Business Arising from the Minutes
Dr. Clark referred to a discussion under the item "other business"
at the November 12 meeting of Senate during which some members had the
impression that the Office of Academic Planning was maintaining dossiers
on students. Dr. Clark made it quite clear that no such dossiers were
being kept.
At the previous meeting Dr. Clark had been requested by Senate to
find out the cost involved in doing a study of the sociological background of U.B.C. students. Dr. Clark reported that assuming we had
6,000 entering students the costs would be approximately $1,175.

Study oh the sociological background oh

Dr. Kelly ) requested to do a study oh the sociological

It was agreed that as far as cost was concerned such a study
would probably be feasible but it was pointed out that at the previous
meeting questions were also raised about the significance of the study
and the results that would come from it. Wednesday, December 10, 1969
5141

Dean White ) That these j$iguA£4 be recommended to the
Mr. Dobrey ) BooAd oh Governors.
Dean White explained that the figure of 250, for those programmes
of study not offered elsewhere, represented about the number that went
into those studies in the current year, and that the figure could
accommodate the modest increases that were anticipated.
Dr. Kenny stated that he had discussed the recommendation of the
Committee with Heads of Departments in the Faculty of Arts and the vast
majority of them were not in agreement with the suggested cut-back.
They would prefer to leave enrolment in the Faculty of Arts as it is.
Dr. Kenny felt that if this recommendation were passed it would cut some
students off from fields of study which are not available at junior
colleges.
Dean Shaw expressed concern regarding restriction of enrolment in
the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and the School of Home Economics
as courses were not given at other universities in this Province. Dean
White assured Dean Shaw that there would be no restriction apart from
keeping the figures approximately the same as for this year. Wednesday, December 10, 1969

now completed the work requested by Senate.

the School of Architecture and report to the Curriculum Committee. Wednesday, December 10, 1969
5148
Proposals of the Faculties (Continued)

adapting teaching to the needs of Indian students which had been
put on at the request of Senate and should be considered as a new

Submission from Department of University Extension
Mr. Selman commented on the list of proposed courses to be offered

(Continued)
membership. It was pointed out that membership of the B.C. Teachers'
Federation had been discontinued when the Senate was resconstituted under
the Universities Act, 1963.

School Trustees, to have some representation on Senate and suggested that
it might be useful to hear from the B.C. School Trustees Association on
this subject.
There was considerable opposition to the suggestion. It was
pointed out that two members of Senate are School Trustees.
Dr. Clark ) That Senate, through the President, should
Dr. Belshaw ) write to the School Trustees declining to
grant this request but explaining that the
reasons in no way rehlect upon the valuable
services oh the B.C. School Trustees
Association.
