f'FIC E O F THE PRESIDENT

The year 1968-69 at Loyola brought an increase both in faculty and in students. Student numbers grew from 3108 in 1967-68 to 3680 in the year under review. 52 professors were added to the staff, making a total of 267 teachers. A good start was made towards the setting up of a Department of Interdisciplinary Studies. A course entitled 11 Social Change 11 was well attended and was participated in by a great number of professors from various disciplines. As the Academic Vice-President's report points out, faculty members carried on significant research, some of our students received important scholarships and many of them intend to go on to graduate work. The Senate Committee on Visiting Lecturers brought to the campus a number of interesting and important speakers whose learned contributions en­riched the intellectual life of the campus.

An issue of General Debentures of the College realized $5,476,000 so that we were able to eliminate our capital indebtedness up to the end of June 1968. Nevertheless, we continued to have press­ing financial problems which made it difficult for us to realize all of our projects for the improvement of equipment, for much needed renovations and for increasing our store of books. The realization of some special projects had to be postponed and our planning for the future was necessarily limited by this financial uncertainty.

The Faculty of Arts continued to be the largest of our four facult ies, with a total of some 2000 students, an increase of 24% over the previous year. The report of the Acting Dean of Arts describes satisfactory growth in most departments. Much time was spent in pre­parations for the introduction of the first- arid second-year collegial programs (CEGEPs), the first of which was scheduled to be introduced in September 1969. After many years of devoted work, Fr. Gerald MacGuigan, S.J., retired as Dean of the Faculty and was succeeded by Dr. Michael Blanar as Acting Dean.

Page 7: President's Report - Concordia

Good reports have come in from the Faculty of Commerce which once again had a very active (ommerce Student Association which made important contributions to life on the campus.

The Faculty of Engineering reports a nearly 60% higher enrollment in the first year over that of 1967-68.

The Faculty of Science also reports a 9% increase in enroll ~ent. Four new members joined the staff. There was a successful "Open House" for parents and friends. Several seminars on scientific subjects were held during the year.

It is a pleasure to be able to report that our Evening Division has gone from strength to strength in the year under review and is doing an admirable job of wor~ in making continuing education available to a large number of our fellow-citizens.

I am sorry to have to report that we were unable to give as muc h money to the Library as we consider it requires. The Library, which is at the heart of any university, has had to suffer from shortage of funds, although we have done our best to answer its most urqent needs. The Library's holdings did, nevertheless, increase to 121,000 volumes.

The student body itself went through a number of crises. Students devoted a great deal of time and energy to striving for more power, in particular for a greater student-faculty participation in all decision­ma kinq processes. It had a number of financial problems, partly because the student government had inherited a large deficit from its predecessors . No progress was made towards the realization of the much-needed Campus Centre. The Department of Student Services rendered a great variety of assistance to the student body in the areas of counselling, financial aid, health services, the chaplaincy, music and drama. The Department of Physical Education and Athletics, which comes under the Dean of Students, had a successful year and was in use day and night. A national drug conference organized by Loyola appears to have been remarkably successful. One result of this conference was a 90-page publication on druqs which has been widely read throughout the nation . Music and drama came under this Department and both activities were vigorously pursued.

I am happy to report here my most grateful appreciation of t he support given to me by the Board of Governors under the chairmanship of The Honourable Mr. Justice Paul C. Casey. The loyal and devoted services of these men throug hout the year have made my problems, particularly in the area of finance, much easier to bear and their counsel has been of the greatest value to the College.

Page 8: President's Report - Concordia

In summary, the academic year 1968-69, while not a vintage one, recorded steady growth in almost all areas. Our main problems were financial. It became increasingly clear during the course of 1968-69 that the uncertainties of our financial resources, both governmental and private, made planning for t he future precarious and perplexing and brought into sharp focus the question of where we were going and how we could get there.

Patrick G. Malone, S.J.

ACADEMIC VICE-PRESIDENT

The 1968-1969 academic year saw a further increase in the size of faculty as a result of the continued increase in student registrations. The full-time student population grew from 3,108 in 1967-1968 to 3,680 in 1968-1969. Full-time faculty was increased by 52 professors, at all ranks, to a total of 267 to meet the academic needs of this increased student body. In addition to regular teaching loads for day students, many full-time faculty members accepted additional teaching responsi­bilities for courses offered to the 5,300 part-time students registered in the winter and surrrner sessions of the Evening Division.

New interdisciplinary courses were developed throughout the year along with an increase in courses for cross-listing between complementary departments. Preparation was made by each faculty for the curriculum of the Collegial program being introduced in September 1969. Loyola, along with other universities in the Province of Quebec, has agreed to co-operate with the provincial government by offering academic courses parallel to those being offered in the CEGEPs until additional English CEGEPs are established. The parallel program will be phased in with the introduction of the first year of a two-year, pre-university course in September 1969. The second year will be offered in 1970. It is expected to phase the Collegial program out by 1972. At that time, Loyola will offer only three-year university programs leading to Bachelor's degrees. The pre-requisite for entry into these degree courses will be successful completion of the two-year, pre-university program.

Faculty members have continued their study and research. Many have published their findings and have achieved special recognition and awards.

Students have continued to receive awards recogn1z1ng their academic achievements and an increasing number of graduating students are continuing their education through graduate pro9rams.

Loyola has been honoured by a wide variety of distinguished scholars and speakers who have visited the campus to give lectures and participate in seminars and conferences.

FINANCIAL

The Financial Statements and Auditors' Report for the year ending June 30, 1969 will be found in the following pages. Comments on the financial picture appear below.

Capital Account

General Debentures of the College were issued to an aggregate amount of $5,600,000. This Issue realized $5,476,000. The Issue was in virtue of the Universities Investments Act. The Lieutenant-Governor of the Province of Quebec, by order-in-council, authorized the Minister of Finance to pay out of the consolidated fund of the Province of Quebec, the principal of the General Debentures as well as the interest, when same be­comes due and payable.

This Issue not only eliminated the capital indebtedness of the College up to June 30, 1968, but also covered commitments to projects already under­taken at that date. It also provided for additional capital expenditures for the academic year 1968-69 of some $700,000 for renovations, books, and academic and general equipment.

The net amount made available for capital expenditures by Loyola's Development Fund was $362,028.

Because of lack of funds as at June 30, 1969, the College was unable to approve equipment and renovation requests in the order of $2,000,000.

Operating Account

The Government of Quebec indicated that, for the year 1968-69, a special grant, in addition to the statutory grant, would be made available to the College to cover the operating deficit of $565,000. Income was $5,911,251 and expenses were $6,476,522.

SOURCE AND APPLICATION OF FUNDS SUMMARY Funds were applied to:

Decrease Working Capital Deficiency $4,279,236 Improve and purchase furniture, equipment

and library books (1968-69 and 1969-70 projects) 776,673 Excess of operating expenditures over income 565,271 Interest on Loans 243,737 Mortgage Payable 2,948 $5,867,865

Sources of funds were: Capital Grant from Province of Quebec (net

realized from sale of bonds) Transfers from Loyola Development Fund Scholarship Fund Donation

5,475,837 362,028 30,000 $5,867,865

The various reports that follow are for administrative departments which support academic operations and assist in College development.

PHYSICAL SERVICES

Increasing enrollment and continual growth of the College have naturally resulted in expansion of the physical plant. As a consequence, the functions of the Physical Services Department have multiplied during the year 1968-69.

The Maintenance Staff, including office employees, numbers 39. There are 64 cleaners who look after 21 buildings. The five trade shops -plumbing, electrical, painting, carpentry and mechanical - provide regular maintenance of buildings, equipment and vehicles and also attend to alterations, renovations, conversions, installations, demolitions and rebuilding. From July 1 to April 30, 3,900 work orders were processed. This department also provides part-time work for students, especially during the summer months, wherever possible.

The Cleaning Staff are responsible for the housekeeping of all buildings. Their work includes cleaning and maintenance of all floors, walls and ceilings, waste pick-up and short-haul moving of furniture and equipment. They likewise arrange the physical set-up for special events and gather­ings.

The Grounds Staff, in addition to snow-removal and maintenance of all hard-standing areas, such as parking lots, roads, walks, paths, etc., see to tidying up the grounds, planting of flowers, looking after trees, bushes, shrubbery and lawns, as well as removal and disposal of debris and unwanted materials.

PERSONNEL

For the year 1968-69 the average number of full-time employees at Loyola was 285 in comparison to 273 full-time employees of 1967-68.

Page 30: President's Report - Concordia

DATA PROCESSING CENTRE

The installation of a Univac 9200 computer in November, 1968 has significantly increased the Data Centre's computing capability, and resulted in more varied services available to its users.

Three staff members have received formal programming training and have participated in a comprehensive program of converting unit record procedures to the computer. While the great majority of work has en­compassed this conversion program, some modifications and additions to existing procedures have been accomplished, and more are planned for the immediate future.

A number of new applications in the College have been proposed for possible mechanization. The anticipated increase in systems and pro­gramming personnel will permit the necessary systems studies and ensuing implementation.

The present equipment complement consists of a tabulator, two key punch machines, one verifier, key punch interpreter, card sorter, reproducer, collator, forms detacher, and decollator.

PURCHASING

The duties of this department are primarily to negotiate for and buy all materials at a price and quality most beneficial to the College.

EVENTS CO ORDINATION

The Events Co-ordination Department was organized during the summer of 1968. Its main purpose is to approve, control, plan and co-ordinate all requests for facilities, and arrange services, when required, for events and functions taking place on campus throughout the year.

In addition, and partly because of the department's involvement in many events, the Events Co-ordinator has been mainly responsible for the operation of Food Services on campus.

27

Page 31: President's Report - Concordia

BOOKSTORE

The entire College corrmunity is served by this department which stocks all required texts, a wide range of supplies, and a self-service paper­back section of over six thousand titles.

The location of the Bookstore was changed to quarters in the Physical Services Building. These quarters have helped the operation greatly as they are much more spacious than the areas previously occupied in the basement of the Administration Building.

SECURITY

A new Director of Security, Mr. Leo Carroll, who had completed many years of service with the Montreal Police Force, was appointed this year.

MAIL DEPARTMENT

There are four full-time employees in this department who handle 3,000 to 4,000 pieces of incoming and outgoing mail each day. Ten to fifteen bags are delivered by the Post Office mail carriers daily. There is campus-wide distribution and pick-up of mail three times daily. There are about sixty different departments in the College serviced by the mail room.

PRINTING DEPARTMENT

The Printing Department renders continual service to the administrative and academic community by reproducing books, notes, examinations, schedules, bulletins, transcripts, letterheads and various forms.

The students in the Faculty of Arts have continued to be more active in college affairs than ever before, while still distinguishing themselves in the academic world, receiving recognition through fellowships, scholar­ships, assistantships, bursaries and gifts; and they continue to enter graduate and professional schools in ever increasing numbers. Student associations have been formed in most departments and many faculty-student departmental committees have been established, encouraging student parti­cipation at the departmental level.

Faculty members have also been busy with their teaching assignments as well as with lecturing, presenting papers, leading seminars, doing re­search consulting and writing. The work of the college continues only through committee-work, and members of the faculty have been contributing to the movement forward. Discussions in the establishment and continua­tion of good relations with corresponding departments in other colleges and universities have been continuing and have in some cases borne fruit.

The Centre of African Studies continues to prosper . Originally establish­ed by Senate in 1968 to co-ordinate all African teaching and research, the Centre in 1968-69 became the first Canadian university to offer a credit course in Swahili, while two members wrote a manual on the teaching of Swahili. At present, there are five Loyola 9raduates servinn with CllSO (Canadian llniversity Students nverseas) in .Africa.

The Department of Conmunication Arts has added two full lab courses to its major, while two other labs were opened but enrollment was by invitation only and the courses were additional to the regular course load. The Department inaugurated three interdisciplinary courses bringing together ColTlllunication Arts, Sociology and Psychology. During Founder's Week, the Department sponsored an "open house" which gave faculty members and students the opportunity of displaying their work to the public. The Revue Theatre screened the better of the student films. Faculty members, in addition to performing their regular duties, also hosted TV programs, exhibited their artistic creations, were consulted and wrote.

The Department of Economics has increased its requirements for Majors and Honours to eight and nine courses respectively. It also sponsored its Fourth Annual Symposium on Economics whose topic was "Poverty" and which attracted participants from various universities as well as from the United Steelworkers of America, several federal and provincial departments, and the Canadian Catholic Conference. The Economics Honours Society continues to flourish, and to extend invitations to outstanding speakers. The Department intends to introduce a joint major in Economics-Pol;tical Science in 1969-70.

Page 34: President's Report - Concordia

The Department of English sponsored its annual Lahey Lecture for 1968, given by Dr. Carl Hovde, Dean of Columbia College, on "The Exultant Style in American Literature." There were also poetry readings and a series of faculty readings and colloquia. The English Students Association continued to function, receiving good co-operation and encouragement from both faculty members of the department and the student members. The Department inaugurated a most successful counsel­ling and pre-registration program for all Honours and Majors students for 1969-70.

The Department of French Studies ended the year with the appointment of Dr. Gaston Laurion as Chairman to succeed Dr. Ars~ne Lauzi~re who is on sabbatical. There was an increase of student enrollment of 11% over 1967-68 in all French sections, parallelled by a similar increase in the number of literature courses offered. This past academic year also saw the introduction of French 350, a drama workshop in which the parti­cipating students enacted several French plays, all under the direction of Dr. P. Toupin and Professors Catry and Truchon.

The Department of History, during the past year, introduced new courses on China, Russia, Modern Italy, the American South and World War I, while members of the Department continued their scholarly pursuits, in­cluding Dr. D. Savage as editor of The Canadian Journal of African Studies and Prof. C. H. Schlacks as editor of Canadian Slavic Studies. Dr. David O'Brien organized and chaired a series of meetings, a faculty seminar on North American Catholicism in which professors from many disciplines and with diverse backgrounds participated.

The Department of Modern Languages (Italian, Spanish, German and Russian) began the year with an expanded faculty, including a new departmental chainnan, and an expanded curricula which included new additions of Russian and Linguistics, and ended the year not only with its first five graduates, (four Spanish majors and one double major in Spanish-Italian) but also with a new chairman, Dr. Carlo Fonda. The Department was also pleased that six of its students participated in the Canadian-German Exchange, spending three months in Germany. The student department sponsored a vernissage for Friedhelm Lach with the German Consul General in attendance; a visit by Giuseppe Ungarette, the famous Italian poet; a book presentation from the Italian Cultural Centre by the Consul of Italy, Dr. Gian Piere Nut~, a visit of the Technical State University Choir of Santiago (Chile); and a play in Spanish staged by the students in the Spanish section. The Department has also undertaken to prepare tests in the various languages in anticipation of the coming academic year and the impending introduction of the First-Year of the Five-Year Program.

The Department of Political Science took the year to consolidate the department's offerings, especially its Honours program. It introduced a new Honours seminar which includes a general oral comprehensive examination before the whole Department, required by all graduating students with an Honours B.A. in Political Science. The Department also

31

Page 35: President's Report - Concordia

continued to invite and sponsor public lecturers of outstanding ability and wide public interest, including Rev. James Fleck, S.J., Dr. Eleanor Dulles, Dr. Maria Falco and Mr. Paul Jureidini.

Meanwhile, the Department of Psychology continued its expansion and graduated sixty-four students with majors in Psychology. It ended the year with a new chainnan, Dr. John Lavery; the fonner chainnan, Dr. V. Maheux, will remain in the Department. The Department sponsored the First Inter-Disciplinary Symposium on Personality for Quebec colleges and universities which was organized by the Psychology Club of Loyola and co-chaired by the Club's president, J.P. Laroche, and Dr. H. W. Ladd. Faculty members continued their academic work and scholarly pursuits, recognized through honorary appointments as well as with grants.

One of the fast,st growing departments is the Department of Sociology, as indicated in the following chart :

The spirit in the Department is ebulJient and members of the faculty are active in interdisciplinary studies, and in experimentation in teaching methods and curriculum. An honours programme has already been approved by Senate and will be introduced in September 1969.

The Department of Theology once again underwrote the annual Colloquium of Scholars (the Fifth), which is sponsored by the Contemporary Theology Institute, held at Loyola, and directed by Rev. Elmer O'Brien, S.J. The topic was : the theological ramifications of the "New Refonnation 11 and included among the discussants Dr. John MacQuarrie, (Union Theological Seminary); Dr. Luther Adams (Harvard): Dr. Richard L. Rubinstein (Pittsburgh); and Rev. Dr. Roderick A. MacKenzie, S.J. (Pontifical Biblical Institute, Roma). It also sponsored a Jewish-Christian Dialogue entitled : "Jewish-Christian Relations-Caricature and Realities." The Department continued to build better liaison and co-operation with other universities while furthering its interest in the continuing education of religious teachers in the Montreal area.

The Department of Interdisciplinary Studies, under the chainnanship of the Dean of Arts, offered only one credit course, "Social Change", which brought together under one course title some twenty-four professors of various disciplines. More courses will be offered in the coming year including Anatomy of Arts, Music, the Canadian Novel, and a "Thinking" course.

The program of studies is designed in such a way that only two courses will be obligatory in each year, one English and one French, while the three remaining ones (5 full courses or their equivalent will be re-quired in each of the two years) will be options. Students will be free to choose one from a cluster including Mathematics, Natural Science and Engineering, and two from the Humanities cluster {Philosophy, Classics, History, Religious Humanism, Fine Arts, Interdisciplinary Studies), the Modern Languages and Literature cluster {Italian, German, Russian, Spanish, English, French), and the Social Science cluster {Economics, Psychology, Political Science, Sociology). Within most of these areas, departments will offer several options under each of the listings. The purpose of this program is to provide the student with as wide a background as possible, offering as many opportunities to explore and experience these various disciplines, and to help him make a wiser choice, when the time comes, of his own more specialized area.

The enthusiasm and energy with which some departments and many faculty members met the prospect of the Five-Year Collegial program and Inter­disciplinary Studies was heartening, and plans are continuing to be drawn in preparation for more improvements. Co-operation, trust and good-will must be expected from all - administration, faculty, and students - if the Faculty of Arts is to progress forward and upward.

Finally, the Faculty of Arts extends its heartfelt thanks to the out­going Dean of Arts, Rev. Gerald MacGuigan, S.J., who has toiled and worried about the Faculty for several years and who in the coming year will be on sabbatical leave. The appointment of Dr. Michael Blanar as Acting Dean of Arts was announced in the latter part of June.

DEAN OF THE FACULTY OF COMMERCE

OF MONTREAL

The academic year 1968-69 indicated further expansion in the Faculty of Commerce. An increasing number of students have chosen Business Administration as their major although there is still a strong interest in Accountancy and Economics. The faculty is facing the challenge of CEGEPs with great optimism and a feeling that the five-year program at the university will raise academic standards, broaden the vista of student interests and produce a more mature graduate.

PERSONNEL

Accountancy Department: Prof. J. R. Hanrahan, Acting Chairman. During the course of the year, Prof. A. Vasilkioti was added to the staff of the Accountancy Department. At the present time there are five full­time professors and one lecturer in the Day Division. Prof. R. L. McGraw, who was formerly Chairman of the Accountancy Department, asked to be relieved of the Chairmanship at the beginning of January 1969 in order to pursue research projects. - erof. J. R. Hanrahan was appointed Acting Chairman with the intention of co-ordinating the Accounting and Business Administration programs.

Business Administration Department: Prof. J. R. Hanrahan, Chairman. Professors J. Norris and B. English were hired during the course of the year to support the expanded program in Quantitative Analysis, Marketing and Operations Research. There are seven full-time faculty members in this Department.

ACADEMIC POLICY

The Faculty of Conmerce has decided to implement a qualitative major in place of a quantitative one in all disciplines effective for students graduating in 1971. This would imply that unless a student obtains a pre-determined average during his academic years at Loyola, he will only receive a general degree and that those who show full qualification by obtaining better than average results will be recog­nized by a major or honours in their discipline. It is hoped that this new policy will encourage students to put more effort into their studies.

CURRICULUM

Recognizing new techniques and ideas in the field of Commerce, Loyola has moved with other progressive universities to modtfy the curriculum as

34

Page 38: President's Report - Concordia

required by the changing times and the requests of students. The Accounting 101 course was divided into six sections while those in Accounting 202 and 203 were also divided into four and two sections respectively; thus all classes contained less than forty students and allowed for better communication between faculty and students. In addition, tutorial sessions were continued although this was hampered because of lack of space. An extra session of Business 207 was fonned, Accounting 202 was restructured and Business 307 and 308 were sub­stituted for Maths 202 and 203 .

In 1968-69 enrollment increased by 15% over the previous year. This was comparable to the increase in 1967-68.

Evening Division

The Faculty of Commerce has recognized the need for continuing educa­tion among those who are in the business world an~ ~lve not nad the opportunity to participate in university programs. A diploma course in Business and Accounting was therefore inaugurated in the Evening Division which will allow students who have not taken the complete Commerce pro­gram to obtain recognition in these two disciplines. This new diploma course will be in addition to the majors program in Accounting, Business Administration and Economics. Students who obtain a diploma can use these credits toward the completion of a degree in the Faculty.

There were 383 students registered in the Faculty of Commerce Evening Division in 1968-69 compared with 324 in 1967-68 and 282 in 1966-67.

FACULTY OF ENGINEERING

OF MONTREAL

Enrollment in the first year was nearly 60% higher than that of 1967-68. 83% of all students were promoted, of whom 75% had no conditions. 50% of all students enrolled in the faculty achieved an average of over 65%.

The Engineering Undergraduate Society and the Loyola Chapter of the Engineering Institute of Canada were both active during the year. Special seminars were conducted to acquaint students with the course options open to them in the upper years.

Two faculty members, Professors Kaufman and Krantzberg, were on leave of absence and will return for the 1969-70 academic year. Mr. Victor Stefanovic joined the faculty as a full-time lecturer and Mr. M. Krashinsky left to pursue doctoral studies at Yale.

Laboratory facilities have been effectively reorganized and it is hoped to develop a grouping of offices in one area.

Canadian Aviation Electronics generously contributed an Analogue Computer valued at approximately $20,000.

The program included all four years of the new curriculum with third­and fourth-year students registered in six of the seven options. A Collegial program has been prepared and will be offered for the first time in September 1969.

Page 42: President's Report - Concordia

CURRICULUM

The phasing-out of the Biology-Chemistry major has had to be delayed because the new Biology major could not be initiated in the current year.

Some work has been done by the Science Faculty on planning the new curriculum needed to allow for the new College I and College II years on the campus, starting 1969-1970 - (for College I).

FACULTY

There were four new members added in 1969-70. These included Dr. K.K. Mukherji in the Geo-Technical Sciences, and Doctors T.A. Kovats, W.E. Pinson and C.S. Kalman in Physics. Father W. Lone, S.J. has been transferred from Loyola to St. Mary's University, Halifax. Dr. T. Nogrady has returned from sabbatical leave spent at Cambridge University. Dr. H.K. Govil received his Ph.D. from the University of Montreal and has been promoted to assistant professor. Drs. G.J. Trudel and M. Doughty were promoted from assistant to associate professors.

SPECIAL ACTIVITIES OF STUDENTS AND STAFF

Professor Bell of McGill University gave talks to the Physics Department on Topics in Modern Physics. The students helped with the "Open House" organized by the Science Faculty. A special session, chaired by Dr. R.H. Zienius, was held at Loyola for the "Analytical Chemistry Division of the Chemical Institute of Canada". Under the Chainnanship of Dr. R.H. Zienius, a Seminar on Sephadex gel Filtration was held at Loyola May 5th and 6th, 1969, co-sponsored by Loyola and Pharmacia (Canada) Ltd.

EVENING DIVISION OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR

This report covers the 1968 Su11111er Session and the 1968-69 Winter Session.

The most outstanding development during the past year was the sudden and substantial increase in enrollment. The following charts will illustrate the expansion for each session compared to the corresponding session in 1967 and 1967-68.

SUMMER SESSION WINTER SESSION

1967 1968 Increase 1967-68 1968-69 Increase

Students 1154 1734 50% 2246 3574 59% Courses 73 79 4% 122 165 35% Graduates 32 47 47% 28 56 100% Day Students 149 276 80% 118 225 90%

The increase in registration, although fonnidable, has not reached a critical point. In future years, the rate of growth may diminish, but a gradual increase in enrollment may be expected. It is realized that numbers are only one indication of progress. All efforts are being made to maintain the academic excellence which the students expect.

It is significant to note that 225 day students attended courses during the Winter Session 1968-69. These students registered for courses in the Evening Division as part of their day program and did not pay fees to the Evening Division. The increasing number of day students taki_ng courses in the evening allows for the offering of a greater variety of courses than in previous years.

As a result of a resolution passed by the Evening Division Co11111ittee after questionnaires were sent to Department Chainnen, classes were scheduled once a week during the Winter Session.

It is estimated that with this new schedule approximately 7,000 students can be accommodated in the available classrooms and labs. Because some flexibility must be maintained in classroom scheduling, it is estimated that the Evening Division operated at approximately 60% of its potential capacity during the Summer Session.

40

Page 44: President's Report - Concordia

During the 1968-69 Winter Session, a program leading a Bachelor of Arts with a Major in History was introduced. Majors in English, French, Philosophy, Psychology and Sociology for the 1969-70 Session will be introduced. The non-degree course, The Anatomy of Art, was approved as an elective in Arts by the Senate. Off-campus courses were offered for the first time. Courses in Sociology and Psychology were offered at the School of Nursing, St. Mary's Hospital and a course in Theology for teachers was conducted at Marymount High School in co-operation with the Montreal Catholic School Commission. The Biology concentration in the Faculty of Science was suspended due to the lack of facilities and the apparent inability to schedule the necessary courses. The students were notified of this decision in February. On the basis of the number of enquiries that have been received in the Evening Division office, the introduction of a new concentration in Biology should be seriously considered.

A number of non-degree courses have been highly successful. A second course in Library Science was introduced and the Evening Division is becoming well known as the only institution in the area offering such a program. Other non-degree courses which were well received include: How to Invest Your Money in Stocks and Bonds, scheduled in co-operation with the Investment Dealers Association of Canada,and The Technical and Psychological Aspects of Colour, offered in co-operation with the Society of Paint Technology.

Financial assistance in the form of loans, grants and scholarships was provided by the Evening Division Students' Council Scholarship Fund. A total of $3,015.00 was provided to students who requested assistance. The Scholarship Fund is administered by the Director of the Evening Division through a committee composed of students, full and part-time faculty members and representatives from the Student Services office. All revenues of the Fund are obtained through student contributions.

OFFICE OF THE REGISTRAR

OF MONTREAL

Applications for admission to Loyola College for the 1968-69 academic year increased from 3,614 to 4,679 representing a 34% increase over the previous year.

The early successful completion of the high school visits programme by Admissions Office Personnel and the increased number of schools visited were viewed as primary contributing factors.

The total number of students registered for the 1968-69 academic year increased by 18% over the previous year, bringing the full-time day school enrollment to an all time high of 3,680 students.

To ensure accuracy in registration data, the Records Office with the co-operation of the Data Processing Centre, issued a Verification of Registration Form to all students, requesting that the information on registration contained therein be verified by each student. The success of this venture was such as to warrant further exploration in this area.

Statistics included in this Report

1) Geographical breakdown by faculty and year - 1968-69.

2) Total enrollment breakdown by year and faculty - 1968-69.

3) A breakdown of upperclass students by year, faculty and programme of studies - 1968-69.

Ut~RGES P. VANIER LIBRARY LOYOLA COLLEGE MONTREAL. 28 CANADA

OFFICE OF THE

LIBRARIAN

GROWTH OF THE COLLECTION

The collection in 1968-69 increased to nearly 121,000 volumes and thus Loyola of Montreal, for the first time, met the minimum standard for Canadian and U.S. College Libraries. The volume per student ratio also increased from 28 to 33. The number of additional volumes made available for use amounted to approximately 15,800 volumes. This includes previously accessioned material which had been included in the collection more than six years ago but had not been completely processed.

During the academic year 1968-69, acquisitions and gifts amounted to approximately 13,000 volumes. This is a decrease in the rate of growth of about 9%, or 1,500 volumes, compared with the 14,500 volumes in the year 1967-68. Due to increased book prices and a restricted book budget the actual number of new books processed in 1968-69 was less than in either of the two previous years.

PUBLIC SERVICES

(a) ORIENTATION PROGRAM

The orientation program of the previous years continued. The Reference Department conducted specialized seminars on library research for upper class students both in the day and evening divisions. The new revised Library Handbook proved to be useful for both students and faculty.

(b) DISCIPLINE

Student discipline continued to be only 11 tolerable 11•

Around exam time it became necessary to employ an additional guard on account of the tense atmosphere. Further shelving alterations in the stack area will be made during the summer to reduce the noise level. The suspension of library privileges in disciplinary cases will continue. However, as long as a large number of lectures and meetings are held in the library, it is difficult to maintain a "library atmosphere".

49

Page 53: President's Report - Concordia

(c) ATTENDANCE - EXTENSION OF SERVICES

During the school year the average monthly attendance showed an increase of 9%, from 67,690 to 73,508. Commencing February 9, 1969 the library opened on Sundays from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. until the end of the academic year. An average attendance of 373 students was maintained for this period.

(d) CIRCULATION DEPARTMENT

Compared with the previous year, circulation increased 17% from 63,000 books in 1967-68 to 74,000 books in 1968-69. The average book circulation per student decreased slightly from 20.0 in 1967-68 to 19.8 in 1968-69. Due to shortage of staff, the Department continued to experience considerable difficulties during the year. Members of other departments have been assigned to circula­tion duties as an emergency measure in order to keep up with the increase in circulation and shelving.

(e) REFERENCE DEPARTMENT

During the academic year the Department extended its services to include the administration of the newly established Film Library. The Department continued to give advanced seminars on library research to upper class students. The Department assembled displays on the following

TECHNICAL SERVICES

(a) ORDER DEPARTMENT

All orders requested by the faculty, in proportion to the available funds, have been sent out to the dealers.

(b) CATALOGUING DEPARTMENT

Compared with the previous year, the number of volumes catalogued in 1968-69 decreased 12% to 15,800 volumes. The reason for this is that the Department provided the largest number of man hours to maintain and extend the circulation services in the evening and on Saturday and Sunday. The classification of the D'Arcy McGee Collection has been completed and preparations are being made to classify the recently acquired Masonic collection.

(c) SERIALS DEPARTMENT

During the year the Department published an Alphabetical List of Serials in the Georges P. Vanier Library and in the DrulllllOnd Science Library. Serials holdings to August 1968. The list has been distributed to all faculty members.

( d) BINDING

Over 3,300 serials have been bound in 1968-69, an increase of 10% over the previous year.

SCIENCE LIBRARY

GIFTS

The critical shortage of study and shelf space is still a problem. Back issues of serials must be continually trans­ferred to the Vanier Library where they occupy much needed shelf space.

A considerable number of valuable gifts were received by the library in 1968-69. During this period of economy, our book collection has been augmented greatly through the generosity of many liberal donors. A few worthy of mention are the following:

CHAIRMAN OF THE LIBRARY BOARD

A number of factors combined during the year to make it difficult for the Library Board to hold anything more than irregular and intennittent meetings. Perhaps the most significant of those factors was the reduction of the Library book acquisition budget from the original amount requested to the eventual $140,000 allocated. Moreover, the tightness and overlapping in the professors' schedules, resulting in part from their teaching commitments plus the other demands made upon their time generated by the 11 turbulence 11 of the recent year, made it impossible to locate a single hour or two during the week when all or most of the Library Board members could attend a fonnally called meeting. There might also have been among the members the prevailing notion that, since the monies normally allocated to the Library had been cut back or eliminated for the current year, there were no substantive decisions to be made. Some of the meetings called were attended by barely a quorum and others by less than a quorum.

Some decisions were made when a quorum was present at the meetings. For example, $140,000 for the purchase of books was allocated among the departments expeditiously and amicably in less than a full meeting. A general amnesty on outstanding books held by students was declared. Toward the end of the year, the Board approved the extension of Library hours on week nights and the opening of the Library on Sundays.

During some of the officially constituted meetings and those in which a quorum was not present, a number of other "Library problems" were dis­cussed. Among them were :

a) the employment of students as part-time members of the Library staff;

b} the matter of student discipline and noise in the Library;

c) the responsibilities of the Library Board in matters pertaining to the internal operation of the Library itself.

Within the Board, the range of opinions in these matters and others was wide and there was little indication of any consensus among them. In view of the unanswered questions that Board members have con­cerning the Library relative to the larger Loyola academic community, and indeed in the problem of formulating questions that would make a contribution toward a solution of Loyola's Library problems and of the problems of the Library itself, the following are in need of intensive study and resolution :

54

Page 58: President's Report - Concordia

1. The budget for the purchase of books. It would seem that the Library needs a considerably larger amount of money whose expenditure is carefully supervised to secure optimum resources.

2. A reappraisal of the Library administration policy concerning the use of part-time student employees.

3. The utility of the statistics currently circulated by the Library.

4. A careful preparation by Library officials of an updated catalogue of job descriptions for all current Library personnel which would include estimates of the percentage of the total time that each position allocates to its several functions, with planned periodic reviews of the positions and of the people who occupy them to determine what changes, if any, are needed, might serve as the beginning point for a streamlining of the Library.

5. The inclusion of the Chairman of the Library Board and the Librarian himself as ex-officio, non-voting Senate members.

DIVISION OF STUDENT SERVICES

DEAN OF STUDENTS

The most significant aspect of the past year was the growth in student power. S.D.S., although not fully operative, was a major part of the student government and awareness. Graham Nevin, who began a brilliant career as student president, saw that career come to a sudden end when the Board of Directors voted for his dismissal during the summer. From that point on, the new student president, Charles MacDougall, and his Board of Directors, spoke with almost one voice, presenting clearly articulated desires reflecting faculty participation in no small degree. The ultimate aims were greater student-faculty participation in all decision-making processes. The charismatic word was 11 democracy 11 which pertained to structure of Senate, Board of Governors and faculty councils. Two overr1ding themes were at work. Students should possess more power in proportion to their number - a direct analogy to the political systems found in civil political elections, namely, one student - one vote; 4,000 second-rate brains collectively equal one first-rate mind. The second overriding theme was that the Board. of Governors, basically composed of successful business entrepreneurs, had little or nothing to contribute to the University community.

Tactics bordered on the violent, carried psychedelic suggestions of instant reform, moved towards power confrontations but never seriously reached the level of overt violence. Two factors were responsible. The outrageous d~bacle at Sir George Williams University which generated enormous right wing reaction, and secondly the liberal faculty and student groups were quite outspoken, taking leadership away from the small handful of anarchists. It would be nice to say that the College's progressive spirit, broadminded and liberal attitudes frustrated sit-ins and seizures, but the history of American colleges shows that good sense, cunning and political involvement and dialogue do not mitigate student violence.

The Student Government's most difficult area was financial, and if they did not succeed in retiring fonner debts, they at least slowed down the horrendous involvement in financial disasters. This was due to an austerity program and to the use of a full-time financial assistant, Mr. Maguire.

The Student Union still remains a plan, due to the lack of finances not only on behalf of Loyola College, but also of the Quebec Government.

56

Page 60: President's Report - Concordia

The general area of Student Services became actively involved in a national drug conference sponsored and organized by Loyola College. It was an enormously successful venture due to the efforts of the entire department and in particular the Dean of Men. Great gratitude is also owing to the various groups responsible for its financing. The effort resulted in a 90-page publication which was widely sought across Canada.

Two new additions to the area were the Music Director, Dr. T. Legrady, who brought about an increase in student musical involvement and a sharper administration of the area, and Mr. B. Fortune, Drama Director, who served as guide, director and supervisor of this para-academic area.

The Health Department witnessed an increase in staff, a very large increase in corrmunity involvement, and proved to be one of our most successful areas.

Our on-campus housing, of both men and women, experienced some changes in staff and regulations. A great deal of confusion arose concerning the meaning of law and order and in particular the concept of power. It is hoped that these buildings will remain as educational adjuncts in the future.

Athletics, under the capable leadership of Mr. E. Enos, produced outstanding achievements, both on the inter-collegiate and intramural levels.

Mr. E. Steynor, of The Canada Manpower Centre, resigned for reasons of health and was replaced by Miss E. Allen. There was an incredible growth of activity in this area, particularly in exposing various disciplines to off-campus business ventures.

Fr. N. Konlup served as a very capable assistant to Fr. J. O'Neill in the Chaplain's area. Serious consideration was given to a fuller develop­ment of Loyola College's chapel. An architect has been at work and proposals will be soon forthcoming.

G. McDonough, S.J. Dean of Students

DEAN OF MEN

After eight months of preparation, faculty, students and administra­tive representatives from forty colleges and universities all across Canada participated in a national conference on student use and abuse of drugs sponsored by the Department of Student Services here at Loyola. Experts from all pertinent fields were present to discuss the most recent research and thinking on the use of hallucinogenic drugs by college age people. Over 8,000 copies of the Conference proceedings have been distributed all over Canada including some 3,000 copies on the Loyola Campus. Grants from the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Canada, the Federal Department of Health and Welfare, Canadian Student Affairs Association and Loyola made the Conference possible.

The Dean of Men chaired a faculty-student committee on the revision of both student regulations and disciplinary procedures. After eight months' work, the committee made its report which was subsequently approved by Senate. In essence the report recommended the creation of a Student Court (5 students, 1 faculty member and 1 administrator) to handle all disciplinary matters involving students as well as a sub­stantial decrease in the number of campus social regulations binding on students. Significantly, the rule prohibiting liquor on campus was modified to permit it at group events as well as in the residences under specified circumstances. Because of the need for better communication between the Department of Student Services and the rest of the Loyola Community, a Campus Handbook was designed to provide information on the services available to students as well as a clear definition of the regulations binding upon them. In addition, the handbook describes some of the structures of the Loyola administration as well as the functions which some of its offers perform.

A Leadership Programme was organized to provide interested first- and second-year students with the fundamentals of leadership theory and technique. After five two-hour seminars, the thirty participants spent two and a half days in a Human Relations Workshop in Ste. Adele under the direction of experienced faculty from the Centre for the Study of Advanced Social Sciences, Sir George Williams University. Follow-up studies of this Programme after two years have shown that participants have entered leadership positions at all levels of university life and have demonstrated unusual effectiveness in handling their roles.

As a non-voting member · of the LMSA Board of Directors and liaison officer between the College and student government, the Dean of Men devoted much of his time to consultation with student leaders. In keeping with the trend toward activism on the part of some students across the country, Loyola militants infiltrated student government

58

Page 62: President's Report - Concordia

at the highest levels. Even though demands to reform certain aspects of the institutions were made by the students, the negotiation process remained open and functioned well. Though confrontation and dis­ruption were threatened on occasion, none occurred at Loyola, thanks to the willingness of the administration and Senate to listen and act promptly where the suggested reforms were needed.

The Dean of Men served on several committees including the Student Life Committee of Senate, the sub-committee on Student Social Regulations and Judicial Procedures (Chainnan), Campus Centre Policy Board and Chairman - Campus Food Service Committee. He had administrative responsibility for Men's Housing, Health Services, Campus Centre and liaison with Canada Manpower Centre (Loyola).

From February on, the Dean of Men served as Acting Dean of Students in the absence of Fr. McDonough and assumed the responsibility of Dean of Students effective June 1, 1969.

ASSISTANT DEAN OF MEN

The Assistant Dean of Men, like all student development deans, is not only an administrator but also a counsellor. Exposure in a number of areas brings him to counselling, not only of the troubled, but of the academically successful who think of graduate work. After several years at Loyola, a few alumni considering such study also come in for consulta­tion.

He serves on several committees as an administrator . - parki_ng, campus improvements, fraternities and sororities - and served a year as treasurer of the Faculty Club.

He has acted as advisor to · the Interfraternity Council which grew spontaneously this year from four to six men's fraternities to fill the need for smaller groupings of students, to fill social needs, but also to fill a real educational purpose in providing a laboratory for learn­ing leadership and human relations.

In line with the trend in student personnel work to encourage advising across (the former) barrier of men vs. women, he has accepted the advisor­ship of the women's fraternities• Pan Hellenic Council.

He has been the advisor along with the Director of the Evening Division of the Evening Student~! Council which has expanded and restructured itself more adequately to represent nearly 4,000 student s in t he Evening Division. ·

As faculty secretary to the. Maroon and White Honour Society, he has worked closely with the outstanding students in this group to perpetuate a Loyola tradition of having some thirty men (and now women) available to represent the College well externally, as well as carrying on an internal program of interest within the institution.

He has activated a committee on career planning and placement to bri_ng together diverse members of the university who now work more closely in helping students, student leaders and faculty understand this non­academic problem which has so much application to academic success.

To bring faculty and alumni into the advising of student organization, the Assistant Dean of Men has sponsored meetings of the Alumni Inter­fraternity Council which is developing.

He has continued to encourage the participation of the Science and Engineering students in student government by his adv t~iTI~ of t nei r specialized faculty councils.

He continues as editor of the Newsletter of the Canadian Association of Student Affairs and as Associate Editor of the Journal of its umbrella group, the Canadian Association of University Student Personnel Services.

HINGSTON HALL

G. V. Uihlein Assistant Dean of Men

There were approximately 300 students living in residence during this year. This was an experimental year. Many different ideas were tried to see what could be done to make the residence a pleasanter place to live, and through this the opportunity to allow students to learn more about their fellow students.

In concrete terms, it is easy to see what we accomplished in residence this year. In attempting to allow people to develop their inter­personal relationships to the fullest, the artificial barriers which restricted these had to be removed. Rules were eliminated in the hope that the students would take the initiative to set up rules by which they should abide. The most significant advance was the fact that the students were at last allowed to determine their own policies in residence.

R. Eustace Dean of Residence

DEAN OF WOMEN

The female student enrollment was approximately 1,100. The women•s residence student enrollment was 95.

Apart from the growth in enrollment there was increased involvement in sororities, which now number three, an increased desire for greater participation in the athletic program, a special survey of women 1 s needs during Freshman Week, and a Women 1 s Career Programme.

The Dean of Women was also responsible as administrative liaison officer for the Drama Society, the Music Department, and various germane commit­tees.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES

(Miss) A. MacDonald Dean of Women

The Student Health Services again this year showed greatly increased utilization by the students with a 67% increase in visits over the previous academic year. As in previous years, those students living in residence and near the campus made the largest number of visits.

A psychiatrist, Dr. D.J. McClure, and a second physician, Dr. C. Lapointe, both on a part-time basis, have joined the health service staff. This has provided greatly increased services and makes it possible for a physician to be on campus portions of five days a week.

CHAPLAIN

It is difficult to give a refined definition of the role of a Chaplain. The Chaplain is the man on campus responsible for facilitating the ex­pression - the living out - of religious faith. This is done through the liturgy, seminars, group encounters, social involvement.

The presence of the Chaplain is important fo~ r~asons that are somewhat intangible. By his 11 presence 11 he bespeaks commitment to Faith, to Hope and to Charity. And it is to discuss these virtues that students are drawn to his office. Manv of the Chaplain's concerns .and pfforts, in these times, focus upon the fostering of Charity and Hope. spent with students in the Chaplain's office, on the campus, in the residence, at meetings and games. Today the Chaplain must move out of his office to where the student is, or he is no longer identified as one who knows what is going on and who is concerned.

The three Chaplains have made distinct efforts to attach themselves to various groups on campus ... student government, athletic teams, the residence committees, fraternities and sororities, Faculty Association, Faculty Club or cultural committees.

Counselling remains the prime consumer of the Chaplain's time. Much of his day is spent in individual counselling. More and more, however, he is becoming involved in group counselling of varying sorts ... whether as a member of a student committee or conducting a weekend get-togethe~

Our Sunday liturgy for the College Community Qas grown in popularity since it was begun two years ago. The Church is always overcrowded' with people representing a cross-section of our College Community and Alumni.

We feel that in future the Chaplains should try to involve themselves more with organizations in the Montreal community; we have much to offer them and we can learn much from them. Through our Sunday mass we have been able to clothe many poor children in the eastern downtown area of the city; students have collected, sorted and distributed clothing, and in some instances, money, to needy families. We have helped too with the Foster Child program and with our schools in India.

Perhaps the Chaplains have failed to facilitate ecumenical services; the other denominations on campus should be encouraged to use the facilities available at Loyola for their worship.

Considerable time has been spent with architects the past few months with a view to modernizing the Chapel. Our purpose is to make that area more functional for all communities on campus. We would like to make this space flexible enough and attractive to the various departments so that they will be able to express their religious beliefs in a manner corres­ponding to their talents. Both faculty and students have expressed much enthusiasm over the project.

J. O'Neill, S.J. Chaplain

FINANCIAL AID

All aspects of student Financial Aid are channelled through this Department.

With an increased reliance among students on Government assistance, the office has been growing by leaps and bounds. This year we saw 2,897 students from July to May 14th.

Government loans and bursaries were again greatly delayed. This increased the workload as many more students than previously had to be assisted with emergency loans and conditional bursaries to meet their financial obliga­tions to the College and their expenses in attending classes during the second semester.

All funds administered by this office were strained in meeting the un­precedented demand for assistance due to this delay. Thanks to the funds placed at our disposal by The Birks Family Foundation, The B'nai B'rith Hillel Foundation and the Canadian Council of Jewish Women, these requests for assistance were adequately met.

Loyola College also has a generous bursary fund which is administered by the Scholarship Committee. The Director, Financial Aid, as Executive Secretary of the Scholarship Committee, gathers pertinent information on bursary applicants to present to this Committee. As elsewhere in North America, it has become a generally accepted condition of College Bursary application that the student first apply to and accept maximum aid from Government sources before applying to the College.

This Department was responsible for checking the financial status of all foreign applicants before final acceptance. This is a tricky task as depositing money for the first year is all you can expect from any family. In the shaky financial climate of many countries this means tha~ some foreign upperclassmen have grave financial difficulties.

The Director, Financial Aid, is also the clearing-house for Student Accident Insurance and while this supposedly includes no paper work, in fact much advice is needed by many of the students in making claims.

The administrative arrangements for all Convocation Prizes and Medals are handled by this Department.

The Director, Financial Aid, as Executive Secretary of the Scholarship Committee, co-ordinates information on Scholarships as requested.

This year the Director attended the Computation School, sponsored by the C.E.E.B., and visited the Department of University Affairs ·in Toronto to obtain a fuller picture of the manner in which they assess a student's needs; particularly to make sure that our out-of-province students were receiving as much financial assistance as possible.

MUSIC DEPARTMENT

The Music Department of Loyola recorded its first year of accomplishment. The Department began with three aims in mind: 1) to arrange opportunities for vocal and instrumental talent, 2) to bring professional performers to the campus, and 3) to introduce those students who were interested to the rudiments of elementary Music Theory, Music Reading, Music Appreciation, and History.

The Calendar of Events of the Department was as follows :

September 22 and 29 November 29 December 8 December 15 February 4 February 25 March 7

March 30

Choral Society Concerts at Man and His World Symphonic Concert "The Hi ts of Johann Sebastian Bach 11

Loyola Band Concert Loyola Choir Concert Concert of the Canadian Forces Band "Pop Goes Loyola" concert of the Folk Society 11 Let 1 s Explore Music" Symphony Concert Choral Society Spring Concert

The Loyola Choral Society includes members of the student body, staff and faculty and some people from the neighborhood, and started the academic year with two successful Sunday performances at Man and His World.

The Brass Quintet which has already achieved near-professional performing level, performed several times at Man and His World, Place Ville Marie, etc.

The Clarinet Quintet was formed last year, but it is now practising under the direction of Mr. Rzepus, and it is hoped will soon reach the level of excellence of their Brass counterparts.

The Folk Society, in which the most advanced talent at Loyola participates, gave an exceptionally successful concert.

For the first time in the history of Loyola there was enormous support from the Musicians• Guild of Montreal, who furnished salaries on two occasions for a 24-piece professional orchestra, composed mainly of musicians from the Montreal Symphony. Dr. Legrady conducted one concert, which included the Choral Society, and Mr. Rzepus conducted the second concert, 11 Let 1 s Explore Music", with guest artist Tadea Pylko. There was also a free concert presenting the Canadian Forces Band under the direction of Captain Charles Villeneuve.

Dr. Legrady conducted a non-credit course with an average of ten students a week participating.

DRAMA

The Drama Director assumed his office in September 1968. He acted as advisor to the Drama Society on financial, constitutional and other matters. When he first assumed office the Drama Society consisted of approximately 15 active members. The Constitution and power lines were rather vague. The Drama Director with the two executives of the Drama Society laid out a year's program of productions and workshops, and tried to organize as they went along. The Drama Director's recommendations to the Drama Society call for decentralization of authority and a clarifica­tion of the role of the Drama Society and its executive. He has emphasized the need of a constitution, an enlarged executive and a clear line of authority. These recommendations have been accepted by the present executive and are in the process of being implemented. By the end of the year there were approximately 100 active members in the Drama Society.

Workshops were organized in acting (beginning and advanced), playwriting, directing and makeup theory and application. Approximately 91 students enrolled in these workshops. The directing workshop was a basic seminar in practical problems of actual production. Each member was expected to either direct a one-act play and/or work as a member of the production crew in one of the major productions.

The former C.0.T.C. area became the Theatre Arts Centre, and many changes were made. A studio theatre and rehearsal halls were created to be used for general meetings, workshops, rehearsals and productions. Areas were allocated for costume storage and a prop room. Using the Centre for re­hearsals alleviated booking conflicts in the Main Auditorium. It was also used by a number of other departments and student societies who were allow­ed to book the area for meetings, classes and rehearsals.

II There were three major productions. These were ''Oh Dad, Poor Dad directed by Mr. Bruce Fortune, "The Firebugs", directed by Professor Peter Davies, and "Until the Monkey Comes", directed by Mr. Fortune. In addition there were one act plays held at the Theatre Arts Centre, and a co-production by Instant Theatre and the Loyola Drama Society.

CANADA MANPOWER CENTRE

Miss Allen was appointed manager of Canada Manpower Centre in September 1968. The staff consists of the manager, two counsellors, one recep­tionist-typist and one stenographer.

Publicity to the students was increased considerably to acquaint them with the extent of the services offered. A Career Planning and Placement Committee was formed. Letters were sent to faculty and staff to inform them of the services offered to students.

Publicity to prospective employers was also increased regarding permanent employment, part-time and summer employment. Letters of invitation were sent to employers regarding on-campus recruitment.

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND ATHLETICS

Despite necessary budgetary cuts, the Department of Physical Education and Athletics recorded another successful year. 1968-69 marked the fourth consecutive year of advancement for the expanded athletic and physical education program which was implemented in 1965.

In the men's section, a diversified program was offered. At the inter­collegiate level, in varsity and junior varsity competition in every single activity that a complete team was sponsored, Loyola had a conspicu­ously successful season highlighted by an undefeated league season by the Varsity football team; a Provincial Championship by the varsity hockey team; and a second consecutive undefeated league season; an Ottawa-St. Lawrence League and Provincial League Championship; and a strong third­place finish in the National Championship Playoffs by the Varsity basket­ball squad. All three of the above-mentioned were ranked in the top ten nationally. Loyola was the only institution in Canada honoured by "recognition" in all three areas. Concurrently, intramural sports clubs continued to flourish and the organization of the competitive intramural team sports was revamped resulting in a new record number of participants. In the women's division, the program conceived only four years ago pro­gressed to a level requiring the appointment of Loyola's first full-time Women's Supervisor of Physical Education and Athletics.

During this past year four "firsts" became part of the Loyola scene -First Loyola Aikido Club, First Annual Loyola Cheerleading Clinic, First Loyola Invitational Women's Hockey Tournament, and First Loyola Majorette Unit. The most prominent of the one hundred and seventy-four events promoted, organized and administered by the Department included the Third Annual Loyola of Montreal Centennial Invitational Hockey Tournament, the Third Annual Loyola of Montreal Centennial Invitational Basketball Tournament, and the Ottawa-St. Lawrence League Basketball Championships. Other prestigious affairs included the involvement of the department with the National Adult Fitness Research Committee, being the first Canadian University to meet with Russian, Czechoslovak, and Swedish university officials in the interest of promoting goodwill through hockey on an international basis. The Department also hosted the North American Athletic Trainers School, the Greater Montreal High School Football, Basketball, Hockey and Wrestling Championships, the Provincial High School Basketball Championships and the Montreal Alouette Football Training Camp. In 1968-69 the complex continued to serve as a multi­purpose building accommodating College, Evening Division and High School registration and examinations, Alumni and Student-sponsored non-athletic events and numerous community endeavours.

Worthy of recalling at this time are the results of a study published in September 1969. It reported that the cumulative academic average of varsity athletes was a highly commendable 64.5 per cent and that Loyola athletes were recipients of three of the major graduating awards : the coveted Loyola Medal, the Brodrick Award, and the Pierre Des Marais Prize.

OFFICE OF DEVELOPMENT

OF MONTREAL

The over-optimism that has typified the Office of Development at Loyola throughout its existence continued through the past fiscal year of the College. Nothing approaching the projected amounts of contributions was realized and the difficulties of converting from a relatively success­ful capital campaign to a continuing funding program became painfully apparent.

The Loyola Capital Development Program remained the principal area of effort and production during the year. Recovery of pledges made in previous years amounted to $435,700. New pledges were $256,680. The pledged amount outstanding to be collected as at June l, 1969 is $1,052,380. The semi-yearly statement on campaign results to the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada in May, 1969 ~eported $5,408,755 against the campaign objective of $6,600,000. As reported elsewhere, provincial government funds approximating this amount were also received.

While the organization of continuing programs did not produce the financial results hoped for in the 1968-69 period, real progress was made in convert­ing to systematic solicitations of alumni, parents of students, foundations, and industry . The Alumni Fund is developing along lines projected in the five-year program of three years ago, and cash contributions totalling $42,000 were received. This compares with less than $4,000 five years ago. The second annual appeal to parents produced approximately $25,000 in pledges, of which two mail solicitations produced $10,000.

Probably the most potentially productive area of contribution to the various needs of Loyola involves Canadian and American foundations. The efforts of the office were concentrated almost totally on exhaustive research and documentation of assistance possibilities from the more than 8,000 foundations in Canada and the United States. The eventual results of this part of the program are impossible to predict but no effective approach to the foundation area of financial giving is possible if this basic organization of information is not provided.

On the subject of information-gathering, the need for data processing cannot be over-stressed. Without the advantage of computerization of fund prospect lists of all kinds, the Development operation will be limited in the number and precision of solicitations for assistance. A small start in solving this problem was made this year.

A major Development 11 hang-up 11 this past year has been an inability to determine, from a financial point of view, the feasibility of

7? ' L .

Page 76: President's Report - Concordia

constructing the long-projected Campus Centre. The uncertainty of Government support of the project -- considered a priority need at Loyola -- and the existing financial commitments of the College, have created a climate of frustration in this area despite continued efforts to find ways of starting construction of the Center. A current recom­mendation of the Development Office is that a special campaign to raise $1,000,000 be undertaken in the Fall of 1969 as a means of matching the student pledge of $1,000,000 made in 1966.

While operations of the Office of Development over the past year did not produce expected and projected net revenue, the year did provide time to develop a vitally needed continuing appeal basis. As a result, the optimism which 1968-69 belied still remains the outlook of the Development Office : As reported to the May 28 meeting of the Board of Governors, the net funding objective in 1969-70 has been set at $50,000 per month. This is exclusive of the results of efforts to procure financial assistance for a variety of academic department projects as well as possible work on a Campus Centre Campaign.

PUBLIC RELATIONS

OF MONTREAL

Increased consultation with the P.R. Office by all segments of the Loyola conmunity has led to a considerable improvement in internal conmunications at Loyola throughout the past year. This, in turn, has made better communication about Loyola possible to the external community through the various media, conmunity organizations and direct contact.

The Public Relations Office has continued to maintain regular contact with all media - both local and national - through its regular releases about Loyola's academic programs, faculty appointments and publications, and student activities and achievements.

A bi-monthly events bulletin, THE HAPPENING, was published throughout the academic year. A special brochure was designed for the French Su111T1er Institute initiated in June 1969 by the Evening Division. Short articles were written for use in the ALUMNUS with increased co-operation between the Public Relations Office and the Alumni Association in the preparation of this publication. Internal bulletins were released regularly to pro­vide specific infonnation for faculty and staff. The President's Report was prepared for printing and mailing by the Public Relations Office for the first time this year. As a member of the Prospectus Committee, the Public Relations Officer was consulted on the Calendar.

Sponsors of many special events asked for assistance in preparing programs, posters, planning dinners, luncheons and seminars and releasing publicity. Both Fall and Spring Convocations' invitations and programs were prepared in the Public Relations Office.

With the co-operation of several administrative departments, an Events Co-Ordination Center was established. This has improved internal communica­tions through the centralization of requests for physical facilities and services and has provided a central source of infonnation about specific events and activities.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

7141 SHERBROOKE ST. W.

MONTREAL 262, QUE.

482-0320 LOC . :g;

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE LOYOLA ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

Four years have now passed since the emergence of a new Loyola Alumni Association from a small college association. I have watched this direction of the President of each of those years.

The Sports Hall of Fame is actively maintained. No events in recent memory have brought about such an outpouring of favourable publicity in the various news media for this institution. Our gratitude must be once again extended to Dr. Brodrick, to Mr. Mccallum and to the large qroup who contributed to this project. In 1968 the Alumni Fund consisted of $44,009.26 in cash gifts and an endowment fund of $2,348.44 making a total of $46,357.70. These amounts compare favor­ably with contributions in prior years made by alumni to their alma mater and reflect a rather high average gift since the percentage of participation remains a great deal lower than it should be. Your Fund Chainnan for 1968-69 was Mr. W. H. Wilson Jr., and for 1969-70 will be Mr. R. N. Brady.

The Student Loan Fund operated to the advantage of many during the year. Dean Joly, Professor Larry Boyle and Dr. Blanar, who bore the lion's share of the work in administering this project, deserve our sincere thanks and appreciation.

For the fourth time, the Loyola Medal was presented to an outstanding Canadian, Mr. Arthur F. Mayne. In view of the quality of the recipi­ents of the Medal to date and of its acceptance by the new media as a significant award, I believe we may report that this project has achieved its original object and the Medal ranks high among disttnctions of this nature. This year, the Medal was presented to Mr. Mayne on the occasion of a black tie dinner and resulted in a major event of the year which permitted Loyola to participate actively with members of the financial community.

A word of gratitude and appreciation is due to Mr. Ed Enos, the Director of Athletics, who made his rink and gymnasium available to the Alumni on Sundays.

Loyola High School remains an important consideration for our Association since it provides the sole connection with Loyola for many of our members. Three years ago, arrangements were concluded with the Principal, Father K. Casey, and with Mr. Ed Meagher, Vice-Principal and Director of Admissions, to ensure that, as far as possible, sons of alumni would be accommodated. In a day when seven times the number of applicants that can be accepted sit for the entrance examinations, the academic level has become extremely high. I would like to express to Father Casey and to Mr. Meagher our deep appreciation for their great efforts in continuing to implement the agreements concluded three years ago.

The academic year now concluding has been an eventful one, not only for Loyola but also for university-level institutions around the world. Events at Sir George Williams, at McGill, and later at California, City College, Harvard and Columbia, are indicative of the tremendous unrest and dissatisfaction among student bodies the world over. Seemingly, the unrest has spread from members of the student body to members of faculty. It may just be that some members of the faculties can be considered as the avant-garde. One must contemplate that some of the difficulties could result from the contractual relationship between some members of the faculties and their employer college or university. The time may have come where administrators of such institutions would be well advised to submit employment contracts to their legal advisors for direction as to how these matters should be dealt with in law.

I draw to the attention of the Alumni Association our very great loss in the passing of the Honourable Senator Power and of Frank Shaughnessy, Sr. during the course of last year. These men devoted many years of service to the Association and to the College which they loved.

I should like to express our thanks to the administration of Loyola and, in particular, to the Very Reverend Father President who, despite a load of responsibility that would exhaust most men, has always supported our endeavors and encouraged our projects. I am personally grateful for his courtesies and co-operation extended to me throughout the year. I should also like to express our thanks to the faculty, some of whom are members of this Association, for their co-operation whenever it has been requested.

Our thanks go to Mr. Bernard Mccallum an~ his office stnff for their full­time efforts on our he~alf. The continuity they provide from year to year does as much to ensure the successes we achieve and is of imneasurable assistance to those who bear the responsibility for directing the affairs of this Association.

Finally, I express my deep gratitude to all of the members of the Board of Directors for their support and encouragement over the past eighteen months. Most of them remain on the Board and our new President will find them efficient, effective and most generous with their time and assistance.

R E P O R T

We have examined the balance sheet of Loyola College as at

June 30, 1969 and the related statements of capital account, development

fund, income and expense, for the year then ended. Our examination included

1 general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting

records and other supporting evidence as we considered necessary in the

circumstances. As is the case in most organizations in receipt of funds by

donation, verification of such items was impracticable beyond accounting

for amounts recorded in the books of the College.

In our opinion these financial statements present fairly the

financial position of the College as at June 30, 1969 and the results of

its operations for the year then ended, in accordance with generally accepted

accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding

year.
