ENROLMENT OF 1600 EXPECTED for U of W EllENIN CLASES n n l

A yearning for learning is spreading q&kly among the adult population of this sec- tion of Ontario. More than 1600 persons are expected to enrol in evening courses off- ered by the Adult Education Department of the Univer- sity of Waterloo this fall.

A total of 50 courses are being offered in everything from art, sculpture and home decorating to the regular academic courses in English, French and Sociology, which carry full credit toward a university degree.

In addition to lectures at the university, courses will also be held at Guelph, Galt, Stratford and Wood- stock in co-operation with local ofganizations.

The University of Water- loo’s Adult Education Pro- gram is- organized by Dr. G. E. Reaman, one of Ont- ario’s best known education- alists. Dr. Reaman came to the university originally to do some part-time teaching following retirement as Head of the English Department

The Summer ‘61 version of the Engineering Weekend is wearing a brand new look this year ~ an expanded pro- gramme which should contain something for everyone. Descriptions of the doings abound elsewhere in these pages - the Weiner Roast, Motor Rally, Field Day and Dance are well detailed. It remains for me only to extend to you all a blanket welcome to the Weekend on behalf of the Executive of the Engineering Society. We especially welcome all of the out-of-town guests, both male and female, and sincerely that they will not find our hospitality lacking. My personal thanks go to everyone connected with the planning and operation of the Weekend, with special bouquets to Pete Kent (without whom none of this would be possible), Tom Gravelle, and Bill Bowick. Prosit!

at the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph. In 1956 he was asked to “look into” the possibility of adult edu- cation courses. He soon found he had a tiger by the tail and the original enrolment of 500 has trebled in four years.

“I only wish I were a younger man,” he says, “This field is unlimited. People are starved for op- portunities for self-improve- ment or to keep their think- ing fresh.”

Business groups are also becoming more and more interested in adult education courses for their employees for the same reasons.

“You cannot sell today’s products with yesterday’s methods and be in business tomorrow,” says Dr. Reaman in commenting on the need for courses aimed at people in business.

In the past, the evening courses have been on an individual basis. As long as there were enough people interested in taking a course, the university would find a lecturer and develop a program. Although this still holds true for newer courses, many of the courses are now being integrated so that people can take new

The Decorating Committee Chairman Working on the Theme for the Dance

.

Rumor has it that we’re not going to have a big dance this summer. Rumor also has it that we’re not going to decorate the gym. Another rumor says that if we do decorate, it will be with six foot pictures of nudes.

Well they’re all wrong. We are having a dance and we are decorating the gym with eight foot pictures of nudes. ,

The Saturday night dance may not be quite as classy as other years but all the same it should be lots of fun for anybody who’s not worn

out from the afternoon’s activities. Let’s all get out and have a good time.

It’s customary for this column to make the semi- annual plea for amateur artists and hopeful interior decorators - well here it is. It would be very much ap- preciated if all those wishing to help decorate the gym would sign the notice outside the Engineering Society Office.

Thanks and have a good time.

Bill Bowick.

The Yice-President Marking Out the Obstacle Course

Have you got your waterwings? Weiner roast tickets? Dance tickets?

Did you find a girl? If the answer to these questions is yes, then we can’t

help you. The Weekend Committee would like to thank Orr

Automobiles Ltd., Dominion Sports, and Forbes Motors Ltd., for their interest and contributions.

May a good time be had by all. Pete Kent

Remember When There used to be a sign on

two bulletin boards in the Math’s and Physics Building stating the rules of the “Common Room.” One pro-

hibited eating lunches in the “Common Room”. Recently there have been some staff members seen eating their lunches in there. Should they get preference over the stud- ents who made these rules for the common good of all?

EDITORIAL * * * * *

Next year at this time our first Engineering graduates will have recovered from the graduation “exercises” and will be wending their way into industry, teaching, post- graduate work and other vocations.

Most of us are aware of the acceptance, to varying degrees, of the Co-operative Engineering programme on the undergraduate level but how will this new and, to Canada, revolutionary educational scheme be accepted on the graduate level by industry and the various groups associated with the Engineering profession? Officially, little has been said but. the University Faculty has approached some of these organizations. Several months ago three members of the National Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges (NCCUC) made an extensive tour of the campus. Dean R. R. McLaughlin, Dean of Engineering, U. of T., and chairman of the committee submitted recommendations that the U. of W. be admitted as a member of the NCCUC. In fact, the University of Waterloo was admitted at the June, 1961, meeting of the NCCUC held at McGill.

The Engineering Institute of Canada has given assurance that our degree qualifies the University as a Corporate Member of the Institute.

On May 3rd, 1961, an application for recognition of the University degree was sent to Mr. L. C. Sentance, President of the Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario.

The application was accompanied by copies of past examination papers, academic qualifications of Faculty, listings of Library acquisitions and other pertinent in- formation which the Accreditation Committee of the Association must consider.

Usually the Association does not give its decision until approximately two months before the applicant University graduates a class and no decision is expected in our ease until early next spring.

The acceptance of University of Waterloo Engineering graduates in industry will depend greatly on the Associa- tion’s decision and as to that, a guess at the moment would be pure conjecture.

Enrolment of 1600 Expected - Cont’d. subjects each year on a co-ordinated basis.

Several certificate courses are being offered in the business field, for example. They include a three-year executive development course and two-year pre-manage- ment and pre-commerce courses.

In addition, this is the first year that degree credit courses are’ being offered to evening students. It is prob- able that the demand for such will also increase rap- idly.

Among the Adult Educa- tion of non-academic courses offered this year are com- mercial art, accounting, Rus- sian, Spanish, religion, rapid reading, writing for maga- zines and personnel admin- istration.

A number of courses are being given in co-operation with the Canadian Industrial Management Association, The Associate Appraisal In- stitute of Canada and the Society of Industrial and Cost Accountants of Ont- ario.

One new course which is attracting a high degree ol interest is a lo-week course on the historical background of Latin America.

Specialized facilities of tht university which will be usec for adult education course: include the new high speed computer laboratory and tht recently installed language laboratory.

Registration for the Uni. versity of Waterloo adull education courses will bc held on September 8 and t with lectures to begin the following week.

ZQuestion of the Week ? What contribution will the

New Democratic Party be to Canada’s political future?

My opinion is that The New Democratic Party may bring many changes to Canada’s political future. Their policies are completely different from those of the Liberal or Progressive Con- servative parties which are practically indistinguishable.

The New Democratic Party being a socialist party will give the voter a distinct choice between the New Democratic Party’s public enterprise policies and the free enterprise policies of our present government.

If the political future of Canada proceeds as Britain’s has, in time we may see the

Liberal party lose its power and the Conservative and New Democratic Party will fight for political power.

It will become a stronger socializing influence in Can- adian polities and its strength will depend on the degree of financial support it can ob- tain from the unions. The next major political issue in Ontario will be as to whether or not legislation should be introduced to prevent auto- matic check-off of party dues levied against union mem- bers.
