PROPOSED NEW EDUCATION PROGRAMS

In September 1971 the Dean of Education, in consultation with the Faculty of Education, set up a Steering Committee to advise the Dean on the de— vising of new education pro- grams and their implementa- tion. '

The Committee was repre—. sentative of every education— al institution on the Island: The Department of Education, The School Trustees Associa— tion, The Teachers Federation,

Home and School Association;

and the three University

Faculties. That the pre—

sent Report was achieved

by consensus speaks worlds

for the genial, most com—

petent chairmanship Of our

Dr. Roy Campbell, an Islander himself. The next stage is for

this report to be considered by Faculty; thereafter, a draft program will be sub—

mitted to the Academic

Planning Committee. If the Academic Planning Committee

1

approves it, then the plan goes to Senate for approval. The Faculty has three student representatives with full voting rights and privileges. They are: Diane Brennan, Brian Zalewski, and Peter Noonan. They will . be happy to provide any fur— ther information students may seek, as of course will teaching members of faculty. When the draft proposals are formulated for submission to the Academic Planning Committee, a copy of them will be offered to the Cadre; and any comments that stu— -dents may care to make through their representatives to us

. will be most welcome.
