May it be used\nwisely and well.\"\nThe opening followed the special congregation from which the\nAcademic procession, still in\ntheir robes, proceeded along the\nmain mall up to the front entrance where the formal presentation was made.\nEXPRESSED REGRET\nDr. N. A. M. MacKenzie in\nmaking the introductions, expressed his regret, that Dean\nBuchanan's widow, who passed\naway only a few weeks ago, had\nbeen unable to be present at the\nofficial opening.\nDean Chant, in his remarks\nfollowing the presentation,\nstated the ceremonies marked\nI the occasion when the Humanities received special recognition\n'. from the Universily,\n1 He pointed oul that the building was already being used to\ncapacity, and that il would pay\ngreat dividends in terms of the\n| future of the province and lhe\ncountry,\n1 OPENED FOR INSPECTION\nAfter the ceremonies, the\nI building was opened for inspec-\ni tion, and coed's were on hand to\n] guide the visitors through the\n| rooms.\n| Tea was then served in the\nconcourse bv a number of the\n1 professors' wives,\nPurchase\nEpstein?\nUBC students have as many\ndifferent opinions about Sir\nJacob Epstein's statue of Christ\nas the people downtown.\nNot content with running an\narticle Thursday advocating that\nthe university acquire the controversial work, The Ubyssey\nasked a cross-section of students\nwhat they thought of the proposal.\n\"It is a powerful thing. I\nwould be very pleased to see\nsomething like this on our campus,\" said Dave Wells.\nOn the other hand, Gordon\nGibson said \"Every time I see\na photograph of that thing, I\nwant to pick my nose.\"\nSludents divided evenly into\nthree groups, those who hate the\nstatue, those who love the statue,\nand those who don't understand\nthe statue.\nDave LeWali thought The\nUbyssey's article was a joke, and\nas such he said it was \"first\nclass.\"\nHere's a sprinkling of the most\n(Continued on Page 8)\nSEE PURCHASE EPSTEIN\nEverything\nGoes But Ink\nEverything flowed but the ink at the second Jubilee Congregation, Thursday.\nThe inkwell ran dry on M.

Brooke Claxton, president of Canada\nCouncil is on the campus and since UBC has made good use\nof Council grants for residences this is a good time to examine\nthe Auditor General's suggestion.\nThe advantages to students in being able to live on the\ncampus while attending university are manfold.\nThe extra time gained by not having to commute to and\nfrom the campus can be used to study and to make fuller\nuse of university facilities.\nThe comfort of living in well-built residences as opposed\nto old army huts is fairly obvious.\nThese two factors alone would greatly add to a student's\nenjoyment of studying.\nThe university itself draws benefit from a large number\nof resident students.\nA true university student community with its centre on\nthe campus has developed in the past at universities who are\nable to house the majority of students or, the campus,\nOne only has to turn to Oxford fur an example of tlie\neffectiveness of such a community.\nW. C. Costin, president of St. John's College, Oxford,\nspeaking at the Academic Symposium Wednesday warned\nagainst the clangors of losing this student community through\nover-expansion making the relative number of student residences decline.\nHe stated that Oxford was on its guard against this happening.\nUBC has never been able to have a great many resident\nstudents.\nGrants from the Canada Council have made it possible to\nuna\nresidences here.\nIf grants continue to be made to such projects we can\nlook forward to the number increasing.\nThen we too can fully foster \"the study and enjoyment\nof the humanities.\"\nPoor Show\nE.iitor.

The talk was about our\nuniversities and the role they\nplay in Canada's future as forecast by the Gordon Commission and guaranteed by John\nDiefenbaker's visions.\nThe National Federation of\nCanadian University Students\norganized the seminar at the\nUniversity of Western Ontario,\nand the Canada Council granted funds for the project, Some\nsentences and'or questions will\nbe indelibly engraved on the\nmemory:\n* * *\n\"Teachers should be a mirror, not a barrier.

In the last\nfour years the student enrolment has increased by almost\nfifty per cent, and the facully\nlias almost doubled.\nDuring this time, student\nparking close to lecture rooms\nhas been reduced fifty per cent\nby the addition of buildings to\nthe main narking lot, the Buchanan Building, and by the necessity of increasing the reserv-\namples of the questions raised,\nthe issues debated. We had to\nthink, to re-examine what had\nbeen fairly \"safe\" positions in\nour thinking. We had to reappraise values. The atmosphere\nwas charged and heated; there\nwas a great deal of give and\ntake on both sides of the lectern.\nBesides those already mentioned, the list of the remaining\nseminar leaders was equally\nawesome. Dr. Arthur Tremb-\nlay, of Laval University; Dr.\nAlan Jarvis, director of the National Museum; Mr. Michael\nLang-ham, director of the Stratford Festival Theatre.\nDr. E. W. R. Steacie, President of the National Research\nCouncil; Mr. C. Bruce Hill,\nPresident of ETF Tools Ltd.;\nMr. Walter'McLachlan, Executive Vice President, A. V. Roe\nCanada; and Mr. Eugene Hall-\n,man, Director of Talks and\nPublic Affairs, CBC, were\nsome of the others on the list.\n* * *\nBut such was the quality of\nboth the seminar leaders and\nthe participants that little time\nwas wasted in awe. The questions and contributions from\nlhe students were aggressive\n'.om the beginning. We must\nhave conveyed a different impression to each person who\nled a seminar topic.\nAlan Jarvis told us of his\ngrowing impatience with people\nwho take one hasty look at an\nexample of abstract art, turn\naround and tell the world \"I\ncould do that if I tried.\" One\nof these days, threatens Mr.\nJarvis, he will take people at\ntheir word, and we will have\na touring exhibition called\n\"They Tried.\" He looked\nshocked when we applauded.\nMr. Gower Markle, of the\nUnited Mine workers, looked\nshocked when he discovered\nthat 33 out of 43 of us would\nsoil our hands to work our way\nthrough University. lie concluded we were not sn reactionary as he had thought, but\nthen, we were \"an exceptional\ngroup.\"\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0A- * *\nMr. C. Bruce Hill, President\nof ETF Tools, coined a new\nword that is destined to spread\nlo every campus in Canada. A\ned sections for parking permit '\nholders.\nThe fact that cars can be\nparked in the cvnlvc lanes of\nthe main parking lot and still\nleave room for ears to turn is\nproof that tho double rows are\ntoo widely separated. Few\nstudents know that parking is\npermitted only in areas marked\n\"Student Parking.\"\nAll drivers could help by\nparking their cars closer together, and by using more car-\nchains to cut clown on the total\nnumber of cars on the campus,\nSincerely,\nPETER HEBB, Com 2,\nD. HOPKINS, Arts 4\nuniversity degree in the liberal\narts would help a person in the\nbusiness world, he said, \"but\nif you really want to get to the\ntop, you've got to have the old\ngazook.\"\nThe discussion that statement led to will probably leave\nMr. Hill distrustful of all universities, and find him endowing a university that will instill its graduates with \"gazook.\"\nThere were no concrete solutions reached, nor were we\nasked to formulate any. The\npurpose of the seminar was to\nmake students aware of the\nproblems and questions facing\nuniversities in Canada, and\nthrough publication and communication to make as many\nstudents in Canada aware of\nthem.\n* * *\nHow much stress should be\nput on a staff member's research? Should universities encourage research in such things\nas the sociological implications\nof mass media advertisements,\nwhile their Commerce departments may be teaching mass\nmedia techniques?\nHow should universities resist the pressures to add more\nand more \"vocational\" subjects\nto their calendars? Should they\nresist at all, or is this part uf\nthe!;- functions?\nW h a t a b o u t p r o 1 i f e r a t i o. -'.'\nAre we becoming too concerned\nwith \"'Melhoclology?\" Are vve\nchallenging students? Ii the\nuniversities are to continue using the elementary and high\nschools as a whipping boy for\nthe mediocrity of their graduates, why aren't the universities publicly saying what spe-\ncificaiie these schools are clonig\nwrong?\nThese are only a few of the\nquestions. Have you. given any\nthought to them? Thanks to the\nCanada Council, there are students throughout Canada thinking and inquiring and examining some of our education;,!\npremises. Tiie validity of these\npremises lies, bracketed with\nquestion marks, on a great\nmany minds. A great deal depends on tsieir resolution.\nThe Ubyssey will welcome\nguest editorials and signed\narticles for the editorial page,\nwritten by UBC students or\nfaculty members.\nContributions may deal with\nany topje of interest .to university students. They sihould\nbe typewritten, and triple-\nspaced if possible.\nWe are particularly eager fo\nget connibutions from honours\nand graduate students and\nfrom faculty members.\nIn ne case will The Ubyssey\npublish unsigned material, although pseudonyms may be\nused on occasion.

Grant\nEnglish universities receive 70 per cent of their income\nfrom, the government, according to W. C. Costin, president of\nSt. John's College, Oxford.\nProfessor Costin, whose\nspeech was part of the Jubilee\nSymposium being held at UBC\nthis week, revealed that the government grants are handled\nthrough the University Grant\nCommittee.\nThis committee is made up of\nmembers of (British) universities.\nThe grants, given in five year\nblocks, cannot be cut by incoming governments during that\ntime.
