     hope the week will foster a sense of pride on the part of 
     
     the Canadian public .in the notable accomplishments of our 
     
     universities. The future well-being of our 'country is 
     
     inextricably tied, to the health of our higher education 
     
     institutions. The economic and social "development of our 
     
     society over the paSt several decades was due in large 
     
     measure to work that began on our university campuses. We 
     
     want to remind the public that the universities are an 
     
     essential part of our community." Most NUW activities will 
     
     take place on individual university campuses. Costs will be 
     
     kept to (a minumum by re-scheduling exhibits, public 
     
     lectures,” open .houses and other events that might normally 
     
     be held at other times in the year, to coincide with the 
     
     Week. The four regional and provincial university 
     
     associations will coordinate cooperative events within their 
     
     jurisdictions and, with the AUCC, will plan Canada—wide 
     
     activities.- .
