  • Psychological Services Plays Vital Role
    Psychological Services plays vital role Adapting to university life has always presented problems. Not so many years ago students had very limited professional help available. To-day it is different. At the University of Guelph a Department of Psychological Services is available to students who have problems severe enough to interfere with their academic pursuits or personal development. Some 70- 80% of the 750 Guelph students who are expected to seek professional help from the Department during this coming year fall into this category. They are not technically ill in psychological terms but will still spend an average of some five hours in the clinic. Dr. Don Upton, Director of Psychological Services describes these problems by indicating three crucial periods in the students university career. The first occurs within a couple of weeks of arriving on campus. Emancipated from family and parents, no longer a slave Preparing for a semi weekly staff meeting are left to right, Dr. Eugene Brailsford; Bob Jackson to rigorous secondary school schedules and and George Dennison, interns from the Waterloo-Luthern School of Social Work; Dr. Don Upton; discipline, and confronted with an entirely Bruce Brillinger; and Dr. Stan Litch. new social environment, the freshman may not be able to adjust to the abrupt changes.

  • Joseph Haydn, Symphonies Geraint Jones (1917-1998) a Prize-Winning Student at the Royal Academy of Music, Jones Was a Son of the Church
    HAYDN SYMPHONIES CC 9119 HAYDN SYMPHONIES Joseph Haydn, Symphonies Geraint Jones (1917-1998) A prize-winning student at the Royal Academy of Music, Jones was a son of the Church. The Baroque, especially Bach, Handel, Mozart and Gluck, drew his creative fire to which he coupled a dedication to authenticity of style. These were his obsessions as conductor and keyboardist.
