REPORT OF CHAIRMAN 

The President stated that inasmuch as she had been nominated as a 

candidate for the New Democratic Party's federal riding of New Westminster- 

Coquitlam, it was her intention to utilize accumulated vacation entitlement 

commencing October 9, 1978 and that her term of office would be formally 

terminated on December 31, 1978. Dr. D. Birch, Acting Academic Vice- 

President, will be Acting President until the presidency is assumed by Dr. 

George Pedersen on January 1, 1979. If a federal election is held before 

December 31 and she is elected, Dr. Jewett would terminate her leave and 

the presidency forthwith. 

Senate was advised of other administrative changes in that N. R. Reilly 

has been appointed Acting Associate Vice-President, Academic for term of 

office from September 1, 1978 to August 31, 1979, and J. M. Munro has been 

named Director of the Kelowna School of Resource Management. B. G. Wilson, 

who is currently on leave until December 31, 1978, has agreed to assist in 

any special assignments and is involved with D. Birch in connection with the 

budget for Interior Programming. 

With regard to the Open Learning Institute, the Chairman reported that 

its highest priority would be directed toward developing distance education 

to meet adult education basic needs. She noted that if OLI eventually 

offers upper level degree programs in the Arts and Sciences this University 

would be cooperating. 

i) Paper S.78-79 - Search Committee for a Vice-President, Academic 

Moved by K. Rieckhoff, seconded by R. Brown, 

"That a Search Committee for a Vice-President, 

Academic be established consisting of:

(a) the President as Chairman 

(b) the Vice-President, Administration 

(c)

two Deans selected by the Deans

four faculty members elected by and from 

faculty members (one from each Faculty) 

(e)

the President of the Faculty Association 

(h)

the President of the Student Forum 

(i) the President-elect to serve as an ex- 

officio non-voting member. 

The Search Committee will establish Its operating 

procedures." 

Responding to a question raised by J. Young, the Chairman stated 

that in the event the presidency of the Student Forum is vacant the 

Acting President could be named to the Search Committee. 

Question was called, and a vote taken. 

MOTION CARRIED 

ii) Paper S.78-80 - a) Search Committee for Dean of Faculty; 

b) Search Committee for Dean of Graduate Studies 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by H. Weinberg, 

1. ? 

"That the membership of a Dean's Search 

Committee (Faculty Dean) be as follows: 

Academic Vice-President, Chairman; 

all Deans, except the incumbent Dean of 

the Faculty and any Dean who himself is 

a candidate for the position; 

four faculty members holding regular full- 

time appointments, at least two of whom must 

be at the rank of Associate Professor or above, 

elected by and from the Faculty involved; 

two student members ( 

.

from the Faculty in- 

volved) selected by the Student Society." 

Reference was made to the supporting paper wherein it was stated 

that there was no intention to change the terms of reference earlier 

approved and that these would be retained, but the motion would have 

the effect only of reducing the number of Deans and faculty members. 

An amendment was moved by T. Arrott, seconded by K. Rieckhoff, 

. "That the section starting 'all Deans' be 

changed to read, 'three Deans of which at 

least two shall be Faculty Deans excluding 

the incumbent Dean of Faculty and any Dean 

who is a candidate for the position."

S.N. 11/9/78

T. Arrott commented that the rationale for the amendment was the? 

fact that large committees are unwieldy and a Dean's time is at a premium. 

Question was called on the amendment, and a vote taken.

was moved by J. Wheatley, seconded by K. Rieckhoff, 

That after four faculty members holding 

full-time appointments,

there be added

Senate Graduate Studies Committee." 

J. Wheatley was of the opinion that the committee membership should 

include faculty members who had had experience with the Graduate Studies 

Committee and were familiar with the managing of graduate studies. D. 

Birch did not favor legislating limiting the source of candidates in this 

way and he was supported by J. Webster. K. Rieckhoff urged that the prece- 

dent be accepted as specific knowledge and expertise in graduate studies is 

an essential ingredient for such a selection committee. 

Question was called on the amendment, and a vote taken.

R. Brown and D. Birch spoke in opposition to the amendment inasmuch 

as Faculty Deans have a responsibility for overseeing the graduate pro- 

grains of their departments. 

Question was called on the amendment, and a vote taken.

i) Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies 

0 ?

a) Paper S.78-81 - Department of Geography - New Course Proposal: 

GEOG 445-5 - Rural Planning 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by D. Frydenlund, 

"That Senate approve, and recommend approval to 

the Board of Governors, as set forth in S.78-81, 

the new course GEOG 445-5 - Rural Planning." 

Note: Subject to the approval by Senate and the Board of this course, the 

Senate 'Committee on Undergraduate Studies has approved waiver of 

the time lag requirement in order that this course may be offered 

in the Spring semester 79-1. 

The Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies was satisfied concern- 

ing the availability of library and other resources as a set of 

"hand-outs" has-been prepared by the instructor and meets the earlier 

concerns of the library. 

J. Wilson, resource person from the Department of Geography, was in 

attendance to respond to questions. 

L. Kemp enquired which courses in the Department would be offered 

,

less 

frequently if the new course were to be approved, and it was explained that 

the question was difficult to answer as patterns are constantly shifting. 

E. Wells expressed concern regarding the introduction of afive unit course 

and the vagueness' of the prerequisite statement. , R. Brown explained that a 

high degree of variability exists between the number of contact hours and 

the number of credits', but the general Faculty of Arts policy is that the 

- 6 - 

?

S.M. 11/9/78 

contact and credit hours match. He added that Professor Wilson had been 

hired to introduce a stream of planning courses for student interest in 

that orientation. J. Wilson added that an attempt was being made to 

accommodate diverse principles for development of a variety of planning. 

P. Wagner stated the role of planning was a selection of a base to work 

the academic learning in a variety of contexts and the work done by the 

students cannot be summarized by hours of personal contact. 

Question was called, and a vote taken. 

MOTION CARRIED 

b) Paper S.78-82 - Department of History - Title and Description

226-3, as set forth in S.78-82, be approved and 

recommended to the Board for approval." 

J. Young expressed his approval of the broadening of the History 

curriculum and stated that there likely would be more courses available 

on European nation states. 

Question was called on Motion 1, and a vote taken. 

MOTION 1 CARRIED

E. Alderson joined the assembly to respond to questions. 

Question was called, and a vote taken. 

MOTION 1 CARRIED 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by T. Calvert, 

2.

"That Senate approve, and recommend approval to 

the Board of Governors, as set forth in S.78-85, 

the proposed new courses: 

FPA. 161-3 - Introductory Studio in Visual Art II 

FPA. 360-3 - Studio in Visual Art III 

FPA. 361-3 - Studio in Visual Art IV 

FPA. 366-3 - Problems in Visual Art I 

FPA. 367-3 - Problems in Visual Art II 

FPA. 469-5 - Directed Project in Visual Art." 

Note: Subject to the approval by Senate and the Board of the course, 

the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies has approved waiver 

of the time lag requirement in order that FPA. 161-3 may be offered 

in Spring semester 79-1. 

E. Wells questioned the vector descriptions of 0-0-8 and 0-0-10 and 

E. Alderson noted that for FPA. 469 no vector should have been shown as the 

course was directed studies. With regard to the general studio work, he 

explained that studio access would be available depending on the type of 

work involved. 

H. Weinberg asked for an indication of the final structure of the 

programs in Fine and Performing Arts, and E. Alderson explained that the 

third stage of development has been approved in principle and involves a 

Major in Theatre, a Major in Dance, and a Minor in Visual Art as new 

programs to accompany the Minors in Film, Theatre and Dance. The next 

phase is to build two minors into major programs, and the Visual Art Minor 

has been conceived around the idea it is part of a larger structure which 

will support and stimulate other areas. 

Question was called on Motion 2, and a vote taken. 

MOTION 2 CARRIED 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by T. Calvert,

Board of Governors, as set forth in S.78-85, the 

proposed Minor Program in Visual Art."

S.M. 11/9/78 

Note: Senate has earlier approved in principle the establishment of a 

. ?

Minor Program in Visual Art and the current cubmlssions are con- 

sistent with the earlier proposals approved in principle. 

D. Frydenlund expressed concern regarding the comparison between 

the requirements of 38 credit hours for the Visual Art Minor and the 

36 hours stipulated for an Archaeology Major. E. Alderson explained 

that it was necessary to intensify the amount of study at the lower 

division to accommodate serious study in the Fine Arts for the kind of 

preparatory work necessary to provide adequate university training and 

permit the proposed minor in conjunction with majors in other subjects. 

D. Birch confirmed that a common pattern in the Faculties of Education 

and Interdisciplinary Studies Is a degree com 

p

rised of two minors in 

related disciplines wherein much of' the lower division requirements can 

count towards both, minors. 

Question was called, and a vote 'taken.

S.78-86 - New Course Proposal - FPA. 176-3 - 

Photography as an Art Form 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by T. Calvert, 

"That Senate approve and recommend approval to the 

Board of Governors, as set forth in S.78-86, the 

new course FPA. 176-3 - Photography as an Art Form." 

Note: Subject to the approval by Senate and the Board of this course, 

the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies has approved waiver 

of the time lag requirement in order that this course may be 

offered in the Spring semester 79-1. 

In discussion at the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies 

the question was raised as to whether the course was one primarily 

on techniques but the Committee was satisfied that the course 

properly falls in the visual art area with different orientation 

from that which pertained when earlier versions were offered 

through Communication Studies, with different program goals. 

Question was called, and a vote taken. 

MOTION CARRIED 

e) Paper S.78-87 - Practicura Courses in Computing Science 

Moved by R. Brown, seconded by T. Calvert,

and that with the introduction of these courses 

MPT 411,

Note: Subject to the approval by Senate and the Board of these courses, 

the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies has approved waiver 

of the time lag requirement in order that these courses may be 

offered in the Spring semester 79-1. 

These changes move the practicum courses in Computing Science 

from credit courses to zero-credit courses for Co-operative 

Education Program purposes and are consistent with the principles 

earlier approved by Senate. 

J. Weinkam stated that the work-study programs require a tight 

schedule and it was necessary to discontinue the former credit elective 

as two programs cannot exist simultaneously. 

Question was called, and a vote taken.

Note Subject to the approval by Senate and the Board of these courses 

the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Studies has approved waiver 

of the time lag requirement in order that these courses may be 

offered in the Spring semester 79-1. 

These changes establish four zero credit practicum courses in 

Kinesiology, and discontinue a practicum credit course, for Co- 

operative Education Program purposes and are consistent with the 

principles earlier approved by Senate.

T. Calvert confirmed that it is difficult to retain parallel credit 

and non-credit programs and that either is a tremendous drain on the 

resources of the department. A student who previously might have elected 

a 5 credit practicum will be required to seek other offerings to meet the 

requirements for a major.

MOTION CARRIED 

ii) Senate Undergraduate Admissions Board/Senate Committee on Agenda 

and Rules 

a) Paper S.78-90 - New Admission Requirements for B.C. Secondary 

School Graduates - For Informal Discussion Only 

It was proposed that the recommendations outlined in Paper S.78-90 

be considered ad seriatum and that a summary of the discussion be for- 

warded to a joint meeting of the Senate Committee on Academic Planning 

and representatives of the Senate Undergraduate Admissions Board scheduled 

to be convened on Wednesday, September 13, 1978. 

D.

Birch apologized for late distribution of a number of tables 

and brief comments in connection with the SUAB proposals. He suggested 

the analysis, produced by Analytical Studies, would speak for itself 

but pointed out that calculations based on four separate methods for 

ascertaining eligibility for university admission produced very similar 

results despite contentions that there were advantages to the student 

when the calculation was concentrated on three Grade 12 subjects rather 

than a large selection of courses. 

E.

Wells, pro tern Chairman of SUAB, commented that following the 

discontinuation of compulsory Provincial examinations, UBC and UVIc had 

recommended increasing the level of their admission requirements to take 

effect in 1981. Simon Fraser now followed their iniative with intention 

to increase requirements and lay more emphasis on the academic aspects 

of qualifications for entry to post-secondary education. 

.

?

A. McMillan was invited to join the assembly to provide any required 

additional information relating to the proposals. 

12 - 

?

S.M. 11/9/78 

RECOMMENDATION T. 

?

That secondary school applicants be required to present a 

Grade 11 physical, or life, science (i.e. Geology 11, 

Physics 11, Chemistry 11, or Earth Science 11) in addition 

to Algebra 11. 

J. Young felt that such requirements were not necessarily compatible 

to the interests of individuals who planned, for example, on Fine Arts 

programs. H. Weinberg countered that the admission standards are inten- 

ded to identify those students who can operate at a university level. 

K. Rieckhoff welcomed the proposal, stating that with the expansion of 

the college system and the open learning institute the opportunities 

would be greater for an already matured student to progress through post- 

secondary education. He regretted the distressing rate of withdrawal of 

students unable to meet established performance standards. J. Gingerich 

agreed that SFU admission standards should follow a provincial guideline 

but a student should not be precluded from entry on the basis of a diversi- 

fied background. 

RECOMMENDATION II 

That secondary school applicants be required to present French 11, 

or a foreign language 11, for admission. 

Note: A student may be allowed to present fluency in a native language, 

or another foreign language (not presently on the Ministry of 

Education Arts and Science list). Any student wishing to take 

advantage of this option should contact the Office of Admissions 

for further details. 

J. Harrison suggested that a student should be given the choice of 

either Science 11 or French 11 as individuals in one field may not find 

an advantage in dual study. The Chairman noted that IJBC will require both 

subjects whereas. UVic's requirements are for either. Several Senators 

expressed the opinion that a language requirement provides greater depth 

of learning. 

RECOMMENDATION III 

That B.C. Secondary School students be required to present 

four academic 12-level subjects (including English 12) for 

admission. 

It was noted that English 11 and Social Studies 11 are standard 

requirements in secondary shool programs and that UBC and UVic calculate 

averages over both Grade 11 and Grade 12 achievements. 

RECOMMENDATION IV 

That, normally, students must present an overallaverage of 

C+, or 2.5, on the four (4) academic 12-level subjects 

(including English 12). 

-. 13 - 

?

S.M. 11/9/78 

•

??

Considerable discussion ensued with some concern being expressed 

regarding the recommendation to increase the CPA from 2.0 to 2.5 on 

four rather than three academic subjects. The statistics relating to 

Grade 11 and Grade 12 performance were reviewed and questioned as an 

accurate predictor of university level achievement. H. Weinberg sug- 

gested that increasing the grade point average could result in grade 

inflation; that standards could be established better through entrance 

examinations. J. Gingerich said the universities should be open to 

people who wish to accept the challenge but standards should not be 

reduced to accommodate them. 

RECOMMENDATION V 

That students be allowed to select their academic 12-level 

subjects from the Arts and Science list as approved by the 

Ministry of Education. 

T. Arrott noted that Western Civilization 12, which had been 

rejected by Senate as acceptable credit for purposes of admission, 

would be included in the Ministry of Education list. 

RECOMMENDATION VI 

That students admitted directly from secondary school with 

a grade in English 12 below C be required to register in 

English 010 in their first semester and obtain credit in 

English 010 within the first three semesters at SFU. 

?

-

R. Brown informed Senate that the Department of English had ex- 

pressed strong objection to Recommendation VI inasmuch as ENGL 010 is 

not designed to accommodate the charge. D. Birch remarked that only 

a small proportion of those admitted on the basis of high school - 

graduation would be required to take remedial English, and J. Young 

suggested that a small number of students could be referred to Reading 

and Study for that purpose. 

RECOMMENDATION VII 

That the preceding admission requirements, if approved, be 

effective for admission to the 1981 Fall semester, but not 

be applied retroactively. 

The Chairman stated that the recommendation for an effective date 

of application must be left flexible for the time being. 

RECOMMENDATION VIII 

For applicants graduating in 1980 that, normally, they must 

present an overall average of C+, or 2.5 on the three (3) 

academic 12-level subjects (including English 12). Applicants 

whose overall average on the three (3) academic 12-1evel 

S ?

subjects is between C and C+ will be considered for admission 

?

by the Senate Undergraduate Admissions Board. 

P. Jewett suggested that the specified year might be adjusted.
