Dr. Elder )

That the Senate ad hoc Committee on Standards i nDr. Stager )

English be discharged .

Rev. Burns, Chairman of the ad hoc Committee on Standards in English, state d

that the committee felt that its role was to monitor the effects of th e

implementation of the new admissions policy of 1981 and then to see if there was an y

noticeable change in the quality of written English . He stated that the Chairman o f

English 100 was prepared to submit a report on this matter, after which th e

committee could be dissolved .

Faculty of Arts

Change in name of the School of Librarianshi p

Dean Will )

That the name of the School of Librarianship beDr, Kelly )

changed to the School of Library, Archival an dInformation Studies .

It was stated in the material circulated that in 1960 Senate had approved th e

establishment of the School of Librarianship . Until 1971 its program led to a

one—year Bachelor of Library Science degree ; since that date to a two—year Maste r

of Library Science degree . In 1981 the scope of the School's program was increased

to include Archival Studies. This new program, administered jointly by the School an d

the Department of History, leads to the Master of Archival Studies degree .

•

•

8243 .


Faculty of Arts

Change in name of the School of Librarianship (continued)

Courses offered by the School, while dealing with libraries and archives a s

institutions, are also concerned generally with the creation, use and management o f

information in all its forms. The fact is reflected in the titles and descriptions o f

many courses . This situation is common throughout the world ; over half of the

schools in North America and the United Kingdom therefore include the wor d

'information' in their names. Similarly, to an increasing extent graduates are findin g

employment not in libraries and archives but in the information sector generally a s

consultants, researchers, editors, broadcasters, etc.

In the interest of general understanding, this School's name should reflect more

accurately the nature of its concerns and curriculum. Accordingly it is recommende d

that the name of the School be changed from the School of Librarianship to th e

School of Library, Archival and Information Studies .

Dr. Dennison raised a query concerning the effect of new policies with regard t o

stated that he hoped to be in a position to report on this matter at the next meeting of

Senate .

Winter Session Enrolmen t

The Registrar reported that although late registration and registration in the

Faculty of Graduate Studies was continuing, preliminary figures indicated a sligh t

decrease in Winter Session enrolment. As of September 11, 1984 it appeared that

enrolment would be down in the order of five hundred students from enrolment in th e

1983—84 Winter Session .

•

8244 .


Winter Session Enrolment (continued)

All of the reported decrease was accounted for in first year enrolment . The

Registrar reported that the no–show rate for new first year students was up from a

previous twenty percent to approximately thirty-three percent . Preliminary enrolmen t

data indicated new first year enrolment was down by about fourteen percent from th e

quota set by Senate and by about fifteen percent from new first year enrolment in th e

1983-84 Winter Session .

Dean Will requested that a survey be conducted to determine the reasons new firs t

year students admitted to the University did not register . The Chairman indicated tha t

such a survey would be investigated.

degree program will be established by the Academic Council . Admission will be to that

degree and if UBC courses are offered for the degree, students not admissible to U .B.C.
