Thursday, February 24, 1972 
     
     ‘was the first Senate Meeting held 
     
     after I took over office as Inter- 
     
     enal Vice—President, a position 
     
     which gives me a seat on Senate 
     
     :aong 
     
     along with President Pat Duffy 
     
     and four other elected members of 
     
     the Student Body. 
     
    

    
     I accompanied the former In- 
     
     ternal V—P Brian Zalswski to the 
     
     meeting to learn the ropes. After 
     
     being introduced to President 
     
    
   
   
    
     eBaker, I was presented to the 
     
    
   
   
    
     "Senate members and Brian was 
     
     thanked for his work on Senate. 
     
    

    
     Subjects brought up at the 
     
     meeting concerned the Political 
     
     Science Department, the Education 
     
     Faculty and early entrance of ad- 
     
     vanced Grade XI students., 
     
    

    
     There was a great deal of 
     
     discussion concerning the number 
     
     of credits which the Political 
     
     Science Faculty was offering. 
     
     Dean John Smith and Professor “on 
     
    
   
   
    
     3 Dreger attempted to showathe Sena 
     
    
   
   
    
     -ats how the Poli—Sci courses were 
     
     set up on a two year rotation 
     
    
   
   
    
     basis. During this discussion, 
     
     there were in my opinion a good 
     
     many digs at Reshard 8001, the 
     
     head of the Political Science 
     
     Department and I wondered if it 
     
     might have anything to do with 
     
     this expose of the Faculty's 15%4 
     
     wage increase "negotation" demand. 
     
     Dean Edmonds and Professor 
     
     Ray Campbell of the Education 
     
     Faculty discussed the matter of 
     
     dropping the Two—year Education 
     
     diploma course, something which I 
     
     felt Senate approved of but were 
     
     considering the Political implo- 
     
     cations of it before they make a 
     
     final dioision. The four year 
     
     program and its six coursed a 
     
     year were diecuued with the idea 
     
     of making the practice teaching a 
     
     lab course (not charging for it). 
     
     This was shot down because they 
     
     felt that a five year program 
     
    
   
   
    
     _might seem be coming into effect. 
     
    
   
   
    
     There is little use of changing 
     
     something which may not be around 
     
     too much longer. 
     
    

    
     A final point of discussion 
     
     was the early admittance of bright

     Grade XI students. A flexible num- 
     
     ber of 25 was outlined which means 
     
     that next year they hope to let 
     
    

    
     one bright Grade XI student from 
     
     each high school on the Island 
     
    

    
     into Freshman Year. An average 
     
    

    
     of above 80% would be required for 
     
     entrance. 
     
    

    
     My first impressions of Sen-, 
     
     ate were that some people like to 
     
     do a lot of talking without really 
     
     saying very much while other peo- 
     
     ple really know what they are 
     
     talking about. Dean of Arts John

     My role in Senate this year 
     
     I see as oneoof trying to make sure 
     
     that the desires of the student: 
     
     body are not lost amidst a whirl— 
     
     wind of words which are not neces- 
     
     sarily very meaningful.
