The University of Alberta Senate

The April meeting of the Uni- versity of Alberta Senate was held on Friday, 27 April in the Council Chamber, University Hall. The following is a brief summary of the issues and topics addressed after the Executive Officers of the Universities of Calgary and Leth- bridge had presented brief reports concerning their institutions.

Report of the Chancellor The Chancellor, Mrs. Jean Forest, presented a brief report concern- ing her activities since the time of the last Senate meeting in February and referred to a busy schedule of public engagements for May and June. In addition, Mrs. Forest paid tribute to those people for whom the meeting on Friday marked their last official activity as members of the Senate. The following Senators have completed their term of office: Gerry Lock, Alexandra Munn, Jean Robertson, Sharon Bell, Steven Kushner, Dean Olmstead, Dan Zirker, Hazel Braithwaite, Elly DeJongh, Alderman Bettie Hewes, Joe Kandler, Ed Lewis, Jean McBean, Patti Meekison, Maureen Samuel, Mary-Jane Shaw, Eugene Steinhauer, Vern Wishart, Bob Edgar, and Harry Gunning. Tribute was paid to all these people for their individual devo- tion to the cause of higher education in this province and

their dedicated commitment to the very many responsibilities which are the province of the Senate.

Report of the Executive Officer The Executive Officer, Mary Totman, extended to members of the Senate an invitation to attend the formal opening of the Uni- versity of Alberta Devonian Botanic Gardens on 13 June. Following a tour of the facility at 1:30 p.m., the new Adminis- tration Building will be opened at 3 p.m.

The Executive Officer also read a letter to the assembled Senate from the former Minister of Advanced Education and Man- power, Dr. Hohol, written while in office. Dr. Hohol commended the Senate for its recommendations concerning the proposed amend- ments to The Universities Act and in particular to Section 51 of that Act. The Minister referred especially to “the fairness” and balanced discussion of the Senate’s report and stated that he would recommend the report of the appropriate parties in the pro- vincial government.

In addition, Mrs. Totman re- ported that the Executive Com- mittee had agreed, subject to Senate’s ratification, to establish an Ad Hoc Committee concerning the acquisition and use of second languages.

Report of the President

Dr. H.E. Gunning spoke briefly about his past five years as an

ex officio appointee to the Senate. Dr. Gunning reviewed his experi- ence as a Senator and as President of the University. In particular

he congratulated the Senate on its dedication to the education of

the primary resource of this province, its people. The Univer- sity, he said, offered leadership

to the province in many varied respects. The importance of the University he attributed not

only to the work of the staff and students, but also to the volunteer efforts of Albertans who

play such a great role in defining the educational needs of the province. “Without the Senate,” Dr. Gunning said, “the Uni- versity would be much less important and much less relevant to the needs of our society.”

Report of the Alumni Association The current President of the Alumni Association, Mr. Bob Edgar, presented an overview of the activities of the General Alumni Association and its Council. Mr. Edgar noted that Dr. and Mrs. Gunning visited many of the various branches of the alumni during the last year. There are branches in Edmonton, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Red Deer, Grande Prairie, Vancouver, and Victoria.

Mr. Edgar also referred to two major projects currently under- taken by the Alumni Association: the memorial for Mamie Simpson, the first Dean of Women at the University, and the Alumni Family Exchange program. To com- memorate the contribution of Miss Simpson, Mr. Edgar noted that there are four main objectives: the setting up of a plaque in Pembina Hall, the acquisition of a major work of art for the Uni- versity, the distribution of works of art to various student areas of the University, and the establish- ment of a Mamie Simpson Memorial Scholarship Fund.

The second major project of the Alumni Association, the establishment of an exchange program for children of Alumni, Mr. Edgar suggested, grew out of a recognition that one of the most valuable aspects of the centennial celebrations in 1967 was the student exchange program. According to Mr. Edgar, similar benefits might well be gained from the Alumni exchange proposals.

Emil Skarin Fund Committee

Dr. Burton Smith, Chairman of the Committee, reported that funds were to be distributed to two groups associated with the Uni- versity. The award was made during the Senate’s lunch on

27 April.

Mr. John Baxter was awarded funds for the continuation of an interdisciplinary journal edited and produced by him and his associates. The Compass has a wide readership and is well received across Canada.

Mrs. Parker-Jervis, of the Society for Talent Education, also received funds. In this case, the funds will be used for the pur-

chase of musical instruments of appropriate size for younger children who make use of the Society’s programs.

The Society for Talent Edu- cation was established by Professor Robertson of the Department of Music in 1965. Currently the Society has a staff of six teachers and an enrolment of 120 students.

In addition, it was reported that the F.P. Galbraith Award for Journalism is to be awarded in 1979 to Mr. Chris Ladd, current City Editor of the Edmonton Sun. Mr. Ladd will audit courses at the University in the coming winter session.

Honorary Degree Recipients

In addition to Father Lacerte and Madame Maillet, who will receive honorary Doctor of Laws degrees at the special convocation of the Faculté Saint-Jean tomorrow, the following people will be receiving honorary Doctor of Laws degrees at the convocations in May. Professor Emeritus Wilfrid Pilkington, Dr. Maury Van Vliet, His Honour Chief Justice

J.V.H. Milvain, and Mr. Max Ward. Each of these individuals will present a convocation address. Folio will summarize their contributions to Alberta society in a later special edition to be distributed 24 May.

(Folio will continue its report of the spring meeting of The University of Alberta Senate on 10 May)

Concert Choir on Tour

“What an exceptional choir. Stylistic feeling, transparency, and extraordinary vocal livelieness, theatrical vivactity in combination with humor and natural joy in music-making swept the entire audience to stormy applause.” This glowing tribute was paid to the University of Alberta Concert Choir by a German critic in the course of the Choir’s tour in 1977. As this issue of Folio appears, the Choir is again touring Germany, eager to repeat and build on its success of 1977 in representing the cultural vitality of Canada, particularly Alberta.

The Choir, which is composed of forty-eight members selected from the full ensemble of eighty members, will give more than fifteen formal concerts between 2 May and 20 May. This figure includes two concerts in Salzburg, Austria. The opening concert will be given at Bundesgartenschau in Bonn on the occasion of that city’s annual garden festival, In addition to singing in the major centres (Bonn, Munich, Frankfurt, Salzburg) and smaller cities Monchengladbach, Konigstein, Hilden), the Choir will wedge in some sightseeeing including a cruise on the Rhine, a visit to the Black Forest, and a tour of the Daimler-Benz factory.

The ensemble will travel by charter bus and will stay with local families, usually for a period

of several days, as concerts are sung in nearby areas. The reper- toire, says conductor Larry Cook, is a balanced one which reflects many different musical periods and styles. It features a healthy portion of Canadian music, including works by Violet Archer and Gerhard Krapf of this University.

There will be limited time for rehearsals so the Choir will have to hark back to the intensive training which began last summer and continued virtually up to departure time. Of course the performers are apt to gain further inspiration from the historic settings of the concerts and the musical knowledge of the audiences. In combining these factors and the good wishes from the home front, it seems likely that the Choir will again reap critical praise and be engaging representa- tives of the University. 0

Arbitration of the Non-Academic Staff Agreement

On 19 April, the Public Service Employee Relations Board (PSERB) issued its decision with respect to items that will be subject to arbitration and which will comprise several of the con- ditions under which non-academic members of staff at The Uni- versity of Alberta are employed.

According to a news release circulated by the Non-Academic Staff Association (NASA), the PSERB decision “should now clear the way for arbitration board hearings and ultimately an arbitral award to establish a collective agreement for the 3,500 Non- Academic staff (hourly and permanent; part-time and full- time) who have been without agreement coverage since June, 1978. It will also make possible, once the arbitral award is issued, the commencement of negotiations to establish pay rates and benefits for the period 1 April 1979 to

31 March 1980.”

The decision handed down by the PSERB on 19 April consti- tutes a public document and is available for perusual by all people who wish to gain more information about those articles which have been made subject to, or excluded from, the arbitration process. The offices of the PSERB and its Executive Director, Mr. S.M. Marlowe, are situated on the Twentieth Floor, Toronto Dominion Tower, Edmonton Centre. The telephone number is 427-7001. 0

Data Needs: For Higher Education

E.A. Holdaway, Director of Institutional Research and Plan- ning, and Abram Konrad, Coordi- nator of the Centre for the Study of Postsecondary Education, recently represented the University at a colloquium in Ottawa which was organized by Statistics Canada. The focal point of the colloquium was “Data Needs for Higher Education in the Eighties.” A host of questions was raised including the following: Who decides how much “just-in-case” data are needed by postsecondary institutions and organizations? How can Statistics Canada ensure that its data are accurate and current? How can Statistics Canada ensure that equivalent definitions, for example, those concerning full-time students, are used in different institutions? What reporting and analytical services should be provided free

page three

and what services at some cost to clients, such as universities and university staff? How can joint university/Statistics Canada research and publications projects be conducted?

A communiqué from Dr. Holda- way points out that additional budget cuts may reduce even further the ability of Statistics Canada to serve the needs of post- secondary institutions. According to Dr. Holdaway, the serious underestimation of the value of educational statistics probably contributes to this erosion of funds. He suggests that university staff who are interested in ensuring that Statistics Canada maintain its current postsecondary statistical services take the following courses of action:

1. Advise Statistics Canada staff of the use that they make of their data and publications. 2. Advise Statistics Canada of suggestions for modification of its activities. 3. Write to MPs expressing con- cern about the reduced level of service.

Dr. Holdaway notes that, at present, Statistics Canada provides valuable services to many admin- istrators and researchers interested in postsecondary educational data. “Members of the Univer- sity community should endeavor to ensure that serious deterioration of these services does not occur,” Dr. Holdaway says.
