Students Prepare Their Orin Brief 0n Aims Objectives On Saturday, Feb.8th, ' a small but energetic ,r group of students met to discuss the Aims_and Obj jectives of U.P.E.I. Well, there.we sat in the Conferencecroom of the Islander Mord? Hotel from 9.30am until 5pm., with an hour break for lunch.' Basically this small group of 14 were_ tring to put together a number of recommendau tions to be presented to the Senate Committee on Aims and Objectives by the end of February. .Some of the propos- student paper library where we can check bibliographies and papers of students ‘ already having taken a particular course. This could be an important aid in our_ learning processes. These and count- less other subjects were thrown about (fig— uratively speaking) and will be written up in a coherent fashion as the students desires of E;§;§LIL Granted, only ‘14 of us were at the -r meeting, but last fall many of these ideas came out from the meetings in Duffy and the Barn. If you don't like the idea of a "select few" expressing what we feel is important to the functioning of our school, SAY SOMETHING!

Well this'could be done by.having univ—t ersity students tutor. local elementary and secondary school kids and by offering exten- sion courses more relev— ent to the people of P.E.I. eg: Small Busi-' neSS Management 101. 2) The question of ' Tenure.
