  • The History of Masonic Charities and Housing
    NEW BRUNSWICK MASONIC CHARITIES AND HOUSING COMPANY LTD BIRTH OF MASONIC CHARITIES & HOUSING FORWARD A Freemason is instructed as he proceeds through the ceremonies of his profession, that he should be aware and practice the social virtues. He is constantly reminded that charity is proper for his profession. When considering the Masonic entity known as the "New Brunswick Masonic Charities & Housing Co. Ltd., it has to be realized to many N.B. Masons, it means Camp Goodtime and that only. The purpose of condensing the recorded history since the first meeting on June 15, 1985, to the present is to inform those interested in the development, its aims and accomplishments as determined by its Directors. Rt. Wor. DW "Bud" Gillrie, Grand Historian Grand Lodge of N.B. 09 February 2019 Board of General Purposes Meeting; June 15/1985 Rt. Wor. Brother G. Donald Gruchy, Deputy Grand Master in 1985, noted that while traveling throughout the Province of New Brunswick on his job, he had become aware of the shortage and lack of quality senior citizen residences. More importantly he had become concerned for our Masonic Senior Brethren, their wives and widows (the ones that are less fortunate financially than many here today). He also noted that sometime around 1936-1937 a committee was formed to study the same subject and again in the early 1970's but both fell on deaf ears. Turning the gavel over to the Grand Master he then proposed the following: "Therefore": "I move that the Most Worshipful The Grand Master, appoint a committee with powers to add, from around the province to study the need and feasibility for a New Brunswick Masonic Senior Citizens Apartments and home, and to report their findings no later than the Board of General Purposes meeting just prior to the 1986 Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of New Brunswick."

  • By Charlotte West
    Diversifying International Recruitment By Charlotte West THE TOP DESTINATION COUNTRIES for study abroad have be- come largely dependent on the same major sending countries: China, India, and South Korea. However, in recent years increased attention has been paid Tto the need for institutions to diversify their recruitment bases. The general consensus among international enrollment management professionals is that while numbers are expected to remain strong for the next several years, no other country currently has the potential to become the next China or India. To compensate, institutions need to broaden their approach. “Few UK universities can afford to lose the Chinese market. But can we find another country to replace China or India? Probably not. We are still looking to those countries to maintain market share, but to diversify the risks, we are develop- ing the smaller markets,” says Sky Zheng, director of international recruitment at the University of Sunderland in northeastern England. A May 2015 report from World Education Services (WES) concluded that insti- tutions should develop more sustainable international student enrollment strategies by pursuing a diverse portfolio of source countries—especially those from emerging markets. WES identified four countries—Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, and Vietnam— as emerging markets that institutions should focus on in the near-term.1 Other recruitment experts have also pointed to smaller countries in Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa as emerging markets with a strong potential for growth. For the last decade, China, India, and South Korea have remained the top three sending countries to the United States. While growth from India and China has re- mained strong, the number of South Korean students in the United States dropped by 3.7 percent in 2013–2014, marking the third consecutive year of decline (IIE, Open Doors 2014).
