But these drafts are polished, the quality of the analysis uniformly high. Government policy choices through time are being documented and data are being collected; the patterns are being identified, causality argued, international commonalities and local specificities discussed. Although most of the papers have a time horizon too short to constitute history (with the excep- tion of the Fisher et al. book, which examines the period 1980 to 2010), taken all together, these books are a second draft of history.

  • Ontario Reticence in Higher Education Is It Time to Contemplate Major System Reform?
    Reproduced from The Blue and White February 9, 2011 http://www.theblueandwhite.ca/article/2011/02/09/00/00/04/ontario-reticence-in-higher-education/ Ontario Reticence in Higher Education Is it time to contemplate major system reform? Ian D. Clark, David Trick and Richard Van Loon1 Ontario exceptionalism Ontario was once at the leading edge of change in higher education policy. But over the last several decades – as the postsecondary systems in England, Australia, many American states, Germany, Scandinavia and some Canadian provinces have been dramatically overhauled – the basic structure of Ontario’s university and college system has stayed the same. In this essay we look at what other governments have been doing to re-design their postsecondary education systems and then raise some of the pros and cons of undertaking major reform of the Ontario’s higher education system. We build on the findings of recent research sponsored by the Higher Education Quality Council of Ontario and published as Academic Transformation: The Forces Reshaping Higher Education in Ontario.2 In 1964 William G. Davis (BA, U of T, 1951) was anything but reticent about higher education planning. He had been Minister of Education for two years when he was given the additional responsibility of Minister of University Affairs. Mr. Davis and his colleagues in the government of Premier John Robarts led reforms in the primary and secondary school systems and introduced substantial changes to postsecondary education, establishing new universities (Brock, Guelph and Trent) and a whole system of new colleges of applied arts and technology. The design of the system introduced in the 1960s remains almost unchanged today.

A follow-up report in 1993 found that opportunities for advanced training remained “isolated and not part of an integrated and planned system of advanced training, with equitable student access” (Task Force on Advanced Training 1993, 11-13).
