Minutes of previous meeting Dean Kitts ) That the minutes of the Fourth regular meeting of Dean Burns ) Senate for the Session 1983-84, having been circulated, be taken as read and adopted. Carried 8113 Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Senate membership Declaration of vacancy As required under section 35 (5) of the University Act, the following vacancy was declared: Dr. R. A. Spencer - Faculty of Applied Science representative Replacements Mr. Bruce McCloy replaces Miss K. K. Brisch, student representative of the Faculty of Education Mr. Mark E. Reder replaces Ms. R. J. Comesotti, student representative of the Faculty of Arts Prizes, Scholarships and Bursaries Mr. McWilliams) That the new awards (listed in Appendix 'A') be Dr. Burridge ) accepted subject to the approval of the Board of Governors and that letters of thanks be sent to the donors. Objections were raised to the words "... critical political economy." in the description of the Francis V. Lumb Scholarship. It was agreed that this matter be referred to the Committee on Student Awards in the hope that a revised description could be submitted in time for the next meeting of Senate. The motion was put and carried. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee Licentiate in Accounting program - change to admission reguirements The committee recommended approval of a proposal by the Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration that students be required to have completed at least three units of university level Mathematics. It was explained in the material circulated that rather than strongly recommending that students complete at least one year of university level Mathematics before beginning their studies, the Faculty requested that this be made a requirement. Dr. Dahlie ) That the proposed change to the admission Dr. Adams ) requirements for the Licentiate in Accounting program be approved. Carried 8114. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee (continued) Faculty of Forestry - statement on supplemental examinations The committee recommended approval of the following statement on Supplemental Examinations: In addition to General Academic Regulations under General Information in this Calendar, the Faculty of Forestry will apply the following guidelines for the granting of supplemental examinations: 1. Supplemental examination privileges will be granted in a course provided: (a) The normal final exam has been written and grade submitted. (b) The grade attained is at least 40%. (c) The overall average for the year including the failed courses is at least 60% 2. Notwithstanding eligibility under I, supplemental examination will not be granted if: (a) The failure is due to a substandard performance in the laboratory part of a course. (b) In Departments outside Forestry, supplementals are not offered. 3. In no case shall supplemental examination privileges be granted in more than 2 courses or more than 4fe units, whichever is the lower. Dr. Dahlie ) That the statement on supplemental examinations Dr. Kozak ) in the Faculty of Forestry be approved. Carried Faculty of Applied Science - documentation deadline The committee recommended approval of the following change to the admissions section of the Faculty of Applied Science's calendar statement on documentation deadline: Change "Applications must be made by May 31" to: "Application for admission must be made not later than May 31. All necessary documents, including official transcripts, must be received by the Regisfrar by June 30 to ensure that the application will be considered. Responsibility for ensuring that the forwarding institution sends the official transcript by June 30 rests with the applicant." Dr. Dahlie ) That the proposal of the Faculty of Applied Dr. Adams ) Science to change the calendar statemenf on documentation deadline be approved. Carried 8115. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee (continued) Limitation of enrolment in First Year The following proposal concerning limitation of enrolment in First Year had been circulated: "Recommendations: 1. That for the 1984-85 Winter Session enrolment of new students in the first year of degree programs be limited to approximately 3,250 students. 2. That the approximately 3,250 students be selected in descending order of academic achievement on fhe relevant subjects of senior secondary school. 3. That the principle of enrolment limitation and the number of new students to be admitted be reviewed annually in the light of resources available to the University. 4. That the Faculties which admit students to first year be requested to provide the Senate Admissions Committee with the maximum number of new first year students that can be accommodated in each first year degree program. These numbers to be made available by February 10, 1984. Background: In 1981-82 there were 3,179 new students enrolled in the first year of degree programs. This number increased by 2.8% to 3,270 in 1982-83. In 1983-84 the number increased by 13.5% to 3,697. At the same time the University's financial resources have been decreasing. It is clear that in 1984-85 the University will be facing a severe shortage of financial resources. The Senate Admissions Committee feels that without adequate funding the University can no longer admit all applicants to first year who meet the minimum entrance requirements and at the same time maintain the quality of education that has been provided in the past. In view of the fact that the unexpected increase in enrolment of new first year students in September 1983 musf be accommodated through to completion of degree programs, it is felt that there must be limits on the major source of intake of new students. By limiting enrolment of new first year students to a level approximating the enrolment in Winter Session 1982-83 it is expected that total enrolment will remain static. The Senate Admissions Committee recognizes that enrolment limitations must be considered for all points of entry (i.e. college and university transfers). However, the number of students entering at points other than first year has remained constant over the past three years and there is no reason to expect any dramatic change in 1984. Nonetheless, if there is no improvement in the University's financial picture consideration will be given to limiting enrolment in higher years. 8116. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee Limitation of enrolment in First Year (continued) "For the information of Senate, in 1969 Senate resolved that the University should have an overall enrolment of 22,000 undergraduate students and 5,500 graduate students. Enrolment in 1983-84 is as follows: Daytime Daytime, Evening & G.I.S. Undergraduate 22,155 24,292 Graduate 4,020 4,025 Total 26,175 28,317 Dr. Dahlie ) That the recommendations of the Senate Dr. Adams ) Admissions Committee concerning limitation of enrolment in First Year be approved. Mrs. Jones queried the rationale for recommending an aggregate limit on enrolment before the Faculties had reported on the numbers of new first—year students that can be accommodated, lt was explained that there are pressure points that have to be considered, such as enrolment in English 100 which requires an aggregate limit. Mr. Kendall and some other members of Senate expressed their concern about selecting students on the basis of their level of achievement in senior secondary school subjects. Mr. Kendall stated that standards in secondary school grading are not equal among school districts and in some cases within the school district and that this would lead to unfair treatment of applicants. He urged Senate to reject the report and request the Senate Admissions Committee to come up with a better way of deciding who should be admitted. Dr. Dahlie acknowledged the difficulties and reminded Senate that the proposed method of selection was no different than what was being practiced at the present time. Dr. Dennison drew Senate's attention to the important implication of the whole question of access to the University which should be taken into consideration. In normal times, he stated, there is an understanding that when universities impose admission limitations, there are other ways that students are able to enter the system through other institutions. In this case other institutions in B.C. are having the same problems and are unable to accommodate all those who may wish to attend. 8117. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee Limitation of enrolment in First Year (continued) who may wish to attend. He expressed his concern that although students who were refused admission to the University may be able to gain admission to a college, they would not necessarily be able to enrol for courses because the colleges register students on a first-come first served basis rather than on the basis of academic standing. He emphasized the question of access as a very important one and that he would like to be assured that the best students would be given the opportunity to enter the system. The matter of students who are repeating courses and occupying limited seats was raised while, at the same time, qualified applicants are not being allowed to enter the University. The question of standards of promotion for students and whether or not students who fail courses be allowed to repeat them was a matter of concern. In response Dr. Dahlie stated that the Senate Admissions Committee had discussed this matter with a view to insisting on very strict application of regulations with respect to promotion and continuation at the University. Miss Dickinson ) That the motion be tabled. Mr. Waugh ) Losf Some members of Senate suggested that an alternative scheme would be to allow all students who meet the minimum qualifications to enter the first year and apply more rigid standards for continuation into the second year. It was felt that this would be a more equitable system than one that does not allow access at all. In rebuttal it was argued that when there is a scarcity of resources we can no longer consider an open policy but must make the best use of those resources by admitting those students who can make the best use of them. In amendment: Mr. Waugh ) That the following be added to recommendation I: Mr. S. Williams ) "... This figure is to be adjusted after more in depth study has taken place." Lost 8118. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Admissions Committee Limitation of enrolment in First Year (continued) Dean Will spoke to the concerns expressed about recommendation 2. He stated that there was no evidence that students will be discriminated against by the implementation of enrolment restrictions. He reminded Senate that UBC is already noted in Canada for having high standards of admission and yet large numbers of students do not pass in one or two of the five courses in first year. In response to a query, the Registrar confirmed that the enrolment limitation proposed would apply to all applicants to first year, not just those from within the Province of British Columbia. In speaking to the proposal, Dean Birch supported the recommendation that there be an aggregate limit. He went on to say that in Faculties with large enrolment, such as Arts, Science and to a lesser extent Education, students are free to enrol in courses in each of the other Faculties. For example, students in first year Education take virtually all their studies in the Faculties of Arts and Science so that the only way to control first year enrolment is to control on aggregate rather than individual Faculties alone. He emphasized that the effect of the motion was not to reduce overall enrolment but to maintain the overall enrolment at the present level. Finally, speaking to the basis of admission, he pointed out that on the basis of very extensive studies in this and in other jurisdictions, there is no better single predictor of University success than high school grades. That, he said, holds true no matter what admission test an institution may devise or what admission test it uses. He said that the best predictor of success from every region in B.C. and every school district in B.C. is high school grades. He acknowledged the variability in grading but nevertheless felt that the high school grade is the best predictor available. In an academic institution, Dean Birch said, there is no reasonable basis for admission other than academic achievement. Dr. Benjamin commented that the motion might be stronger if recommendation 4 were to be deleted and therefore moved that recommendation 4 not form part of the motion. Dr. Benjamin ) That recommendation 4 be deleted from the Dr. Elder ) motion. Lost The motion was then put and carried. 8119. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate (continued) Curriculum Committee (see Appendix B') Dr. Richards presented the report. Faculties of Agricultural Sciences, Applied Science, Arts, Commerce and Business Administration, Education and Forestry The committee recommended approval of new courses, course and program changes submitted by the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences; new courses and course changes (with the exception of Chemical Engineering 473 and 474) submitted by the Faculty of Applied Science; new courses, course and program changes submitted by the Faculty of Arts; new courses, course and calendar changes submitted by the Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration; curriculum proposals submitted by the Faculty of Education, with the exception of Business Education 347 which was not recommended for approval because of unnecessary duplication, and course changes submitted by the Faculty of Forestry. Dr. Richards ) Dr. Adams ) That the proposals of the Faculties of Agricultural Sciences, Applied Science, Arts, Commerce and Business Administration, Education and Forestry, be approved. Carried Faculties of Graduate Studies and Medicine The committee recommended approval of new courses and course changes submitted by the Faculty of Graduate Studies, subject to minor editorial changes, the deletion of all 700 level numbers listed under Music and the exception of Plant Science 513 and 514, Forestry 584 and Health Care and Epidemiology 507 and 508. The committee also recommended approval of a Master of Health Science (M.H.Sc) degree program with the proviso that the program be reviewed after five years. Approval of new courses and course changes submitted by the Faculty of Medicine was also recommended, subject to minor editorial changes and the exception of proposals from the Department of Orthopaedics. Dr. Richards ) Dean Larkin ) That the proposals of the Faculties of Graduate Studies and Medicine be approved. Dean Webber requested that consideration of a proposed new course, Family Practice 426, be deferred until the next meeting. 8120. Wednesday, January 18, I 984. Reports of Committees of Senate Curriculum Committee Faculties of Graduate Studies and Medicine (continued) Concern was expressed at the number of (lfe-6) unit topics courses proposed by Education in the Faculty of Graduate Studies submission. Dr. Richards stated that the committee had looked into this and was satisfied that the proposals did not constitute a new set of activities; it was simply an attempt to correctly label current activities. It was the committee's understanding that the concern was well recognized in the Faculty of Education and was under careful review to ensure that there will be no unnecessary proliferation of units. Dean Lusztig ) That the two new courses CSED 508 and CSED Mr. Fields ) 580 be tabled pending satisfactory consultation between the Faculty of Education and the Faculty of Graduate Studies. Lost The motion was put and carried. School of Physical Education & Recreation and the Faculty of Science The committee recommended approval of proposed revisions to the Calendar statement for the B.P.E. program submitted by the School of Physical Education and Recreation, and new courses, course and program changes submitted by the Faculty of Science, subject to minor changes and the exception of the proposed change in prerequisite for Computer Science I 14. Dr. Richards ) That the proposals of the School of Physical Dean Finnegan ) Education and Recreation and the Faculty of Science be approved. Carried Nominating Committee Dr. Richards presented the following report: "Ad hoc Committee on Course Changes At its meeting of December 15, 1983, Senate agreed that an ad hoc committee be established to review the proposals of the Faculty of Arts to alter the present University regulations with respect to changes in a student's program of courses, together with the responses of the Faculties and other matters concerning student records. The Nominating Committee recommends the following membership: 8121. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Nominating Committee Ad hoc Committee on Course Changes (continued) " Dr. R. A. Adams - Science Mrs. P. H. Angus - Registrar's Office Mr. G. D. Burnyeat - Convocation Mr. W. J. Dusing - Arts Dr. R. F. Kelly - Commerce Miss J. H. Querie - Student (Commerce) Ms. J. M. Weakland - Education Mr. S. Williams - Student (Applied Science) Membership on the Nominating Committee At its meeting of September 14, 1983, Senate requested the Nominating Committee to review the matter of elections of students to the Nominating Committee. The committee has reviewed this matter and it is felt that there should be a common procedure for filling any vacancy on the Nominating Committee, and therefore proposes that the existing rules for the composition of the Committee should be changed as follows: From: When a vacancy occurs in the Nominating Committee, the Senate shall elect a member of Senate to fill it. To: When a vacancy occurs in the Nominating Committee, the vacancy shall be declared at the next regular meeting of Senate at which time there shall be a call for nominations to fill the vacancy. The nominees shall indicate to the Secretary of Senate their willingness to stand, prior to the election. The Senate shall elect a member of Senate to fill the vacancy by a show of hands at the immediately following regular meeting of Senate." Dr. Richards ) That the recommendations of the Nominating Dr. Dennison ) Committee for membership on the ad hoc Committee on Course Changes be approved. Mr. Sean Williams declined his nomination and nominated Miss S. M. Dickinson to serve on the committee. The motion was put and carried. Dr. Richards) That the recommendation of the Nominating Dr. Elder ) Committee concerning procedures for filling vacancies on the Nominating Committee be approved. In amendment: Dr. Tennant ) That the words "... a show of hands ..." be Rev. Burns ) replaced by the word "... ballot ...". Carried The motion, as amended, was put and carried. 8122. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate (continued) Committee on Student Awards Mr. McWilliams, Chairman of the committee, presented the following report: At the September 1983 meeting of Senate, the Committee on Student Awards was asked to further consider the two matters arising from their report dated August 1983: namely (I) the definition of "full program" for scholarship purposes and (2) the distribution of University Scholarships with specific reference to the "150% Rule". 1. Clarification of Full Program Although in recent years an increasing number of students have taken advantage of the flexibility offered by faculties for part-time study, undergraduate scholarships have generally been restricted to full program students. Since 1981, the Awards Office has based the definition of full program on a table prepared by the Registrar's Office, based on the programs approved by individual faculties and reflected in the Calendar. The table was established by the Registrar's Office to determine appropriate tuition fee assessments. In 1982, recognizing that in some faculties as many as 30% of the registered students were not eligible for scholarships, the Senate, acting on a recommendation of the Committee on Student Awards, approved in principle, the extension of the University Scholarship Program to students carrying between 80% and 99% of a full program. Unfortunately, the expansion of the program was subject to funding which to date has not been forthcoming. As a result of its most recent review, the Committee believes that definition of full program for purposes of undergraduate scholarships should be expanded to include students who are carrying at least 95% of the normal program load as defined in the Calendar. 2. Distribution of University Scholarships The University Scholarship Program was started in 1977/78. The concept was to ensure that the top students in every year of the undergraduate program in each faculty or school would receive at least a minimum level of scholarship support even if no designated scholarship funds were available. In 1979, the newly established Commit.ee on Student Awards recommended that, on a trial basis, the 150% Rule be implemented. After a two-year trial, the Committee recommended that it be disconfinued. At that time, the Committee felt that the money spent in supporting the 150% Rule (+$35,000) could be more effectively used to increase the top level of the University Scholarship awards from $750 to $950. When the report of the Committee was considered by Senate in September 1983, two related issues with financial implications were raised. Senate questioned the narrow definition of "full program" and also the large number of students who were excluded from scholarship consideration. The Awards Office has estimated that the inclusion of students carrying between 95% and 99% of a full program will cost approximately $12,000. Expansion of the program on a pro-rata basis to students carrying between 80% and 94% of a full program will cost an addition $50,000. The cost of re-introduction of the 150% Rule has been estimated at $60,000 at present scholarship levels. Reports of Committees of Senate Committee on Student Awards (continued) 8123. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. As a result of a recent discussion with the President, it seems extremely unlikely that additional operating funds will be available in 1984/85, to support undergraduate scholarships. Given no additional funds, the 150% Rule can only be re-introduced at the expense of existing scholarships. If the 150% Rule is reintroduced, the top level of award would have to be reduced from $950 to $750 or other modifications made to award levels or percentage ranges. There is no clear concensus within the Committee with respect to the 150% Rule. Senate will ultimately have to make a decision with respect to the priorities for change to the University Scholarship Program. The Committee has reviewed the choices and recommends the following: (a) Commencing in 1984/85, the definition of full program for purposes of undergraduate scholarships be expanded to include students who are registered for at least 95% of a full load as defined in the Calendar. Every effort will be made to meet the increased cost internally, without any effect on the overall award value and ranges (b) Senate re-affirm its decision to extend University Scholarship support, on a pro-rata basis, to students who are registered for between 80% and 94% of a full load as defined in the Calendar. (The original recommendation read 80% to 99%; however, it is being amended to conform with (a) above). This recommendation is subject to availability of new funding. (c) In view of the restricted budget combined with the likelihood of significant fee increases over the next three years, the re-introduction of the 150% Rule at the expense of the existing program is not appropriate. Mr. McWilliams ) That recommendations (a) and (b) be approved. Dr. Ellis ) In reply to a query concerning the cost of including students carrying between 95% and 99% of a full program, Mr. McWilliams stated that the figure of $12,000 had been arrived at by analyzing the 1982/83 records. Concern was expressed that nothing was being done for part-time students. Since it was almost impossible for students, particularly in the Faculty of Arts, to take 95% of a full load it was felt that there had been no concession at all. ln reply to a further query concerning students taking more than the required number of units for a program in one year but less in the following year, it was confirmed that for the purposes of eligibility for undergraduate scholarships they would lose full program status. It was pointed out that 50% of students in the Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration are not eligible for scholarships under either present or proposed rules. The motion was put and lost. 8124. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Reports of Committees of Senate Committee on Student Awards (continued) Mr. McWilliams ) That recommendation (c) be approved. Miss Warren ) In arguing against the recommendation Dean Lusztig circulated to Senate an illustration of how the retention of the 150% Rule impacted those Faculties that have named scholarships available. After further discussion the motion was put and lost. Dean Lusztig ) That the Senate Awards Committee be instructed Dean Burns ) that the "150% Rule" pertaining to University scholarships be reverted to. Carried Faculty of Graduate Studies Committee on Science, Technology and Society Studies The following Calendar statement for a Committee on Science, Technology and Society Studies had been circulated: "The many issues raised by the relations among science, technology, and the larger social context requires combinations of knowledge and expertise not readily available in any single discipline. The Committee on Science, Technology, and Society (STS) Sfudies has been established to support and encourage research and teaching in this important field. Some examples of issues in the STS area are the development of science and technology and the capacity to adjust the roles and ethical responsibilities of scientists and technologists; and fhe relations among science, technology, and other social institutions. The STS Committee advises students of options in the field of study, may coordinate and supervise their programs, and, when appropriate, initiate graduate instruction. Although most students will pursue their studies within disciplinary departments, the STS Committee is prepared to advise and supervise students in "Interdisciplinary Studies" when appropriate. Programs of study leading to Master's and Ph.D. degrees in various aspects of STS are available in a number of Faculties and Departments. Among these are: foundational studies in History, Philosophy, or Sociology; cross-cultural studies of science and technology (as in Anthropology or Asian Studies); Science and Technology Policy Studies (as in Political Science, Economics, International Relations, Community and Regional Planning, or Commerce and Business Administration). Students wishing to specialize or study in STS should contact the Coordinator for lists of relevant courses, research projects and faculty members." 8125. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Faculty of Graduate Studies Committee on Science, Technology and Society Studies (continued) Dean Larkin ) That the proposed Calendar statement for a Dr. Lavkulich ) Committee on Science, Technology and Society Studies be approved. Carried Academic freedom Dr. Wisenthal ) That in this period of fiscal difficulty Senate Dr. Silver ) reaffirm the principles of academic freedom and the autonomy of the University in establishing its academic priorities. Carried Report of the Tributes Committee Emeritus status Dean Larkin reported that the committee recommended that Dr. C. Reid be granted the status of Professor Emeritus of Chemistry. Dean Larkin ) That the recommendation of the Tributes Miss Warren ) Committee be approved. Carried Honorary Degrees Senate was informed that the following persons had accepted invitations to receive honorary degrees at the 1984 Congregation: The Hon. Henry P. Bell-Irving (LL.D.) Mr. Leopold L. G. Bentley (LL.D.) The Hon. J. V. Clyne (LL.D.) Dr. Charles A. McDowell (D.Sc.) Mr. Saburo Okita (LL.D.) Mr. Mstislav Rostropovich (LL.D.) Mr. Thomas K. Shoyama (LL.D.) Other business Student Membership on Senate On behalf of Senate the Chairman expressed thanks and appreciation for the contribution made by Mr. Michael A. McCann who was attending his last Senate meeting. Report of the Senate Budget Committee Dr. Scudder presented the following report for information: 8126. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Other business Report of the Senate Budget Committee (continued) "As Senate will realize from the timetable presented at the last meeting, the various budget reduction submissions from the Faculties will not be complete until the end of this month. Hence, there is nothing to report on them, although we note that Vice-President Smith's committee has had some preliminary planning meetings. Since the December meeting of Senate, the Senate Budget Committee has focussed its attention on the tuition fee increase, and it now wishes to report on the advice that it has given to the President. As a preamble, the Committee notes that the President announced on December 6, 1983 that there is a proposal to double the student fee revenue over the next three years, so that it will constitute 20% of the University net operating budget in 3 years time. The proposal is that the fee revenue next year will increase by 33%, and it is anticipated that this would then contribute $6 million to the potential $18 million shortfall in the operating budget; the other $12 million is to be obtained by a reduction in the operating budget itself. The proposal is also that while student fees will increase on average by 33%, so also will student aid. The Senate Budget Committee has reviewed the proposal in detail, and while not happy with the proposed increase, doesn't see much of a choice. Accordingly, at its meeting on January 16, 1984, it passed the following motion: "The Senate Budget Committee recognizes the necessity of the increase in fees that is proposed, and welcomes the effort to rationalize comparative fee structure." The latter part of the motion concerns certain changes that are proposed, among which are the following: 1. Fees should be comparable to those at SFU for the same program. 2. The fee differential by year currently incorporated in certain undergraduate degree programs will be eliminated. The Senate Budget Committee has also spent some time debating the proposal that there should be a differential fee structure for undergraduate visa students. We note that this will not apply to current visa students, but will apply to new ones. It should be noted that the differential fee proposal also contains a section on student aid. As an aside, it may be observed that currently visa students cannot qualify for student aid. The proposal is that there will be a student aid program for visa students paying the differential fees, and that this would amount to 25% of the extra fee revenue produced by the fee differential. Our debate was quite wide-ranging. It was noted that the current Admission policy is that undergraduate visa students are only admitted when a comparable program is not available in their home country. 8127. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. Other business Report of the Senate Budqet Committee (continued) "We can note that the AUCC submission to the Royal Commission on the Economic Union and Developmental Prospects for Canada (also known as the Macdonald Commission), as reported in the January 1984 issue of University Affairs, calls on the commission to urge the two levels of government to encourage more foreign students to study in Canada. The AUCC brief says, and I quote "Canada's system of education cannot help but benefit from continuing contacts with the international intellectual community" end quote: We have referred back to the last time this differential fee issue was discussed in Senate. At its meeting of January 19, 1977 Senate discussed a motion to increase tuition fees for both non-B.C residents and non-Canada residents. This motion was lost, and the minutes noted that in the discussion opinions were expressed that it would be undesirable to discriminate against students from out of province and from other countries. Assuming that those are still the views of Senate, there being no information to the contrary, the Senate Budget Committee on January 16, 1984 passed a second motion as follows: "With regard to the proposed differential fee structure for visa students at the undergraduate level, the SBC, in the spirit of the 1977 Senate resolution on this matter, does not support the proposal. However, it recognizes that other factors, both fiscal and political, may have to be considered in subsequent discussions at the Board of Governors level." The meeting adjourned at 10.30 p.m. The next regular meeting of Senate will be held on Wednesday, February 15, 1984. Secretary Confirmed, Chairman 8128. Wednesday, January 18, 1984. APPENDIX 'A' New awards recommended to Senate Carl and Elsie Halterman Scholarship - Scholarships to a total of approximately $13,000 per annum have been made available through the Vancouver Foundation, by the late Carl and Elsie Halterman.

The role of librarians is to translate the library's potential into effective, efficient service by making available a wide range of materials in all media, by organizing and describing these materials so as to facilitate their use, by stimulating the use of such materials, and by assisting and participafing in the many-sided pursuit of information. Advances in electronic technology and information management provide opportunities for librarians to work outside the typical library setting. Planning and developing bibliographic and non-bibliographic data bases and searching systems, designing and operating library and information networks, and providing information search services on a free-lance basis are characteristic of professional functions. Graduates of the School need to understand and appreciate the application of computer technology to information management, the ways in which information is communicated to a variety of user groups, and policies which affect the free flow of information.

Change in admission requirements: Knowledge of a computer language, while very useful to librarians, is not accepted as equivalent to knowledge of a natural language. Change in Calendar statement - Undergraduate Preparation: Students are expected to develop some facility in typing before entering the School, because a large part of the work is normally submitted in typewritten form, and because students will be required to make efficient use of the computer-terminal keyboard. Basic courses in statistics and computer science are also recommended. Change in Calendar statement - General Information: Admission to 600-level courses - Few of the courses listed in the Calendar have stated prerequisites. However, the core program of 500-level courses is prerequisite to most elective courses at the 600 level. Students who have not completed the core program at this School or its equivalent at another accredited library school will not normally be permitted to enrol in or audit such 600-level courses. Students not registered in the M.L.S. program who wish to enrol in or audit any courses should apply to the Director. Change in Calendar statement - Requirements for the Degree of M.L.S. Replace third paragraph with the following: Up to 6 of the required 30 units may be taken in courses offered by other departments of the University, provided that such work is judged by the faculty to be directly relevant to the individual's studies in librarianship. Where the candidate has already taken postgraduate work in another department, remission may be granted in the elective part of the program up to a maximum of 6 units, provided that the courses taken are judged by the faculty to be relevant to the individual's study of librarianship.

APPENDIX B' Course and curriculum proposals (continued) FACULTY OF SCIENCE Biochemistry Program changes - change Calendar statement to: The Department offers opportunities for study leading to bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees. For information on the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degree programs, see the Faculty of Graduate Studies section of the calendar. There are two separate options leading to a B.Sc. degree within the Biochemistry program; one emphasizes the metabolic and structural aspects of Biochemistry (Option A) and the other emphasizes the genetic and molecular biological aspects of Biochemistry (Option B). Both Major options provide a strong background in Biochemistry and both are sufficiently flexible for students to develop their interests in allied fields (e.g., microbiology, food science, chemistry, etc.). Either Major option is appropriate for students who anticipate a professional career in the Health Sciences. Either of the two Honours options is the recommended route for students interested in graduate studies in Biochemistry or related disciplines. However, students enrolled in a Major program with a strong academic record may also apply for graduate studies.
