    i) Paper S.75-11, S.75-119a - Institute of Canadian Bankers Program
    Moved by B. Wilson, seconded by K. Rieckhoff,
    "That Senate continue approval for the admission

    not otherwise met normal admission requirements,
    ?
    provided they are registered in that Program and
    • ?
    will undertake approved courses at this institu-
    tion.
    There was some objection to admitting to the University a small
    selected segment of the community which did not qualify for normal ad-
    mission. The Chairman stated that the Program would undergo further
    review if there was an indication of the group restricting the space
    and facilities for regular enrolments and that there would be review
    in three years.
    Question was called, and a vote taken.

    Committee on Committees

    (which could include Deans) and at least one
    student (or one student Senator alternate)."
    D. Knight asked for the rationale for sections ii) and iv) of the
    motion, and K. Rieckhoff explained that the Committee had felt input
    from a community lay member would be valuable to the policy making
    Undergraduate Studies Committee, and that student opinion was vital at
    the Committee level.

    37 p).'"
    It was suggested that section iii) of the motion was tantamount
    to a watch dog function.
    Amendment was moved by T. Sterling, seconded by J. Walkley,
    "That section iii) be stricken from the motion."
    T. Calvert, R. Schiffer and S. Smith spoke strongly in opposition
    to the amendment.
    Question was called on the amendment, and a vote taken.
    AMENDMENT FAILED
    J. Hutchinson noted the intent to add 7 iii) but drew attention
    to Item 9. i) of the paper which made reference to the Senate Committee
    on Committees. The Secretary identified that the pick-up of Item 7 iii)
    by the Senate Committee on Agenda and Rules was intended to take place
    and to be effective when the ad hoc Senate Committee on Committees termi-
    nates and change would be included to clarify this (add to Item 7 iii) -
    "That there be added an additional term of reference (to be added and to
    be effective when the ad hoc Senate Committee on Committees terminates
    ....).

    S.M. 8/9/75
    The Chairman pointed out that the intent was to repeat the wording
    of the Universities Act relating to the powers of Senate. S. Aronoff
    objected to the phrasing which granted authority to act without consul-
    tation with Senate. K. Riëckhoff stated that variations in the wording
    could contravene the Universities Act, and A. Curzon proposed that legal
    advice should be sought.
    Question was called on the amendment, and a vote taken.
    AMENDMENT FAILED
    Amendment was moved by R. Schiffer, seconded by S. Smith,
    "That section iv) be changed to read, 'To consider
    and take action on behalf of the Senate, by referring
    to the appropriate Senate committee or to Senate, all
    matters that may be referred to Senate by the Board."

    S.M. 8/9/75
    In response to a query posed by A. Curzon, the Secretary stated

    13. SENATE COMMITTEE ON ACADEMIC PLANNING
    Moved by K. Rieckhoff, seconded by D. Walibaum,

    - 12 -

    S.M. 8/9/75
    i) ?
    "That Senate approve the title, proposed membership,
    and terms of reference, as set forth in the document,
    'Senate Committee on Academic Planning,' page 20."
    T. Sterling suggested that the academic input of faculty to the
    Planning Committee reflected only actions developed by administration
    and there was no time and opportunity for deliberation on the future
    of the University. D. Erickson said the committee that performs the
    function should not be a planning committee as under pressures it will
    not plan; routine problems drive out non-routine problems; that a pro-
    active approach to the topics to be dealt with was necessary. S. Smith
    stated that the fundamental difficulty was lack of the component of
    research and data gathering for the process of planning.
    J. Hutchinson asked for information on the relationship between
    the University and the Universities Council, including the relationships
    to and the functioning of that body. The Chairman provided information
    to the effect that the Universities Council had been established in
    accordance with the Universities Act and that its committees were in the
    process of development, which would not alter internal procedures of the
    University other than responding to the specification that all new pro-
    grams be approved by the Universities Council.
    E. McWhinney commented that the Senate Committee on Committees could
    • ?
    plan a new constitutional structure for the University, leaving Academic
    Planning free of routine. R. Brown summarized some of the recent growth
    experience of the University, while admitting to the frustrations and
    difficulties encountered in planning and forecasting.
    Moved by J. Hutchinson, seconded by R. Debo,
    "That consideration be postponed until the October
    meeting, and the Committee on Committees be charged
    to further discuss the question of academic planning
    and the relationships with the Universities Council,
    ascertaining its committee structures, and present
    an informed paper to Senate at its October meeting."
    J. Hutchinson stated Senate should know a great deal about how the
    Universities Council proposes to operate and how the three Universities
    intend to respond to investigation in particular areas before being
    asked to make a decision on the proposal before it. B. Wilson agreed
    that it would seem valuable for Senate to have a notion of developments
    and .
    the possible relationships to the committees the University will be
    concerned with.
