FREDFLEl-CHER ’63 9 OLLECTIONSin thehumanities and social c sciences in Canadian universitylibraries have Report beenweighed andfound wanting in a surveyunder- taken by Edwin E. Williams,Counselor to the Direc- tor on theCollections at Harvard University Library. Initiated by theNational Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges, thepurpose of this survey was to obtaina“candid opinion upon the existing collections.” on Candid,indced, is Mr. Williams’published report, Resources of CanadianUniversity Libraries for Re- search in the Humanities and Social Sciences. “Except in Canadiansubjects and in mediaevalstudies,” he summarizes,“therc are no collections in major fields thatare outstanding as a whole.” This is asobering Canadian statement,but it is notpresented by Mr. Williams as the wholepicture, for he is asmuch concerned with tomorrow’sdirection ashe is withtoday’s achieve- ment. “In some respects, where an institution is going is more important than where it is at a given moment,” he says. It is within this broad and realistic perspective thatMr. Williamsanalyzes thecollections at fourteen University universities in comparison with one another. Although allCanadian universitylibrarics fall farshort of a desirableoptimum, it becomes apparentthat UBC very probablyhas the second bestresearch library in Canada, behind Toronto, but nudging out McGill.

NE of the mostpertinent and potent factors in 0 UBC’s success has been its selection and acquisi- Libraries tion programmein journals-in Mr. Williams’own words“a remarkable job”-based securely on col- laborationbetween library staff andfaculty. This conclusion was fully justified by the results of the sur- veyor’s two simple but effective methods of conducting theinquiry. The first was apreliminary checklist of some 240 periodical titles deliberately chosen to sound the depth of the libraries’ research potential.

During that same year the University of British Columbia oflicially opened with a total registration of 435. Today, in theCollege of Educationalone, en- rolments are five and one-half timesthat figure, and British Columbia overthirty times greater in the wholeUniversity. However proud we may be of the particular accom- plishment, we must recognize that the opening of this buildingis but one step of manywhich have been takenover the years in thisprovince in anattempt to improve ourprocedures and our facilities forthe preparationand education of ourteachers. Not all thesteps havebeen easy ones. A briefre- view of the province’s history in the field of training of teachersshows that many of thechanges leading to improvement have been difficult to implement,and many have taken long to accomplish. Sometimes there havebeen regressions. Nevertheless there has been significant advanceover the years. The first provinciallegislature sat in ourProvince in 1872, and in April of that year-only ninety years ag-a Board of Education was appointed.One of the first steps of that Board was to adopt “Rules for theExamination of PublicSchool Teachers, and the Issuance of Certificates of Qualification”. By the end of July, 1872, examinations for teachers’ certificates had been held, sixteen certificates had been 14 issued on the basis ofthese examinations, and seven sessionprogramme extended from October to April candidates had failed.

FORMERUBYSSEY EDITOR Roger McAfee is finding out what it’s like towork full timefor a national student organization. Anutshell description of theexperience is: long hours, low pay. McAfee was elected national president of Canadian UniversityPress last Christmas at theannual meeting of college newspaper editors in Toronto. CUP is an association of 27 newspapers banded to- gether to form a national student news service. OneHMan Since theassociation set up its news service four yearsago, CUP hashad three presidents in itsone- mannational office atOttawa. The association itself was set up in 1926. As CUP president McAfee has the monumental task ofkeeping a regularsupply of newscopy flowing to member papers. News Service McAfee shares an office with the national executive of theNational Federation of Canadian University Students, another organization operated by alumni who sacrifice decent pay for idealism. Editors of Canada’s student newspapers send copies of their papers to McAfee as soon as they come off the presses.This means that he has most of thepapers within 24hours of theirpublication. After looking throughthe papers for material that might interest studenteditors, McAfee stencils andmimeographs releases andsends them to member papers. If astory is importantenough the information is telegraphedto editors immediately. In this manner CUP is able to provide most news to editors within 48 hours and important news almost as soon as it happens. In a similarfashion members papers have the responsibility of wiring “hot news” tothe national office. If a paperrequires specific informationthat would notinterest other papers McAfee will sendthe paper a file of clippings on thesubject-hoping that it will by FRED FLETCHER be returned.

It all helps admit that campus papers are much more fun to read to keep him tottering along with CUP. 17 It is true,however, that we were determinedthat the Universitydeserved to be housed in buildings befitting a greatinstitution. Somehow or other we were allconscious of thefact that we weretaking part in the beginnings of a greatorganization. I do notknow what gave us such feeling of confidence but we all had a great attachment-a feeling of strong affection and enthusiasm for our University. We called it college spiritfor lack of abetter term-but it was something more than that. We had justcome through a greatwar and there was a feeling that we were enteringupon a bravenew world. Onc of the thingswhich I knowcontributed to the keenness and vitality of the University was the quality of theteaching staff atthat time. Dr. Wesbrook, our first President, managed to gather around him a group of outstandingprofessors. We had little to offer them “thc facilitiesfor teaching were primitive andthe financialrewards were meagre. I amsure it was that group of devotedscholars and brilliant teachers that inspired us. Our relationship with our professors was very close -we knewthem intimately andthey knew us. How- ever, we regardedthem as old men-well pasttheir prime-and yet,when we lookback, most of them werein their early thirties.They wereyoung enough to play basketbalk” shallnever forget the student- faculty game when Dr. Sedgewick acted as cheer leader for the professors. I can still see him waving his cane leading the professors in the yell-

“Matthew, Mark, Luke and John THEN- Help the brains to beat the brawn.” Unfortunatclythey didn’t, and the brains were van- quished. The University in those days had the virtue of being young and comparatively small. Everybody went to all the games and most of us played something. We made up forlack of abilitywith noise andenthusiasm such as when we won the ice hockey championship against muchbetter teams-largely because in thelast game literallyevery single student of the University was at the Arena. In thesame spirit, literallyevery studenttook part in thestudent campaign. Let me recall the campaign insome detail. There are one or twothings about it which may not be generally known. At that time, there was a general apathy about the University. It was not animportant factor in thecommunity and many pcople did not know much about it and did not care if it existed or not.Others considered it asubversive institution. It wasclear to us that we mustmake the publicconscious of the University, its importanceto thecommunity and above all-its needs. Wewere not quite sure how we shouldgo about this.One day when wewere discussingthe situation, Ab Richardsand I decidedto consult a lawyer.

Afterhearing our story. he advised us toprepare 18 a petition to the legislature praying that the provincial government proceed with the building of the University at the site which had been chosen for it at Point Grey. He told us that if we secured sufficient namesand aroused a sympathetic public response, he wouldpre- sent the petition in the house. That gave us our cue. We returned to the University toorganize the campaign committee. We organized shoeshine stands to raise money-being careful to erect signs to show what we were doing. We organized teams of speakerswho spoke on everypossible occa- sion. The flood of oratory which we letloose makes me shudder.There was no meetingtoo small or too largeat which we didnot seek permission to speak. We prepared a carefullyworded petition and all throughthe spring and summer we went aboutthe Provinceobtaining signatures. More important than thesignatures was the opportunity totalk to people and to gain friends for the University. I do notremember how many signatures we ob- tained but it ran into the tens of thousands. We com- municatedwith our friend, Tan McKenzie. The legis- laturewas sitting and he told us tobring the petition to Victoria. Ab Richards, Percy Barr, Jack Grant, and myself-four of us-were deputed to carry the petition to Victoria. As I remember it, there were thirty signa- tures to a page-each rolled and tied with a ribbon- thegirls didthis and the rollswere packed in ten suitcases. On our arrival, we gavethe suitcases to Ian McKenz,ie who told us to sit in the gallery and watch theshow. It was a verydramatic affair. The mem- bers of thelegislature knew we were therebut they did not know what was going to happen. and NOW Afterthe orders of theday, Ian McKenzie rose in his placeand said that he had a petition to present to the house.
