COU recommended to the universities and to the Committee on University Affairs that this statement in its entirety be used as a basis for action on that report. The report, Ring of Iron, prepared by Dr. Philip Lapp and col leagues on engineering education in Ontario, was completed in December 1970. Since that time it has been subjected to careful scrutiny by COU, by the universities, the Committee of Ontario Deans of Engineering (CODE), the Ontario Council on Graduate Studies (OCGS), and the Association of Professional Engineers of the Province of Ontario (APEO). The latter thrBe bodies have provided COU with analyses of the Lapp Report and have indicated their position in respect of its recommendations. COU has studied these reports and now makes its own recommendations. A number of the Lapp recommendations have been explicitly or implicitly accepted without amendment by the provincial bodies which have commented on the report. Most relevant to this University is an amended recommendation which reads: "Beginning in 1972 or as soon thereafter as possible, Lakehead University should establish a two-year, full-time engineering degree program specially designed to accommodate diploma technology graduates. The disciplines offered should be related to the needs of the district. In addition, it should continue to offer existing diploma courses in technology. As soon as the new two-year degree program has been established, the present engineering program should be terminated by admitting no new freshman." COU recommended further that five year targets for the total system enrolment be determined and reviewed annually by CODE and COU. Freshman intake would be accepted as the control factor for enrolment in individual schools and, unless agreement should be reached among all engineering schools, maximums set down by the report should not be exceeded. Al so, a means of sea I ing down production of Ph.D.' s in engineering from over 600 per year to 450 per year as of 1974-75 was recommended by COU. VOLUME 4 NUMBER 7 OCTOBER 21, 1971 University Committee The University Committee held its first meeting of the year on Friday, October 8. T.he Committee, composed of the President, the Dean of Students, four faculty members, two administrative officers and eight representatives of the student government, is a forum for discussion concerning any non-academic problem which affects the entire University community. This year, the Faculty representatives, who are nominated by their Deans, are: Mr. A. Cloutier (Arts); Dr. R. Freitag (Science); Mr. S. Dromisky (Education); and Mr. J. Roberts (University Schools). At the meeting of October 8, the Committee agreed to establish a subcommittee of three members to serve as an Appeals Committee for any viol at ions of the Parking Regulations. Named to the subcommittee for this year were Dr. Freitag, Mr. A. Anzew, and Mr. B. Mason. (The subcommittee has already met to discuss procedure, and will be reviewing the appeals received to date at a meeting on October 21.) The University Committee reaffirmed its earlier agreement that all signs, posters, etc., require the approval of the Physical Services Department prior to being posted on University property. Signs, etc., to be posted on the A.M.S. bulletin board require the approval of Mrs. Beach, the A.M.S. Business Manager. All unauthorized signs will be removed. Other items discussed at the meeting on October 8 included the effect of Provincial Fire Regulations on University functions, and the relationships among the various student organizations, and between those organizations and the University.

R. L Streight, president elect of the Chemical Institute of Canada, will deliver his presidential address. Dr. Straight has been very active with DuPont of Canada in university liaison work, as adviser to management in the fields of academic science and engineering, assisting in determining areas of research for consultation potential and developing closer relationships between industry and the university community. He has worked also in pol lution studies and in process equipment design. His topic on Monday evening will be "The environment; a challenge to chemistry and the responsibility of society". The address is free and open to all. TV Violence A Lakehead University sociologist recently presented a paper questioning the conventional belief that mass-media violence causes those who watch it to be more violent. In a controversial paper, entitled "The Real Effect of Media Violence," Dr. David Martin suggested that television violence is more I ikely to make the viewer more apathetic than more violent. The paper, written jointly by Dr. Martin and American sociologist Louis Gray, suggested that television rewards not violence but sitting and watching. The television viewer cannot be violent, nor even very act ive and continue to receive entertainment from the media. The viewer's personal experience of sitting and watching has more effect on his behaviour than does any tendency to imitate what he watches; he becommes inllllred 11D vuonmce but not viol emt. The arg111Dent muy be applied 11D fitims and other mnedlia as well as to televisi0111. Persms who are already violent may learn new violent ""skills•• by television watching. though whether their violence is increased more by viewing than by alternative activities on the streets is an open question. The quiet person is IDllikely to be rewarded for real1ife violmce. whatever he may see on television. He learns to be a spectator. and he is well aware that the consequences of violmce for him are not what they are for a professional football or hocke-f player. Thus, if there is a typical consequence of media violmce, it is almost certainly not some mildmannered person suddenly turning sadistic or murderous; rather, it is the .. criminal apathy.. of mil& mannered people watching some violent deviant harming others, and doing nothing. It almost goes without saying that this is not considered a socially desirable consequence - but it should be equally clear that it is quite different from the consequence commonly attributed 10 violent T.V. Dr. Martin, who is Associate Professor of Sociology at Lakehead, presented the paper in September 10 the American Sociological Association meeting, held in Denver, Colorado.

Fleming, announced Friday, October 29, 1971, that the Board hod received and accepted, with regret, the resignation of the University's President and ViceChancellor Dr. William G. Tamblyn. I Mr. Fleming explained that the reasons for Dr. Tomblyn's decision included his bellief that a periodic change in the leode~ Dr. w. G. Tamblyn ship of any institution was a sound practice, and his feeling that, after seven years of major development, he could no longer provide the energy that the position demanded. Mr. Fleming added that Dr. Tamblyn had informed the Executive Committee of the Board of his plans several months ago, at which time the Executive Committee had attempted unsuccessfully to persuade the President to reconsider. Mr. Fleming said that he was sure that he represented the opinion of the entire Boord when he drew attention to Dr. Tomblyn's exceptional qualities of leadership and to the way in which the President hos devoted himselftothedevelopment of Lokeheod University. With the guidance of its first President, the institution hos grown from a small College of Arts, Science and Technology with on enrolment of less than 500 students, to a flourishing University with an enrolment of 3,000 full-time students and another 3,000 students pursuing their studies on a part-time basis. Enrolment growth hos been matched by the development of new academic programs, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, by the attraction of well - qualified teaching staff, which has grown from less than 50 to well over 200, and by the addition of major capital facilities valued atmore than $25 million. Dr. Tamblyn's role has been the major one in building a University to serve the needs of the people of Northwestern Ontario. Dr. Tamblyn's resignation will become effective in June, 1972, allowing time for the University to seek the most qualified replacement. VOLUME 4 NUMBER 8 NOVEMBER 4, 1971 Parking Regulations The following amendments to the University Parking Regulations were approved by the Board of Governors at its meeting on Friday, October 29, 1971: 1) The Department of Physical Services ore instructed to designate by number the parking area(s) and/or lot(s) corresponding to the types of permit as specified in Section 5.1 of the Traffic and Parking Regulations. 2. Multiple vehicle parking permits may be issued where necessary. 3. In Pa;king Lots # l ,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8, a proper parking stall is defined as one in which on electrical outlet pole is immediately to the left or right - hand corner of the vehicle. In Parking lots #9 and 10, a proper parking stall is defined as one which is located so as not lo impede an orderly traffic flow. (To be added to Section 3.4 of the Regulations, immediately after the first sentence of that Section.) The third amendment was recommended to the Board of Governors by the Parking Appeals Committee. The Boord also accepted a second recommendation from the Appeals Committee slating that: "proper notice of changes to the Parking Regulations, as may from time-to-time be necessary, will be deemed to have been given to the University community by the following method: (a) publication inot least one issue of ARGUS; (b) publication in at least one issue of LU. WEEK; and (c) being clearly posted on the University bulletin boards for at least one week. All first year students who graduated from high school with an average of 80% or better this year ore eligible for Lokehead University Scholarships. These awards are now available in the Accounts Office, below the Agoro, (Fees Wicket UC0002). Further information can be obtained through the Office of the Deon of Students. Promotions Dr. W. J. Tamblyn, President of the University, has announced the promotion of two faculty members to the rank of Assistant Professor. They are Dr. Lorry Anderson of the Department of Psychology and Dr. B. Nkendi rim of the Department of Sociology. �.. - ·t . •••-,JI!•~ I . .,~tt• ~ 1 ), .fl . .:1 1 • ~..~ t. . -~ I,, ' ~ •• University Business EDITOR'S NOTE: The following summary of discussions at the last meetings of the Board of Governors and Senate is presented to clarify some of the misunderstanding concerning the University's current financial position. Lokeheod University has experienced a shortfall in expected enrolment this year of between three and four hundred full-time students, although the enrolment appears to be on o level with last year's registration. Under the formula financing system which is operative in Ontario, universities ore funded on the basis of the number of students who ore actually registered on December 1st. The consequence of the enrolment shortfall is on estimated reduction in revenue of $718,000 for the current fiscal year. A special Brief to the Deportment of Colleges and Universities requested thot the Government increase the amount of Lokeheod University's emergent grant (the extra-formula support given to the small developing universities in the province) to help off-set this estimated reduction in revenue. Representatives of the University met with the Deputy Minister and his advisors on October 18 in •order to present this Brief and its supporting arguments. Its main tenet is that the concept ofo fixed emergent grant is tenable only in o period of continuous enrolment growth. It is totally unreasonable when enrolments stabilize, even if only for one year. The concept of on emergent grant which is directly related to actual enrolments would provide the flexibility to respond intelligently to shifting patterns. Lokeheod University therefore strongly urged the Government to adopt the lotter concept and to provideemerging support r.:> this University which is adequate to meet the postsecondary educational requirements of Northwestern Ontario. In view of the foct that the Government hod not yet responded to this Brief, the Board of Governors, at its meeting of Friday, October 29, recommended that the Chairman, Mr. J.M. Fleming contact the Deportment of Colleges and Universities with a view to seeking an early decision. If the Government should respond in the most favorable manner to our request, the University will still have to reduce its expenditures over the next two years by more than $500,000. If the Government foils to respond to our situation, the extent of the required reductions will have to be for greater. To examine this and associated questions, the Senate Academic Planning Committee formed a subcommittee, composed of the Vice-President, two faculty members from each Faculty, and the Comptroller. The subcommittee was toreviewthe available information, statistics and projections, and make recommendations concerning possible economies which might be achieved. At its meeting of October 30, the Senate established this subcommittee as a Standing Committee of Senate, retaining the same membership. This Budget Committee is continuing its work. The Academic Planning Committee has also been meeting with each department and school in the University over the past two weeks. The purpose of these meetings is to review the educational goals and philosophies of all segments of the academic community, as well as their current programs and future plans. Landscape Development Although it appears that gophers hove been at work between the lake and the Centennial Building, such is not the case. Holes and mounds of dirt ore first evidence of the landscaping of that area, which will be completed next Spring. At that time shrubs, bushes and trees of up to eight feet in height will adorn the campus. The emphasis will be on plants native to Northern Ontario. This project will complete landscaping in the area mentioned above, as well as around the present entrance to the University off Oliver Road, and near the Power Plant. Tenders for the project ranged from $13,000 to$23,000, with theformerapplicotion being accepted by the University. Early Local History On Monday, November 8, at 8:00 p.m., the Lakehead University Women's Association will meet in the Faculty Lounge. Dr. M. Elizabeth Arthur, Chairman of the Department of History, will address the meeting on the topic of "Thunder Boy in The Late Nineteenth Century". �"Family Life" In Retrospect This past summer saw the completion of what has been lauded by many as one of the more successful and worthwhile programs ever offered at Lakehead University. The Family Life Program was made a reality through the continuing efforts of the Extension and Summer School office, the Lakehead University Faculty of Arts and particularly the Department of Psychology. The program, which was administered through the Department of Psychology, is recognized as two course credits by that department, and has been given similar status by a number of other Canadian Universities. A descriptive analysis of the students who enrolled in the program al so gives an indication of how great the respect accorded the program was. Of the 181 students enrolled, more than half had never been registered at Lakehead University in the past. Ninety percent of the total enrolment had come into the program as educators or prospective educators. These students included not only teachers, but also the administrators of our educational systems. These educators came to Thunder Bay from al I across Canada, realizing, as Lakehead University had, that Family Life and Sex Education is regarded as one of the more important and difficult subjects to teach because it focuses upon human values and opinions, rather than the mere presentation of factual material. The high value given the Lakehead University Family Life Program is further demonstrated by the fact that in the case of most of the teachers taking the course, their way was paid by their school boards. This further indicates the recognition by educators of the need to be concerned about human relationships, family stability and the alleviation of the negative attitudes toward sex prevalent in modern society. L, U. Media Services Centre The program directors designed the program to give it the highest standards possible, anticipating that a Family Life Program, if treated with the importance it deserves, could benefit the entire community and al so gain the University a reputation as a leader in this field. Such anticipation led the directors to assemble the most outstanding series of distinguished guest lecturers ever to speak at Lakehead University �on any topic. Perhaps, the finest and most impressive of al I the favourable comments and analyses accorded the program was that of the I ecturers, a 11 of whom vvere impressed by the program's theme and goals. Dr. Peter Bertocci of Boston University, who was one of the most distinguished and best received of al I the guest lecturers, was quoted, after his stay this summer, as saying "that there was no other such program comparable to Lakehead' s in al I of North America." This, the program administrators felt, was one of the finest comp I iments that could possibly have been given to the Family Life Program. Academically, it was an extremely demanding six week course. The program directors felt that if the program was to be successful it had to treat the compl ex subject at hand in such detai I as to refI ect its importance. Accordingly, all participants were required to attend all sessions regularly. Reports, essays, final exams, and a curriculum guide from teachers, were all made compulsory to assure success in the program. The reading for the course covered a wide range of topics related to Family Life and Sex Education, in considerable detail. Despite the challenging academic nature of the program, the passing rate was exceptional. This was the best indication possible that the participants in the program had been taken up by the spirit of the material and had put forth their best efforts to get from the course al I that it had to offer to them as students and educators. In short, the students were greatly motivated and took a sincere and mature approach to Family Life. For this reason, and because the program is counted asa dual credit in the Lakehead University Department of Psychology, the high academic standards wi 11 be even further strengthened in future programs. At the conclusion of the program, all of the students were required to complete an evaluation of the program. Students commented favourably on all aspects of the program including administration, material covered, readings, guest lecturers, discussion groups, student participation and even the social life associated with the summer. The results of this evaluation are to be used to the fullest extent possible in setting up future Family Life and Sex Education Programs. The majority of participants felt that they had dev- eloped, over the duration of the program, a more sound, balanced and mature view of human sexuality. They felt more aware of their own sexuality, a subject which many realized had been previously shrouded by various hang-ups al most entirely founded on historical factors. The students.having acquired new knowledge and attitudes, felt well prepared to go out into community educational institutions to promote some of what they had come to know. The students felt that perhaps now they could work together as educators of sexuality, an area where there had previously existed confusion centred around a lack of common definition of the goals of sex educators. This confusion stems from the constant changing of attitudes through the hi story of interpersonal relationships. The students felt that sex education could best be acco~lished through dialogue - discussion, criticism and deliberation. Dialogue means conversing openly, honestly and with purpose, sharing and growing, both on the part of students and teachers. It requires e~athy and acceptance. These they felt are the ideal conditions for the sharing of such knowledge as that imparted by the Family Life Program. The students who were able to benefit to this extent from the program attributed the program's success to the high calibre lecturers, to the fact that views were openly shared between peopleof different social, cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds, and finally to the dedication of the administrators in al I areas of the program. The considerable effort v.tiich the Psychology Department put into making the program a success shows the high relative importance with which they intend to treat this program. Although this was the fourth summer during which the program has functioned, this year's was relatively a much greater success due to the close affiliation with the University. It is hoped by all those conc8fned that the spirit of the Family Life Program of summer 1971 wi II be maintained through subsequent summers; for it is this spirit which will be the main force behind modern society's acquisition of a realistic solution to the problems presented by modern family I ife, and modern sexuality. Editor's Note: Responsibility for this report on the Family Life Program rests with the Faculty of Arts and the Department of Psychology. �It Research Commission On January 18, 1971, the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada approved the establishment of a Commission to examine certain aspects of university research in Canada and to propose means for the rationalisation of university research efforts. • • Dr. V. Paranjape, Chairman of the lakehead University Senate Research Committee, announced to Senate on Saturday, October 30, thatthis Commission will visitthe University on the 17th or 18th of November. Briefs which Dr. Paranjape has received to date recommend establishing a central body to review research grant applicants in a more efficient and equitable manner, and a centre of research at lakehead University, which would overcome problems relating to our remoteness from other Universities. Any member of the University community is requested to forward further briefs and suggestions to Dr. Paranjope, Chairman of the Deportmentof Physics.

The Chairman of the Lakehead University Board of Governors, Mr. J. M. Fleming, announced today that the Board had received and accepted, with regret, the resignation of the University's President and Vice-Chancellor, Dr. William G. Tamblyn. Mr. Fleming explained that the reasons for Dr. Tamblyn•s decision included his belief that a periodic change in the leadership of any institution was a sound practice, and his feeling that, after seven years of major development, he could no longer provide the energy that the position demanded. Mr. Fleming added that Dr. Tamblyn had informed the Executive Committee of the Board of his plans several months ago, at which time the Executive Committee had attempted unsuccessfully to persuade the President to reconsider. Mr. Fleming said that he was sure that he represented the opinion of the entire Board when he drew attention to Dr. Tamblyn's exceptional qualities of leadership and to the way in which the President has devoted himself to the development of Lakehead University. With the guidance of its first President, the institution has grown from a small College of Arts, Science and Technology with an enrolment of less than 500 students, to a flourishing University with an enrolment of 3, 000 fulltime students and another 3,000 students pursuing their studies on a part-time basis. Enrolment growth has been matched by the development of new academic programs, at both the graduate and undergraduate levels, by the attraction of well-qualified teaching staff, which has grown from less than 50 to well over 200, and by the addition of major capital facilities valued at more than $25 million. Dr. Tamblyn's role has been the major one in building a University to serve the needs of the people of Northwestern Ontario. Dr. Tamblyn's resignation will become effective in June 1972, allowing time for the University to seek the most qualified replacement. ***************************************30************************************** Department of Information Services LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY Postol Station 'P', Thunder Boy, Ontar io Phone 345-2121 , Ext. 300 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A/4Q]W88K a publication of the Lakehead University information off ice ~ VOLUME 4 ';_ ~ NUMBER 9 ~~,,,..,, NOVEMBER 1 . 1971 Enrolment Shortfall Dr. Holliday earned her B.Sc.N. and M.A. in rapid succession from Western Reserve University, Cleve· land, Ohio. She then returned to active duty as a Commander in the U.S. Navy Corps. As the first Navy Nurse assigned to N.A.T.O. at Izmir, Turkey, she received three official commendat1ous for "outstanding performances", one awarded by President C. Byer of Turkey. On the basis of figures compiled by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada from 50 universities and colleges, full-time enrolments for 197172 increased by 2% across Canada. This fal Is short of the 6% increase projected by the same group of institutions. Between 1956 and 1960, Dr. Hollld,iy studied and taught Social Psychology at Colu111l11a University, from which institution she earned hc>1 Ph.D. A regional breakdown of full-time enrolments shows the Atlantic provinces are up by 5% from last year, but below the projected increase of 6%. Quebec is 1% below last year's enrolment, but over its projected 4% decrease. (The information for Quebec is based on incomplete returns. Other sources indicate that actual 1971-72 enrolment may be somewhat higher than in 1970-71, and may confonn to the national average of a 2% increase.) Ontario is up 5% from 1970-71 although down from its projected increase. The western provinces show 99% of last year's enrolment, considerably below the 5% increase foreseen. Total part-time enrolment is up, although there are distinct differences between the regions. Ontario is the same as last year, the Atlantic and western provinces are up 4% and 6% respectively, while Quebec shows the highest increase ( 14%). Since the 50 institutions surveyed had 84% of the total full-time enrolment in 1970-71 (267, 490 of 316, 690). it seems I ikely that the percentages above reflect the present enrolment picture in Canadian higher education. From 1960 to 1966, she concentrated on important research pro1ects 111 Turkey, New York and Washington, D.C. Her research efforts in clinical nursing brought official accolades from tl1t' American Nurses Association, as well as inclus ion 111 Who's Who in American Education 111 1969. Dr. Holliday has been involved as administrative head in graduate programs and cl1111cal nursing research at Loyola University, Ch1caqo, and the Medical College of Augusta, Georgia. ~ince 1966. She is widely published in international nursing and educa• tion Journals, and she has authored a book entitled Public Health Nursing for the Sick at Home: A Descriptive Study, New York. 1967. Lakehead University welcomes Dr. Holliday. • The Economics Department of lakehead University is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. G. Tchibrikov from the U.S.S.R., to teach a course in Mar><ian Economics. The decision to offer this course was reached only after considerable debate and dis cuss ion established its relevance. • Dr. Jane Holliday, rec en ti y appointed Chairman of the School of Nursing, has enjoyed an extremely distinguished career as a nurse, administrator, educator and researcher. Dr. Tchibrikov, born in 1931, is married and has one one daughter. He joined the Economics Faculty of Moscow State University in 1949 and graduated in 1954. In 1964 he defended his thesis entitled "The Contradictions Among Monopot ies of the U.S. and Developing Countries on the Basis of Capital Export". Since 1961 he v.orked as a teacher in the Department of Political Economy of Moscow State University and since 1968 as a lecturer there. Dr. Tchibri kov, specializing in capital export, has publisht.>d 16 scientific works and for the past five years has studied the effect of the export of capital on the economy of developed capitalistic countries. She began as a United States Navy Nurse in 1943. After the Second World War she served as head nurse at a veterans· hospital until her return to full -time study in 1947. He will present a paper entitled "The Teaching of Economics and The Organization of Economics Departments in the U.S.S.R. ", on Thursday, November 18 , 1971. from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Room L-4023. New Appointments �Women of Reconciliation Dr. A. Akram of the Psychology Department of Lakehead University has, over the past year, made use of $11,000 in grants from the Sisters of St. Joseph .of Sault Ste. Marie, to make analyses of their social structures. life style, ~ommitment and dress. He has recently been granted $15,000 to continue his research. This Congregation, extremely active in Northern Ont• ario, administers hospitals in Thunder Bay, Elliot Lake, Rainy River and Little Current, as wel I as numerous music conservatories and convents such as the Avila Centre, located near Lakehead University. Nuns' lives have become less cloistered as a result of the Roman Catholic Church becoming mofe aware of its social responsibilities in the early 1960's. Before that time, many convents had extremely rigid social structures which deeply affected I ife style and commitment. Their commitment was God-centred, and some of them experienced I ittle need for understanding social, legal and psychological questions pertai~ing to the "outside,. vvor1d. However, the Church 1s now emphasizing more than ever t-efore that the commitment of all its members should expand to include service to mankind as a whole. As a result, they must become more familiar with said questions in order to function in relation to society in general without undue stress. Many social changes have accompanied the Church's new approach. The most publicized has been the change in dress. In the Congregation studied, Dr. Akram discovered a very healthy attitude toward dress in relation to the sisters' life style. In order to facilitate their more active role· in the society outside their own community, the sisters organized workshops These groups. based upon the principles of collecti• vity and collegiality, enabled them to corre(ate new responsibilities. With respect to dress, a sister has freedom of choice, but only with the approval of the group. She is required to wear a habit unless she has wholesome reasons for breaking with tradition. For examp I e, a sister wi 11 be al lowed to wear con tempo rary dress to University classes if she argues sincerely that anonymity makes her feel more comfo_rtable in a learning situation. On the other hand, 1f her reason should in any sense conflict with her vows, approval will not be given. By analysing their life-style, Dr. Akram has helped the Sisters of St. Joseph to re-define their institution- al and personal commitment. This Congregation has always had two wel I-defined apostolates - education and health. They have provided necessary services in these areas for over a century, caring for the sick and the poor at a time when society was not fully aware of its responsibility to various segments of its members. However boards of education and hospital commissions ha~e arisen to take the load off their shoulders. This is another reason why the Sisters have found it necessary to re-define their role in serving mankind. They are now becoming concerned with the problems of the aged, who seem to be sadly neglected by social programs. They are even considering seeki_ng elected office on school boards and other social policy-making bodies in order to bring their unbiased pressure to bear on social action. However, this does not mean that the role of an individual Sister in a school or hospital has become redundant. Dr. Akram has suggested a renewed aposto• late for some members of the Congregation - that of a social conscience role, the catalyst of social action to cope with the problems and ills of modern day Canadian society. He suggests this will enable them to rise to the challenge of serving society as women of reconciliation. How Romantic Orchids? After a monocot flower has been po1 linated, the first product of fertilization is a single cell. This cell soon divides into 2, 4, 8, etc. and as hundreds of eel Is are formed they become organized into seeds as we know them. In orchids such development stops ata very early stage, the so-called seeds consisting of barely a hundred cells and showing none of the . differentiation mentioned above. They are essentially aborted seeds. Such ·seeds' are minute., with the consistency of a light. coarse powder. Yet, they have to develop to thousandfolds before they can produce plantlets capable of photosynthesising their own food. It is generally accepted by researchers in this field that the food reserves in the 'seeds' are too scanty to permit such development, and that the necessary nutrients are provided by symbiotic fungi. ,In nature, this situation must prevail for ten to twenty years (depending on the ppecies) before the orchid finally atains the flowering stage. Dr. G. Harvais, Biology Department has been studying orchid mycorrhiza ( root fungus) for over 10 years and is still attempting to find some answers to the innumerable questions which arise. �Senate Committee Associate Professor W.F.

It is therefore imperative to leave our native orchids untouched in nature unti I we know more about their life histories. A zealous but careless experimenter could destroy a species overnight. Nevertheless, many answers have been obtained, some indirectly by culturing the orchids (from seed) and the fungi together and separately in sterile cultures on a variety of defined media under control led conditions of temperature, i I lumination, etc. It is not possible, if we knew by what mechanisms orchids control and digest their fungi, that we could not only solve some problems of plant diseases but even turn a disease-causing fungus into a beneficial one?

With that disclaimer out of the way John White, Ontario's Minister of Colleges and Universities, began to list some of the things he feels are wrong with higher education in the province and how he would like them changed. He wants to see them more efficient ... "more scholar for the dollar" is the way he once put it, more teaching and less research-oriented, more egalitarian and less "aristocratic" and more willing to change. Though he doesn't issue direct orders to presidents at least one university administrator has summed up Mr. White's position as "he who pays the piper ... and calls the tune." He will pay - about $750-million for post•secondary education this year on behalf of Ontario taxpayers. And he calls the tune indirectly but strongly through such methods as interviews,public speeches and special reports. Last December the Lapp Report on engineering education in Ontario recommended wide changes, including the phasing out of some existing programs. In the latter half of next month the Commission on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario is expected to present a major report calling for wide changes in the university and college system. While these are not direct orders to the universities 11 there 1 s certainly a lot of moral suasion" Mr. White noted. In an interview this week Mr. White, 40, who was revenue minister from until this spring's Cabinet shuffle, maintained a hard line on university spending. 1968 Shortly after taking over the education post, he announced cuts in building and graduate studies budgets. This fall most of the province s universities and colleges got fewer students than expected and the universities alone stand to lose about $14 million in revenue expected from last spring's forecasts. 1 At least three of the newer and smaller universities have approached the Government asking for changes in grant structure, which is tied to actual enrolment this December 1. because they hired staff based on the inaccurate projections. I 1 m not prepared to accept responsibility for those miscalculations/' he stated. 11 The Minister said the Council of Ontario Universities which represents presidents and administrators, last spring forecast a shortage of 3,500 places for freshmen this fall. "We asked them to re-evaluate the first year capacity which they had available for students in this province," he said. (Recently Davidson Dunton, who was president of the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada until last week and is president of Carleton University in Ottawa until he resigns next June, claimed the Government pressured Ontario universities to increase their forecasts and prepare for 3,500 more students than originally planned.) Department of Information Serv ices LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY Postal Station 'P', Thunder Bay, Ontar io Phone 345-2121, Ext, JOO �- 2However 5,000 fewer students than planned actually did show up and universities are left with too many staff members for the grants they will get this year. "The first thing they have to do is cut their costs," Mr. White continued. "They have to attract more students to their institutions to get them up to a scale which is economical. "This cannot be done by people sitting around the boardroom wringing the1r hands. 11 Two of the small, new universities facing financial problems are Laurentian in Sudbury and Lakehead in Thunder Bay. Mr. White said there has been too great a flow of students from the north t<' Southern Ontario universities and too little reverse flow. He said it was up to the new institution to use some 11 pioneering talents" and bring in new courses to fulfil society's needs rather than trying to copy big, old universities. 1 will offend a lot of people if I use the word promotion but ... I think these emerging universities have to promote their wares to a much greater extent than they have." 11 Asked what will happen to the small universities such as Laurentian, which is expecting a deficit of more than $1-million, Mr. White said 11 it is their problem at the present time ... I suppose they do what any other organization does if income falls short of expenses ... they attempt to increase income and they attempt to decrease their expenses. 11 "We think the onus is on them to balance." Mr. White has no criticisms of the building boom era of the 1960s, but said that it is over and university leaders should turn their thoughts to the product rather than its housing. From his own experience in the University of Western Ontario, where he got a business diploma in 1947 and an £conomics MA in 1966, he had criticisms of the lack of change in 20 years. He said the teaching was the only thing that had not changed in London in that period. To get new thinking in universities he wants changes like the one at the University of Toront~,where next July l the old senate and board of governors will be scrapped for a 42-member governing council. The council will include eight students, 12 faculty members, women and 11outs i ders" who are supposed to breathe new ideas into the old institution. Mr. White, responsible for 14 provincially supported universities, Ryerson Polytechnical Institute, the Ontario College of Art and the 20 community colleges said his job is to 11 interpret society's wishes to ... administrators". There is a deep-seated feeling that a number at this juncture ... I think the criticism springs failures of the universities in the 1960s so much most of us have about the role of universities in 11 of changes are needed not so much from any as the puzzlement which the 1970s." "I don't see it as my function to say to the University of Toronto you must do thus and so ... I 1 m simply asking a number of questions in the hope of motivating the decision makers at that level to look at things afresh because the way we did it before isn't good enough now and the way somebody eise is doing it isn't good enough for us. 11 �' - 3 - Aside from calling for more efficiency he expressed these views: "I would like to see the universities somewhat more open ... I would like to see them very deliberately rid themselves of the correlation which is observable between the income and wealth holdings of parents and the probability of a student going to university. "The university cannot stand aloof from the community in a way that sometimes is observed at the present ... 1 don't want them to become quasicity halls. "There should be a definite effort made to make the universities more egalitarian. I am thinking of the elitism which I seem to sense by which a person having a particular title inherits a particular status ... and I think universities are one of the very few remaining sectors of the society where this old-fashioned elitism is to be found/' He praised moves by Waterloo University to open some of its buildings to the corrmunity and Western to establish a joint art museum with the city. On the rapidly expanding community college system, which was established six years ago from the old technical institutes, Mr. White said he would resist any effort to have them offer arts courses which would lead to university studies. He said experience in the United States showed in such cases "the colleges themselves just become very pale carbon copies of the universities." He also predicted more emphasis would be put on part-time and continuing education and indicated the post-secondary education commission report would probably have more to say on that subject. Asked about this fall's enrolment, which brought 6,000 fewer college and university students than expected, he had some theories. He said jobs are less related to degrees now and "it's becoming obvious having a piece of paper called a BA is no longer a means by which a person in the work force c3n automatically acquire a significant income differential ... and I think that lesson is being learned and I'm very glad it is being 1earned. 11 More people are also taking time off from studies to work and will study later. Others are just taking off for holidays in Europe. He said it might even be proof of the theory advanced a year ago by educator Ivan Illich that North American society would "de-school" itself radically in 18 months. Mr. White said one obvious need pointed out by recent trends and problems related to graduates getting work is the need for job forecasting. He has asked the government's Committee on University Affairs to look into the feasibility of job forecasting for the first time. Mr. White said it is a new field and fraught with peril but "the present system is the worst of all ... namely letting students find through casual, uninfonned gossip in the corridors whether chemistry graduates are more in demand than biology graduates." � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

He challenged the University to be more innovative and more creative in attracting the maximum number of students from Northwestern Ontario and outside the region as wel I. When pressed to make some suggestions, he said that he had many thoughts on the matter but preferred to leave programs and curricula to teachers and educational theorists. In reply to specific requests by the University, the Minister said that he was prepared to make recommendations to ''my col leagues on the Treasury Board" for special grants to help the University in this •'emer• gency" situation. However, he emphasized that he would oppose putting any University "on the dole forever ... The Minister expressed a feeling of concern about the formula system for financing University programs. At present, Government support is based on actual enrolments. In a year such as this, when many students have chosen to discontinue their studies, the universities, particularly smaller ones I ike Lak ehead, find themselves in serious trouble. Mr. White hopes to .vork something out whereby this kind of si tuation can be minimized in the future. VOLUME 4 NUMBER 10 DECEMBER 2, 1971 time-worn, predictable methods, rather than to try bold, new programs. However, after consulting with members of the Board of Governors, Senate, Faculty and Administration, as well as with some students, Mr. White praised the "searching review" of all activities at Lakehead University toward the ends of making post-secondary education more economical as we! I as more exciting. He praised the "fantastic strides" of the Uni varsity and the ci ty of Thunder Bay in the past six year~. and sensed in his audience of 300 " a burning desire to make this institution extra-ordinary." The Minister suggested working on specific specialties which would give Lakehead University an international reputation, He al so advocated bold, new approaches in extending the University to outlying areas even more than at present. On November 26, Lakehead University President, Dr. W. G. Tamblyn, announced that the University had been informed by the Provincial Government that some of the extra financial support which had been previously requested would be forthcoming. Although details of the extra grant were not yet available, Dr. Tamblyn was confident that these funds would enable the University to maintain its present program offerings. Canada: Three Cheersl At the same time, though, he praised the formula system in that it has kept political interference out of University affairs. And he feels that this positive situation should continue. On the weekend of December 10-11-12, members of the Committee for an Independent Canada will hold their first national convention in Thunder Bay. Confirmed participants include Walter Gordon, Farley Mowat, Eric Keirans, Max Saltzman and Jack McClelland. Chairman of the convention is Peter C. Newman, editor of Macleans. One faculty member referred to the Minister's twopronged request of increased efficiency and bold innovation as being contradictory. An institution which is asked to cut spending tends to fall back on Thunder Bay was chosen as the site of this premier conference because it is considered the hinge of Canada. And the nerve-centre of this exciting weekend wi II be Lakehead University. �Commission Reactivated Dr. N. Weir At recent meetings of Senate and Board of Governors, Dr. W. G.

Presidential Shuffle June 30, 1972 will be a fateful day for at least three Ontario universities, for that is the effective date of retirement of their respective presidents. Dr. Henry G. Thode, President and Vice-Chancellor of McMaster University recently joined Professor T. H. B. Symons of Trent University and Dr. W. G. Tam• blyn of Lakehead University, in announcing his retirement on the above date. The University of Toronto, however, is fortunate to have found a president in Dr. John R. Evans, who has resigned as Vice-President of Health Sciences and Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at McMaster University. �Student Employment Notes eAn enterprising group of graduating students in the Honours Bachelor of Commerce Degree Program at Lakehead University devised a scheme to enhance their chances of landing decent jobs after graduation.

G. Tamblyn - Although specific details are not yet available, the Government of Ontario has confirmed its willingness to provide the University with some additional funds in order to alleviate the impact of our enrolment shortfall. At the same time, the Minister of Colleges and Universities, the Honourable John White, has made it clear that the University, for its part, must make considerable economies and must develop innovative, attractive program offerings in order to retain and attract students. On the strength of the Government's preliminary indication of extra financial support, the University has been able to minimize the staff reductions required. With the exception of two probationary appointments, the reductions were confined to the non-renewal of a number of short-term appointments. Such appointments are normally made on a one-year basis in order to replace regular faculty members who are on temporary leave. Under our present circumstances. the teaching responsibi I ities of faculty members going on leave during 1972/73 shall be assumed by their departmental colleagues in order that our course offerings do not suffer. Difficult decisions have been necessary in order to reduce the operating costs of administrative and academic departments, without jeopardizing essential services and the teaching and research program of the University. This task has been made more difficult by the fact that provision had to be made for additional faculty for the fourth years of the Forestry and the Physi ca I and Hea I th Education degree programs, which will be offered for the first time in 1972/73. The University's next step must be to continue its review of the present course and program offerings, now without the counter-productive stresses of the financial emergency, with the explicit objective of qualitative, creative improvement. W. G. Tamblyn, President CUA Report On Tuesday, December 7, representatives of Lakehead University met with the Provincial Government's Committee on University Affairs to present the University's Annual Brief. This year's meeting was held at York University in Toronto. The two major topics for discussion during the meeting were the level of emerging support the University can expect to receive in view of the enrolment fluctuation experienced this year, and the proposal for a new conversion program in Engineering. On the first matter, the University received assurances that the extra emergent grant which the Provincial Government has indicated wi II be forthcoming for the current year was not simply an ad hoc arrangement. The Committee was confident that the policy on emergent grants would be revised so that the level of extra financial support in future years would reflect the actual enrolment situation. The Engineering proposal seemed to be well received by CUA. Members of the Committee asked many questions about the nature and purpose of the conversion program, the Ii kely enrolments to be expected, and the financial implications. The University's President, Dr. W. G. Tamblyn reminded the Committee that a small university which was required to reduce its expenditures could not be expected to launch innovative programs without special government support. Dr. D. T. Wright, Chairman of the Committee of University Affairs. agreed that a higher operating weight was probably required for this conversion program than was given to ordinary Engi nearing programs. During the discussion on enrolment projections, Dr. Wright recognized that CUA and the Provincial Government had some responsibi I ity to assist new and experimmtal programs such as this one by not allowing duplicate programs to develop elsewhere which would compete for the same students. For the second consecutive year, the University sought from CUA and the Government special funding for our Off-Campus Program. Due to financial considerations, off-campus courses currently require a minimum enrolment of approximately 15 students. Special funding would make it possible with as few as 8 students. The Chairman of CUA expressed the feeling that extra funds were surely in order for courses involving extra costs for travel, etc. The University al so requested that consideration be given to prov id- �ing special financial support for non-credit courses given in the region. At the present time the Province does not give any support for non-credit courses, even though such courses might be of greater benefit to some communities in Northwestern Ontario. Other items discussed at Tuesday's Meeting included: -the po_ssibil ity of receiving higher operating weights for students enrolled in technology programs, consistent with those given to similar programs in Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology; -the academic review of al I programs offered at Lakehead University which began this fall; -the enrolment shorfall experienced throughout the Provincial system this year and possible reasons for it; -the recognition that Lakehead University is a regional resource centre for all of Northwestern Ontario; -the possibility of attracting students from Southern Ontario to study in the North so that they might learn more about their province (on!:' suggestion was to arrange exchange programs with other Universities so that students could spend at least one year of their University career in the North); -and the possibi I ity of a music program in the near future to COIT1)Iement the work of the Lakehead Symphony Orchestra. Lakehead was the last of Ontario's fourteen provincially assisted universities to meet with the Committee on University Affairs this fall. The Committee will prepare its recorrrnendations to the Government early in the New Year. These in tum will be the basis for Government decisions to be announced at the time of the provincial budget in early spring. Christmas Notes eThis is the year's final edition of LU WEEK.

Lakehead University Overseas As a part of Summer Session 1971, two Lakehead University departments presented overseas courses. The Department of English offered three courses in England and the Department of Languages offered five French courses in Caen, France. Both of these programs ran concurrent with on-campus summer programs beginning July 1 and ending about August 16. There were a total of fourteen students enrolled in the English program. They left Thunder Bay airport on July 1 for London, England. The program was centred at The Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon which is affiliated with the University of Birmingham and at Corpus Christi College, Oxford University. The group spent two days touring historical points of interest in London. The three courses in this program were Shakespeare, Advanced Shakespeare and Modem Drama. These courses were offered at credit and honours credit levels and students could try one or two courses depending upon their ability and stamina. t The Department of English embarked on such a program hoping that it would allow students to broaden their horizons with respect to the subject matter they had chosen to pursue. This is, in fact, what happened. At the end of the summer the students referred to the program as an experience in learning which gave them new perspectives on true education. The students embarked on the program for the credits offered, but also because it provided the opportunity to learn through travel. The first part of the program was centred in Stratford, where the students stayed in private homes. This made them feel more a part of the learning which they were experiencing. The students attended plays presented at the RJyal Shakespeare Theatre and were able to meet and $)eak with the actors from the plays which they had watched. This immediate access to Shakespeare and his works made the courses seem enriched and alive according to the students. In Stratford, al 1 lectures were given at the Shakespeare Institute which offers one of the best reference I ibraries for Shakespeare and drama anywhere. After leaving Stratford, the group moved to Oxford where they were able to study with a group of students from the University of Calgary who were in Oxford on a similar program. In the lecture sessions at Corpus Christi College, Lakehead University students were exposed to professors from both Lakehead and Calgary. �Other guest lecturers were made available for the students throughout the program. These lecturers included personnel from the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, The University of Birmingham, The University of British Columbia and Oxford University. Student evaluations of the program, submitted after the students returned to Canada, revealed many constructive criticisms which the program director, Dr. George Merri II, Chairman of the Department of Eng1i sh at Lakehead University, says will be considered in the preparation of future overseas programs. These evaluations showed that the administrative details of the program were wel I executed by the Department of English and the Summer Session Office. l'Kftr--.....-! workshops, critical reports and midterm and final exams, in an effort to maintain the best possible academic nature in the courses. According to Dr, Merrill, examinations covered not only academic but also cultural and theatrical material, in keeping with the entire program. Finally, the students were given a week for free travel before the return to Canada. The students felt this gave them time to follow up on some activities and interests which previous courses had made impossible. The French courses, administered through the Department of Languages, sent a total of forty-five students to Caen, France, where they learned through an almost total immersion in the French language and cul tu re. Students in this program lived in private dwellings with French students who acted as constant tutors. They studied at the University of Caen under Lakehead University professors and they al so took lectures from the teaching staff of the University of Caen. On four of the seven v.eekends in France, the students took part in excursions throughout the French countryside around Caen. These tours provided 8111)18 insights into French culture, and were much 8PPreciated t,,, the students. Comments by the students in the Caen program with respect to the program's value ....ere not unlilce those accorded the English studies which took place in Stratford and Oxford. Kenn i h.-.or1h Castle With respect to the stay in England, the students appreciated fully the way in which the program proceeded. Side trips throughout the English countryside touched points such as Warwick Castle, Coventry Cathedral, Stonehenge, Bath and Ludlow. With respect to all such outings it is interesting to note that the students claimed that at no time did they feel like tourists. Rather, they felt that they were somehow meant to be there. A W The courses were strenuous, but the students who embarked on the program were prepared to work, and this attitude, coupled with the attitudes acquired overseas as a result of direct contact with the subject material, led to a high passing rate in all student courses. The program incorporated readings, practical Students in both programs, the staff that went to teach the courses, the program administrators and the Lakehead University Faculty of Arts all feel that the value of such a fonn of learning cannot be overemphasized. One of the students put the feelings of all into words when she wrote, "a learning experience of such a fine quality camot be translated into words." ltis with this spirit that the LakeheadUniversity Faculty of Arts hopes once again, next summer, to offer overseas programs in the best interests of all students in search of a better qua I ity education. Editor's Note: Responsibility for the above article rests entirely with the Faculty of Arts, the Department of English and the Department of Languages. �weeKlu evenes Friday December 10 Saturday December 11 Sunday December 19 -L.U.

Mr. Justice Lawrence T. Pennell, the new Chancellor of McMa st er University, during his address at Autumn Convocation on Friday evening, November 19. "Our society has been carried forward by a faithful adherence to the principle we describe in the oversimplified phrase, 'Government by laws and not by men'", said Chancellor Pennel I. "However, we must never forget that it is implicit in this philosophy that the discontented have a duty as wel I as a right to voice openly their dissatisfaction, and the contented have an obligation to tolerate and answer opposition. "But something has happened and something is happening to our society. We are, for the moment at least, in a period of agitation and criticism of our democratic institutions. We must not corrplacently assume that the storm of protest is wholly without cause or provocation. Nor is it sufficient for us to merely denounce it. The most distinctive feature of a free society is the right to dissent, to protest, and to debate with one another in the search for better answers to better questions. Let us remember that democracy is something more than laws and a form of government - it is a great spirit. "Tolerance is the basic principle of a free society. To respond to protest and criticism gracefully, sincerely and respectfully • and at the same time to insist on due respect for your own corrpetence and interest• will not be easy. Sane and honest compromise is an indispensable instrument in the practice of a democracy. But there is no room for any form of lawlessness. "The task of bringing social cohesion and purpose into our society and providing enough for those who have too little wi II inevitably bring an increase in the functions and size of government. Those in authority must be constantly reminded that the whole purpose of government is to secure the freedom of the individual. Of what avail is freedom, if we do not live? If government is to express healthy public opinion, it is evident that it must be generated by a disciplined and informed public mind. You have welltrained minds not easily deceived by distortion of facts or stampeded by prejudices. To ignore your political duties is tantamount to an escape from freedom ... " Anybody Seen Mount Loo?

The Extension Program of Lakehead University reaches across Northwestern Ontario to bring twenty-four credit courses to the people of twenty-one different communities in fourteen separate teaching centres. Ken Morrison, Director of Extension and Summer Session, submits the following account of the University's attempts to extend itself even further. If you allow your eye to drift northwest from the Canadian Lakehead some four hundred miles, it will eventually focus oo a large lake, Big Trout Lake. This lake is called home by a community of some two thousand Indians, mostly on welfare. The wildlife, fishing and mining resources which once sustained these peoples have, in the main, been depleted. Along with the Indians are some thirty white adults teachers, nurses, Department of Transport weather· men, the Hudson's Bay manager and so on. For two years, 1970 and 1971, Lakehead Univeroffered a spring tenn course in Big Trout Lake. It was quite an experience. The foray into Big Trout was a response to two challenges. The first was a challenge for educational opportunity issued by 1he principal of the Big Trout Lake school. An extremely energetic man, he was flying down to Kenora at his own expense every second weekend to take one of our courses. If he could do that, why couldn't Lakehead University take a course to him and the dozen or so others who expressed an interest in enrolling? The other cha! I enge was the broader one presented by the extension division of the University of Minnesota just to the south. A full page advertisement in the Minnesota papers proclaimed on an outline map of the state that anyone within these boundaries is on the campus of the University of Minnesota. The claim was backed up by the information that there were some five hundred locations in the state at which one co1,1ld take University of Minnesota courses, including approximately one hundred and eightyfive within the metropolitan area of Minneapolis-St. Paul. This is a challenge to urban universities to go into the colllTlunity instead of having the community come to them. And it is a challenge to regional universities, like Lakehead, to find some imaginative way to extend their programs. Lakehead University already covers a campus almost as large as southern Ontario through weekend visits of instructors to every centre large enough to support a high school. Was further extension possible? Big Trout Lake presents fonnidable logi stic chal len- ges. It is beyond the northern limits of casual flying, and all planes in this zone must carry survival kits and emergency radio equipment. At the moment, only float and ski planes can be used to get in and out, which means that in spring and fall the community is cut off from the outside world for weeks at a time. {It need not be so pennanently. A landing strip is being built. But regional scuttlebut has it that ooe of the slowest contractors in the north got the job, and the site chosen was a bog. After three years' work one can hardly drive a truck down the main runway in mid-summer, and a Bristol freighter which tried to land a year ago ended up nose down on the side of the runway where it still stands, a silent tribute to our northern vision.) Oh yes, there is radio-telephone communication with the outside lt\Orld. Big Trout is listed in Bell's Northern Ontario directory; but try to get through. My batting average is about one in ten. I v.ould not want to get sick in Big Trout Lake. Investigation indicated that the duration of the University's Spring Tenn was the best time for a course in Big Trout, for both the weather and the universityeligible population seemed most stable during this period. The big problem was the spring break-up. Once in, the instructor was stuck there. And if the break-up came early, as it did in 1970, there could be great difficulty getting the instructor to Big Trout after his regular on-campus classes end. No amount of preparation could quite prepare us for the problems encountered in offering the course in such an isolated area. The prices - bread at 65 cents a loaf, milk at $1.00 a quart when you can get it, and the transportation! The scheduled flying service appears to treat its responsibilities most cavalierly. The first year the texts went out in advance as insurance and sat at Pickle Crow unti I the course was half over. In 1970 the "sked" was delayed while it rescued a survey party isolated by the early breakups, and then flew off witho.ut our instructor. Mail is erratic, to say the least. And finally, we had a few unusual student problems. What do you do when a student asks permission to write his final examination in jail, and then is released 100 early to write there, and too late to get home to write with the regu I ar group? There were tensions too, in the classes, the tensions which in· evitably appear in a tightly-knit, isolated community making a learning climate difficult to achieve. In sum, what are the lessons of the Big Trout Lake A W �t a • experima,t? On the positive side we served a community which previously had never been offered university programs exc~t through correspondence courses. Also, a few Indians, eligible to atterrpt a university course under Lakehead's adult admissions policies, and potentially able scholars, were given the opportunity to atterrpt a university course. One, at least, has come on to the carrpus full time as a result of this experia,ce. On the negative side, the program 'MlS extremely expensive and difficult to operate. Barring special subsidies, it is uni ikely to be repeated in the near future for financial reasons alone. The educational discontinuities in the native population and the transient nature of the white population precludes, at the moment, the creation of larger and more economically viable university classes. In addition, the living conditions of _most of the citizens ~f Big Trout Lake are not conducive to regular and serious study habits. In the long run, I have no doubt Lakehead University wi 11 return to Big Trout Lake. The efforts of other educational authorities are raising basic educational standards in these communities, and in time the demand for university courses will strengthen. Modern technology wi II eventually help solve the problems of introducing higher education in remote areas. Yes, and the air strip at Big Trout may one day be completed and that Bristol freighter salvaged or scrapped. But, for the moment, Big Trout Lake appears to be the point at which Lakehead University Extension becomes over-extended. Graduate Fellowships The Honourable John White, Minister of Colleges and Universities for Ontario, has announced that the Ontario Graduate Fellowship Program wi 11 be continued in 1972-73. This will provide an opportunity for those studying the whole question of graduate supPort to complete their deliberations and to prepare appropriate recommendations. The tenns and conditions under which these awards wi II be given in 1972-73 will be essentially the same as in 1971-72, pending a complete review, and on the understanding that a major change in graduate student support may be anticipated by 1973. The number of awards to be granted in 1972-73 will be determined at a later date when more detai Is are known of the total requirements of the universities of Ontario and the arrount of financial supPort which the Government can provide. It is understood, however, that the total amount of money to be expended for this purpose will not exceed that granted in 1971-72, namely $3.2 million.

Budgets for the current year, particularly those of ~e support services departments, were carefully reviewed and pared. After the most comprehensive review of academic departments undertaken to date at the University, a number of decisions were taken which were designed to bring next year's expenditures into line with both academic objectives and estimated revenues. These included changes in the procedures affecting sabbatical leave, so that the appointment of replacements for those going on leave in 1972/73 would be an exception rather than a rule, the non-renewal of a number of one-year tenn appointments (of the 19 tenn appointments which were not renewed, 13 had been specifically appointed as replacements for permanent faculty now on teave but expected to return in 1972/ 73), and the reduction of 21 staff members (between June 30, 1971, and December 31, 1971) in the support services departments. Restrictions on "travel al lowances, supplies, and other items of expenditure were also introduced. Then, in early December, the University wits infonned by the Minister of Colleges and Universities that an increased extra-formula grant would be forthcoming for the current year. The combination of reduced expenditures and the extraordinary grant would appear to enable the development of the University to proceed without the prospect of a deficit for 1972/73." ~ tudents should take careful note of the fact that acuity and staff reductions wi II not affect current rograms. Nobody's chances of proceeding toward he degree of his choice have been jeopardized in ny way by the measures described above. Search Committee VOLUME 4 NUMBER 13 JANUARY 27, 1972 ( 1) that endorsement of a new president should require at least a 2/3 majority of Senate; and (2) that the Search Committee be empowered to co-opt another student member with full voting rights on the Committee.

COU Brief To CUA On Tuesday, December 14, 1971, the Council of Ontario Universities presented a brief entitled "Graduate Enrolments in Relation to Requirements for Academic Staff in Ontario Universities" to the Ontario Committee on University Affairs. Continuing questions and concerns raised about the steady expans~on of various graduate programs, the numbers and influence of non-Canadian university teachers, and the alleged "overproduction" of graduate degrees in Canada prompted the assemblage of this brief. More recently, the Ontario Government's c_u~ac~ in numbers of graduate fellowships and lim1tat1ons on the penni ssible amount of earnings for graduate students appears to have contributed to a dampening of enrolment growth. Th~ COU ~rief ur?.es that any surplus which may now exist be viewed not as a surplus in the real sense but a reservoir of talent which should be allocated to the many probl~ms a public policy nature facing our Canadian society. Any overreaction to "alarmist" reports might intensify normal imbalances between supply and demand of highly qualified manpower, and upset the market which al ready appears to be operating in the direction of reduced intake of Ph D seekers. Ontario universities at present ~ave an ~d~u~te supply of junior Canadian staff in most d1 sc 1phnes, but have found a serious shortage of experienced senior Canadian academics for teaching, research and administrative positions especially in the social and health sciences. ' ~! At the January 12 meeting of the Senate of Lakehead Concerning the employment of students awarded University, proposals for a Presidential Search ComPhD's in 1970-71 in Canada, figures are supplied in mittee were accepted in principle by Senate. Among the brief for students graduating in humanities recommendations for changes in tenns of reference soc_ ial sci_ences_ (excluding education), phys·ica'I membership and procedures of the Search Committe~ were the following: sc~ences (including mathematics), engineering, life - - -- - - - - ~ - - -- -- - - -- - - - -- ..:s~c~1en ~ c:: es, and health sciences. In most cases, the �student was interviewed when he submitted his thesis. At that time only 6% of those graduating had not already obtained employment; that figure would now be lower. The brief asks: What of the future, and of responses to the general belief that there is an over-production problem? One danger is a drop in new enrolments {not just a drop in the rate of growth, but an actual decrease in numbers). followed in a year or two by a belief that jobs are [Ping to be easy to find again. with a resultant increase in enrolment - in short, a periodic fluctuation possibly involving increasing extremes. The most disturbing thing is that in Ontario, presumably in part due to students' perceptions of the economic situation, and in part due to the drastic cut in various forms of student support, it is clear that the master's enrolment in 1971-72 is less than in 1970-71 in every field except the Medical Sciences. ... Careful analysis of where these decreases occur, and a knowledge that the full impact of the support reduction is not yet apparent since it does not apply to students "in course", lead to the conclusion that the PhD intake in these subjects will be down very markedly for 1972-73 unless there is a carefully devised student support program. Wil I iston Report On the evening of February 4th, 1972 at 8 p.m., Walter B. Wi 11 i ston, author of "Present Arrangements for the Care and Supervision of Mentally Retarded Persons in Ontario", wi II speak to the pub! ic at Twin haven School, concerning the "Blueprint" for the future of the retarded. This controversial report, prepared at the behest of the Minister of Health, The Honourable A. B. R. Lawrence, has stirred considerable controversy .!2ll-Jb.e subj~t of mental retardation at all levels of Government and aT the resource level in the community. The recent announcement by the Honourable Thomas L. Wells, Minister of Social and Family Services, concerning financial arrangements for a revolutionary New Day Care Cmtre in Thunder Bay, is one of the avenues of community development endorsed by "The Williston Report." Program For The Future More and more people today are concerned about environmental quality. They find they cannot swim or fish in rivers befouled by untreated sewage or industrial effluent. They see land eaten up by unsightly urban sprawl and garbage dumps; they breathe the fumes from factories and · cars; have their peace shattered by noise. And on weekends and holidays they pour out of the cities to get away from it all and often find they have exchanged one set of problems for another. The Canadian Council of Resource and Environment Ministers is an inter-governmental coordinating body which was set up Jointly by the federal and ten provincial governments, to promote the orderly management of Canada's renewable resources. The Council is sponsoring a series of local and regional conferences regarding Canada's environment, in order to ensure that its advice to governments is more a IIinclusive of personal concerns. If you are interested, as an individual or representative of a group, in taking part in the Man and Resources Conference program, please contact the Information Office ( Extension 300) or write directly to: J. L. Stichter, Ontario Committee, Man and Resources Conference, P. 0. Box 223, Queen's Park, Toronto 182, Ontario. Going To The Dogsl The University Committee would like to remind members of the University Community that it is a violation of health regulations to al low pets into campus b_uildings. It should be remembered that dogs, etc., are notyet committed to the "clean-up-the-environment" campaign, and consequently are liabte to bear witness to their sense of freedom from our society's restrictions in very inappropriate places. The Committee would also request everyone's cooperation in keeping their pets on a leash when on campus. Besides the nuisance of having to "tiptoe through the tulips (or snow)", doggie deposits are harmful to plants and shrubs.

Dennis Cromarty, twenty-four-year-old native of Big Trout Lake, receives the University Award of the Federal Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development from Mr. R. F. Brown, Vocational Counsellor for the local branch of the Department. The award, in the amount of $300, is made on the basis of academic achievement and personal qualities. Its purpose is to assist the recipient in his current studies. and also in the year to come. That suggests to me that our 20 CAATs are performing a significant service in terms of two important priorities in this province, and indeed in Canada the important priorities of giving young people the training they need to secure jobs in a difficult employment market, and of contributing toward the attainment of the outstanding potential we have for productivity growth in this province ... Mr. Cromarty is presently in his fourth year of Honours Economics at Lakehead University, and he hopes to enter law school this fall. I can tell you, from both my experience in Queen's Park and my previous service in education, that I am not enamoured by the traditional preoccupations with student-teacher ratios and other standards which appear to ignore many of the new developments now avai I able to education. I hope that our ingenuity can be directed primarily towards efficiency and performance in education ... As I indicated earlier, our current challenge is to contain our expenditures within the existing tax revenues, particularly since we are trying to encourage our economy to expand and provide more jobs for our unemployed. Also in the picture. at the left, is John Kerr. Dean of Students and administrator for scholarships and bursaries.

I note, with some pleasure, that you have been receiving some good business press lately. The February 5 issue of the Financial Post suggests that you are wagging the universities' tails with the success you have had in preparing our young people for the I abour force. The Post article states that the graduates of community colleges in Ontario and other provinces are faring better in the employment market than university graduates with general degrees. The comments of Let me emphasize, then, that the current budgetary plan does not provide any significant increase in the share of the provincial tax pool that wi 11 be app I i ed to post- secondary education. Nor can we take funds from other public programs because, as you are aware, we are al so being asked to finance cost increases in medical services, in protecting the environment and in providing other essential public services. The request I must make of you, obviously, is to give the people of Ontario the utmost in economy and efficiency in delivering education services at your colleges. The challenge, as your previous minister stated so succinctly, is "more scholar per dollar". I do not think it would be appropriate for me to comment on education policy, particularly when we are studying and receiving comments on the Draft Report of the Commission on Post-Secondary Education, recently issued by Dr. Wright. However, I believe it is fair for me to suggest that the post-secondary community must consider the cost factors in its discussion on such questions as accessi bi I ity, scope, and curricula. Education, whether we like it or not, is involved in the political processes - it affects the taxpayers' take-home pay - and our investment in this service must come within the realm of public acceptance and support ... �.. : .';/;: .. -~ I, ' --~·~ 'Ii' ; .• .••• ·~}' ..-: •. I suggest to you, as an example, that we must ensure that the substantial investment made by Ontario taxpayers in plant and equipment is being utilized for productive courses of study - for education that will contribute to the economic and cultural well-being of our province. It may be difficult, for example, to justify even a few and isolated courses in such topics as witchcraft or flower arrangement, even though their marginal costs may be smal I. Obviously, if we fill our colleges with questionable courses, we wi II have pressures to extend the plant and equipment to provide facilities for cou;ses thcit are really WO rthwh i I e. The public, in my opinion, wi II not tolerate any wasteful competition with, or duplication of, the services provided by our universities. Nor will our people condone any blatant extravagance in attempting to attract enrolment or to inflate student popul ation figures ... I do not want b let my personal prejudices get out of _ hand on some of these subjects but I think it is realistic to expect greater pressure on all politicians, at whatever level of government, to ensure that the taxpayers' subsidy to education is truly justified. While we can, and wi 11, give leadership to what we call the "General Public", and can help to mould its priorities, there is no question in my mind that, at this stage, we run a great risk of developing further reaction against the high cost of education of recent years and that this might have tragic and farreaching results. Commission Hearings On Monday, March 6, the Ontario Commission on Post-Secondary Education holds hearings at Lakehead University. An ad hoc committee of Senate is currently preparing the University's reaction to the Draft Report which was recently made public. For History Teachers The History Teachers Association of Thunder Bay will be holding a professional development day at Lake head University on Friday, February 25. The general theme of the program wi 11 focus upon ways and means of adapting reconstruction for the teaching of history in the classroom. Mr. Peter Styrmo, Senior Museums Advisor for the Ontario Government, wi 11 address the teachers at 10:30 a.m. in the Board Room of the A~ma Mater Society. After a luncheon break, Mr. Sherman Perry, Superintendent of the Grand Portage National Monument, will speak on the use to be made of historical reconstruction such as that taking place in the Old Fort William project. Specifically, he wi II concentrate on "Objects as evidence in the teaching of history". The program will continue with a panel discussion involving Mr. Styrmo, Mr. Perry, and Mr. John Naprawa, Di rector of Operations for National Heritage. Regardless of the trend in courses or in the pol icy of admissions, I think it is incumbent on every admiriistrator to concern himself with the incidence and level of costs. I believe that, as trustees, we must strive for maximum utilization of J?lant and staff. Questions about the program should be directed to Mr. Dave Delgaty at Selkirk Collegiate, or at his home number 577-1538. As Chairman of Management Board, let me assure you, here and now, that we cannot and wi 11 not dictate to you how optimum utilization should be achieved. We can only review the broad priorities and try to achieve a productive balance in the overall investment of public dollars. We must rely upon your good judgement to use your al locations to best advantage. We appeal to you for your conscientious cooperation. On Saturday, February 12, at the Toronto Airport Hilton Hotel, the First Annual Reunion of Lakehead University Alumni from Toronto took place. Appeals Deadline The Office of the Dean of Students announces that the deadline date for reviews (appeals) of 1971-72 Ontario Student Awards Program appl ications is March 15, 1972.

The range of activities is impressive and reflects the strong trend towards the application of geographic techniques and knowledge to current societal and ecosystemic problems. Symposia are being held on cultural discord in the modern world, the role of the city in the modernization of developing countries, and the problems of slow growth of stagnant areas within developed countries. Commissions meet to examine such areas as geographical data sensing and processing, high altitude geoecology, geomorphological survey and mapping, coastal and periglacial geomorphology, population geography, the regional aspects of economic development, medical geography, transport geography and agricultural typology, A large number of field excursions are now in the process of being finalized, offering a unique opportunity to cross and recross this land with specific study tasks. One trip carries delegates into the Arctic islands, another to the coast of Newfoundland. with every region between also represented. One excursion is planned to act as the tie between these others, a Trans Canada Excursion starting in two sections in Montreal on August 17th and 19th and arriving in Vancouver on September 1st and 3rd. At Lakehead, Dr, Phillips is coordinator of the arrangements for the journey between Marathon and Kenora. Each section will be of 90 persons in two coaches interconnected by radio and equipped with a variety of audio-visual devices. The party will stay overnight at Terrace Bay, visit the Kimberly-Clarke mill and continue to Thunder Bay where they will stay in Residence. Supper will be held at the Centennial Park Bushcamp and the following morning the party will tour the city and lunch at Kakabeka before pressing on to Kenora. A tourguide has already been written, and there is in preparation a large volume of material for in-bus commentary and question-times. One of the salient features wilt be the mixed nationalities of the parties, account having to be taken of special diets. as well as the more usual provision of facilities for postage, laundry and possible ill health. The Geography Department wi II be busy with these tasks, but at present a committee including several local high-school teachers is just commencing the detailed final planning. In August. Northwestern Ontariowill be on show to180professional geographers. What they see and do, and the impressions they gain, might affect their teaching of the geography of Canada in many countries for years to come. In August 1972, Canada hosts the 22nd International Geographical Congress in Montreal and concurrently with it the 6th International Cartographic Association Conference. At the last I.G.U. Congress in New Delhi, India in 1968, Canada won the honour of hosting the Un ion in 1972 by a small majority over the Soviet Union, and hence has been very busy for several years with the details of preparation.
