governors is presently of a manageable size for
doing its business,

but even so much of its work is handled by its

executive committee which meets more frequently than the full
Board.

An enlargement in the size of the

Board, together with a

policy of paying expenses of members from more remote points,
might make this body more representative of the North Western
Ontario area which the University serves.

I

I

The enlargement of

the Board from about 30 to around 40 members would make it
possible to establish more Board committees to work with members
of the University community.

Provided the faculty have some

representation on the Board,

it is likely neither necessary nor

desirable to increase the number of faculty members sitting on the
Board.

The chief value of the Board is to bring the experience of

the community into the affairs of the Universi~y.
The Senate
The composition of the Senate, however,

should be revised to

make it more effectively represent the University community.
Particularly important,

at present the student members are effectively

�- 20 muffled by the faculty.

A substantial increase in their numbers,

say from two to six representatives,

would make it possible for

their views to come to the surface.
It would also be desirable to ensure that the representation
of elected faculty members should more closely reflect the proportion of staff members and students in each of the four faculties.

I

-I

If each faculty is effectively represented,

there is probably no

need for the chairman of every department or school of the
University to sit on the Senate at once.

On the other hand,

the

Comptroller and a few of the heads of service departments might
well be added to the membership of the Senate.

Substantially

enlarging the total size of the Senate would likely make it unwieldly,
though an increase in membership from about 40 to 50 might
improve the quality of debate rather than the reverse.
The procedures of the Senate would benefit from some revision.

The executive committee of the Senate might well play a

more active role in sifting items placed on the agenda.

The

debate over minutes from committees occupies a disproportionate
amount of time in the Senate,

and the procedure of reviewing

all committee minutes should be abandoned.

Rather,

chairmen of

committees should take the initiative in advancing particular matters
for Senate approval,

or should report matters of interest to the

full Senate when they feel such reports are needed.
Further, the Senate should not be allowed to become a forum
for questioning the President on the performance of the administrators

Summary of Suggestions
My analysis of the needs of the Lakehead University in the
next few years suggests the desirability of definition of roles,
of thinking chead and of evolution rather than radical re-shaping of
the structure of university government.

The specific recommendations

that emerge from this analysis should be interpreted as suggestions

I
I

I
I
I

that help to stir the pot,

not as my final conclusions.

The main

suggestions are these:
1.

The University should examine the feasibility of
providing satisfactory career opportunities for
probationary and tenured faculty where changing
student requirements for courses would otherwise
make them "redundant".
The opportunity would
not necessarily lie in the staff member's chosen
field.

2. The University should enunciate, possibly initially
through the Commission on University Governmental
Organization, what the responsibilities and authority
of deans and academic department chairmen should
be.
These officials should have sufficient
authority to exercise academic leadership and to
implement University policies in their respective
faculties or departments.
At the same time,
staff and students should play a significant role
in developing these academic policies.
,3 . The appointment of a Dean of Graduate Studies
and Research should be studied.

Ill

4.

The President or Vice-President should continue
to sit as ex officio members of most Senate committees.

5.

The appointment of a Vice-President of Finance and
Administration should be considered.

6. A committee of heads of service departments should
be encouraged to develop,

wherever appropriate,

�- 25 -

consistent policies across these departments.
7.

The number of formal and informal links between
the Board of Governors and the University community should be increased.
Periodically, a Board
or joint Board-Senate committee should be formed
to "visit" a department, school or faculty of the
University.

8. A joint committee on Board-Senate relations
should be established.

9. The Board of Governors should be enlarged to
provide broader representation from the area
served by the University and to permit more
Board committees to work with members of the
University community.
10. The composition of the Senate should be revised and
the total membership somewhat enlarged to make
it represent more effectively the students,
academic staff, faculties and administrative service
departments of the University.
11.

The procedures of the Senate should be revised to
provide for the more effective discussion of
questions refer red by Senate committees.

12. The question of whether the Board of Governors and
Senate should be joined in a single governing body
should be left in abeyance pending further experience
with a unicameral system at the University of Toronto
and until government action is taken on the final
recommendations of the Wright Commission on PostSecondary Education.

In an analysis of governing structures, not enough can be
said about people who make the structure work.

In a modern

university the number of people involved in the government of a
