This year the C.I.D.A. (Canadian In­ ternational Development Agency of the Federal Government) sponsored eight students from under­ developed countries; three from Pakistan, four from Thailand and one from Nigeria. Seven stu­ dents have already arrived and have become full members of the Lakehead University community. Dr. K. J. Charles, Chairman of the Lakehead University Economics Department said "This is the only university in Canada where a comparable program exists, and that this academic venture and act of international technical assistance sheds lustre both on Lakehead Univerttity and on the City of Thunder Bay." Campus Notes □ Field studies presently being conducted by sev­ eral members of the Biology Department are supply­ ing new and important information on the ecology of the plants of Thunder Bay District. Some of the research on endemic food plants are of an applied nature and indeed economically important. Dr. Paul Barclay, who is a plant ecologist and microclima­ tologist is investigating physical and biological en­ vironmental aspects of blueberries and wild rice with a view to evaluate known methods of manage­ ment practices. The blueberry study was originally developed in the Nakina area several years ago and is a continuing program supported by a grant from the Department of Indian Affairs. The wild rice pro­ gram is also one of long duration which began with a survey of the environment of wild rice on Sibley Peninsula. An effort is now being made to relate wild rice to temperature factors as well as pH and conductivity ions. To facilitate the program, Dr. Tamblyn has permitted the construction of a small rice paddy on Lakehead University campus. During the past summer Dr. Barclay has also initiated a study on the effects of urban pollution on epiphytes of our region. □CUGO Mr. Monaghan, Dean Ryan, Dr. Charles and Mrs. S. Yupho . A formal reception was held for the international students on Wednesday, October 7, 1970 at 6:00 p.m. in the Nor-Shor Motor Hotel to officially welcome them to the University. Mr. Monaghan, Acting Director of the Training Division of the Canadian International Development Agency in Ottawa came especially to attend this function. Mr. Monaghan spoke to the gathering of Students, Deans, The Mayor, University Officials, and Press, about C.I.D.A. and its relationship with Dr. Charles and Lakehead University. He commended Dr. Charles and the Dean of Arts in their active roles in setting up the course. Upon completion of their year, the students will return to their home coun­ tries and work with their government as consultants on development p:i:ojects. Education OW. Pitman and L. Dennis spoke to a full house on Wednesday, October 7, at the Faculty of Education Theatre on many aspects of education and change. Mr. Pitman is an M.P.P. from Peterborough, and was defeated in his bid for the Ontario N.D.P. Leadership last weekend in Toronto. Mr. Pitman, himself a teacher, stressed the importance of dedication, and professionalism. When asked about his opinion on continuing the separate schools to Grade 12 and 13, he said "Why not?, They (the Catholics) have as much right to the kind of educa­ tion they want, as we do to what we desire." The morning session ran overtime due to the active involvement by many students. In the afternoon period, Mr. Dennis, co­ author of "Living and Leaming" talked of the great "commitment" we all have to make to institute meaningful change in education. Mr. Dennis, also urged "The money for education has to be obtained from some other source than the taxpayers. We must find alternatives, its just costing too much money and we should not expect the people to pay the whole shot." Chairman W. J. Hanley announces that Mrs. Jean McComb has been appointed - search Assistant to the Commission. Her o e is ocated atUC1003E and her telephone extensio 1s 591.. Professor Hanley indicated that thre s 1Ss1ons have been received by the Commission thus far, and five others have been promised. Nevertheless, the response to date has not been as encouraging as expected. "If people have opinions and ideas about how this institution should be governed, then now is the time to speak up about them". Open hearings of briefs and opinions are ex­ pected to begin within a few weeks. d □Two professors in the Faculty of Education have recently had student text books published. Mr. J. D. Frame has had a book published by Scholastic-Tab Publications entitled "Three Poems by Browning", and Mr. J. D. Bates has had a book• let published by Ryerson Science in Action entitled "Studies for Woodlands", for elementary school pupils. □ Dr. Tamblyn is pleased to announce the promo­ tion of Dr. E. Eager, Department of Political Sci­ ence, to Full Professor. □ Four members of the Biology Department (Barclay, Graham, Northcott, and Ryder) and a number of biology students attended the "interna­ tion summit meeting on the destruction .of wilder­ ness environment" at Quetico Provincial Park, Saturday, October 3. The meeting was organized by the Algonquin Wildlands League and attracted representatives from major conservation groups in Canada and the United States as well as a num­ ber of biologists from other Ontario Universities. Two of the lumber companies who hold cutting rights inside the park participated, but invitations to Ontario Premier John Robarts and the senior government officials most concerned were declined. A resolution was prepared at the meeting and will be presented to the Ontario Government. The motion protested licence trading betwei:n timber companies in the park and requested the government to reclassify the park as a class A Wilderness Park (in which no commercial exploitation would be per­ mitted) and in the meantime the government to de­ clare a moratorium on logging operations in the park until the possibilities of reclassification are in­ vestigated. �Weekly Events World Champions at L.U. □The Lakehead University Nor'Westers will play host to the K. K. Rabotnicki Basketball Club from Skopje, Yugoslavia . on Wednesday, October 14, 1970 at 8:00 p.m. in the C. J. Saunders Athletic Building.

October 23, 1970 Volume 3, No. 6 Wright Commission □Representatives of the Commission on Post­ Secondary Education in Ontario visited Thunder Bay last week to discuss with members of the Lakehead University and Confederation College communities the points and recommendations contained in the Commission's preliminary draft report. Although the major recommendation of the report - that there be some form of reorganization of the University and College into one institution - was acceptable in principle to the Senate, Board of Gov­ ernors, L.U.F.A. executive, administration and most other elements of the community, many other points, explicit and implicit, were unacceptable. The meetings on Thursday, October 15th, clarified several points and removed the apparent threat to the University's status. In a letter to Dr. D. T. Wright, Chairman of the Commission, President W. G. Tamblyn summarized the results of Thursday's discussions as follows: 1. The current undergraduate and graduate program offerings of Lakehead University would in no way be adversely affected by the proposed reorganization of the two institutions. New graduate programs should however be designed to bear special relation to region and its need. 2. The essential place of research activity is guaranteed, although in the future applied research and research bearing special relation to the region should be emphasized. This emphasis is reflective of provincial and national trends and policies. 3. In any reorganization of Lakehead University and Confederation College, the University, with all its traditional rights and privileges, would be main­ tained. 4. The Commission will rewrite its report, making every effort to correct misleading or incorrect dataand statements. 5. In its rewritten report the Commission will avoid specifying the details of any suggested re­ organization, but rather will make general rec­ ommendations as to the procedure the two institu­ tions might follow to achieve such reorganization. The specifics of any reorganization will be deter­ mined by representatives of the institutions con­ cerned. 6. In recognition of the needs and requirements of Northwestern Ontario, the Commission's report will recommend that financial funding over and above formula grants be provided for special projects. 7. Prior to the visit to Thunder Bay by the Com­ mission in early December of this year, copies of the revised report will be circulated to mem­ bers of the University community. This revised report will be circulated as soon as possible in order to minimize the anxiety by all members of the community that insufficient time was provided The Commission indicated that it would be visiting Thunder Bay on December 3, 1970, to hold open hearings, at which time members of the University community will be able to discuss the revised draft report as well as any other items of interest relative to post-secondary education in Ontario. Campus Notes □ Mrs. Liny Lyss, Associate Professor, School of Nursing was invited to attend the annual conference on Personal Growth and Group Achievement spon­ sored by the Registered Nurses Association of' Ontario from September 25th to October 1st, 1970. Mrs. Lyss, whose special area of interest is group dynamics, participated in this conference at Honey Harbour, Ontario, as a trainer. □ Under the sponsorship of the Purchasing Manage­ ment Association of Canada, a four-day seminar entitled ''The Control of Inventories is being given at Lakehead University October 23-24 and November 6-7. This in-depth study has aroused considerable interest, and both senior and middle management will attend, participants coming from as far afield asWawa. The P.M.AC. has invited Professor Walter Crowe of the School of Business Administration at this University to present the seminar. He is at present active in consultancy work in Inventory Control both locally and in Toronto, and was the first recipient,. in this University, of a Government of Ontario Department of Health Award for research into hospital supply problems. □Dr. R. G. Rosehart of the School of Engineering attended the 20th Annual Canadian Society of Chem­ ical Engineers Conference in Sarnia, October 19 21, and contributed to the proceedings by presenta­ tion of a technical paper. Dr. Rosehart has recently joined Lakehead Univer­ sity from the University of Waterloo where he com­ pleted his Ph.D. in the field of Chemical Engineer­ ing. His research interests are environmental prob­ lems and areas of engineering of interest to local industries including instrumentation development, and flow and heat transfer involving various pulp and paper operations. One of the most interesting topics at the Samia Conference was that of Mercury Pollution and unfortunately the fish of Thunder Bay were included in one presentation. DA representative of the clergy will be on campus each weekday, Monday to Friday, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Their headquarters will be U.C. room 1011 but primarily they will be in the main cafeteria. Should you wish an appointment you can make same with the A.M.S. secretary. □Dean Ross, Professor A. Bruley and Dr. Walter Cook recently received $9,500 as a contribution to their work on the composition and combustion prop­ erties of "black liquor" from Kraft Paper Mills. The Research Grant was awarded by the Department of Energy and Resources Management of Ontario. □Mrs. Susan de Haas has been appointed Sessional Lecturer in the Department of Languages. �for llrar, Use 0., Successful Arts Seminars □Lakehead University certainly is not slow in taking the initiative and in exploring aspects of education neglected in most universities. Twice in the past week the university has broken with precedent. In most institutions of higher learning today the emphasis is on anything but teaching yet the Faculty of Arts at Lakehead University has just completed a seminar for its professors on the Improvement of our University Teaching, given by W. Trimble. Mr. Trimble, author of "Understanding the Canadian Economy" was formerly Professor at the University of Toronto, and is now Dean of Professional Development at Humber College. In these days of increased costs, it is more important than ever that university professors become highly efficient in all aspects of teaching so as to make optimum use of the :finances invested in higher education in this province and, to make the most effective use of students' time. Moreover, most universities wish to assess and reward a teacher for his skill in teaching, but assessment of this ability is a most delicate matter. It is far simpler to assess the professor in areas such as research and administration and many university professors have, in the past, been rewarded and promoted almost solely on such criteria. This practice hardly encouraged the development of efficient teaching methods in our universities. The purpose of the seminar was to extend effective teaching techniques, glean new ideas, see different solutions to the same problems, facilitate the cooperative planning of instructional programs, share 'know-how' in building the best educational environment and learning experience for the student. In short to make Lakehead University a better learning experience for students and faculty. At the conclusion of the seminar, Dean Ryan announced that an anonymous donor has given money for a Faculty of Arts Award to be awarded annually, "For recognition of singular accomplishment in leading students to knowledge and understanding, and of dedication and intellectual integrity representative of the highest ideals of the profession. To an individual who has taught at least one course during the academic year." The award is to consist of a framed citation and $100. The University Faculty of Arts has also completed a seminar for students on "How To Do Well At University." It was realized that, contrary to opinion students who fail at university (50% of those entering according to a recent report) do not fail because of lack of talent or intelligence; they fail simply because they do not know how to apply themselves or how to study. Thus, the Seminar had according to Dean Ryan, two major objectives: 1. To motivate the student and give him assistance on how to motivate himself. 2. To introduce him to the study skills: reading, listening, scheduling, taking of examinations, using the library and writing essays and papers. to 10 p.m. to October 30. This exhibition is being circulated by the Art Gallery of Ontario for the National Film Board of Canada. It is called the "Animated Film" and consists of drawings, photostats, 16 mm prints, and slides. "The exhibition is presented for circulation in Ontario by the Extension Department of the Art Gallery of Ontario as a tribute to· the Canadian Film Animators who have won international acclaim through their artistry, and to Norman McLaren whose contribution to the animated film is inestimable. The unique and comprehensive survey consists of story-boards, original drawings, photographs and descriptive texts selected and arranged to show the process of animation and the variety of techniques used." This is the first showing of this exhibition in the province after its successful premiere in Toronto. The exhibition was arranged to be on LU's campus by the Aesthetics Society and was gratefully sponsored by the Faculty of Arts and Dean Ryan.

M. Fleming, Chairman, Board ·of. 'Governors, Lakehead Uni­ versity: "We note with interest your - editorial headed "Force the Marriage", contained in the October 20th issue of your newspaper. This editorial is so erroneous in content and misleading in purpose that on behalf of the Board· of Governors of Lake­ head University, I am forced to write this letter. In the - first place it ' shows a complete lack of understanding on the part - of the Toronto press and generally the people of Southern Ontario towards the problems...of Northern and Northwestern Ont­ ario. - To those of us who have lived most of our lives in these regions it is extremely exasperating to have people from Toronto spend one or two days in this area and suddenly become "experts" rela­ tive to our problems. This has been the case with both your own reporter and with the committee to which you refer. the region by sending out faculty members to at least twelve communities and approximately 400 students are enrolled in these courses. Therefore, the people in the region are not being overlooked and, in ,fact, no other University in the Province covers - such a huge region. Your statement that "the report is a chronicle of mismanagement and waste" is purely your interpretation and one which �o one else who was either involved in its 'preparation or . wh9 has read it would accept. The • Committee indicated on its recent visit that they were concerned with what might become exces­ sive .costs in post-secondary education in the future, given the potential enrolment that they predicted' for the region. 'There was no mention in the report· of either "mismanagement" or "waste" of tax dollars. To use an example of waste,. the fact that "each school has its own library, its own computer system, its own television production fac­ ilities" shows a complete ignorance of the na­ ture and locations - -of the two institutions. The :purpose, the function an(j the need of each of the above examples is entirely different for a University and for a College of Applied Arts and Te�hnology. If the libraries, as an example, contain entirely different types of information for differept purposes, is it a waste to have one in each institution? Does not every University and College in Ontario have its own library? Even so there is co-operation and discussion be­ tween the departments involved to assure as • much compatibility and coordination as is pos­ sible. You finally state that "the representatives of the institutions will undoubtedly balk at the Commit• tee's proposal". Lakehead University has been on re.cord for four years as favouring a single institu­ tion of post-secondary education in Northwestern Ontario. In our submission to the Committee, made in • April of this year, we suggested some form of unification. In our response to the report in ques­ tion, we again stated that we are not opposed to the principle of unification recommended in the report. In your editorial you state "They offer virtu�ly the same diploma courses in four areas." This is not true. Of ninety-six programs offered at the University and twenty-six programs offered at Confederation College there is only a semblance of similarity in one program. In the six Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology in the · Toronto region, I am sure that most of the programs are similar, a1;1 "'ell they might be, but you do not criticize these institutions. In the report referred to there was no mention of duplication of courses. Your references to "Apart from • the millions wasted on manpower and machinery, he found that Northern Ontario, its people and its prob­ lems, were being overlooked" are so vague that it is difficult to answer such ridiculous charges. It should be pointed out, however, that the :financ­ ing of Lakehead University, • both capital and operating, is based on the number of students enrolled and is the same for every University in the Province. Therefore, it is impossible to provide more than the formula allows for our University students and thereby "waste" millions. It should also be pointed out that Lakehead Univer­ sity provides extension programs for the people in Therefore we cannot understand why the Globe and Maii would write such an editorial, so damag­ ing to this institution, without any knowledge of the true facts of the situation. It can only lead us to believe that there is some other motive involved that is not • related to the educational needs of the people of Northwestern Ontario. Camp11s Notes □Mr. Donald , E.

FREE with Rick Masten, touring folk artist, from 12:30to 2:30p.m. Capital Freeze □Plans to proceed with major capital projects at Lakehead University were approved by the. Board of Governors at a meeting last Tuesday. However, further action was curtailed almost immediately when the Deputy Minister of the Department of University Affairs, Dr. E. E. Stewart, informed the University that the Minister has reached a decision to curtail such expenditure of moneys on the programme at this time. Dr. Stewart stated further that the Minister was acting on the recommendation of Dr. D. T. Wright, Chairman of the Commission on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario. Included in the capital projects affected are the $550,000. athletic extension and the $1,100,000. library extension. The Minister has agreed to meet with President W. G. Tamblyn and a delegation from the Board of Governors on Monday, November 2nd, to discuss the matter of the expansion further. At that time, President Tamblyn will again stress that their capital projects are urgently required to meet the needs of existing degree programmes at the University. "It is difficult to comprehend the motives behind the Department's decision when the areas to be served by this expansion presents absolutely no conflict with the statements of the Wright Commission," Dr. Tamblyn stated. He further pointed out that tenders for the construction involved had already been called but that contract awards cannot be made until the Department reverses its present position. This factor alone will affect the community at large by the lost employment opportunities that would have been created at a very critical time for both skilled tradesmen and construction workers. The restriction placed upon faculty and students is reflected, in the case of the library, by the fact that the present facilities are approximately 600 square feet under the minimum recommended area necessary to provide an adequate service. For the 120 First and Second Year students of the School of Physical and Health Education who lack adequate fac-., ilities, this decision represents a particular threat to the future of their studies. Dr. Tamblyn expressed the hope that the meeting with the Minister will result in the reconsideration of the current decision. -Nor'Westers Soccer Team vs. Michigan Tech.

This Fort, built between 1801 and 1804 was the central depot for western distribu­ tion of Canadian merchandise and the collection of furs trapped by the Indians. Here people from all parts of Europe and other areas as remote as the Phillipines met annually to celebrate with their Indian compatriots the successes of their fur trade. Between the rail lines and box cars in the C.P.R. railyard the hard working crew headed by Nick Van Eden uncovered over 4,000 artifacts, such as bottles, jars, plates and cutlery, tools, portions of guns, remnants of clothing and trade items. These provide a permanent record of the kinds of goods representative of the period. In addition, the foundation of the stone magazine, the old stone storehouse, the great hall and a number of les­ ser buildings were uncovered. This, together with the establishment of the palisade provides information relevant to the actual construction of the original fort. The Minister of Tourism and Information, whose Department funded the excavation, visited the site during the excava­ tion and expressed a strong interest in seeing the post reconstructed. It is the hope of many citizens that a fur trade interpretation centre will be established to mark this nationally important fort. On Wednesday, October 28, Mr. K. C. A. Dawson gave an address entitled "Rediscovering Old Fort William" to an open meeting called by the Thunder Bay Historical Society at the Prince Arthur Hotel. A second crew undertook the excavation of a late fur trade post at Blacksands Provincial Park for the Department of Lands and Forests. The foundations of the post operated by John Fitzback were uncovered and detailed measurements of the buildings associated with the post were recorded. In addition, several hundred period artifacts were recovered. A third party spent a month forty miles west of the Lakehead at a Late Woodland prehistoric site. This site dates from about 1000 A.D. and saw more or less continuous occupation until historic times. Over 7,000 artifacts were recovered. This included a large quantity of ceramics as well as many lithics including knives, projec­ tile points and scraping tools. A burial mound and a number of circular depressions reported to be wild rice thrashing pits were cross sec­ tioned. This project was funded by the National Museum of Man as part of the on-going investi­ gations into prehistoric life in northwestern Ontario. Canada and Trade Economy Dr. K. J. Charles, Chairman of the Department of Economics, addressed the Silver Anniversary Conference of the United Nations Association in Canada, recently held in Toronto on 'The Possible Impact of Increased Third World Trade on Canada'. Referring to the first Development Decade, Dr. Charles pointed out disturbing factors resulting from the first Development Decade including the unchanged economic distance between rich and poor nations; the inequality of income increase within a number of developing countries; an alarm­ ing growth of unemployment and underemployment in the developing economies. He considered it unfortunate that Canada, as other developed countries, had chosen to ignore the recommendations of the Commission on Interna­ tional Development regarding the contributions of 1% of Gross National Product towards foreign aid as well as the graclual reduction of tariffs imposed on imports of manufactured goods from developing countries. Dr. Charles felt a phased expansion of manufac­ tured imports from developing countries could benefit the Canadian economy and the Canadian consumer. The resulting lower retail prices and increased efficiency in affected industry would provide a positive impact on the overall eco­ nomic picture in Canada. Speaking on the cultural benefits of increased trade with developing countries, Dr. Charles pointed out "The developing countries, for all their poverty are rich in culture". He cited the recognition of the Peoples Republic of China as a positive step in Canadian preparation for increased friendly relations with developing countries and centrally planned economies, and strongly urged the elimination from our language those words that contribute to misunderstanding, on the basis that "they do not contribute to clarity of thought, but also. . .they reflect ethno-centricism, ignor­ ance and arrogant contempt for peoples and cul­ tures different from our own." Committee Changes Name At a recent meeting of the Lakehead University Charity Fund Committee, it was decided a change of name was needed to indicate more accurately the breadth of organizations that ought to be considered for its financial support. Of the eighteen member agencies of the Thunder Bay United Appeal, many cannot be called chari­ table in the broadest sense of the word. In order to represent more fully, the concept of "people helping people", it was decided to rename the committee the "University Philanthropy Com­ mittee". It is hoped everyone will appreciate the expanded scope recognized in the new title. The objective of the Committee will remain the same, that is, to solicit funds from the staff and the faculty of Lakehead University for distribution to registered non-profit charitable and service organizations. Last year we donated $3,884.35 to the United Appeal and $919.15 to the Salvation Army. The request for donations for 1970-71 will be going out shortly, and the Committee sincerely hopes everyone will give as generously as their cir­ cumstances permit. Please help those, who des­ perately need a "brighter tomorrow". The Committee is working on the idea of a dinner and dance to be held sometime in Febr­ uary. Details will be announced later.

It was . felt that such a group could exchange the various views from ~11 areas of the University and contribute to a fuller understanding of the overall feelings existing on the Campus and provide . the .means for the objective, communication of the various copcerns related to this subject. It was agreed that the .Faculty representation should include a I>ean, a Department Head, a Full Professor, an Associate Professor and an Assi~tant Professor. This will also ensure Senate representation on the Committee. Upon the approval of this proposal •by the concerned bodies and the subsequent. election of representatives a schedule of meetings will be set up and further information will be available.

L-� 3, A\\(_\.__ \S Nov. 13, 1970 Volume 3, No. 9 L. U. Hosts Speaker Dr. Donald Chant, distinguished Canadian zoolo­ gist will visit Lakehead University on Friday, November 20th as the gue�t of the Special Events Committee and first speaker in a public lecture series on the theme of "Unstable Environment." Dr. Chant will spend the day as special guest of the Biology Department before giving a public lecture entitled "Ecology, Technology, and the Environmental Problem", an examination of the opposition of interests that is the 'essence of pre­ sent concerns over environmental abuse. Dr. Chant was born in Toronto, an undergraduate of U.B.C., and received his Ph.D. in Zoology from the University of London, England ·in 1956. From 1956 to 1960, Dr. Chant was a section head in the Entomology Research Institute, Canada Department of Agriculture, Belleville, Ontario, apd from 1960 to 1964, Director, Research Laboratory, Canada Department of Agriculture, Vineland, Ontario. In 1964, he moved to the University of California, where he was Chairman of the Department of Biological Control. In 1967, he returned to Canada as Chairman of the Department of Zoology, Uni­ versity of Toronto, his present position. Dr. Chant is well known as researcher, consultant, and author. His professional research interests for the last 20 years have included the development of effective and safe alternatives .to the use of chemical pesticides in the fields of agriculture and forestry. A present member of the FAO Com­ mittee on Integrated Pest Control and past mem­ ber of many Canadian and U.S. advisory commit­ tees, Dr. Chant is now President of a new con­ sulting company called Ecosystems Ltd., Vice� President of Ecological Research Group Ltd., Chairman, Board of Advisers, Pollution Probe at the University of Toronto; Consultant with Systems Research Group to advise Mr. J. J. Greene on environmental quality management systems: Vice-Chairman, Ecological and Envir­ onmental Task Force, Mid-Canada Development Foundation, and Consultant, University of Alaska, Land Planning and Resource Development Policy. As an author Dr. Chant is known for a large num-_ her of scientific publications in his research fields, and many semi-popular publications, in­ cluding widely read articles in the Globe and Mail. With R. 0. Brinkhurst, Dr. Chant is co-author of a book, still in press, entitled "Book on Ethics of Pollution" (Macmillan), and is a member of a subcommittee of the Mid-Canada Foundation res­ ponsible for the authorship of an article entitled "The Global living system and Mid Canada" due to appear in the current issue of The Lakehead University Review. The public lecture will be held at 7:30 p.m. in the University Centre Theatre on Friday, Nov­ ember 20th, with a question period and informal coffee reception following. All with an interest in the present and future of mid Canada are wel­ come. Senate Meeting At a meeting on Wednesday, Senate received a memorandum from President W. G. Tamblyn re­ garding the meetings held with the Department of University Affairs in Toronto. Reference was made to the capital projects which are presently frozen by the Department and discussions pertain­ ing to them. The Senate agreed, on the recommen- dation of the Senate Academic Planning Commit­ tee, to include the following in its submission to the Committee on University Affairs; third and fourth years of the Forestry degree programs to com­ mence in September, 1971; the proposed Engin­ eering degree program to commence in September of 1971 or 1972: that the degree program in Library Technology (B.L.T,) be presented and supported as a program in the planning stage: that the proposed Liberal Science program commence in September 1971. These recommendations were approved in principle with detailed study to take place at a later date. White Paper Critic Mr. John F. Bulloch, a 36-year-old Toronto teacher and part-time executive is the catalyst in a nation-wide movement to oppose the White Paper on taxation. His activities were reported in the June 20th cover story of Weekend Magazine. Mr. Bulloch's own career, as an employee in his father's clothing store, as an engineer, a sales­ man, a , business manager, a teacher of business and finance, and a husband and father, has taken him into a variety of taxation situations. He recently has been an instructor of business man­ agement and finance at Ryerson Polytechnical Institute and also acted as Director and Vice - Pres­ ident of John Bulloch Limited. Reacting to the White Paper he wrote a stinging letter to Finance Minister Benson and published an ad in • the Globe and Mail, publicly expressing his anger. Within two days he received many calls from businessmen which resulted in the formation of The Canadian Council For Fair Taxation with Mr. Bulloch named as General Secretary and Dir­ ector. He took a one-year leave of absence from his teach­ ing position, and reduced his involvement in the family business in order to devote his time to Council activities. "I don't feel the commitments I have made are less than those of thousands of others in this country, though. In their own ways, they are working just as hard soliciting support, organizing opposition and preparing briefs", he said. Lakehead University Business Club will have the pleasure of having Mr. John Bulloch here, to speak on White Paper Taxation. The time and place is Thursday, November 19 at 10:00 a.m. in Room UC2011. (The Upper Agora Theatre). Everyone is welcome to hear Mr. Bulloch and his views. Symphony Tickets Here Tickets for the Lakehead Symphony concerts are now available on the L.U. Campus. Order forms and tickets can be obtained from the office of the Dean of Arts. Prices for subscriptions for the four remaining concerts are $10.00 for adults; $6.50 for students and $21.00 for families. Gift subscriptions for the 'Mini Series' of three con­ certs are available for Christmas and are priced at $7.50 for adults; $5.00 for students and $16.00 for families. The high calibre of the Lakehead Symphony Orchestra presentations is recognized throughout the Province. Your support will prove to be an investment in your own personal enrich­ ment as well as a contribution towards community advancement. �for tn, Use Oly Information Appointment A new face and a new location mark a new era in Information Services at Lakehead University. Mrs. Pamela Duke has now assumed the position of Information and Publications Officer in Room UC1003. Born in Winnipeg, Mrs. Duke worked in radio and television as a writer-producer in that city and other Western centres. Upon moving to Toronto, she was employed by Scarborough College and later moved to the Information Branch of the Department of Correctional Service for the Province of Ontario. Recently arrived from Brandon, Manitoba, where she worked as Information Officer and Research Consultant for the Mayor's Office, Mrs. Duke was appointed to her present position on October 26, 1970. Recent considerations of the role of the Information Office by the University resulted in the decision that renewed emphasis be placed on the coordination of publications and other promotional materials, as well as specific responsibilities such as L.U. Week, press releases, and media relations. Mrs. Duke stated that she hopes to establish a close relationship with all facets of the University in order that the Information Office may offer a comprehensive service in the matters of communication of administrative policy, reports on research and publications, as well as events, both within the Campus confines and to the community.

U.A. Underground Flower Power The flowers that bloom in the Spring in our North­ ern spheres are already formed and lying under the ground. This significant factor was discovered this past summer by Professor D. R. Lindsay of the Department of Biology. In relation to his many years of study of taxonomy and ecology of plants in boreal regions, Professor Lindsay conducted research on the life history and underground systems of five common northern forest plants. The preliminary results of these investigations have indicated that unusual processes of reproduc­ tion characterize plants of cold climates and have illustrated a number of areas which will require further research for a comprehensive understand­ ing of the full nature of these processes. One of the notable findings resulting from Profes­ sor Linday's research is that which showed that in some of the examined species, the flowering buds for the next year are already formed on the under­ ground parts of the plant. At this time the factors responsible for floral initiation, as well as the concurrent physiological changes which take place in the plant during both formation and emergence are still unknown. Professor Lindsay pointed out that extensive studies are still necessary in this relatively untouched field and that the whole area requires much further work. Other interesting findings include observations that the percentage of flowering taking place in above ground shoots is relatively small, yet the extensive vegetative reproduction that takes place through the under­ ground system allows survival for indefinite per­ iods of time. In some cases, the dry weight of the underground section of the plant is one to three times greater than the dry weight of the above ground sections, giving them an iceberg-like characteristic. This allows such plants to survive many environmental hazards including fire, flood and changes in tem­ perature, and indeed, often results in more pro­ fuse blooming after a major environmental altera­ tion. All the plants under study were collected within the Thunder Bay area and some were found on the University grounds. Observation and study of the cycles of these plants will continue in order to further reinforce the present findings and to collect more data. Professor Lindsay hopes to see additional work done in the ecological appli­ cation of these findings, as well as on flower form­ ation and physiology. Attention Playwrights A competition to promote original playwrighting in Canada is being sponsored by the Drama Depart­ ment at the University of Saskatchewan, Regina Campus in conjunction with the Saskatchewan reg­ ion of the Dominion Drama Festival. There will be an award of $500 to a Canadian citi­ zen for a full-length original, unperformed and un­ published play written in English. If possible, the play will be produced during the 1971 fall seaeon and it is hoped the playwright can be present for rehearsals and the production. Closing date for the competition is March 31, 1971 and the winner will be notified by May 15. Judges will be faculty members in the Drama Department­ John Chamberlain, William Dixon, Anne Hard­ castle, Gabriel Prendergast, Eric Salmon and Michael Scholar. Playwrights should send their scripts to Playwright­ ing Award, c/o William Dixon, Drama Department, University of Saskatchewan, Regina Campus. ,.,,, The Committee on University Affairs will meet with officials of Lakehead University on Tues­ day,' November 24th at 9:30 a.m. In a memo rec­ ently. distributed the time was reported as 1:15 p.m:, and recipients are asked to please make note of the correct time.

Due to the success of the presentation of Arthur Miller's "View from the Bridge", by the Confederation College Players, three additional performances have been scheduled for November 27th, 28th and 29th. Those wishing to attend any of these performances can otain further information and tickets from the "Matchbox" in the University Mall or from Confederation College. You are reminded that the seating area is limited and it would be wise to obtain tickets as soon as possible. The format involved the introduction by an instructor, a specialist in French-Canadian literature, to one of the three required texts, and his review of its place in Canadian literature in general. This was followed by an informal discussion by other instructors, representing the seven sections of the course, on the different aspects of the novel. The basic premise underlying this type of presentation lay in two areas: (a) that the student would become more involved through having the opportunity to listen to a number of points of view presented by varying individuals, and (b) the student would find the discussions a valuable exercise in the understanding of spoken French. Comments from the students have indicated that the programme accomplished these ends most successfully. Other programs now underway include a two-part lecture on French-Canadian and English-Canadian literature and discussions of the two remaining required texts. It is hoped that some programmes on various aspects of grammar might be done for use by students as reference. Chemical Institute At LU Dr. L. W. Shemilt, President of .the 10,000 member Chemical Institute of Canada and Dean of.Engineering at McMaster University will address a meeting of the Lakehead and District Section of the Institute on Monday, November 23 at 8:00 p.m. in R-oom MB1001. His topic will be "Credibility and Chemistry" dealing with the indi-rect and direct attacks on the credibility of the chemist and the chemical engineer, with particular reference to pollution. Dr. Shemilt will advance proposals for closing the credibility gap that has developed and speak to the implications of these proposals for the Chemical Institute of Canada. The presentation of the Allied Chemical Scholarship will be made by Mr. E. Burk, the local Plant Supervisor to Mr. G. D. Martin, a Fourth Year Honours Student in the Department of Chemistry.

V en1... • v·d· The Committee on University Affairs today visited Lakehead University. It was told in a brief from the University that the present freeze on capital projects would seriously af­ fect the future of the University. The Commit­ tee, which meets with University officials regu­ larly, is responsible for recommending to the Minister of University Affairs the extent • to which projects and new programs should be sup­ ported. Their recommendations are based in large part upon the presentations made by the Uni­ versity. The brief from Lakehead University point­ ed out that recent developments have led to a sit­ uation that has affected the reputation of the Insti­ tution locally and throughout the Province, and could be significant in the University's efforts to attract qualified faculty and s{udents in the future. Speaking at the opening of the meeting, Dr. Tamblyn stated that he found some confusion in defining the roles of the Wright Commission, and the Commit­ tee on University Affairs respectively, especially in light of the special consideration being given to post-secondary education in the Thunder Bay area by the Wright Commission. The Committee replied that the Wright Commission was charged with the duties of investigating both university structure and the community college sys­ tem in Ontario, and to recommend measures of coordination in these two areas of post-secondary ed­ ucation and the overall structure under which these systems would relate to the Provincial Gov­ ernment. No further definition of specific actions was forwarded, but it was apparent that as yet, the unresolved recommendations of the Wright Com­ mission study of post-secondary education in Thun­ d!:!r Bay were involved in the discussions and con­ sideration of the Committee. Among specific areas of consideration presented in the brief are the establishment of a Graduate Dip­ loma program in Economic Development, a Liberal Science program and a proposed program in Environ­ mental and Pollution Science. An extension of the School of Forestry's degree program from two to four years was recommended. It was pointed out that available institutional and regional resources support the extension and that a serious possibility existed that sufficient places for students finishing second year might not be available. The School of Engineering recommended an extension of its de­ gree program from the present two years to the full four years. It was pointed out that the third year has been especially designed to accept students from Technology Diploma programs. Also in the brief was a proposed Bachelor of Library Technology pro­ gram for consideration at a later date. The Univer­ sity requested a non-formula grant for necessary alterations and new equipment in the Faculty of Ed­ ucation building. Laboratory facilities, library fac­ ilities, staff office space and art education facili­ ties are all necessary to meet the demand of the course development. In the brief, the University underlined the fact that extra-formula grants are considered necessary by the Department of University Affairs for 'emer­ ging universities'. It pointed out that the definition of emergence is usually related to size, and that while this was a principle factor, other determin­ ing factors that should be considered were loca- tion, economic growth, cultural opportunities anct the burden on resources created by the distance from the economic and population centre of the pro­ vince. It was pointed out that the additional costs of supplies and equipment imposed by freight charges, the high cost of travel for faculty and administra­ tion and other unique factors added to overall costs and more than justified the level of extra-formula support the University requested. Dr. Tamblyn, in his opening address also stressed that, because of its geographic location, it was necessary for Lakehead University to offer a full University service with the full range of courses and programs, some of which were specifically required by the needs of Northern Ontario, and which in themselves, might never be economically viable for the University. The Brief drew the Committee's attention to the fact that through Extension programs, Lakehead University makes a special effort to meet one of the needs of Northwestern Ontario, but that because of the iso­ lation of many areas, it is sometimes unable to offer a course that has been requested due to insufficient enrolment to make it economically viable. The Uni­ versity therefore, has requested a special operat­ ing grant for its off-campus program. Wright Draft Arrives The second draft of the Wright Commission's Report on Post-Secondary Education in Thunder Bay ar­ rived at L.U. this week. Copies of the body of the report have been distributed to faculty members and administrative staff. Reports were also. sent to the A.M.S. Copies are available to concerned members of the community and may be obtained from the President's office. A notable factor in the report was the ,eJ�,mination of any recommendation for a direct form of amalgama­ tion between Lakehead University and Confedera­ tion College. The four major proposals in this draft were: 1. The establishment of a joint body represent­ ing both institutions with the authority to coor­ dinate physical planning and development. 2. The coordination of off-campus programs. 3. Suggestions for the joint use of some facili­ ties by students of both institutions. 4. Increased cooperation in other areas of acti­ vity, including programs for the Indian popu­ lation. Further consideration of this report has begun by faculty, students and administration, and represen­ tations will be prepared for the next meeting in Thunder Bay with the members of the Commission. Capital Projects Dr. W. G. Tamblyn was informed by the Deputy Minister of University Affairs on Monday, November 23rd that approval in principle had been given to the following capital projects: the Academic Build­ ing, the extension to the Athletic Building, and the extension to the Power House. The Deputy Minister stated, however, that the extension to the Library Building had not been approved. In order to alle­ viate the projected overcrowded situation, arrange­ ments are now in progress for the acquisition of temporary buildings to supply a limited amount of classroom and office space for the coming aca­ demic year. Plans for the construction of the ap­ proved building and extensions will be continued immediately and every effort will be made to ex­ pidite the necessary action in order to minimize the adverse conditions created by the imposition of the Capital Program freeze. �□Mr. Media Services Centre The Media Services Centre has been established to consolidate the audio-visual services, television services and graphic design services in order to provide a comprehensive means of assistance to the faculty. Under the direction of Mr. E. Misanchuk, Media Services can now offer professional consultation regarding the use and application of the instructional media including the provision of audiovisual and television equipment for classroom use. Full assistance and facilities are available to those considering the possibilities of producing full-length or complementary video tapes for usage in specific courses and for the production of conceptual or 'pilot' video-tapes for assessment of value. Arrangements can be made for both studio and 'location' filming or taping.

A.\ k L\S L&kehead University Dec. 4, 1970 Volume 3, No. 12 Arctic Is Speaker's Topic The second speaker in the Public Lecture Series "The Unstable Environment", Dr. Robert Curry, will be here on Thursday, December 10th, as guest of the Special Events Committee. Dr. Curry, of the University of Montana, Missoula, will be giving a talk entitled "Climatic implications of Arctic oil development on the residents of northern North America" at 7:30 p.m. in the University Centre Theatre, and there will be a question period and informal coffee reception following. As an "environmental geologist", Dr. Curry has a varied background and range of interests. He obtained his Ph.D. from Berkeley, California, in Geomorphology, an M.S. in Plant Ecology from Colorado. He has taught geology at the University of Alaska, geography at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and is now at Montana beginning an environmental studies graduate program. Dr. Curry's geographic and geologic background and his personal energy have resulted in his involvement with many aspects of environmental problems. He is environmental advisor to the U.S. Senate; to the U.S. Department of the Interior and to several environmental law groups. He is currently advising on problems of ocean waste disposal, a national fuels policy, the nationalization of railroads for solid waste haulage, the oil spill potential in the Arctic, the Alaskan pipeline, various American forest practices and oil development in the Santa Barbara channel. He is also a strong advocate of the recycling of paper, and overstamps his mail with the message 'Pulp Mills are Destroying our Environment', a note of significance for those considering the economic development of our own area of North America. His current research is in the field of climatic change, especially the recent trends which have strong implications on the future in terms of minor changes, both natural and Man engendered, which could have very violent effects on national economies. His talk will reflect a combination of his varied interests and should give exposure to one aspect of environmental instability that is largely unrecognized in the present outcry against more visible pollution and ecological destruction. It is hoped that Dr. Curry's arrival from Montana will be in time for his informal participation in a discussion of climatic change with students and faculty of the geography, geology, biology and forestry departments. All who have an interest in the present and future of mid-Canada and the North are welcome to this public lecture.

Belanger, Dean of Faculty of Philosophy, University of Montreal and Dr. A. B. Kristofferson, Professor of Psychology, McMaster University members of the National Research Council of Canada, Psychology Grants Selection Committee, visited the Department of Psychology on November 20, 1970. The visit was organized by Dr. K. Paul Satinder. The NRC members spent their day visiting the Psychology laboratories and talking to the faculty members of the Department of Psychology. A luncheon meeting was attended by Psychology Faculty members and Dean Ryan. Both members were impressed by the various aspects of the department. At one point Dr. Belanger, who was Chairman of the Psychology Department, University of Montreal before he became Dean of the Faculty, remarked that this was the first animal laboratory he has seen which is so well kept. At the conclusion of the visit both of the visitors remarked that they were surprised with the rate of the development of the Department of Psychology during the last two years. They further remarked that this was one of their most fruitful days they have spent and commented the visit was well organized and hopefully will be very fruitful both to the Department of Psychology and Psychology Grant Selection Committee of the National Research Council of Canada. Merry Christmas In A New Way The Lakehead University Christmas Cards, now available from the University Bookstore are a unique and exciting representation of the spirit of LU. These cards are not only a beautiful conveyance of greetings for the holiday season, but bring to • the recipient an opportunity to use the card in a number of interesting ways. The card arrives in a light blue envelope, following the trend to the use of coloured stationery, the size and shape of which immediately proclaims the 'difference' of this Christmas Greeting. From the overall card which provides room for the senders message, the recipient is invited to punch out the central area, which folds and fastens easily to become an extremely attractive tree ornament, table or desk decoration, or a gift box for small articles. The unusual presentation of this greeting stirs the imagination of the receivers and involves them in both assembly and display of the card, and conveys the creative involvement which is basic to the University spirit. Designed by Graphic Designer, Mrs. Helen Keller of the Media Services Department, the Lakehead University Christmas Card has been in production for approximately a month and a half. Many special considerations were involved in both the design and the production of the card in order to ensure the success of the intention to provide a Christmas Card that was as much a pleasure to send as to receive. Special consideration was given to the weight of the cardboard used with respect to mailing cost and durability. Lehto Printers worked closely with the Graphic Design area to provide the step-by-step professional involvement necessary in total production to achieve such high quality. The design of the card includes one area of suitable greeting, one with the University's name, and four areas with actual representations of crystal patterns of snowflakes, researched by the Library staff in the interests of both beauty and realism. The photographs of the snowflake designs had to be treated with utmost c.a re in order to assure a truly distinctive representation. �for Ubrar UH 0.1 The costs of these cards are extremely low as University staff was involved at so many levels of conception and design, and represents only the actual costs of production. The cards are now on sale in the Bookstore for just $1.25 for 12 cards Students and staff are urged to drop in and see these exceptional cards and to consider . their use for extending Christmas greetings to friends and acquaintances. Mrs. Keller has assured us .that, in the research of this particular design, she has come upon others with interesting possibilities, and that these will be developed for future years if the sale of this year's cards prove that a sufficient interest exists. L. U. Review The Lakehead University Review which, in its :first issue this spring displayed a new format and promised a special emphasis on Central Canada Studies, fulfills that promise in its latest edition. Volume 111, No. 2 contains two articles which are concerned with the Mid-Canada Development Foundation. Ivor G. Davies of the Geography Department examines critically "Essays on Mid-Canada", a collection of the papers presented at the first session of the Mid-Canada Development Confer~nce, held at Lakehead University in the summer of 1969. "The Global Living System and MidCanada" is the Report of the Task Force Committee on Ecological and Environmental Factors of the Mid-Canada Development Foundation. •Members of .that committee included Kenneth Dawson of the ','Department of Sociology/Anthropology and Donald A.' Chant, the recent speaker in our public lecture ·series.

Following the visit of the Commission and the presentation of their First Draft Report, the University Senate agreed that it would be valuable for representative committees from both institutions to meet to discuss the further report that had been promised by the Wright Commission. Further consideration by President Bradshaw of Confederation College and President Tamblyn of Lakehead University, resolved that these committees be implemented upon the receipt of the Second Draft Report, and that meetings take place to discuss the viability and possible implementation of the Commission's recommendations with regard to cooperative and coordinated action by both institutions. The membership of the Committee will include five members of the Board of Governors, five members of Faculty (to include one Faculty Dean, one Department Chairman and three other representatives), and five members of the student body to be selected through the A.M.S.

Commission Statement "A Statement of Issues" prepared by the CommISsion on Post-Secondary Education in Ontario have been forwarded to the University. This document includes questions about basic concepts of education and the educational system posed by the Commission. Some of these include "Why do we keep piling one year of schooling after another upon our students? Why is it necessary to assume that 'learning' must take place only when institutionalized? Why should professional associations be allowed to stipulate formal educational requirements instead of administering tests regardless of educational backgrounds? Is there any justification for the 'academic year'? What are the true implications of the universality for post-secondary education?" A few copies of this document are available . from the office of Mr. B. Mason, Executive Assistant to the President. Philanthropy Committee Report The following report was received from the Uni-· versity Philanthropy Committee regarding the 1971 campaign for funds which recently concluded.

Design for Development "Design for Development - Phase 2: Policy Recommendations" is now available for distribution to the residents of Northwestern Ontario. "Design for Development" is a program for regional development in Northwestern Ontario being initiated by the Government of Ontario, currently being prepared by the Regional Development Branch of Treasury and Economics. In the preface, the report points out, that despite many natural advantages which are found in the Northwestern region of Ontario only 3.2 percent of Ontario's seven million people reside in the region, and that at this time, more people are leaving the region than are coming to it. The report credits this situation to the "narrow range of employment opportunities in Northwestern Ontario, compared with southern Ontario and other . fast-growing regions of Canada. It points out that in post-war years especially, the demand for forest and mineral resources contributed to a substantial population increase in the area. Today, however, economic expansion has entered into a highly technological phase. Industry is proving to be more urban and market-oriented than in the past, making it difficult for smaller and more isolated communities to remain in a competitive position in the attraction of new industry. The Report includes chapters on the following: Regional Problems and Potential - Summary; Selection of Centres of Opportunity; Goals and Objectives; General Strategy Alternatives; Recommendations. The study was financed on a shared cost basis under the Federal-Provincial Rural Development Agreement, and acknowledgement is made of the input of material from various sources at Lakehead University.

In the meantime from LU WEEK to every one of you, our Sincere Wishes for a Very, Very Joyous Christmas. ~lumni Society Meets Weekly Events An ex.ecutive meeting of the alumni society of Lakehead University was held last week in the council chambers of the university. The decision was made to continue with the annual award of $600 in scholarships to students at Lakehead University a continuation of the practice of past years of awarding money to a number of deserving students as .an aid in continuing their studies. The names of those to whom the scholarships have been awarded will be released later. A major policy change was made concerning the receipt of correspondence from the alumni society to the graduates of Lakehead. In previous years information was mailed to all graduates but bec;~use of an overwhelming pile-up of returned mruJ. brought about by the lack of correct addresses, correspondence will be sent to only those alumni contributing membership subscription or to those indicating a wish to be on the mailing list. All graduates are urged to make every effort to inform the executive of their correct addresses or those of any graduate whom they think will be interested in receiving information. Membership suscriptions may be sent to the Alumni Lakehead University and a reminder of a couple of the benefits of being a card carrying member: admission to all A.M.S. functions at student rates and admission to all SA.S. functions at student rates. The next general meeting of the alumni will be on Tuesday, January 5th at the University (exact locatitm to be announced lE,tter), all graduates are asked to make every ·- effort to attend and also to inform 'o thers of the meeting.

G. Tamblyn, on behalf of the Board of Governors and the Senate, announced the appointment of Justice Bora Laskin of the Supreme Court of Canada, as Chancellor of Lakehead University. Born in Fort William, Justice Laskin attended Ogden Street Public School and the Fort William Collegiate Institute. He received his Bachelor of Arts from the University of Toronto in 1933, his M.A. in 1935 and his LLB. in 1936. Fulfilling a life-long ambition, he was called to the Bar in 1937 when he also received ·s LL.M. from Harvard University Law School. In 1940, Justice Laskin was appointed Lecturer in Law and Assistant Professor of Law at the Harvard Law School. In 1945 he accepted the post of Lecturer in Law at Osgoode Hall Law School and was awarded a Full Professorship at the University of Toronto in 1949. He gave up teaching in 1965 when he became a Judge on the Ontario Court of Appeal. His appointment to the Supreme Court of Canada was lauded by Time Magazine, and John Turner, Canadian Minister of Justice cited Justice Laskin as "that rare individual who combines in one person the excellence of many." •Justice Laskin's high reputation has been recognize far and wide. His list of honors includes doctorates from Queen's University, University of Edinburgh, Trent University, University of Toronto and the University of New Brunswick. He served as President of the Canadian Association of Law Teachers from 1953 to 1954. Later he was President of the Canadian Association of University Teachers from 1964 to 1965. Appointed a Queen's Counsel in 1956, he became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada in 1964. In the field of education, Justice Laskin served as Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, and is a former member of the Board of Governors of York University. His writings include numerous articles in legal periodicals and books dealing with Land Law and Canadian Constitutional Law. The third edition of his Canadian Law was published in 1966. Justice Bora Laskin's brother, Saul, is Mayor of the City of Thunder Bay. The Board of Governors and the Senate were unamimous in their nomination of Justice Laskin for the Chancellorship of the University. Both bodies have expressed their pleasure and appreciation upon receiving notification of his acceptance of the position. LU, College Committees To Meet A meeting of the Committees representing Lakehead University and Confederation College to discuss the recommendations of the Commission on PostSecondary Education in Ontario with reference to cooperation and coordination between the two institutions, has been set for Tuesday, January 12th, at 7:30 p.m. in the Lakehead University Senate Chamber. Each Committee is comprised of fifteen members representing administration, faculty and students. Membership of the Committees is as follows: LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY: Board of Governors - Mr. J. M. Fleming, Mr. R. J. Flatt, Dr. M. W. Bartley, Mr. J. N. Paterson and PresidentW.G. Tamblyn. Faculty - Dean H. S. Braun, Dr. T. B. Miller, Dr. M. Elizabeth Arthur, Dr. W. Eames and Mr. T. Seuret. Students - Mr. P. Paularinne, Mr. A. Anzew, Mr. P. Kennedy, Mr. R. Gibson and Miss M. Zajac. CONFEDERATION COLLEGE: Administrative - Mr. W. J. Spicer, President, D. A. R. Bradshaw, Dean A. M. Anderson, Mr. S. Agress and Mr. R. L. Moffat. Faculty - Mr. Joel Kramer, Mr. David Morgan, Mr. J. Filipovic, Mr. Carl Rose and Mr. K. Oakleaf. Students - Mr. M. Johnston, Mr. E. Wilson, Mr. G. Walker, Mr. E. Sinnimaki and Mr. W. Cousineau. Alternates - Mr. K. Nichols, Mr. Denis Brearton, Mr. D. Driscoll, Mr. M. Jones and Miss Pat Nichols. At a meeting held December 22nd, the Lakehead University Committee of Fifteen considered a preliminary study which had been carried out, and two proposals which arose as a result of that study. The first proposal suggested that a "Senior Council" be established which would be responsible for new physical facilities and their funding requirements. The composition of such a Council would include a Chairman, probably from outside Thunder Bay, but a person familiar with the full details of capital financing in Ontario institutions of post-secondary education. Other members of the Council would include two representatives from each of the two institutions, perhaps including the Chairmen of the Boards and the Chief Executive Officers. Under such a plan, the existing Boards of Governors of of both the University and the College would con- tinue to operate with their present powers, excepting only that plans for new capital projects would be submitted to the proposed Senior Council for ratification. The Council would review the plans to ensure that maximum benefit for the people of Northwestern Ontario and for both institutions was being derived from the individual entitlements. If no joint utilization of the planned facility were possible, the Council would review the proposal in light of overall priorities and, if acceptable, forward the request to the relevant government department where normal procedures would apply. If joint utilization were possible and desirable, the Council would then examine the proposal to ensure adequacy and suggest necessary alterations. Methods of financing would have to be then worked out by the government departments concerned, those being the Department of University Affairs and the Department of Education. Both institutions would retain the right to directly approach the Minister to whom they are responsible if they felt that a decision concerning a proposed project would imperil their capability to properly fulfil their role in relation to the community. , • The second proposal embodied in the preliminary study entails the establishment of a series of coordinating committees to examine the requirements. facilities and resources of various departments of the two institutions, and to recommend ways and means to realize :financial savings and improve services offered by establishing coordinated program planning and effort. These committees ...,..ii would be comprised of members of both institu- JI tions from areas such as Business Administration,_ Engineering Audio-Visual Aids, Library, Computer, Extension Services and Athletics. Where the recommendations of these coordinating committees would deal with the educational policy of the University, they would be subject to the approval of the Lakehead University Senate. In all other areas however, their recommendations could be implemented by the respective Boards of Governors. The Committee then decided to present the outlined proposal to the Confederation College Committee for discussion at the joint meeting next Tuesday night. �Enrolment Increase Preliminary enrolment reports from Ontario's fourteen provincially assisted universities and colleg~s and from Waterloo Lutheran University indicate that there are 115,672 students enrolled in full tile programs in Ontario, the Honourable William G Davis, Minister of University Affairs, announced t day. The total represents an increase of 12.1% over l~st year's full time enrolment of 103,206. These figures indicate that while actual enrolment totals continue to grow as the college age group increases in numbers, the percentage rate of increase in full time university enrolment has in fact been declining over the past three years. Last year's total figure represented an increase of 14.5% over the 1968-69 enrolment of 90,050, which was in turn an increase of 17.3% over the previous year's total of 76,782. This year the total undergraduate enrolment is 102,286 and the graduate enrolment is 13,386. The number of first year students is 33,352. Of further interest is the fact that, although there are small fluctuations among universities, this year's total differs by only 0.6% from the official projection based on university submissions in November of 1969. Student totals for Lakehead University are as follows: FULL TIME (including graduate students) Supported in full and in part on the formula basis by the Department ofU niversity Affairs 2,656 Supported by specific appropriations of the Department of Education through D. U .A. 286 t Total as of December 1, 1970 2,942 PART TIME (including graduate students) On and off campus student total as of 1,439 December 1, 1970 OVERALL TOTALasofDecemberl, 1970, 4,381 (full and part-time students) Full time enrolment at Lakehead University peaked at just over 3,000 students early in the 1970/71 academic year, but withdrawals and changes in status now bring the figure to 2,942. In some cases, withdrawal files, among others are still considered active, although not included in the figures above, as it has been indicated that the student will be returning in a future academic year. Campus Notes □Dr. Gerardus Vervoort, an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Education, has recently accepted a three-year appointment to the Instruction Committee of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, Washington, D.C. □The car plug-ins on the parking lots are designed to give each car a maximum of 400 watts. This means that if the load exceeds this figure, the circuit breaker automatically shuts that circuit off. With this in mind, we would ask you to use only your automobile block heater when plugged in on campus. Should you elect to use your block heater, battery warmer and interior car heater, you will deactivate the circuit which not only affects your automobile but those parked immediately adjacent to yours. □"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN" The Records Office of the University would appreciate receiving notification of change of address. This applies to local addresses only (Address in Thunder Bay). Please verify that your current local address and telephone n um her is on file with ~~ ,Records Office. Marks Reports will be mailed out to the addresses on file - check now that it is correct. □The University has recently obtained an Amateur Radio Licence under the auspices of Mr. Jim Roberts a first year Applied Science student and Jim Wheeler a Technologist with the Engineering Department.
