UBC Reports September 30, 1981\nUBC gets Knowledge Network\nUBC is about to become the\noperations centre for the Knowledge\nNetwork, the province-wide\neducational television network\nestablished in 1980 as a non-profit\nsociety by the provincial government.\nUnder an agreement negotiated\nduring the past six months, the\nnetwork, which assists educational\ninstitutions and government agencies\nin the delivery of distance education\nprograms by television, will rent space\nin UBC's Library Processing Centre\nand the adjacent Woodward\nInstructional Resources Centre.\nOn Oct. 5, the network's satellite\ntransmitter will be moved into position\natop the Woodward IRC and\nKnowledge Network personnel\ncurrently located at the B.C. Institute\nof Technology, where network\nprogramming now originates, will\nmove to Point Grey.\nFrom quarters in the Woodward\nIRC, network personnel will oversee\nthe transmission of 98 hours of public\neducational television which is beamed\nweekly to all parts of the province.\nFall program guides are available from\nnetwork offices on the fourth floor of\nthe Library Processing Centre, 2206\nEast Mall, telephone 224-6571.\nThe negotiations which led to the\nrelocation of the Knowledge Network\nat UBC were carried out under the\ngeneral direction of a UBC committee\nchaired by Prof. Robert Smith, UBC's\nassociate vice-president, academic.\nThe man who carried out the day-\nto-day liaison with the network was\nIan Cameron, head of the audio-visual\nand television division of the\nUniversity's Department of Biomedical\nCommunications, which also has its\nheadquarters in the Woodward IRC.\nThe network's side of the negotiations\nwere carried out by David Roach,\nmanager of network operations and\nEva Branner, manager of the\nnetwork's business services.\nThe Knowledge Network is governed\nby a nine-member board and its\npresident is Prof. Walter Hard wick,\nformer deputy minister in the\nprovincial Ministry of Education, who\nlast year returned to teaching and\nresearch duties in UBC's Department\nof Geography in the Faculty of Arts.\nThe network reports to the\nprovincial government through the\nHon. Patrick McGeer, Minister for\nUniversities, Science and\nCommunications.\n\"The Knowledge Network,\" Prof.\nHardwick says, \"is pioneering in the\narea of educational\ntelecommunications and independent\nlearning systems, areas which will\nexpand learning opportunities and,\nthrough substitution of\ncommunications for travel, maintain\nand expand the level of services to\nremote areas at reasonable cost.\"\nKnowledge Network programs are\nreceived throughout B.C. as well as in\nthe Yukon, Western Alberta and the\nNorthwest Territories. The network's\nsignals are bounced back to earth\nfrom Canada's ANIK-B satellite, in\nfixed orbit 22,000 miles above the\nequator, and picked up on earth-\nterminal installations.\nThe signals are currently received in\n53 communities and broadcast by\ncablevision in 45 of them. An\nadditional 50 small communities are\nhoping to join the network in the next\nfew months under a Ministry of\nCommunications grant program for\nisolated communities.\nCommunity colleges and school\ndistricts in many communities have\nestablished viewing centre classrooms\nwhere students may go to participate\nin programs. In many B.C.\ncommunities, the network can be\nviewed in the home via cablevision.\nOn the Lower Mainland, viewers have\nto have a converter attached to their\nsets to process the network's signals.\nUBC is contributing material for\neach of the three general categories of\nprogramming being broadcast by the\nKnowledge Network this fall.\n1. UBC is one of 13 B.C.\neducational institutions which are\noffering a total of 28 \"Telecourses\" for\ncredit this fall.\nThe telecourses cover a wide range\nof subjects, including geography,\nmathematics, art, astronomy, biology,\nbusiness, psychology and child\ndevelopment. Students who enrol for\nthe courses through community\ncolleges or UBC receive study guides,\ntextbooks and the services of a tutor\nwho is available by telephone or\nthrough a local learning centre.\nTelecourse viewers get some form of\ncredit from the institution sponsoring\nthe course, provided they register, pay\na fee and write and pass various tests.\nUBC offers a course entitled\n\"Pyramids to Picasso,\" a survey course\non art and architecture, which carried\nthree units of credit in the Department\nof Fine Arts (its equivalent in the UBC\nCalendar is Fine Arts 125).\nWith three community colleges,\nUBC also registers students for a\ntelecourse entitled \"An Introduction to\nComputers and their Application.\"\nStudents who successfully complete the\ncourse and are registered with UBC\nreceive one of the 12 credits required\nto qualify for a Diploma in\nAdministration for Engineers.\nBoth telecourses are offered through\nUBC's Centre for Continuing\nEducation.\n2. UBC's profile on the Knowledge\nNetwork is highest in the area of\n\"Interactive Programs,\" which will\noriginate from the network's facilities\nin the Woodward IRC and will be\nbroadcast \"live\" throughout the\nprovince.\nInteractive programs are especially\nvaluable in the area of professional\ncontinuing education or in specialized\nareas of provincewide interest. It's\nanticipated that this will be the chief\narea of emphasis for universities in the\nimmediate future.\nWhat gives an added dimension to\nthis form of broadcast is that viewers\nare able to communicate with\ninstructors by telephone during and\nafter a studio presentation.\nThe UBC Faculty of Education's\ncontribution to interactive\nprogramming began Sept. 12, when\nthe first of a weekly series of\nvideotapes on exceptional children was\nbroadcast. School teachers who are\nenrolled for the course will receive\ncredit for Education 312 when they\nhave successfully completed\nrequirements. The videotapes were\nproduced in the faculty's own facilities\nin the Scarfe Building.\nStarting today (Sept. 30), the first of\nfour continuing dental education\nprograms will he broadcast over the\nnetwork. The two-hour programs\ncover such topics as impact injuries, a\nreview of head and neck anatomy and\nthe recognition and description of\nclinical and oral lesions.\nLate in October, the continuing\nmedical education division will begin\nbroadcasting for physicians in general\npractice throughout B.C. a six-part\nseries on the recognition, diagnosis\nand management of rheumatology,\nthroughout B.C.\nAnd UBC's School of Social Work\nwill use network facilities in October\nand November to communicate with a\ngroup of students who will gather at\nthe College of New Caledonia in\nPrince George, where the school offers\na credit program leading to the degree\nof Bachelor of Social Work.\n3. Finally, UBC is involved in\ngeneral-interest programming called\n\"Teleseries.\" This type of\nprogramming, which utilizes tapes\nfrom Great Britain's Open University\nand other educational television\ngroups, covers a wide range of topics\nin the fields of history, music, science,\nforestry, geography, literature, law,\ntechnology and communications.\nUBC's contribution to the teleseries\nis a series of six programs prepared by\nthe UBC Museum of Anthropology.\nThe series introduces viewers to UBC\nmuseum collections and describes\nNative Indian fishing and canoe\ntechniques.\nMeanwhile, work is continuing on\nanother major component of the\nKnowledge Network, which is expected\nto be complete early in 1982.\nA $1.2 million grant from the\nprovincial government is being used to\nprovide a closed circuit cable and\nmicrowave system linking B.C.'s three\npublic universities, the affiliated\nteaching hospitals associated with\nUBC's health sciences disciplines and\nthe downtown Law Courts with the\nFaculty of Law building at UBC.\nOne of the chief advantages of the\nsystem linking the affiliated teaching\nhospitals and the Law Courts and the\nLaw Building on the UBC campus will\nbe to avoid time-consuming travel for\nstudents and faculty members.\nHealth sciences students and faculty\nmembers in any one of the teaching\nhospitals will be able to see surgery as\nit takes place. Not only will they also\nbe able to hear comments on the\nprocedure by the operating surgeon,\nbut viewers will also be able to ask\nquestions as the operation progresses.\nDoctors at any one of the teaching\nhospitals will be able to give a case\npresentation (called \"rounds\") to\ngroups at any of the other hospitals.\nThe many ways in which the\nKnowledge Network can be utilized for\nthe delivery of educational programs is\nbeing discussed on several levels at\nUBC.\nProf. Smith and administrators at\nUVic and SFU are considering how the\nnetwork can be used for delivering\ncredit and non-credit programs to the\nmany communities in the Interior of\nthe province which have receiving\nfacilities.\nProf. Smith said the Universities\nCouncil had allocated \"a modest sum\nof money\" for initial program\nplanning and development.\nAnother planning group has been\nformed for the health science\ndisciplines under the chairmanship of\nDean Bernard Riedel, dean of the\nFaculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences\nand Co-ordinator of Health Sciences.\nAnd Associate Dean of Commerce\nGRANT'\nOpen\n\u2022 NSERC: Individual Grants Collaborative\nSpecial Projects.\nOctober 31\n\u2022 Japan World Exposition Commemorative\nFund International Projects.\nNovember 1 '\n\u2022 Alberta Oil Sands Tech. and Research\nAuthority Research Contract.\n\u2022 AUCC: International Scholarships Study\nResearch in West Germany.\n\u2022 Distilled Spirits Council of U.S. Grants-in-aid\nfor Research.\n\u2022 Health and Welfare: Family Planning\nAwards\/Demonstrations.

UBC Reports September 30, 1961\nSeptember 30\nan historic date\nOur beginnings . . .  UBC Fairview campus, 1915 to 1925\n1 In the last 66 years, we've grown up.\nIn 1915 UBC opened its doors to 379\nstudents on an operating budget of\n$175,000. In 1980-81, we served almost\n100,000 students, on an operating grant  of\n$143,300,000.\n2 Of those 100,000, more than 34,000\n\"\"are taking credit courses during the day or\nat night, through winter, spring or summer\nsessions, or by correspondence. UBC now\nhas the second largest full-time enrolment\nof university students anywhere in Canada.\n3 The original staff of 34 facdty\n-ihembers has expanded as well. Full-time\nteaching staff number 1,900, with slightly\nfewer than that number teaching part-\ntime.\n4 A committee appointed in 1932 to\ninvestigate B.C. finances and recommend\neconomies (things were not so different\njtthen) suggested that consideration be given\nto closing UBC and providing students with\nscholarships to attend other Canadian\nuniversities. The government rejected the\nadvice.\n5 Since its beginning in 1915, UBC has\nawarded more than 100,000 degrees.\nv\n6 It's not easy to be admitted as a\nstudent to UBC. Entrance requirements for\nfirst year students as of September 1981 are\namong the stiffest in Canada.\n. 7 The residences at UBC house 3,400\ngle students and 393 couples or families,\naking it the second largest university\ndormitory operation in Canada.\n8    UBC faculty members volunteer their\nexpertise to some 400 groups each year\nthrough the UBC Speakers' Bureau, giving\ntalks on everything from acupuncture to\nrzoning. More than 900 topics are currendy\nbffered. If you need a speaker for your\norganization call the Speakers' Bureau, run\nby UBC's Alumni Association, at 228-3313.\n9 In 1981, 21 members of the provincial\nlegislature were UBC grads.\nIfi From one senior citizen to another: If\nyou're 65 or over, you can take credit\ncourses free at UBC.\n11 More than 3,400 credit courses are\navailable at UBC.\n12 We're constantly changing to keep up\nto date. In a recent four-year period, UBC\ndropped 745 courses from its programs and\nintroduced a thousand new ones.\n13 The UBC campus now covers 396\nhectares (990 acres). Its location on Point\nGrey, originally a federal defence preserve,\nwas set aside in 1910, and UBC moved to\nthat site in 1925.\n14 UBC has graduated 9,024 engineers,\n765 architects, 1,153 business\nadministrators, 407 dentists, 15,010\nteachers, 1,518 foresters, 1,570 home\neconomists, 4,256 lawyers, 1,190 librarians,\n1,800 doctors, 1,876 nurses, 1,207\npharmacists, 574 occupational and physio\ntherapists and 1,541 social workers.\n15 More than 90 per cent of all UBC\ngrads are living and working in Canada;\nmore than 80 per cent are in British\nColumbia.\n16 One of the largest continuing\neducation programs IN THE WORLD is\nconducted by UBC, with more than 94,000\nregistrations last year alone.\n17 There are 327 buildings on the\ncampus, some permanent, some\ntemporary.\n18 \"Temporary\"? UBC defines that word\nas \"WW II huts moved to campus to make\ntemporary classrooms for returned vets in\nthe late '40s and still very much in use 30\nyears later.\" As humorist (and UBC grad)\nEric Nicol has quipped \u2014 they've seen more\nservice in the war against ignorance than\nthey ever saw in the war against Hitler.\n19 Since 1928, UBC students while on\ncampus have contributed more than $6.6\nmillion to funding of 12 major buildings,\nincluding Brock Hall, the War Memorial\nGym, Place Vanier Residence,\nThunderbird Winter Sports Centre, the\nStudent Union Building and, most\nrecendy, the Aquatic Centre.\n20 The Aquatic Centre, winner of the\n1978 gold medal for international nonresidential pools, devotes about 49 per cent\nof its schedule to community swim\nprograms.\n21   Only three per cent of nearly 3,000\nUBC grads who received their degrees in\n1980 were found to be unemployed in a\nrecent survey carried out by the University.\n*2  Prince Charles is the proud owner of a\nUBC engineering jacket, presented to him\non April 1, 1980. (No foolin'.)\n23 UBC's geology museum, the M.Y.\nWilliams, contains the largest and most\ncomprehensive mineral collection in B.C.,\nas well as the province's only dinosaur\nskeleton (Lambeusaurus).\n24 The average age of students at UBC is\nincreasing. About a third of all UBC\nstudents now are older than 25.\n25 Part-time students are also on the\nincrease. 16 per cent of the daytime winter\nsession students are at UBC on part-time\nbasis, compared to 5 per cent a decade\nago.\nSeptember 30, 1981\nmarks the 66th anniversary\nof the start of classes at\nUBC. To mark the occasion\nwe 'd like to share \"66 Facts\nabout UBC\" with you.\nAlthough UBC is young by\nuniversity standards, much\nhas been achieved since that\nfirst year. We look forward\nwith anticipation and\nexcitement to the\nachievements which the\nfuture surely will bring.\nSincerely,\n\/f.\n\/Ail+vvyS\nDouglas T.

(You can\ncarry this \"biggest, best\" stuff only so farl)\nIn spite of the location, some seven\nexhibitions ranging from classical to\nmodern are mounted each year.\n32 The UBC Conference Centre, which\nuses the University residences during the\nsummer months, attracted some 20,000\nconference delegates and their families last\nsummer. Money made by the Conference\nCentre during the summer subsidizes the\ncost of residence accommodation for\nstudents during the winter.\n33 UBC chemist Jim Kutney has\nsuccessfully recreated in his lab natural\nchemicals that had been derived at great\nexpense from plants for use as cancer\ndrugs. Using his method, other scientists\ncan now produce drugs which don't occur\nin nature at all, and whose anti-cancer\nproperties may be much better than those\nof natural drugs.\n34 Native Indians have access to a special\nprogram at UBC so that they can train to\nUBC Point Grey campus in 1925\nbe teachers in schools in B.C. For two\nyears they attend classes near their homes\nin Chilliwack, North Vancouver, Terrace\nand Kamloops. Their last two years are\nspent on campus.\n35 Senior dental students in UBC's\nFaculty of Dentistry provided free dental\nservices to 1,102 Lower Mainland school\nchildren in the summer of 1981, services\nwhich would have cost more than\n$303,000.\n36 A man with a mattock can plant 700\ntree seedlings a day. UBC forester Jack\nWalters invented a replanting gun now\nbeing used commercially that shoots\nseedlings in plastic bullets into the ground\nat a rate of 2,600 a day, and is now\nadapting an all-terrain vehicle mounted\nwith self-loading guns for use in replanting\nB.C.'s forest lands.\n37 About 47 per cent of all\nundergraduate students at UBC, and 41\nper cent of those registered for master's\ndeerees, are women.\n38 Eye doctors in UBC's Faculty of\nMedicine visit the Keewatin district in\nCanada's north to diagnose and treat eye\ndisease among Eskimos. They provide the\nsame service to the citizens of Fort St.\nlohn, B.C.\n39 As near as we can figure it rains 54.13\nper cent of the winter session days on the\nUBC campus. But then, think how\ndepressing that would be if you had to\nshovel itl\n40 A high-powered lamp which could\nrevolutionize stadium and industrial\nlighting had its beginnings in a UBC\nphysics lab.

UBC Reports September 30, 1981\nDifference\n(continued from page 1)\n(a) double-digit inflation;\n(b) operating grants from\ngovernment that have fallen\nsignificantly below what the University\nhas requested; and\n(c) the University does not have the\nsame ability as most of industry to\noffset rising costs with rising\nproductivity \u2014 there are few, if any,\nshortcuts to producing highly educated\npeople.\nLet me say a few words on this last\npoint.\nThe University of British Columbia\nhas become a great university, largely\nthrough its firm commitment to\nquality. It will be able to retain that\nstature only by continuing to insist on\nquality. Some of the difficult planning\nchoices that confront the University\nwould be eased superficially if the\nUniversity were to accept lowering of\nscholarly standards. But the long-term\nacademic interests of the University,\nthe province and the nation will not\nbe served by letting our standards slip.\nQuality education is expensive. But\nthen, one must ask: What are the costs\nof having mediocre higher education?\nWithout a strong commitment to first-\nclass higher education, British\nColumbia will be condemned to a\nsecond-class future.\nLet me make a few observations\nabout operating grants from the\ngovernment. From fiscal year 1975-76\nto 1981-82, the cumulative shortfall\nbetween grant requested and grant\nreceived has been close to $90 million.\nThe shortfall for the current year was\nover $8 million. I know, and I am sure\nthe Board knows, that the requested\ngrants have always been on the fiscally\nprudent and conservative side.\nDo these shortfalls convey a message\nto the University?\ne provincial government in recent\nyears seems to be saying: \"We can\nafford some higher education, but not\ntoo much.\" Governments can readily\ncontract publicly-funded institutions\nby stopping to feed their financial\ngrowth.\nObviously, the University must seek\nto demonstrate to the province that\nthe need for higher education is as\nimportant as many other public\npriorities and that the University will\nreturn invaluable economic and social\nbenefits in exchange for the province's\ninvestment. Perhaps we have not\nsufficiently communicated to the\npublic and the government the social,\ncultural and economic benefits of the\nUniversity. I would welcome any\nsuggestions on how the University may\nplace this issue before the public and\nthe government.\nIn making suggestions, however,\nremember that all governments are\nbeing told to curb their spending and\nto stop attempting to balance their\nbudgets on the taxpayer's back.\nI know that the continued shortfall\nin grants is of concern to you. This\nUniversity had to remove from\ncontinuing operating costs in the last\nfive fiscal years approximately $7\nmillion, because operating grants had\nnot kept pace with inflation of salaries\nand non-salary costs. Obviously, such\nretrenchments are fraying our\nshoestring budget and are bringing on\nacademic malnutrition.\nOur retrenchments were not\ndelusions. They were real. And they\nhave threatened the whole academic\nenterprise.\nThe belt-tightening had already\nbegun in 1976, and by 1980 the\nacademic ribs could be counted. The\ncumulative effect of this compression\nof funds, plus the announcement of an\n11.83 per cent increase in the 1981-82\noperating grant, which, incidentally, is\ntotally inadequate to meet salary and\nwage increases and the higher costs of\nmaterials and supplies, adds up to a\nfinancial crunch of major proportions.\nHigher education is not a source of\nUDC\nCalcndaR\ninflation; it is a victim of inflation.\nInflation has drastically increased our\noperating costs, but our income has\nnot increased correspondingly.\nInflation is the heaviest tax we have,\nfor we have no direct control over\nmany of our costs. University costs\nfollow the inflationary spiral upward.\nAbout 15 per cent of the total cost\nof running the University is in non-\nsalary items. Many of these expenses\nare virtually non-controllable costs,\nsuch as heat, light, water, insurance,\ntelephone, paper, books and so forth.\nFor 1982-83 the University has\nestimated an inflation factor on four\ndistinct components of its budget as\nfollows:\n(a) utilities 25%\n(b) books and periodicals 22.5%\n(c) scientific equipment 17.5%\n(d) other supplies 13%\nThe inflation on supplies will add\nabout $4.7 million to our operating\ncosts in 1982-83. And this brings me\nto an assessment of the financial\nconsequences of the arbitrator's award\nfor faculty salaries in 1981-82.\nAs I said, the University received an\nincrease in the 1981-82 operating\ngrant for general purposes of 11.83%.\nThis represented the limit of the\nUniversity's ability to pay salary\nincreases in 1981-82. Accordingly, the\nUniversity's final offer to the Faculty\nAssociation was a salary increase of\n12% for continuing members, which\nincluded 3% for career adjustments.\nThe arbitrator, Mr. Bird, awarded\nan across-the-hoard increase of 18% in\naddition to the 3% for career\nadvancement adjustments. Thus, the\nshortfall is 9% of the salary base and\nassociated fringe benefits for\ncontinuing members of the bargaining\nunit, i.e. 9% of $80,405,000 or\n$7,236,450.\nHence there is an annual shortfall of\nover $7 million. While Mr. Bird's\nappreciation of the need for\nsubstantially higher salaries for faculty\nmay be commended, the award totally\nignores the University's financial\nrealities, not to mention the serious\nimpact which it must have on the\nquality of our academic programs.\nI have taken three steps to assure\nthat the additional costs and\ncommitments arising from the\narbitrator's award can be met. First, I\nrecommended to the Board of\nGovernors that they request the\nshortfall of over $7 million from the\nUniversities Council in order to\nmaintain the integrity and excellence\nof existing programs.\nWhile I am confident that the\nUnivejreity and the Universities Council\ncan and will make a strong case for a\nhigher level of government support, I\ncannot be too optimistic that the\ngovernment will bail us out.\nWe have entered a period of\nfinancial stringency. If the government\nfails to respond favorably to our\nrequest, then we will have to trim our\nprograms to fit our financial resources.\nSecond, I have taken steps to cope\nwith the immediate shortfall this fiscal\nyear and to minimize its effect on\nrequirements for future years. Various\nbudget control policies have been\nimplemented to see us through the\ncurrent year without a deficit and over\nthe long run to adjust commitments so\nthat they are consistent with expected\nrevenues. I fully recognize that these\nbelt-tightening policies are\nacademically painful, but they are\nnecessary to avoid a deficit \u2014 which\nwe are not permitted to incur.\nThird, and for the longer term, I\nam in the process of appointing a\ncommittee to advise me on the nature\nand location of retrenchments that\nmay be necessary. I hope this\ncommittee will never have to make its\nrecommendations to me. For if they\ndo, succeeding generations will be the\nlosers even more than we ourselves.\nThe maintenance of quality\nuniversities is one of the few\ninvestments we can make in the future\nof society. Such an investment must\nnot be thwarted.\nThank you.\nUBC Calendar Deadlines\nFor events in the weeks of Oct. 18 and Oct. 25,\nmaterial must be submitted not later than 4 p.m.\non Oct. 8.\nSend notices to Information Services, 6328\nMemorial Rd.
