Board of Governors, as set forth in S.90-55 curriculum
revisions in the Faculty of Arts as follows:
Proposal for a B.A. Degree - General
Program
Department of Archaeology

A PROPOSAL FOR A GENERAL B. A. DEGREE
Proposed is that students be permitted to obtain a general
B.A. degree with the following requirements:
1.
Students must complete the Faculty of Arts breadth
requirements.
2.
Students must complete two extended general minor
programs - an extended minor consists of the lower
division requirements for a major, and the upper
division requirements for a minor. These extended
minors will normally be from programs offered in the
Faculty of Arts. All requests for extended minors from
other faculties, or from programs without majors, must
be approved in advance by the Program Advisor.
3.
Students must have their programs approved by the
advisor for the General B.A. degree, as well as the
advisors in both extended minor programs.
4. Students must meet the required entrance requirement
in those departments where enrolment limitations are
in effect. Students must meet the Faculty of Arts
Graduation requirements - a CGPA of at least 2.00 in
all courses taken in each minor area, except in
programs where enrolment limitations
stipulate
a
higher CGPA for entry.
Students must also have a CGPA of at least
2.00
in
all Upper Division courses taken.
The B.C. College of Teachers, in its requirements for
certification, shows a bias against the major degree as the
preferred training for teachers. We in the Faculty of Arts
would prefer future teachers to complete more than just a
minor - it is our opinion that a broad spectrum of lower
division courses gives the future teacher the basics of the
discipline. Minors in Arts tend to require only 9 lower
division credits, whereas majors require between 15 and 20
lower division credits. The Faculty of Arts also is of the
opinion that for the majority of teachers, the B.A. degree
provides excellent academic preparation for their profession.
UBC has established general B.A. and B.Sc. degrees in response
to the programs being developed in the colleges where majors
are not possible.

Post Baccalaureate Diploma Program in

Community Economic Development
1. Program Rationale
Given the call for sustainable development
,
in which economic and
environmental decisions must be reconciled and integrated, what kind of
education for local development makes sense in the 1990s? This proposal for an
advanced undergraduate education program (post-baccalaureate) in community
economic development places special emphasis on the relationship of the means
and ends of sustainable local development and is particularly open to the people
in communities who will directly experience both the means and the ends of such
development.
As an academic field community economic development is a combination
of the theories and ideas about development and the careful study of
communities. It includes as well an appreciation of the nature and quality of
. local government and decision-making processes which preceded the emergence
of large-scale state structures. Such local processes have not been entirely
eroded, and may indeed become more important in the search for sustainable
development. The careful study of community institutions and structures
permits a realistic appraisal of whether and how ideas and theories about
development will actually work in context and how their effect can be monitored
and evaluated.
Community economic development is thus not simply a branch of
economics, geography, or anthropology; it is a study of a complex interplay of
markets and business, government and policies, technology and social
organization, history, gender and culture, and natural environments. It is not
itself a "Discipline", but a confluence of disciplines and approaches which focus
on economic development at the community level.*
* In this proposal 'communities' is defined both as spatial communities which may be small villages or large
cities, and as communities of interest which have historic, linguistic, ethnic, cultural, or economic boundaries.
Occasionally these two ideas are combined, as in the case of 'native communities' which have both historic,
ethnic and spatial definitions.

As an academic field it is both an analysis of means and ends for
communities, and a balance of practice and theoretical abstraction for learners.
It draws oh the models and insights of economics, geography, anthropology,
history, communication, ecology, women's studies, law, political science, and so
on - but is not limited to one of these.
By itself none of these disciplines is sufficient for the study of community
economic development. The methodologies on which this field rests range from
quantitative, statistical analysis to empirical, qualitative and intuitive techniques,
in short, the methods of the multiple disciplines which are combined in it. This
is why the teaching program is directed to people who have already acquired
some of those skills as advanced undergraduates and why students in this
program will choose from a list of electives of advanced undergraduate courses
in various departments (see following list of Electives).
2. Student Demand
The Centre for Community Economic Development and members of its
Steering Committee have received about
45
direct enquiries from students or
potential students about a teaching program since the Centre was formally
approved iii February 1989. Inquiries have also come from officials of
government departments such as the federal Department of Indian Affairs and
Northern Development, and the provincial Ministry of economic and Regional
Development. Staff in municipal governments, and, regional financial
institutions have also expressed interest in such a program of study. These
enquiries are related both to their own present employees and also to the future
graduates who, may be employed. The interest in education and professional
development in community economic development is not restricted to British
Columbia, and the proposed teaching program is intended and structured for
people in other parts of Canada and other countries (including developing
countries).
In British Columbia there are no programs for community economic
development; there is a

year old school of Community and Regional Planning
at University of British Columbia, and a School of Public Administration at
University of Victoria. The proposed Simon Fraser University program
'3

 
complements the approaches of these other two neighbouring institutions. Both
Schools at UBC and UVIC operate graduate programs only.
While there are academic research centres at other Canadian universities,
there are few established teaching programs. Although the reasons for this vary
from place to place there has been discussion in 1989 and 1990 of the need felt
by students all across the country. The only source for post-baccalaureate work
in this field in Canada is via the University of Waterloo, a program centering
more on economic planning and industrial development than on CED as
described in this proposal.
3. Program Structure and Administration
The Diploma program consists of a core of three 5-credit courses, a
5-
credit Practicum, course and at least 10 credits of electives chosen from a list of
suggested courses. The first core course,
Introduction to Community Economic
Development,
is to be offered via distance education only [following an initial on
campus offering to develop the course] and is to be made available in a credit,
audit and non-credit format. The purpose of the course is to provide a broad but
is sophisticated introduction to the range of issues and topics involved in CED and
to alert prospective students to the knowledge base required for the Diploma
Program. Students must complete this course before enrolling in the remainder
of the core program. Funds to develop this course are being sought by the
Centre for Distance Education and that unit will ultimately undertake on-going
administration of the course.
The other two core courses - one on
"CED in Context: Ecology,
Technology, and Sustainable Development
"and the other on
"Models and
Cases" - will
be offered in the Fall and Spring semesters on campus and on
sessins
alternate Summers during Intersession or Summer
nsrs,
preceded by a 2-
week period of assigned reading and other preparation. The special summer
session offerings are planned as a 'modified distance education course', with
students enrolled in the summer session and required to complete specific
readings and assignments prior to the start of in-person classes. The intent of
this approach is to allow for maximum participation by students from outside
the Lower Mainland area. The required Project course may take place locally

Proposed Calendar Entry
Post Baccalaureate Diploma in Community Economic Development
The Post Baccalaureate Diploma in Community Economic Development is
designed to provide interested individuals who already have an undergraduate
degree or its equivalent with specialized knowledge and skills applicable to a
wide range of occupational, professional and academic fields. By combining
courses from a number of different disciplines with a specially designed core
program of study and opportunities for guided practice, the program will
provide unique perspectives on issues of economic, social and cultural
development within the context of communities.
Program Requirements:
Students must coni
following courses:
CED 401-5
SCED4O2-5
CED 403-5
CED
404-5
plete 30 upper division credit hours, including 20 hours in the
lntroductibn to Community Economic Development
Community Economic Development in Context: Ecology,
Technology, and Sustainable Development
Models and Cases in Community Economic Development
Project in Community Economic Development
Note: CED is used here, however the General Studies (GS) descriptor
could be used.
In addition to these required courses, students must complete at least 10 credits
in courses from the following list. At least 21 credit hours of the total
requirements must be completed at S.F.U. Students should be aware that some
of these courses require the completion of prerequisites outside the Diploma
Program; and that other restrictions may apply. A GPA of
2.5
in CED 401 and
an average GPA of
2.5
in all courses applied to the diploma are both required
for continuance in the program. Note: Students' attention is drawn to the
prerequisite requirements of courses in the Electives list. Many departments
will waive some introductory courses for students who have extensive
experience in the area. Students must check the Calendar entry for each
Department, and discuss the requirements with the Advisor prior to registering

Program
in Community Economic Development and find, to my pleasure,
,
that
the Library's holdings are sufficient for the initial offering
of
the three new

courses
,
. We already own virtually all of the titles
listed in, the course outlines and most of the journals cited as
well.
However, many of these books are already heavi1y
used and additional copies should be acquired.
,
In addition, the.
continued development
of
the program will entail annual additions
to the collection and new journals will undoubtedly be required.
I suggest. an
annual, allocation of $2,000 which would provide a

CED 401-5: INTRODUCTION TO COMMUNITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
. This first course in the Community Economic Development Post Baccalaureate Diploma
Program is designed to introduce students to the economic issues and factors which lie at the base
of any discussion of CED and to place that economic base within the larger context of community,
development., and public policy. The course is offered by distance education and is available on a
non-credit basis for students who wish to assess their abilities in the field of economics.
Objectives
1.
To give students an understanding of economic activity at the community level.
2.
To explore the significance of the concepts of "community" and "development" in the context
of community economic development.
3.
To offer an introduction to the articulation and implementation of public policy in the field of
community economic development.
4.
To develop a social science perspective on the functions and structure of policy institutions,
• ?
with a particular emphasis on development.
Outline
1.
Disaggregating the national economy; the importance of local economies and community
economic development policies.
2.
The idea of community: the city, the town, the village, non-spatial communities,
utopian/closed communities.
3.
Examples of communities and their economic/ecological/ political basis. Internal organization
of communities, relations with the external environment, importance of local government.
4.
The idea of development: the roles of external agencies versus the unfolding of inherent
properties, sustainable development.

CED 402-5: CED IN CONTEXT: ECOLOGY, TECHNOLOGY, AND
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
The concept of ecologically sustainable development emerged in full force from the 1972
United Nations Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment. The concept became a
proposal in 1987, with the publication of
Our Common Future,
the Report of the World
Commission on Environment and Development (The Bruntland Commission). Following that
Report, the idea of ecologically sustainable development moved from concept and proposái into the
arena of plans, projects and controversy. Economic development, in earlier times often abstracted
from ecological and even sociological contexts, now became wedded to biosphere issues. The
environment was seen, in the now popular language, as "an integral part of long-term sustainable
development rather than merely as a resource to be exploited or traded for economic development."
Ecologically sustainable development is closely linked to C.E.D.; indeed for many people they
are virtually synonyms. It has become commonplace to see issues of sustainability as requiring
smaller size enterprises, smaller, 'appropriate' or even absent technology, and a focus on local
community involvement, participation or control. This focus on issues of size, 'appropriate'
technology and participatory management has produced a lively debate amongst economists,
futurists and ecologists over the nature and extent of the problem or crisis and the nature and value
of the proposed solutions.
Objectives
1.
Provide an introduction to these issues, starting with an examination of contemporary social and
cultural development and a review of the current debate over human-biosphere relations.
2.
Examine in detail (1) the debate on sustainable development and (2) the debate on the proper role
of technology within an ecologically sustainable process of economic development.
Class Schedule and Suggested Readings:
Week 1-2: Ideas and Contexts.
Ways of organizing economic life are both causal and derivative of social and cultural
developments and the two short texts examined in this opening section provide contrasting but
related views of that connection. Steiner probes the impact of what he sees as a persistent
failure to find a replacement for the decay of formal religion despite a century-long quest for
alternative mythologies. Ignatieff speculates on the changing nature of ideas of community and
democracy within the modern welfare state, a state in which we are "...responsible for each
other, but we are not responsible to each other."

?
Week 3-4. The Biosphere Issue and Arcadia
Understanding the extent and nature of the so-called environmental crisis involves both a
scientific and a philosophical quest. Judgments about the state of our ecology quickly become
entwined with nostalgic, romantic and persistently human longings for a more 'organic'
relation between the human and the other species ands, for some, between the human and the
biosphere itself. Naess provides a full introduction to this 'deep ecology' perspective and at
the same time raises its implications for economy and community. Eisenberg and Turner
provide an accessible and contemporary look at the nature of the debate that swirls around the
deep ecology question, disagreeing completely on the fate of the North American prairie and
the diagnosis for its rejuvenation.

Ecologically Sustainable Development
The basic text for defining this concept and outlining a specific agenda for its implementation
the Bruntland Commission Report. While it is too early to reach final conclusions, it does
seem that this exercise in global consciousness-raising and global prescription has had an
extraordinary impact in both realms. The supplemental readings all flow from the impetus
established by the publication of the Report and are concerned with specific aspects or
dimensions of the problem.

Week 8-11. The.Issue of Technology
Within the field of community economic development, the notion of 'appropriate technology'
posits a model or means for blending community control with the use of technology in ways
that are economically and environmentally sustainable. The readings from Can, McRobie and
Jequier make the case for this approach to technology while the selections from Teich offer
some critical perspectives. To enrich this section, students can read Frankel's critique or
caution from the political left, Pirsig's still fascinating paean to human-scale technology and
intimacy between human and machine and Skinner's still-persuasive scientific utopia.

MODELS AND CASES IN COMMUNITY ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT
The study of communities and community economic development must eventually be
grounded in examples, both historic and contemporary. These examples, viewed in this
course through a case study approach, offer an approach to the various models employed in
studying communities at work.
Objectives:
1.
To illuminate the two other core courses and be a bridge between them.
2.
Ties in with co-op/field placement and the CED 403-3 Practicum
3.
Uses Knowledge Network, Globe-Infonet, C.E.D.C. data base, Economic
Council case studies etc: combines history and knowledge of current events.
4.
Builds the C.E.D.C. fund of models and cases - this course relies on case-
studies, and students contribute to them.

Methodology for Models and Cases
Abstracting from case studies in order to 'model' them is not easy; the
methodological limitations must be recognized. This module focuses on
methods for the study of communities and their development, their
power structure and communication networks, their decision-making
process, their histories of conflict and intervention, and their interaction
with governments and corporations. Field work techniques are
described.

Planned Multiple-purpose Communities
The "shopping-mall and subdivision community" is a forty year old
model and presents special problems for CED: it is usually the main
vehicle for urban sprawl, and implies a transient population (e.g.
Burnaby, Bangkok)
week. 6
?
Single-Industry Communities
If the industry is part of an unstable economy, and if the community is
attached to a mega-project, it may approach CED in an atmosphere of
crisis. What are the models of transition from a single-industry to a
complex, more stable economy? (e.g. Tumbler Ridge, Whistler,
Caribbean)
week. 7-8 ?
Ethnicity, Intention, and Community Economic Development
In native communities and intentional communities there are special
forms of inclusion and exclusion which are non-economic. Such a basis
can be a disadvantage or an advantage in CED: What is the experience
of these communities? (e.g. Shuswap Nation, Hutterites, rural
Thailand)
• ?
week. 9-11
?
Models of Economic Development in Context
Credit unions, regional banks, loan funds, cooperatives, small business
networks and consortia, and local government etc. are all vehicles of
CED: What is the result of experiments by these agencies and groups?
week. 12-13 ?
Review of Issues by Presentation of Student Case Studies
A conference, with invited discussants, to show-case the results of
student projects during the course.
Readings will be drawn from 24 case studies published in 1990 by Economic Council of
Canada, plus cases in B.C. Studies, Communit

PROPOSED COURSE CHANGES - FILM AREA
1.)
238-3 Introduction to Screenwriting:
Change in Prerequisite
Former prerequisite:
FPA 231 Filmmaking I or 252 Playmaking, and permission of the
Department. Students who have taken FPA 332 for credit may not take
FPA 238 for further credit.
Change to:
FPA 136 or 127, The History and Aesthetics
of
Cinema I or II, or 253
Playmaking II, and permission
of
the Department. Students who have
taken FPA 332 for credit may not take FPA 238 for further credit.
Rationale:
The Film Area prerequisites are being changed from a film studio course
(FPA 231) to a film studies course (FPA 136 or 137) to make the course
more accessible to students from outside the Film Area. FPA 253:
Playmaking II is recommended by the Theatre Areas as more appropriate
than FPA 252 because more writing is involved.
2.)
FPA 338-3 ?
Advanced Screenwriting:
Change in Prerequisite.
Former Prerequisite:
FPA 238 and permission
of
the department.
Change to:
FPA 238 or FPA
353
or FPA 456; and permission of the department.
Rationale:
We make this change at the request of the Theatre Area so that it can
become an elective course for senior students. Both FPA 353: (Playmaking
IV) and FPA 456 (Conceptual Approaches to Theatre) are primarily
writing courses, which address many of the same formal and aesthetic
concerns as FPA 238 (Introductory Screenwriting).
.
F.'

 
3.) FPA 339-3 ?
Directing Actors for Film and Video:
Change
in name and prerequisite.
Former Prerequisite:
FPA 230, FPA 151 and permission
of
the department. Students with upper
division standing in Theatre and demonstrated familiarity
, with film
directing practices may be considered for admission.
Change Title to:
Directing and Acting for Film and Video
Change Prerequisite to:
FPA 331; or FPA 251 and permission
of the department.
Rationale:
In the first offering, of this course it has proven invaluable to include
Theatre students in significant numbers; the change in title and
prerequisite structure will make it more accessible to them. At the same
time, the Theatre Area recommends 251 as the most appropriate
preparation for Theatre students. FPA 331 is recommended rather than
FPA 230 for Film students for two reasons: first,, they will by this time
have had sufficient experience in filmmaking to benefit from the training;
and, secondly,, they will be guided toward taking the course in Third year
when. their workloads are less onerous than in Second year.

for the Introduction of FPA 334-Y-434-3.
We are not presently able to offer a yearly course in editing, film
sound, or special visual effects, although there is much interest in doing so
and from time to time we do have the opportunity on an ad hoc basis. A
Selected Topics studio course would allow us the flexibility to offer these
courses when means permit. At present we have no course number
appropriate for such topics, and consequently we are co-opting FPA 237, a
Film Studies course number, to offer a class in the Apparatus of Cinema in
Fall 1990. We would prefer to save this number for its proper purpose in
future.

COURSE OUTLINE
?
334-3: Special Topics in Film and Video Production
?
Sample Topic: Film Editing
This course is designed to increase the student's mastery of the
techniques of picture and sound editing on film, and to introduce the
technology of post-production in video for finishing in video or film. The
picture editor is often responsible for all phases of postproduction,
including the shooting of titles, sound editing, dubbing and mixing, optical
printing and negative cutting. The creative and organizational skills
involved in these activities will be discussed in some detail.
Coursework will consist of lectures and screening of pertinent film
clips examining the aesthetic choices open to the editor, and .a thorough
grounding in the technical aspects of editing; accompanied by exercises in
cutting picture and sound. In addition to completing a number of small
assignments, each student will undertake an editing project -- either alone
or in collaboration with others in the class. This project may consist of
po'stproduction on the student's own film; on another film shot in one of
the production courses; or, at the instructor's discretion, as an
apprenticeship on a professional film.

TUFAIRI. PROPOSAL PASF 1
SCHOOL FOR THE CONTEMPORARY ARTS
NEW COURSE PROPOSALS: THEATRE
INTRODUCTION
The recent addition of a new faculty member in Theatre in
1990-91 has made it imperative to institute the following
courses. Our new faculty member is currently teaching these
courses under the rubric of Selected Topics, and this is
proving awkward. The proposed courses are part of our long
term curricular plan, and are designed specifically to take
advantage of the new position and to further the pedagogical
objectives of the Area.
There are four courses proposed. As the School now has the
new faculty member in place the four proposed courses
require no new resources.
NEW COURSE PROPOSALS
(See
also attached forms.)
FPA 358-2 Speech and Oral
Interpretation
I. This course
provides an introduction to the elements of English speech
and their use in the dramatic setting. Students will be
introduced to basic practices leading to the creation of a
theatrical standard of speech.
Prerequisites: FPA 251 and FPA 255 or permission of the
Department.
Rationale:
The new courses in Speech and Oral Interpretation
reflect current attention in the field of Theatre focused on
the nature of spoken English and its analysis by means of
the International Phonetic Alphabet as it applies to the
work of the performer. The new position of Assistant
Professor instituted in 1989 is intended to address issues
of speech, regional dialect, articulation, history of spoken
language, and problems of oral interpretation.
FPA 450-3 Advanced Studio Skills
I. This course will
undertake advanced performance work with research into
specific skills that will enrich the repertoire of technique
acquired in the earlier studios. Course content may he
adjusted according to needs and interests of specific
students. This could include the theatrical techniques of
Commedia del'arte, classical and contemporary acting styles,
circus skills, advanced period movement, stage combat, and
contact improvisation.
.
r

 
IHEAIRL PROPOSAL PAGE 2
r
?
Prerequisites: FFA 350, 351 and permission of the Department.
Rationale:
?
The contemporary theatre requires more than the
traditional repertoire of studio skills. The objective of
the course is to broaden the base of performance technique
to be acquired by the BFA students, by giving them the
opportunity for advanced study in specific performance
skills.
FPA 453-3 Theory and
Practice of Directing.
An introduction
to the fundamentals of directing. Directorial topics such as
composition, picturization, movement, rhythm, staging
choices, and play selection will be considered. There will
be practical problems in directing style.
Prerequisites: FPA 253, 350.
Rationale:
At this level of the program students have
considerable experience with the theory of the theatre and
the work of the actor. They are in a position to consider
directing. The nature of the program, which encourages
students to develop their own work, requires that they
develop some directorial skills in order to successfully
produce the work.
.
FPA 454-2
Speech and Oral Interpretation II. Advanced work
in the elements of spoken English with attention given to
relationship between oral use of the language and elements
of oratory and story telling. Elements of story and story
telling will be considered through active interpretation of
myths, fairy tales, biblical psalms, carnival pitches,
patter songs, anecdotes, and Choral work from the classical
Greek canon.
Prerequisites: FPA 358.
Rationale: This course applies the analytical work done in
FPA 358-2 (Speech and Oral Interpretation I) to the
interpretive work of the actor. It deals with problems
faced by the performer in bringing text from the printed
page to theatrical life. It completes the work begun in the
earlier course by applying theory to practice in various
settings.

RATIONALE FOR CHANGES TO DIRECTED STUDIES COURSES
It has been the experience of the faculty that directed study projects rarely merit the
amount of work produced in the expectations of a five credit course. This may be due
to the inexperience of undergraduate students in their artistic process and at this
stage projects of a limited scope are more beneficial.

F.A.C.C.
• (l)CRIM 320-3 (Advanced Research Issues in Criminology)
CMPT 103 and PSYC 210 should no longer appear as "strongly

Rationale: Pascale Programming (CMPT 103) has no current
relevance to the methods used for teaching Advanced Research
Issues in Criminology. Regarding PSYC 210, this is only one
of a selection of statistical courses (STAT 101/102/103 or
PSYC 210) of which students must complete one before they
will be admitted as a major in the Criminology program.
(2)CRIM 120 (Research Methods in Criminology).
MATH 110 should be inserted as an alternate prerequisite to
MATH 100 for those students who do not have Algebra 12.
Rationale: MATH 100(Precalculus) and MATH 110(Introductory
Mathematics for the Social and Management Sciences) serve
similar functions for those students lacking Algebra 12, and
the addition of MATH 110 s an alternate prerequisite would
give students more options and flexibility.

income, distribution, social accounts, public finance, international trade, comparative
systems, and development and growth.
. ?
FROM:
Prerequisite: Any 100 division Economics course.
TO:
Prerequisites: Any 100 division Economics course and ECON 200-3
RATIONALE:
Unless all students have taken an introduction to MICROECONOMICS prior to
enrolling in MACROECONOMICS then it is necessary to spend the first three weeks of
the course teaching the micro tools required for macro.
2.
Changing the prerequisites for ECON 381-5
TITLE: Labour Economics
DESCRIPTION: Analysis of the economics of the labor market with particular
emphasis on wage determination, the concept of full-employment, and manpower
policies.

.
TO:
Prerequisites: BUEC 280-3 (formerly ECON/COMM 280) and ECON 301-5, or
permission of the department; 60 credit hOurs.
RATIONALE:
The change is required by the complexity of the course material and the difficulty
of teaching the course when some students have taken ECON 301 while others have not.
3. ?
ECON 342-3
TITLE: International Trade
Change of Prerequisites:
DESCRIPTION: Topics discussed in this course are: gains from trade in a
classical world; the modem theory of international trade; factor price equalization;
empirical tests and extensions of the pure theory model; economic growth and
international trade; the nature and effects of protection; motives and welfare effects of
factor movements; multinational enterprises; the brain drain; customs union theory;
pollution control and international trade.

department. Students with ccredit for ECON 442 cannot take this course for further
credit.
RATIONALE:
Given the level of presentation and the background of most students who are
interested in these courses, students only require the 200 Division courses as
prerequisites.
ECON 345-3
TITLE: International Finance
Change of Prerequisites:
Description: Foreign exchange markets; determination of spot and forward
exchange rates;Euro-currency markets; balance of payment statistics; international

interested in these courses, students only require the 200 Division courses as
prerequisites.
II. OTHER CHANGES - CALENDAR
1.
Changing the calendar entry for Economics Minor Program, Upper Division
Requirements:
FROM:
At least 15 semester hours of upper division credit in Economics or BUEC
courses.
TO:
At least 15 semester hours of upper division credit in Economics or BUEC
courses, taken following the completion of 60 credit hours.
RATIONALE:
To clarify departmental policy.
2.
A number of calendar entries for required courses and prerequisites contain the
phrase 'with a minimum grade of C-" or its equivalent. These phrases are to be replaced
with the following sentence.
In order for a course to be accepted as fulfilling a prerequisite, or for a required
course to be accepted in a student's program in Economics, a student must have obtained
a grade of C- or higher. (See attached).
RATIONALE:
Formerly the C- grade applied to all required courses in the major but the 400
Division courses, and to most in the Honours. The Department has decided to extend
S
this grade to all required course in its program.

 
.
?
3.
?
Change of requirements for major, joint major and honors programs.
FROM:
plus at least one
400
division Economics course.
TO:
plus at least two
400
division Economics courses.
RATIONALE:
To ensure that majors are sufficiently exposed to seminar classes with substantive
essay requirements.
It!. NEW COURSE PROPOSAL
ECON 422-3
Introduction to Noncooperative Game Theory
(Documentation attached)
RATIONALE:
Noncooperative game theory has become a standard tool of economics in the last
decade. The bulk of the economic theory now being published uses noncooperative
game theory as a primary tool, and a great deal of applied work draws on it. In most
graduate programs game theory is an integral, and major part of micro theory--recent
texts aimed at the graduate theory market devote large segments to it. In addition, game
theory is increasingly used in other social sciences and in evolutionary theories from a
variety of disciplines.
?
2. ?
ECON 360-4
Environmental Economics
(Documentation attached)
RATIONALE:
Concern over the issues of exhaustion of resources, destruction of environments
and ecosystems and the effects of residual (air and water pollution) has grown
considerably over the last decade. These issues all involve the allocation of scarce
resources among competing uses, which is the central focus of economics. These tools
have been used to make a significant contribution to the understanding of environmental
issues. The role of the course is to make this contribution more widely known.
.
?
ECON
428-3
Behaviour and Applied Economics
(Documentation attached)
RATIONALE:
Behavioural economics has developed in recent years to become an important
area of research, incorporating newly developed experimental economic methods. It is
important that students at SFU are exposed to this innovative field of investigation.

Objectives oI1hs'Cotsr;
The course would cover the core concepts in noncooperative
?
game theory, and would illustrate their application to a wide range of topics. It
would include at least the following technical topics: the extensive and normal forms
of games, pure strategies and mixed strategies, dominant strategy equilibrium, Nash
equilibrium, and sub-game perfect equilibrium. It would include a variety of
applications, drawn primarily from but not limited to, economics.

Applications
Game theory is a tool. that is widely used in economics and, related disciplines.
Indeed, it's fair to say that game theory is the natural language of economics. This
course will familiarize the student with the basic concepts of game theory, and their
application to problens in a number of areas.
This course carefully, defines what a game is, develops a number of non co-
operative equilibrium concepts for
,
such games, and applies these game theoretic
concepts to a number of areas in economics and-related disciplines.

RATIONALE FOR THE COOPERATIVE EDUCATION PROGRAM IN ENGLISH
The Cooperative Education Program will acquaint our students
with career possibilities where English majors are needed, and
enable them to gain experience in these areas, thus correcting the
impression many students have that a degree in English does not
qualify them for employment as well as degrees in some other
disciplines. The Cooperative Education Program has placed our
students in positions involving administration and social research
in general, and also in work involving more specific literary
skills such as editing magazines, writing public relations
material, or doing technical writing for computer companies. This
sort of experience will give our students a sense of what kind of
career choice they might want to make after graduation, and will
also provide them with an employment history that will help them
get the job they want.

Re: Change of

Date: 21 September, 1990
Pre-requisite
G.S. 499-15
The Faculty of Arts Curriculum Committee at its meeting of
September 6, 1990, approved the attached changes to the pre-
requisite to G.S. 499-15. The Committee had approved a
similar motion in 1987, but due to expected changes in the
Communication Curriculum, the paper was held, and was never
forwarded. The Committee recommends that the University
institute a regulation preventing students from taking more
than one complete semester directed studies course (15 to 18
credits) during their undergraduate degree program. As far
as we are aware only Communications and General Studies have
such courses. (Please refer to attached for details)
Please place this item on the agenda of the next meeting of
S .C.U.S.
Thank you.

It has come to our attention that it has been possible for a students to
take CMNS 498-l5 o
r
CMNS 499-15, resulting in 30 or 33 of the required
45 Upper Division hours bdng taken in two courses of directed studies.
Although Communication is dropping GINS 499 and modifying GINS 498, it
seems desirable to limit student admission to a single full semester
directed study course by changing the prerequisites to C.S. 499 as
indicated on the attached.
The Communication Department has indicated an intention to deny admission
to CMNS 498 to students who have already completed G.S. 499.

Advanced Issues in Geographic Information Systems
Thomas Poiker
Geography 452 is one of a series of three courses that cover the field of Geographic Information
Systems (GIS). Whereas Geog
354
was an introduction into the field and Geog
355
concentrated
on the technical Issues of GIS, Geog 452 explores operational and management issues and has an
extended application period. Particular issues are Ways in which traditional planning and
management theories and techniques can be implemented in GISs. Students will learn which
issues need to be considered when proposing and implementing a new GIS and will have
opportunities to evaluate how GIS can be used to answer specific planning problems. Topics
covered will help students to: discuss the problems of data exchange standards and large
databases; evaluate the use of spatial analysis techniques in the GIS context; describe applications
of GIS in various fields; discuss social impacts of GIS, including legal aspects and effects on
management decisions; describe relevant aspects of the implementation of GIS in an institutional
setting, including incorporation into an agency, cost and benefit, benchmarking, request for
proposals; identify future directions in GIS.

Rationale
The proposed course sequence is intended to provide an introduction to a
native language of the Americas in order to fill a variety of needs in our
program. The courses will find a primary use in outreach programs in native
communities. In fact, the first offering of these courses would come in the
framework of the SFU/Secwepemc Cultural Educational Society (Shuswap)
program taught in Kamloops [see sample outlines]. These new courses will
likewise be of use within the Burnaby Mountain program for Linguistics
majors and graduate students who are encouraged (or required, in the case of
graduate students) to have familiarity with a non-Indo-European language
[presently the only courses offered at SFU that fulfill this requirement are
Chinese and Japanese]. Other potential registrants for the course would come
from programs where there is an interest in native cultures (Anthropology,
Education, Archaeology).
• The courses are designed to provide two semesters of exposure to the
language, which should suffice to gain a reasonable mastery of the overall
structure of the language. It is thus a comprehensive or 'overview' concept
being used here. The courses are hence not conceived as part of a larger
program of language instruction. They are likewise formulated as generic
S
courses so that the focus language can be varied from offering to offering. The
department has expertise across a reasonable variety of such languages. The
courses are designed for the lower division because extensive linguistic
training is not a necessary prerequisite for such surveys, and it is important to
provide accessibility for native students in off-campus programs.

Historical Foundations of Psychology: PS
.
YG 307
Rationale:
The purpose of this course is, to outline the. history of ideas
that led ps.chplogy to its formation as a modern scientific
discipline. The major thinkers whose ideas will be discussed
include Plato, Aristotle, St. Augustine, Plotinus, St. Thomas
Aquinas, Francis Bacon, Locke, Hume, Kant, Darwin, Helmholtz,
Fech.nei, William James and Wundt, among others. The focus is on
cqu
,
inting the student with how
fu,rdam.ental
conceptions of, human
nature, of the nature of reality, of tle, possibility an,d justification
of knowledge, and: of the nature of science contributed to the
development of psychology. Attempt will be made to identify
disinctive views of the human condition--in health, pathology as
well', as happiness--as they developed
.
- in the history of Wesern
thought, and: how they are often reflected' in various contemporary
approaches to theory and
,
practice in psychology. Keeping
,
in mind

.
rary psych o.l'og.y--psychoan.alysis,
behaviorism, humanism, cognitie psychology etc.--,special effOrt
will ,
be made to identify and explain their historical roots and
concep,tyal foundations, so as to provide, a basis for their
me.aringful cQMpqrison and scholarly critiqye. Attempt will also be

Topical Outline:
(Chapter or page numbers of the basic text are not given here
since the students can easily identify the appropriate material on
any thinker or topic from whatever text a given instructor might
use. Each Instructor would recommend selected additional source
material for each topic for each topic. Following is a typical week-
by-week list of topics.)
Week 1 : Introduction: Why study of history of psychology? A
historical perspective on the development of knowledge: The views
of Comte and Kuhn: paradigms and revolutions in scientific thought.
Week 2 : Presocratic thinkers: Thales; Parminides and Heraclitus:
Being versus Becoming; Democritus: origins of materialism. Plato:
on ideal society; the tripartite psyche; the ideal of inner harmony in

Week 5 : Plotinus: the psychology of mystical states. The
development of Judeo-Christian thought: St. Augustine: the doctrine
of free will; personal introspection and the subjectivist legacy.

conceptualism and their implications for psychology. Faith-reason
controversy: St. Thomas Aquinas' reconciliation of faith and reason.
Week 6 .: The rise of science: the changing views of the universe and
?
S
the, place of human within it: Copernicus, Vesalius, Harvey. Francis
acon: attack on Aristotelian teleology, and deductive reasoning.
Galileo: science versus the Inquisition. Descartes' separation of the
domains-of science and causally determined matter on the one hand
and theology and free soul on the other. The "mind-body problem."
Week 7 : Hobbes: mental events as motion of particles in the brain.;
modern parallels of the Hobbesian' view of human beings; freedom as
lack of obstruction.
MID-TERM EXAMINATION: in class
Week 8 : Locke: rejection "innate ideas": mind as empty slate;

.Ra'tiona.le
oder.n psychology began in the 19th century with a
?
clear break from the older speculative tradition and a union
ith the new traditions of experimental physiology and
psyhiatric medicine. P:sychoiogy.3O8 deals with 'the
tnediat'e antecedents of the 19th
,
ntury break, considers
?
the unders of the new psychology, and traces its :evolution
nti1 the present.
Key figures in this history include 'Fechner, •W.undt,

Dewey., Catteil, Hail, atspn, thall

, the discovery of the lawful
decay of nemoriers,, the ewelopment of techniques for

7
the systematic measurement :o f

the measurement of personality
tra:its the elucidation of reinforceneflt

The course has two main aims. The first IS to torganaze
the multitude of idre:as that populate nodern psycho logy Into
coherent tr:aditioaS with distinct but inter—related
histories. The second Is to describe the entire history in
terms of its common themes and its emerging sense of

Historical and Theoretical Issues in Psychology
?
PSYC 402: Course outline
Rationale:
This course examines classical issues of historical and theoretical significance in
various areas of contemporary psychology: the mind-body problem with reference to
approaches to consciousness; empiricism vs. rationalism with reference to behaviorism
and phenomenology; nature-nurture problem in human development; hedonist and other
views of happiness in relation to current research in emotion, self-actualization, or
higher reaches of mental health, and so on. Since many students begin to develop interest
in specific areas of psychology while taking upper level courses, participants-in this
seminar are usually encouraged to undertake historical analysis of issues in their areas
of interest.
The seminar in the history of psychology, like seminars in most other areas,
offers flexibility in terms of focus on specific topics, emphasis, or approach within
designated fields of study. Students are often encouraged to write papers or make
seminar presentations on particular topics of their interest, and these assignments often
count for a significant portion of their course credit. The instructors tend to rely on a
selection of book chapters and journal articles placed on reserve, rather than single
standard, survey type texts commonly used for the lower level courses. Whatever be the
specific area of interest for the student or the instructor--developmental, social,
physiological and so on--historical analysis of issues is most usually combined with
interest in theory. Relatively few instructors who teach courses in the history of
psychology are, interested in actually digging into archives and practice historiography.
Indeed,. currently hardly any one in, the psychology department is involved with
historiography or archival research. For many instructors, it is the interest theory
(often meaning various issues in the philosophy of science) that stimulates interest in.
teaching history.
Interest in. Theoretical Psychology is growing rapidly over the past several years
in North America and Europe. It is a relatively new label for an area of study that
integrates the traditionally allied areas of history, philosophical psychology, and the
philosophy of science. Separate divisions or interest groups have recently developed in
APA and CPA in the area of Theoretical Psychology, and a new International Society for
Theoretical Psychology has been founded and is flourishing during the past five years.
The change in title of the former "Seminar in the History of Psychology" to "Historical
and Theoretical Issues in Psychology" indicates first, the close relationship between
history and theory in psychology, and second, the current trend in the field at the
national and international levels. It is natural to expect that important current trends
in the field are reflected appropriately in our graduate as well as undergraduate
curricula. At the University of Victoria, for instance, a separate undergraduate seminar
in theoretical psychology is already in place. In our department, since we have always
had a seminar in the history of psychology where theoretical issues have usually been
discussed, the proposed change in its name partly reflects the already existing state of
affairs, while at the same time reflecting the growing usage of the label 'theoretical
psychology".
Texts:
Despite the fact that prescribed readings for most 400 level seminars commonly
involve selections of book chapters and journal articles rather than single text books,
some instructors teaching the seminar in history in recent years have chosen the
following types of texts:

Subject: SM Calendar Revisions
,Sociology & Anthropology proposes two course description revisions for incorporation in the
1991-1992 Calendar. The first pertains to SAI00-4 (Canadian Social lssus). the second to
SA4684 (Er;olotic& Anthropology).
The description for SA 100 now reads
"SA 100-4
Canadian Social Issues
(SA) An introductory examination of Canadian social
issues. The course will focus on topical questions and problems, providing both a social scientific
analysis and a set of analytical tools for the student. Topics will vary from semester to semester
but might include such issues as: multiculturalism, qender inequality, class structure,
demographic change, native rights, free trade, and the future of Canada. (Lecture/Tutorial)
We wish to rename the course and revise the description as follows:
SA100 - '1
Perspectives on Canadian Society (SA)
An examination of Canadian society from
the perspective'of the social sciences -- an introduction both to the nature of Canadian society anilt
to the use of sociological and anthropoloqical concepts applied to the analysis of modern societies in
general. This course is meant to appeal to those who specifically wish to expand their knowledge of
Canadian society, and also to those who may be considering further work in sociology andi
anthropology. Topics to be considered include class structure, the nature of Canada's population,
reaion& variation, Qender relations, multiculturalism,native issues.
