[]
Some concern was
,
expressed regarding the specification of "up
to 20 hours a week lab time" in the rationale for increasing the
credit hours, and S. Smith explained that the phrasing was an attempt
at some precision as up to 20 hours per week may be devoted by some
students.
Moved by A. Hollibaugh, seconded by J. P. Daem,
"That Motion 3 be referred back to SCUS
for clarification and reevaluation of the
hours that should be assigned to ARC. 373."
S. Aronoff advised that when the matter was under extensive dis-
cussion at the meeting of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies
the question was raised whether additional credit beyond this should
not be given, but the consensus was that the Department was fully aware
of the amount of time spent and this was reasonable value. J. P. Daem
suggested that the Committee should look at the relationship of the
amount of time put into a course versus the credit given so that all
students of average ability will be spending the same amount of time.
K. Rieckhoff stated that lab courses are kept open-ended so that students
can spend extra hours, but A. Hollibaugh was of the opinion that if a
course requires extra time there should be extra credit..
Question was called on the motion to refer, and a vote taken.
MOTION TO REFER FAILED
9 in favor
14 opposed
Amendment was moved by R. Kissner, seconded by J P. Daem,
"That the following wording be added to the
course description in the calendar for ARC.
373: 'Up to 20 hours laboratory time may
be required per week."'
R. Kissner was of the, opiniQn that .a student should be. aware of
what is required, but P. Copes said that the Archaeology Department.doeè
not require 20 'hours of laboratory time 'and that the rationale statement
was merely an indication that students, of their own volition, spend up
to 20 hours in the lab.

In reply to a question posed by J. Ellis, the Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies said that the vector des-

K. Rieckhoff enquired as to the reasons for the discontinuation
of the use of the Mathematics laboratory. D., DeVoretz advised that
due to changes in technology and the availability of. desk calculators
reliance on Mathematics laboratories was no longer required. K.
Rieckhoff felt that detailed consideration must be given to ensure
that University facilities are being used to their best advantage and
that there is no unnecessary duplication of resources. The Chairman
concurred, and said that the matter regarding the utilization of
Mathematics laboratories would be investigated further.

Commenting on the amendment, P. Copes advised that the Department
had found through experience that there were two categories of students
who take COMM 337-3 - students who wish to specialize in computer
science, and those who don't, and the choice of prerequisites services
both categories.
K. Rieckhoff spoke in opposition, to the amendment, suggesting
that a change of this type should be scrutinized by SCUS before being
presented to Senate. T. Sterling advised that, due to the fact that
the Computing Science program has not been completely implemented, the
course available at the present time that fulfils the needs of Economics
337 is Computing 001. He indicated that a more appropriate course
would be available at a later stage of the implementation of the

Moved by S. Smith, seconded by R. Brown,
"That Senate approve, as set forth in S.73-135,
the new course proposal for Economics 309-5 -
Introduction to Marxian Economics."
K. Rieckhoff questioned the offering of a course of this type when
only one faculty member was available to give instruction, and suggested
that, in terms of good scholarship, a student should be exposed to more
than one view on a controversial subject

magnitude of the reading, assignment, although it was understood that not

for reducing the number from 400 to 300 and increasing the credit hours

P. Copes responded that this was an exclusive' offering taught 'by
an experienced faculty member who measured the workload, and from experience
it was considered that it was more appropriate to be offered as a 300
division course with 5 credits.
It was noted that the calendar description of ECON 309-5 had not

499-10 and the Department's approach to an

'2) to examine directed study courses with' a
view to establishing a consistent University-
wide policy regarding them."
Speaking to his motion, R. Kissner stressed the need for the estab-
lishment of consistency in relation to University policy pertaining to
the credit hours assigned to Honors Thesis courses. He also wished to
know why there was not some deletion of directed studies courses in
Psychology. K. Rieckhoff spoke against the motion to refer on the basis
that, although consistency was desirable, it must be reasonable con-
sistency to provide flexibility where required.

Speaking to the motion, J. Ellis noted that the same number of
hours credit for directed studies courses existed for both the General
and Honors programs. He suggested that at least the same proportion
of hours should exist for both programs with the proportion to be
established by the Department. S. Smith referred to the rationale
which indicated that this had received consideration by the Department
and it had deliberately restricted the number of credit hours to 8.

J. D'Auria questioned a comment on page 3 of the paper which
stipulated that Education 422 is required as a pre- or co- requisite,
while the calendar description indicated that this course would
normally be taken concurrently. D. Birch advised that 422 is
required as either •a pre- or co- requisite, but normally would be a
corequisite, as both courses are offered in the Summer semester. D.
DeVoretz, on a point of information, asked if the vector description
of 0-1-3 represented the standard relationship to the weight given

taken as part of the Professional Development Program and as such
requires some specific elements within that Program. In response
to questions from R.-Kissner, L. Prock said that the Program was
open to Psychology students. She also advised that the reasons the
Program was in the Faculty of Education were, first, because it was
developed in that Faculty and, second, that the Minor is related to
extensive field work and to the educational sphere dealing with
children rather than being clinical.

this statement was omitted from the calendar description. M. McClareñ
agreed that these changes should be made.
J. P. Daem, referring to the Biology Department's practice of
waiving the requirements to take Biology 101 and 102 if a student has
taken Biology Ii and 12, asked if the same practice would be followed
for thisMinor. M. McClaren considered that the intent was to follow
this procedure, however, this normally would be done in consultation

4. Senate Committee on Agenda and Rules
1. Paper S.73-153 (Former S.73-126) - Senate Rule - Reports of
Committees
Moved by A. MacPherson, seconded by A. Hollibaugh,
"That Senate adopt the Rule on submission of
Reports by Committees to Senate, as set forth
in Paper S.73-153 (former S.73-126) to be
effective at the conclusion of the present
meeting of Senate."
A. MacPherson requested a small editorial change for clarification
in paragraph 1 h) of Paper S.73-153, altering the second sentence to read,
"Where Senate ratification of
•
decisions made by a committee
is required it shall be sought at the time of the submission
of the committee's report; in the event of Senate failing to
ratify such decision or decisions of a committee, the decision
or decisions shall stand, and the Senate's failure to ratify
shall be interpreted as an instruction to the committee
involved that actions of that type shall not be repeated."
The Chairman ruled that the change would be made.
Amendment was moved by K. Rieckhoff, seconded by J. P. Daem,
"That thefol].owing sections be added to Item 2
- Form of Reports of Committees to Senate:
e)
where possible prQs and cons considered should
be appended with any recommendations.
f)
minority reports and recommendations should be
permitted."
Moved by D. Birch, seconded by A. Hollibaugh,
"That this paper be referred to the Senate Com-
mittee on Agenda and Rules with instructions to

consider the points raised."
S. Aronoff asked that section d) of Item 2 include the basis upon
which recommendations are made, and J. Wheatley said the description of
committees was not adequate. He considered that a distinction, as to
the class of activities that must be reported to Senate should be iden-
tified. The Chairman agreed that delineation of aspects of the charge
to the committee was required. A. MacPherson commented that members
had been asked to submit their recommendations for changes in the Rules
of Senate but they had not done so.
Question was called on the motion to refer, and a vote taken.
MOTION TO REFER FAILED
Moved by D. Birch, seconded by K. Rieckhoff,
"That.the matter of summary argumentation
as it relates to this rule be referred."
