Rumor has it that we’re not going to have a big dance this summer. Rumor also has it that we’re not going to decorate the gym. Another rumor says that if we do decorate, it will be with six foot pictures of nudes. Well they’re all wrong. We are having a dance and we are decorating the gym with eight foot pictures of nudes. , The Saturday night dance may not be quite as classy as other years but all the same it should be lots of fun for anybody who’s not worn

ENROLMENT OF 1600 EXPECTED for U of W EllENIN CLASES n

A yearning for learning is spreading q&kly among the adult population of this section of Ontario. More than 1600 persons are expected to enrol in evening courses offered by the Adult Education Department of the University of Waterloo this fall. A total of 50 courses are being offered in everything from art, sculpture and home decorating to the regular academic courses in English, French and Sociology, which carry full credit toward a university degree. In addition to lectures at the university, courses will also be held at Guelph, Galt, Stratford and Woodstock in co-operation with local ofganizations. The University of Waterloo’s Adult Education Program is- organized by Dr. G. E. Reaman, one of Ontario’s best known educationalists. Dr. Reaman came to the university originally to do some part-time teaching following retirement as Head of the English Department
out from the afternoon’s activities. Let’s all get out and have a good time. It’s customary for this column to make the semiannual plea for amateur artists and hopeful interior decorators - well here it is. It would be very much appreciated if all those wishing to help decorate the gym would sign the notice outside the Engineering Society Office. Thanks and have a good time. Bill Bowick.
The Yice-President Marking Out the ObstacleCourse The Summer ‘61 version of the Engineering Weekend is wearing a brand new look this year ~ an expanded programme which should contain something for everyone. Descriptions of the doings abound elsewhere in these pages the Weiner Roast, Motor Rally, Field Day and Dance are well detailed. It remains for me only to extend to you all a blanket welcome to the Weekend on behalf of the Executive of the Engineering Society. We especially welcome all of the out-of-town guests, both male and female, and sincerely that they will not find our hospitality lacking. My personal thanks go to everyone connected with the planning and operation of the Weekend, with special bouquets to Pete Kent (without whom none of this would be possible), Tom Gravelle, and Bill Bowick. Prosit! Bill McGrataon at the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph. In 1956 he was asked to “look into” the possibility of adult education courses. He soon found he had a tiger by the tail and the original enrolment of 500 has trebled in four years. “I only wish I were a younger man,” he says, “This field is unlimited. People are starved for opportunities for self-improvement or to keep their thinking fresh.” Business groups are also becoming more and more interested in adult education courses for their employees for the same reasons.
“You cannot sell today’s products with yesterday’s methods and be in business tomorrow,” says Dr. Reaman in commenting on the need for courses aimed at people in business.
Have you got your waterwings? Weiner roast tickets? Dance tickets? Did you find a girl? If the answer to these questions is yes, then we can’t help you. The Weekend Committee would like to thank Orr Automobiles Ltd., Dominion Sports, and Forbes Motors Ltd., for their interest and contributions. May a good time be had by all. Pete Kent
In the past, the evening courses have been on an individual basis. As long as there were enough people interested in taking a course, the university would find a lecturer and develop a Although this program. still holds true for newer courses, many of the courses are now being integrated so that people can take new

There used to be a sign on two bulletin boards in the Math’s and Physics Building stating the rules of the “Common Room.” One pro-
hibited eating lunches in the “Common Room”. Recently there have been some staff members seen eating their lunches in there. Should they get preference over the students who made these rules for the common good of all?

Next year at this time our first Engineering graduates will have recovered from the graduation “exercises” and will be wending their way into industry, teaching, postgraduate work and other vocations. Most of us are aware of the acceptance, to varying degrees, of the Co-operative Engineering programme on the undergraduate level but how will this new and, to Canada, revolutionary educational scheme be accepted on the graduate level by industry and the various groups associated with the Engineering profession? Officially, little has been said but. the University Faculty has approached some of these organizations. Several months ago three members of the National Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges (NCCUC) made an extensive tour of the campus. Dean R. R. McLaughlin, Dean of Engineering, U. of T., and chairman of the committee submitted recommendations that the U. of W. be admitted as a member of the NCCUC. In fact, the University of Waterloo was admitted at the June, 1961, meeting of the NCCUC held at McGill. The Engineering Institute of Canada that our degree qualifies the University Member of the Institute.
has given assurance as a Corporate
On May 3rd, 1961, an application for recognition of the University degree was sent to Mr. L. C. Sentance, President of the Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario. The application was accompanied by copies of past examination papers, academic qualifications of Faculty, listings of Library acquisitions and other pertinent information which the Accreditation Committee of the Association must consider. Usually the Association does not give its decision until approximately two months before the applicant University graduates a class and no decision is expected in our ease until early next spring. The acceptance of University of Waterloo Engineering graduates in industry will depend greatly on the Association’s decision and as to that, a guess at the moment would be pure conjecture.

In addition, this is the first year that degree credit courses are’ being offered to evening students. It is probable that the demand for such will also increase rapidly. Among the Adult Education of non-academic courses offered this year are commercial art, accounting, Russian, Spanish, religion, rapid reading, writing for magazines and personnel administration. A number of courses are being given in co-operation with the Canadian Industrial Management Association, The Associate Appraisal Institute of Canada and the Society of Industrial and Cost Accountants of Ontario. One new course which is attracting a high degree ol interest is a lo-week course on the historical background of Latin America. Specialized facilities of tht university which will be usec for adult education course: include the new high speed computer laboratory and tht recently installed language laboratory. Registration for the Uni. versity of Waterloo adull education courses will bc held on September 8 and t with lectures to begin the following week.

ZQuestion of the Week ? What contribution will the New Democratic Party be to Canada’s political future? My opinion is that The New Democratic Party may bring many changes to Canada’s political future. Their policies are completely different from those of the Liberal or Progressive Conservative parties which are practically indistinguishable. The New Democratic Party being a socialist party will give the voter a distinct choice between the New Democratic Party’s public enterprise policies and the free enterprise policies of our present government. If the political future of Canada proceeds as Britain’s has, in time we may see the
Liberal party lose its power and the Conservative and New Democratic Party will fight for political power. Bruce

It will become a stronger socializing influence in Canadian polities and its strength will depend on the degree of financial support it can obtain from the unions. The next major political issue in Ontario will be as to whether or not legislation should be introduced to prevent automatic check-off of party dues levied against union members. J. A. Ronback, 4B Electrical
