BRANDON UNIVERSITY COAT OF ARMS In 1948 a committee was appointed to design and approve a Coat of Arms for Brandon College. The official statement of the Arms is: Argent, on a chevron of azure an antique lamp or, between in chief two open books, and in base a garb, all proper. Crest --- A Phoenix sable, armed gules, issuant from flames of fire proper. Taken from Ephesians IV:15, the motto "Aletheuontes de en Agape" means "Speaking the truth in love". In 1971 the University Registrar composed the following description of the Coat of Arms: "The Coat of Arms represents the three-fold nature of man: spiritual, mental and physical, crowned with the blessing of everlasting life. The wheatsheaf represents the material bless- ings, which God has given us in body and estate. The two open books represent the learning and arts of mankind. The Phoenix is a myth- ical bird fabled to be the only one of its kind which lived for five or six hundred years in the Arabian desert, after which it burned itself to ashes in a funeral pyre and emerged from the ashes with renewed life to live through another cycle of years. The Phoenix therefore repre- sents immortality." HOW TO USE THIS CALENDAR 1 Look in the Table of Contents at the beginning of the Calendar for the page numbers of the main sections referenced below. Look in the Index at the back of the Calendar for specific topics. 2 If you are applying to come to Brandon University for the first time, see the Admission Requirements section (section 3.1). 3You must become familiar with all the regulations for the degree that you plan to take. The University makes it your responsibility to ensure that you take the right courses to graduate. In most cases, no one will check your program for you unless you ask them to. You should read all of the regulation sections of the Calendar, ideally right away, but definitely before you begin your second year. 4 The Calendar contains a description of all of the courses that are ever offered by each department. Not all of these courses are offered every year. A separate document, the Registration Guide, lists the courses that are offered during the current year's Regular Session, along with the times that they are offered. Instructions as to how to register for courses can be found at the beginning of the Registration Guide. Regulations concerning Registration and related topics can be found in the General Regulations section (section 4) of the Calen- dar. 5 In the Faculty of Arts or the Faculty of Science, you may initially begin in either the three-year or four-year degree. If you subsequently decide you want to pursue an Honours degree, you are encouraged to inform the relevant Department Chair and the Dean of the Faculty as soon as possible after completing 30 credit hours. 6 You can get help with course selection, interpretation of regulations, and any other aspect of your program by contacting Student Ser- vices at 727-9769. 7 The courses offered by the University are divided into five main areas. These areas constitute the faculties or schools of the University. These are the Faculty of Arts, the Faculty of Science, the Faculty of Education, the School of Music, the School of Health Studies and the First Nations and Aboriginal Counselling program. The programs offered by the various faculties are for the most part obvious from their names, with the possible exception of The School of Health Studies, which offers the Post-Diploma Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Post- Diploma Bachelor of Science in Mental Health, Bachelor of Science in Psychiatric Nursing and Bachelor of Nursing (4-Year) degrees. 8 Most first-year students will take courses in the Faculties of Arts and Science, which are listed together in this Calendar. The courses in Arts and Science are offered by various departments, which are listed in alphabetical order. 9 Use the Calendar to review the course offerings in areas that are of interest to you (English, History, Chemistry, and so on). Then use the Registration Guide to see if the courses are offered and whether they will work into your schedule. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS SECTION 1 ACADEMIC CALENDAR....................................................................................................................................................................7 1.1 STATISTICS CANADA - PRIVACY STATEMENT .........................................................................................................................11 1.1.1 NOTIFICATION OF DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION TO STATISTICS CANADA.............................11 SECTION 2 GENERAL INFORMATION ..............................................................................................................................................................11 2.1 HISTORICAL SKETCH...................................................................................................................................................................11 2.1.1 THE FOUNDATIONS ..................................................................................................................................................11 2.1.2 BRANDON COLLEGE.................................................................................................................................................11 2.1.3 BRANDON UNIVERSITY ............................................................................................................................................11 2.2 LIBRARY SERVICES .....................................................................................................................................................................12 2.2.1 JOHN E.

  • The Rise and Decline of Hybrid (Metis) Societies on the Frontier of Western Canada and Southern Africa
    THE RISE AND DECLINE OF HYBRID (METIS) SOCIETIES ON THE FRONTIER OF WESTERN CANADA AND SOUTHERN AFRICA ALVIN KIENETZ, P.O. Box 402, The Pas, Manitoba, Canada, R9A 1K5. ABSTRACT/RESUME A comparison of the development of the Metis in Canada and similar peoples in Southern Africa reveals some remarkable similarities between the two groups. The existence of these parallels suggests that a more extensive comparative study of peoples of mixed race throughout the world would be of value. Une comparaison de l'évolution des Métis au Canada et de celle de certains peuples similaires dans le Sud africain révèle des ressemblances frappantes entre les deux groupes. Ce parallèle suggère qu'une étude comparative plus complete des peuples de race mixte dans le monde entier présenterait une valeur incontestable. THE CANADIANJOURNAL OF NATIVE STUDIES Ill, 1(1983): 3.21 4 ALVIN KIENETZ The comparative study of the "frontier" as a historical-geographical phe- nomenon appears to have, or have had, two main traditions: the first of these, the purpose of which is ultimately practical (i.e. applied geography) is found in the largely pre-World I pioneer settlement studies of Bowman and others (1937). The other tradition involves attempts to apply the "frontier thesis" of Frederick Jackson Turner to other historical settlement frontiers(c.f.Wyman and Kroeber, 1957). What both of these traditions have in common is that they focus almost entirely on the advancing, colonizing culture; the retreating, native groups that are being colonized, or - better - colonialized, 1 are hardly even mentioned. 2 Only relatively recently have scholars begun to give due recognition to the roles and contributions of native or aboriginal societies on the frontier.

  • THE PLACE of the METIS WITHIN the AGRICULTURAL ECONOMY of the RED RIVER DURING the 1840'S and the 1850'S
    THE PLACE OF THE METIS WITHIN THE AGRICULTURAL ECONOMY OF THE RED RIVER DURING THE 1840's AND THE 1850's W. LELAND CLARK, Department of History, Brandon University, Brandon, Manitoba, Canada, R7A 6A9. ABSTRACT/RESUME The way of life of the Red River Metis of Manitoba combined farming activities with great summer and fall bison hunts. In general, the Metis were less successful at farming than other settlers in the area. Commentators have explained this phenomenon by suggesting that the Metis were an indolent people, or alterna- tively that farming and hunting could not effectively be carried on simultan- eously. The author concludes from his study that agriculture among the Metis should be viewed as an activity supplementary to the hunt. Le mode de vie des Métis de la rivière Rouge au Manitoba combinait la culture et, en été et en automne, la grande chasse au bison. En général, les Métis ont moins bien réussi en agriculture que les autres habitants de la région. Certains commentateurs ont expliqué ce phénomène en suggérant que l'indolence des Métis était la cause de leur échec, ou encore que la chasse et la culture ne pouv- aient pas être efficacement pratiquées simultanément. L'auteur conclut de son étude que l'agriculture parmi les Metis devrait être considérée comme une activité supplémentaire à celle de la chasse. THE CANADIAN JOURNAL OF NATIVE STUDIES III, 1(1983): 69-84 70 W. LELAND CLARK That the mixed-blood Rupertlanders who resided in the Red River Settle- ment - i.e., both those of Roman Catholic French-Canadian extraction who will hereafter be identified as the Metis and those who were largely of British extraction and who were identified by the census - takers of the 1850's as the Protestant Rupertlanders - were both part-time farmers and buffalo hunters is an accepted fact.
