Subject: Graduation Diplomas

5-A-5

At a previous meeting of Senate two designs were submitted.

Senate referred the matter back to the Registrar and the University

Committee on Works of Art. The work of the Committee on Works of Art

relating to graphics and other aspects of University publications has

been taken over by the University Graphics and Design Committee.

The Graphics and Design Committee met on a number of

occasions and the following is its report:

"Members complimented W. Griba (of the Library's

Audio-Visual Centre) on the designs, all using optima type. It

wa .

s agreed to select one design which would be recommended to

Senate as the Committee's choice and to show Senate the other

designs.

.The chosen design would be in horizontl format. The

University crest would be displayed in the form of a shaded

pattern over which the type would be printed. The University

seal would be embossed and signatures in red ink would be

written over the seal. The type of the sentence containing

the date of the conferring of the degree would be arranged so

that a change in date would not necessitate a change in

typography. The folder to contain the certificate would be in

a shade of red to be chosen by P. Robertson and W. Griba and

grey ribbon will be used to hold the certificate within the

folder."

The design recommended, along with 18 others considered,

will be on display in the Senate and Board Room for the week priorto

the Senate Meeting on April 3.
