On August 30, 1972,Xsome 115 Christian students and .chaplains representing 24 Canadian University campuses from as far west as the University of Alberta to as far east as Memorial University of Newfoundland,
gathered together to learn more about Jesus Christ, and‘ to become better Christians. . The theme of the four day ‘tonference was predominated by personal emphasis. "Free— dom, Prayer and Sexuality" and presentations by Nathan Kollar, Joe Wise and John ,and Mary_Snyder aimed at heal change of heart in individuals.

In such an experience it is easy to be tOo optomistic yet the only possible con- clusiOn is that such en— counters are extremely valuable from the personal, the Church, the University{ and the Canadian point of

QUESTION: Why is there an added charge at Xmas which is not in the calendar?
ANSWER: This matter was dealt with quite effec— tively by Bob Gray's
letter circulated to stu— dents and published of late in the Cadre. Basically, benefits have increased and so have costs. This ’ occurred last summer and failed to be set out in
the calendar before it
was published. Therefore, the Business Office in a fit of conscience thought it unfair to charge you at registration a fee that you had no warning of. Thus, the extra $3 from Canadian Students and $8 from non- resident students.
