Delegates to the National Union of Students! Union Nationaledes
Etudiants conference in Ottawa on October 3 passed the following motion after
attending intensive information workshops on tuition, student unemployment and
the current renegotiation of the Fiscal Arrangements Act. As you may be aware,
N
US/UNE is engaged in an educational campaign on issues in post-secondary
' ed-
ucation which will culminate in National Student Day on November 9. Thi call
for a National Inquiry into post-secondary education is, in part, the reult of
the information campaign to date.
MOTION:
WHEREAS accessibility of education is threatened by regressive fiscal
policies at all levels of government;
AND WHEREAS this is having serious effects on the quality of post-
secondary education;
AND WHEREAS there is no national or provincial educational policy
. ?
in relation to post-secondary education;
AND WHEREAS both federal and provincial governments have failed, to
date, to develop, in a public and accountable manner, a comprehensive
educational policy;
AND WHEREAS the total absence of discussion and articulationiof
educational policies in this country has led to a disjointed, incoherent
pattern of development in post-secondary education, resulting in irrational
educational policies implemented by default;
AND WHEREAS the present renegotiation of the Fiscal Arrangements Act
has long-term implications for the future direction of post-secondary ed-
ucation
in Canada;
AND WHEREAS the public has a right to know and, further, to participate
in the development and direction of post-secondary education for all
Canadians:
BE IT RESOLVED that the Simon Fraser University Senate call upon the
federal government, in consultation with the provincial government', to
establish a national inquiry into current issues, long-term direction, and
goals, and financing of post-secondary education in Canada. This inquiry
to invite public submissions on the following areas of concern:
1.
Issues relating to accessibility to post-secondary education
in Canada
2.
The quality, scope and function of post-secondary education
3.
The degree of public financial committment to post-second4ry
education.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this proposed national inquiry be con-
ducted by a Board of Inquiry consisting of: federal and provincial govern-
ment representatives; representation of the academic community incuding

students and faculty selected by their representative national bodies;
labour; business; and community representatives.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Board of Inquiry hold public'
?
hearings across Canada and make public their findings and recommendations.
The motion outlined above is currently being circulated to university
Senates and Boards of Governors, College Councils, faculty associations, student
unions and on-campus staff unions across Canada in an attempt to draw attention
to the need for a comprehensive national policy on education which will dlarify
the purpose of post-secondary educational institutions in contemporary Canadian
Society.
We have included the External Examiners' Report on Educational Policy
in Canada of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development which
Provides considerable background on this question as well as a rationale for the
N
ational Inquiry. To quote the report:
329. ?
The further development of Canadian educational policy is the
clearly approaching a danger zone, in which more is at risk than simply the
quantity of finance available. The virtues of an essentially pragmatic educational
policy will be tested in the extreme. If those responsible for educational policy
are not promptly able to base the development of school and education on a firm
goal oriented footing, then they risk being pushed to the side in the geieral
political competition for resources.

The official visit to Canada by the OECD
examiners on
which the following report is based,
occupied the entire month of June. 1975. taking its
the length and breadth of this continental
country, from the Northwest Territories to the
eastern-moat tip of Nova Scotia. 01 course, the main
point
of
this experience was not geography. The
Canadian authorities had arranged an intensive
round
of visits, conferences and conversations with
a wide-ranging sample of personalities and groups
who in public, official, private or unofficial capacities
are concerned with education in Canada. A special
committee of the Caidian Council
of
Education
Ministers, the staff ol the Council. regional and pro-
vincial authorities and Federal officials did indeed
attempt to respond to the examiners' searching
queries for information from all possible sources
relevant to educational policy issul's in their arIas.

eet' to the Provincial 5vrn
cc .i'n I that tried lii place this tradition of local self-
government in fundamental question. Wite% too, to the
F'i'dt'ral government, that would seek to infringe on
the rights of the Provinces, no inailer with what
good intentions in mind. From a the'oreticl and tra-
ditional point of view, no l'recvine'ial gc.s-e'
?
rnmnl
e' could
place' the principle of local sell-government seriously
in question. Yet the reality of the educational guvi'r.
ounce developments of the past 10-15 years shows a
decisive move away from Local school autonomy.
Similarly, the assumed strict theoretical and con-
stitutional limits on the Federal government's com-
petent-u in educational matters have proved to be
fairl y
elastic in practice.
10. While decent rahisation of the provision

66. Although the Examiters' final judgement
of
the expansion of Canadian education is definitely
and over-whelmingly positive, they have the task
also to point to the problems and difficulties
which stand out. They are the inevitable result of
rapid. sometimes even impetuous quantitative growth;
they are also the result of those complicated
conditions of development, referred to above (6).
MI4CT
problems
17.
The Examiners have identified a
number
of
problems that appear to be of major importance
for the' future development of education in Canada.
The y
are presented at this point in rather summary
Iashieen,and they are dealt with more extensively in
the sue-reeding chapters eel this Report.
6$. The problem of the
eseler.preh'qre
groups: The schools as presently organised do not
seem to be the best possible instruments for
providing underprivileged
I
groups with equal
opportunities. Should the schools be changed anti.
f so, how is this to be done
.
? and at what level
if i's? Should the goal of equality of opportunity
he at least temporarily abandoned, because it is not
Iezi.iteie: or shL other hrode'r approaches be tried.

'liii' ereehk'm of the a/elsa oj
neong ai
i'eerk'
Should the se'heeeel tackle neere directly and forcefully
one problem which lois eleip cultural and social
implications and which seems to
be
at the root of
social sir;etificati.en among and within schools, as
well as being one basic cause for the rejection
eat sociallyundt'rprivitege'd children? Are Canadians
ready to tackle the problem of developing a
humanism", which would encompass manual work.
the fine and liberal arts, technology and actenre,
integrating these' major strands of human activity
into a new synthesis? And what role should the
schools play in this task?
70.
The problem isf povidietg lull educational
opportunities tee heeeee/e'e,ppe'i/
rleeldres,
a task that
has, with it few beeneurable exceptions, been
grievously neglected in Canada.
71.
'l'he' 1r,,lik'tie if the qeeeilit,
cefrdacaluen.
This se'e'nis its have be'e'eeme e public issue precisely
because uI the high costs that have had to be paid
to ensure equality of access: taxpayers everywhere
want assurance that what appears to them to be
e'straeerilinarily generous levels of school financing
are yielding commensurate returns.
But, in fact,
the
problem eel quality is of fundamental impuwtse%e'e
more because the term "quality" has * very
different meaning in the new complex permissive
schools thin it did in the uni.diriwnsioatal
institutions of the past. Now, the term has taken on
connotations of the quality of human relations and
the supportive quality of the school environment for
arhie.
v,'ment, expression snd creativity. To meet the
challenge of "quality", thus defined, will partly
involve training for the practice of new social shills,
interpersonal re'lstionskips and modes of group
action in a contest of individualised learning and the
disappearance of the traditional threats. discipline and
external sanctions of
the
school. Canadian schools
must begin to lace this problem, even if its
the most
tentative way.
72.
The problem of the relationships of the
school tee the community, of its development as a
cultural centre and as the leadership element in
adult e'elucatieen. Is it better to let different. perhaps
conflicting, initiative's develop that will motivate
people ,
more; or should one try to take a broader
comprehensive approne'h with the
schusioll
playing a
leadership role? Canadian education is already faring
these' problems well ahead of most European
countries.
73.
The problem of local involvement in
elerieciune making, which is
often
posed (incorrectly
in the Examiners' vie'wl as is choice between
"crnIealisatio" and "de'crntratisatio". or Provincial
authorities u'e'cavs the local school boards,
71.
The problem of defining goals for
education that fit* viceieaa of the national usterest, and
of devising mechanisms to assist in the process
of definition and implementation. in a national
framework. During the beginning stages of a great
social movement. such as the massive re-development
of are educational system, a pragmatic approach may
permit a great variety of different forma of progress
and results to be achieved tax the Examiners
observed again and agata in Canadat Yet, in the
longer run, it will certainly be necessary to direct
the upsurge of change in the direction of a en-
operatively planned path, for there are signs that
'the impetus of reform is slackening, even in
Canada. The sooner a workable path toward
stating definite goals is footed, the
sooner acceptable
criteria fee making reform decisions will be discovered,
and the better will things be for the further
development eel the Canadian educational system,
461 ?
iw.
voecegoetce

75.
For, although a great deal eel optimism
persists and pragmatically relaxed attitudes abound,
the educational policy climate has changed
fundamentally in the
last
few years. The reformers
who nailed gaily ahead of the wind land who spent
m pey freely) for the past 20 years. now find that
the wind is blowing directly in their faces. The
turnabout is not as sharp as in many other countries,
but it is distinctly there to be seen. Everywhere the
talk is about economies, and restrictive, measures
have become common. Care is taken not to further
sorer unwilling taxpayers: the great enthusiasm of
the 1960's is muted; and new public tasks are
coming to the fore (together with their financial
demandsi, in place of education.
76.
In this new e'limatt', a e1Ulie pre1e'
sense of optimism about the medium and longer
term future of e'due'atiien in Canada is tempered
01W
by a realistic appraisal of future' tasks aced
possibilities, anti by ae.sieunal ce rrssuMs eel nen.oelecia
and disappointment. This Exaeeiine'r" lte'1eeert is
prese'nte'd with the hope and aim elf assisting that
process of appraisal.
III. REALISATION OF EQUALITY
OF EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY
77, All over the world, the scheeul reform
movements of the last 15 years have taken their
point of departure' from the demand for equality
of educational opportunity for all e'hdelrc'n, irre'eupee'mevi'
of their origin. locality, rare' or se's. The seee'ci'ssciln
of efforts that has been made tei serve this goal
maybe divided into three' phase's.
Three phases
7$. In the first phase, it was hoped that
equality of educational opportunity could be' achie's'ed
by
affording children free access to all schools in
their localities. The belief was that this approach
would suffice to open to all children . even those
from the submerged social groups . access to schools
that would lead on to further opportunities, and
that this would be the way to remove inequalities
and injustices. In most retuntriex, these hope's were
not reslied. Most of these children were not able
to succeed in the traditional programmes of the
schools, or showed themselves so little' interested
in them that they dropped out at the end of the
periud of compulsory schooling, or sometimes even
earlier.
79.
After it had lets'ewne' v'v'iele'eit that, wherever
it had been tried. wider access tee irheeveleng would
not skew guarantee' equality of educational opportunity.
a beginning was made to understand the exceptionally
complex causes of inequality and to try remedial
treasures through cumpe'asator
y
education.
$0, Emphasis on preschool education came
also in this
second
phase, although much of the
drive to establish preschool provisiuen thrived (rum
thte desire to free women for work in the labour
market. Moreover, there is no
clear
evidence that
preschool education, as usually organised and
practised, promotes equality.
$1. In addition, the se'eienet phase eu, the
introduction of more practice oriented u'eelrvcs. which
certainly did help produce' a perceptible decline in
the number of dropouts, especially when used in
conjunction with the adequate counsellin g
Joel
appropriate changes in teaching neethods, e'urree'ulurei
materials, and the like',
112.
However, even the most cencepreheoeise'

opportunity that children e'xp.'ree'ele't'.
'Thus began the third, and certainly m.i.t deifu'ult
phase'. The atte'nilet was made to eee'cru'eime the

we're' some' notable programmes cited.
176.
If, in general, among the educated
gi-oupte
in Canada, there- iv heard a constant complaint
concerning the preeleeneinant influence of the United
States and Europe in cultural and artistic affairs,
this is surely one consequence of the' neglect
within Canada of the nurture of artistic talents in
,ie'heiuls and in educational efforts generally. Certainly,
talented creativity cannot be made out of thin air,
and artistic interests and demands cannot be
forced into existence. But a patient and steady
development effort would surely produce a rich
harvest in the foreseeable future, and make a
positive contribution to the formulation eta Canadian
national identity,
177.
The Eaamiieero must also state their
conclusion that there is a similar neglect in this
area
of ph
ysical
e'dearalio*. Not only is there a lack of
teacher, and of a broadly laced progranuns t.hrmeghmut
the entire school curriculum.
ITS. Physical education has
.00 often been
viewed simply in term- of the development of team
sports, or of "physical jerks", Its contribution to
the aesthetic and rhythmic elements in
young
1
ieciple's lives has been broadly neglected and needs
eceririus sttentiomi and development.
Opportunities Inc
women
179 The principle of equality of educations
opportunity is valid for both
sexes.
There or
slightly more females than males enrolled inthe senier
high schools, but in the tertiary sector, the proportio
of
females falls. The proportion of females ii
college enrolment is 45,8 per cent: in the universitie
it is 36.9 per cent. Only 24.7 per cent of graduat
students were female in 1971-72. Only 12.8 pe
cent of full-time university teachers are women (1972
3.4 per cent of the full professors, 13.8 per cent
0
the associate professors, and 31) per cent of the
assistant professors. Moreover, many of these or
teaching in the so-called "women's subjects" (home
economics, nursing, and languages). so that the under
representation of women in the teaching staffs o:
the tertiary sector is much worse in many subject
areas than the figures cited above convey. The share
of women in leading positions in administration and
policy-making in universities and colleges is as low
as it is elsewhere.
Ica In addition, although there are
approximately three women (ice' every two men serving
as teacher, in the elementary, and secondary schools.
there appear to he' few women holding position'
of administration arid policy-tasking in the school
system. ?
(
38*, It
is
ptihle to conclude' that access to
all educational institutions is certainly
iets
. n to female's,
but that there are few measures taken to open
access to the higher let alone' the highe'stt positions
in teaching and administration, The E.s:emin,-rs
were assured that efforts are being made lit ri-me-dy
this. It is to be hoped that the women the-mice-Is-c's
will take thought and at-lion to support these' effort.

It is no longer an institution gene-rated by a

limited member of generally accepted fundamental
values. Today, the schools are situated it the
intersection between the society of today and the
society of tomorrow - something which does fleet
yet eaist and which no-one can clearly define.
191. In a very short period of time, the'
school has taken on new responsibilities and its
r at the very centre of society has been considerably
modified. In vain, the school searches for a particular
specified set of knowledge, attitudes, and value's
that it should impart. Today, it has to strive iii

national identity, which would otherwise have tended
to dissolve In the larger context of English-speaking
North America if it were not for a stubborn adherence
to their language and culture by the French-
Canadians,
169.
For this reason alone, positive
measures
for developing French culture in Canada with Federal
financial assistance may be the true road to a sense
of Canadian nationhood, that incorporates both
linguistic cultures, paradoxical though that may assess.
Spending large sums of money to improve the
teaching of each other's Languages as

may have to be subordinated to giving help on a
grand enough scale to maintain the French language
as a living language- in all the regions within
each Province where the French-speaking community
is strong enough.
170.
The Examiners would favour the creation
of a national council for French cultural development,
created with tide-ru! neonee. The rationale for such
a council would be the need to develop the cultural

that the formulas do typically take into

114. The array
of grants from Provincial
(and
Federal) authorities has produced a situation
where, in two Provinces iNew Brunswick and Prince
Edward Island), all public elementary and secondary
school expenditures, are borne by the Provincial or
Federal authorities, and in Newfoundland the local
share is less than I per cent of the total. Only
in British Columbia is the Provincial shirt lean
than one-half of the total, and even there it exceeds
the local share. On average in Canada, the
Provincial authorities pay roughly two dollars for
every one dollar spent on schools by the local
authorities (see Table 91. Nevertheless, the value of
decentralisation continues to be insisted upon.
perhaps in recognition of the fact that the degree
of centralisation or decentralisation of the provision
of financial resources may bear little relationship
to the degree of erntrlised or decentralised
decision-making.
195.
Iii/i'rmotwsai policr.t
iiusfr'um.sia also
appear to be increasingly used by provincial
governments. Some of themost common are:
• The central production of curriculum
materials reaches substantial levels in many
Provinces, which pertly explains the large
central staff found in some of them.
• "Supervisory" functions at central and
regional level employ a large number
of
people, many of whom act as "expert
consultants" with a di' facto combination of
advisory and cnntrolling functions.
• Forms of evaluation of local programmes.

196.
Ii follows from 'all the above that
Provincial governments have at their disposal a wide
variety of policy instruments, capable
of
shaping
polities not only at the sthool board level. but even
within the individual school and clasarcmm. It is
alao evident that Provincial administration discs nut
he.itate to use surh instruments when the need is
felt.
Local weaknesses are therefore rarely to
be
attributed to observance of some general principle
of Provincial respect for local autonomy. but tither
to a lack of concern for such weaknesses or, in
am* cases,
ti, political weaknrss preventing

200. Probably the traditional small school
boards had far better contacts with the local
community, and also more influence on the relatively
small schools themselves. The consolidation of
school board areas is bound to create a considerable
distance between elected representatives and their
constituencies. This may partly explain the high
frequency of election by acclamation, and the l,iw
participation rate in school board elections. Added to
this, however, is the general absence of election
"platforms", specifying the candidates' particular
academic and pedagogical proposals. V,its'rs in s,hie,l
leotard elections v,'rv racily hs'i' a si'nsi
that

schools. The fairly heavy work burden Ion irlisi'
school hoard m.'nIhs'rs, e'specialls in large schoicl
boards, is another hindrance to broad participation.
261.
In total.
the
school board institutciin
appears to function as a guarantee. of rrintr..l fly
established local interests. Increased autonomy for
local school boards lwhich, incidentally, does nut
necessarily depend upon a larger shire of the local
property tart in school financing, or such uiirnii. of
financing at all) may create some more variation
within the school
system,
though largely In tu'rnis
of inequality of resources that are devcsi,'d to ',c'hiuucl
provision. Moreover, it is rather doubtful whether
more power for the school boards would in any
real sense mean more community involvement.
262.
An alternative, tentatively tried in some
Provinces, would be' to establish direct relationships
between the individual school and the parents
involved. This may, in fact, lead to more community
involvement, though probably
the
social biases built
into the school hoard institution could will prevail
in such new parental bodir,

U?. With reference to the open frustration
that
exists. the Examiners have only
the
following
general
observation, to make:
S
At every appropriate opportunity. teachers
should be given the ample encouragement
and praise of school authorities, parents and
the public that their heavy responalbWtiaa
lead them to deserve.
• Teachers* organisations should he drawn late

• Instead they should make every effort.

• They should continue with undiminished

manage to discharge faithfully their duty
to be "good
stewards of the schools, their needs and their
care's. But, there are scares of examples that might
be cited.
239. The attitude of the Canadianauthorities
to the interest groups seems to the E.xameaera to
be strangely ambivalent. On the oar hand, interest
groups were, if anything. over-represented in
the
hearings arranged by the Ministries that the Eaamirier.
conducted. On the other hand, it was observed
that theauthorities usually took a rather negative'
positiOn. whenever the Examiners suggested that it
would help if the interest groups had a stronger
and more secure rule in the process of educational
decision-making.

frequently. No doubt this "turning inward" is to be
expected at a time when immediate employment

The Examiners regard the treatment iii

Leo
distant, and not sufficiently supportive
in terms of money and encouragement. Herr, toO,
the remarks made with re'kreni'e to encouraging
the interest of school children are in order: In a
democracy it is not enough that those in authority
bethink themselves constantly in the interests 1
students. They must create the situation white
students have the opportunity to think their ian

student organisations are relevant. They should net
simply be tolerated: they must be supported. ifthey
are not to wither away. or indulge themselves in
violent reaction to frustration that serve's only to
fulfill the authorities' worst fears.
249. In a number of Provinces a new ink
between the people and the school is being deve'Iiiptd
in the (oars ofroirnmunky schimix. These are schools
that are open to the local community, or to the ilty
district. Not only are all the school resources, from
the gymnasium to the library open to the eeti'.ecns.
Even more important is the opportunity',or parents
to take part is school activities at any time. as
well as the chance for older people to take part in
novel programmes of adult education, work with
Young people and so forth. In addition, the frequent
use of schools for adult education activities as
a
step in the right direction. A well-run community
school can bring community and schi,ol nearer
together than can any theoretical discussions. Such
models
can be emphatically recommended for imitation
and further development.

the contribution the suitor is making to achieving

291. Underlying those two questions may be
a third: Should Federal resources presently devoted
to education and training be reallocated to other
fields of policy, which may now have a higher priority?
to the Examiners' view, it would be most undesirable
If consideration of these important questions were
to go
forward at the Federal level alone, without
systematic consultation with the Provinces as a
wèole,
293.
At present, discussions. negotiations and
agreements betwerti the Federal government and the
Provinces in educational matters tend to go forward
on if bilateral, or piecemeal, basis. This procedure
may answer certain Provincial (and Federal)
political needs, but It has unfortunately also made
much more difficult the task of making something
more systematic out of the highly fractionated
structure of education in Canada. The need now
is to put In place greatly improved mechanisms for
iotcrProvinciai co-operation, and for Fedcral.Provinrial
discussion and co-operation on a multilateral basis.
Iiatar-Pre'rtorlxtl co-operation

In the framework of the OECD Exami
nation it in not possible to inquire to what extent
Section 93 of the British North America Act is in
tact an insuperable barrier to change. However.
there have been some interesting statements made
in this regard, notably by J.A. Corry. s respected
constitutional lawyer, who doubts that this is so.
and bs said sam the following words:
o whatever the dilemma shout education
in the Canadian federation is. it is nota
constitutional one. Indeed
S.93
is a model of
flexibility. Whenever it
becomes
clear that
special educational provision is needed to carry
out responsibilities undertaken by Parliament
the exercise of its exclusive powers in 8.91.
Parliament is entitled to make that provision
by whatever means and instrumentalities Sr.'
required in the circumstances. As so often turns
out in this country, obstacles to action that
are declared to be formidable constitutional
barriers turn out to be merely political. 'flat
ma y not make the problem any easier to
deal with but at least one can make a start
by removing the "no trespassing" signs in)
opening up Fcde'ral'Pruvincial cunsullatiuns."(24(
297.
Inds'e'tt, who can maintain seriously that
the fathers of the IINA Act had ruled against s,'nsihle

in the field of educational pithy?

What can and whit sh,u(il happen.

concerning future developments. in the far,' of new
problems and ever more rapid t'hang.'s, can in,-
go on an before? Or is it not a matter of the tint's
calling for a search for new ways of ruups'ratii.n?
290.
The political situation at present
absolutely excludes the possibility of a solution via
constitutional change. That a single ,'duu'att,t,.al
authority should be .'sthlihed, under the auspices
of the l'a'osins'es and the Federal government as
if

The minutes of the Examiners' meetings
and conversations reveal that without exception all
organisations, as weill as most spokesmen for
educational institutions are demanding more and better
trans-Provincial co-operation and goal setting. There
was not one voice that regarded such co-operstinn
as an infringement on Provincial sovereignty and

APPENDIX B
IND
USTRIALISATION OF
?
EDUCATION
I. It is interesting to note bow far many Canadian
schools have moved towards a traditional industrial
concept of the organisalion of educational services.
More importantly, nearly everywhere the Examiners
found a further development in this direction
stated as the ideal model to aim for. It may be
worthwhile to consider the main principles of such
organisational forms.
The General Principles
2. The starting point within the schools is a
traditional hierarchical organisation, often with some
paternalistic features. Key concepts in the development
towards industrial organisation is division of labour
and responsibilities, combined with increasing
specialisatjon. The "ideal" school should have specialist
services in such fields as various for of diagnosis
of children, taxi preparation and i
ms
nterpretation,
P sycholog ical
guidance and counselling, drvrlopnsent
iii curriculum and curriculum materials, documentation
alit' library services, use of audja-vittual materials.
hi-alth M'rs in's, various forms of learning difficulties
and special handicaps, cot-uI and recreational
activities. etc. The list could easily he made longer.
In principle, such functions are assumed to be a
service i
t
) the teacher in performing his'he'r job.
In practice. however. the authority relationship
between the specialist and the ordinary teacher is
such that the- spm'iulis(s take' over most relevant
decisions cunra-rning both the children and the
function, of the
ordinary teacher.
There is little
left for a teacher to do except to be with the
children and to deliver preprogrammed teacher
ba'haaji,urs,
:4.
In
o,-alrr lii
restore
authority balance, the
Is'ichi-rs tend to develop roles as specialists In
their own
right.
The traditional subject teachers
can It-an on tb, ri'cogniseij authority of the
established
sc
ientific disciplines. At teaching levels
where such ('irma of specialisation are too obviously
irrelevant for teaching, one gets the peculiar form
"
of sps'ciah,sotco* i'x.'mplifieij by such title's, as,
spi'a'ialis( in filth grade
(tacking".
We see repeated
the traditional li'aturi's of industrial orgunisatioo,
where every 'sorter bec'iit*s a specialist on a
s
l.i'eilic aspect of the priiduetio

Ideally speaking the various specialists within

y
hspprns, partly because
font' of the specialists have the ability to judge
their own functions sail relates to the total process,
hut primarily because each group of specialists
deniands control over its particular function, without
interference from "non specialists". The so-called
"sa'rvicea" or "staff font-lions" have developed into
traditional decision making units with exclusive
authority' typical of bureaucratic hierarchies. We get
a caricature of a "pr'ifesiiinalisi

which
each little specialist group insists upon "profesaiooal"
authority, as experts on their particular function.

a new setting, and that the vocational aspects of
the school were considered sultorditeate to this larger
