Horowitz Tells Convocation

General Education Component Highly Desirable

President Myer Horowitz delivered the following Report to Convocation on 2 June.

Mr. Chancellor, Mr. Chairman of the Board, Honoured Guests, Colleagues, Graduands, Family and Friends.

Firstly, Mr. Chancellor, I address you directly. It seems like such a short time ago when, at the beginning of our 75th Anniversary Year, you were installed as Chancellor. And now you begin a week of convocations in the final year of your term. I know that I speak for the entire community when I thank you and Mrs. Savaryn for your many rmgbitions to this University.

, .ong our most valued staff are our Deans. Gerry Glassford, Dean of our Faculty of Physical Education and Recreation, has been reappointed for a second term. Dean Glassford, that pleases students and staff both within and outside your Faculty just as it pleases me and other members of the Administration and the Board. Au debut de cette année, Monsieur le docteur Jean Bour est entré dans ses fonctions comme doyen de la Faculté Saint-Jean. Je vous souhaite

tout succés pendant les années a venir. Soyez le bienvenu 4 notre universite. Dean Badir completes 10 years of service as Dean in the Faculty of Home Economics. Dean Badir, you will be missed in your Faculty and on Deans’ Council. How pleased I am, personally, however, that you have agreed to be my Special Assistant on Equity Matters.

When we complete our fifth Convocation on Friday, Mr. Chancellor, 4,350 individuals will have graduated from this University this Spring—almost 250 more than last year. I wish each of you in Arts, Home Economics and Physical Education and Recreation great success and much happiness. Je félicite les gradués de la Faculté Saint-Jean et je leur offre mes meilleurs voeux a cette heureuse occasion.

Our 78th Year has been a productive one, and like all years, it had its high moments: the approval of the degree program in Hotel and Restaurant Management, which will be housed in Home Economics, and the four-year programs in Arts and Science. Also, there have been stresses. For a while last Fall, as we went from concerns of sexual harassment to questions of writing competence to issues of mandatory retirement, it seemed as if each week had its own special crisis. More than ever before, therefore, I welcomed the civility, the grace and the humor with which many of you approached the serious matters. Mind you, Horowitz has received a pretty good press lately. Did you see the headline in the Edmonton Journal some weeks ago “Horowitz Hailed at Home?” And then the Montreal Gazette followed a few days later with “Horowitz Wows Local Crowd.” My fantasy came to an abrupt end, however, when Time Magazine, referring to the same Horowitz, exclaimed, “Horowitz Dazzles Moscow Audience.” Oh well, I’m happy for cousin Vladimir. But let’s not forget that I

was featured in the Bub Slug comic strip entitled, “A Bold Experiment in Mass Education: University of the Comics.” In the first panel I’m sitting at my desk in my office playing with a toy car and a toy tank. Pennants on the wall exclaim “U of Eh” and “Go Bears.” I am speaking: ”Greetings, I’m Myer Horowitz of the U of A. I’m not Mayor Horowitz of the U of A, but I am president, which is pretty good too.” The comic strip provided me with my best laugh of the Winter and I thank the cartoonists Delainey and Rasmussen, who are two of our former students.

For excitement here at the University, few events equalled the national university hockey finals which we hosted and the victory of our team coached by this continent's most successful college or university hockey coach, Clare Drake. Did you see the picture, which appeared in several local and national newspapers, of the hockey team and its mascot (who also happens to be this University’s President) holding the silver University Cup? My best laugh of the Spring came about three weeks later when I received a letter from the Executive Vice-President of the Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union, Bob Pugh, who has been a friend of mine ever since 1951 when we were both students in teacher education at Macdonald College of McGill University. He wrote, in part:

Dear Mr. President:

The CIAU challenges the eligibility of the gentleman in the jacket holding aloft the “University Cup” in the enclosed picture which appeared in the March issue of the Hockey News.

According to our investigation, it is most apparent that he is in violation of the following regulations:

Regulation C-2 “Year of

Eligibility”

Scholarship in Occupational Therapy Established

The Western Industrial Research and Training Centre has established the first graduate scholarship for the new MSc program in Occupational Therapy.

Steven Dennis, Vice-President of WIRTC and Honorary Clinical Associate Professor, Department of Occupational Therapy, announced that the award will be made annually to a student undertaking research in vocational rehabilitation. The value will be approximately $500.

The Department of Occupational Therapy acknowledges with appreciation this generous support.

Mace bearer Lois Stanford leads the academic procession.

This regulation allows a student athlete to participate in interuniversity athletics fora maximum of five (5) years. The individual in question was guilty in 1951-52, while at Macdonald College, of participating with the infamous ED 2 Hockey Team as a goaltender with a perfect record—never stopped a goal. Regulation C-6 “Transfer”

This regulation requires the student who transfers from one university to another to be “inactive” for one year. We understand that Mr. Horowitz’s period of inactivity has far exceeded the allowable period of one year, thus he is further guilty of carrying a good thing too far.

Regulation C-11 “Athletic Awards”

CIAU regulations allow for an institution to provide a student athlete financial assistance, not

12 June 1986

to exceed $1,000. We have no concrete proof of such, however, at the risk of being presumptuous, we are prepared to assume that the individual in question could be receiving slightly more than $1,000 from the University of Alberta. When we look ahead, the main development of the last several months, I suggest, was our presentation in March of our interim statement “The Next Decade and Beyond: A Plan for the Future.” We asked for reactions and we are getting them. I am certain, Mr. Chancellor, that you feel as I do that there was lively and helpful discussion of our proposal at the public meeting here in Edmonton which you chaired last Wednesday evening. Tomorrow at Convocation, Vice-President Meekison, the key leader of this important academic activity, will deal with the Plan in detail. Today, I want to refer to one thrust which I consider to be of the greatest importance: high quality undergraduate education and the general liberal education component which I maintain is essential for students in all of our undergraduate programs. Dean White, I am very pleased that you and your colleagues will be

embarking in the Fall on a new four-year program in Arts. Much has been made of the expansion of the previous program by one year. That is important, of course. What is of even greater importance, in my view, is the restructuring of the program so that there is a new and better balance between general education and specialized studies. The core curriculum of the new program will consist of course work in each of the major fields of study: composition and critical reading, second languages, humanities, social sciences, fine arts, and natural sciences and formal studies. As an individual identified with a professional field but whose first degree is in Arts, I want my colleagues to know how pleased I am that, as in the past, some course work offered by the professional field can be an important part of liberal education for many individuals. In my own area, for example, a course or two in the foundations of education, the organization of education, the curriculum for youngsters, or the way children learn can be useful as a complement to specialized studies in an Arts or Science discipline. And the same can be said about the liberalizing value of study in Home

Economics, Physical Education and Recreation.

I believe that it is important not just for students in the new program in Arts to havea foundation of general liberal education, but for our undergraduates in all of our programs—our honours programs in Arts and Science and our professional programs in numerous fields, including Physical Education and Recreation and Home Economics. Liberal education, in my view, demands that students in honours chemistry or zoology take some courses in humanities and the fine arts, and that others in honours philosophy or in drama or music performance programs have some exposure to science and technology. Ce que j’ai dit au sujet des programmes au niveau sous-gradué, s‘applique aussi aux programmes de la Faculté Saint-Jean.

One of our Planning Groups questioned Deans and department chairmen about necessary changes at our University. Our academic administrators assigned a very high priority to the requirement of general educational experiences for students. My own view is that all of our undergraduates should have a component of general education equivalent to at least one year of study and that some of the core requirements should be at the third- or fourth-year level. I know the

|. implication of what I am saying.

Some will ask how we can afford the luxury of exploring a variety of fields when there is much that must be accomplished in the specialized

or professional field. I ask, instead, how we can omit from anyone’s education some study in each of the fields of knowledge. I believe that serious examination of the curriculum in each of our programs would result in our having coherent four-year undergraduate programs in most fields. I suspect, howeve’ — that the nature of some areas ma_ necessitate four and one-half or five years of undergraduate study to accommodate the general as well as the professional elements. Believe me: I am not interested in our lengthening programs unless we absolutely have to do so, but better that we have slightly longer but coherent and balanced programs than our continuing the all too specialized programs that we have now in some areas.

Last month I attended in Montreal the annual meeting of the Corporate-Higher Education Forum, a coming together of about 25 university presidents and an equal number of chief executive officers of corporations. One of our task forces, chaired by President George Connell of the University of Toronto and including Walter Light of Northern Telecom and William Stinson of Canadian Pacific, presented a report on the relationship of university education to corporate employment. The study by Professors Fred Evers of the University of Guelph and James Rush of the University of Weste Ontario involved university graduates and managers of graduates from 200 corporations.

“The survey showed that

Symposium on ‘Immunology of Diabetes’ International in Scope

As many as 250 scientists from a number of nations, including Japan, Great Britain, Israel, Italy and Denmark will be on campus 26 to 28 June for the symposium “Immunology of Diabetes.”

The three-day conference will consist of plenary sessions, workshops and related poster sessions. Topics for the plenary portion include immunogenetics and genetic susceptibility; immunopathology and autoimmunity against the beta cell; environmental factors contributing to diabetes; immunity to insulin and the insulin receptor; transplantation: clinical and experimental aspects; and immune intervention: clinical and experimental aspects.

There will be workshops on islet and pancreatic transplantation; clinical trials: prediction, prevention and reversal of diabetes; viral and environmental factors contributing to diabetes; immunogenetics and autoimmunity; and immunoregulation.

All sessions will be held in the Walter C. Mackenzie Health Sciences Centre.

The symposium, to be co-chaired by George Molnar and Martine Jaworski, is sponsored by the Muttart Diabetes Research and Training Centre, the Canadian and American Diabetes Associations and the International Diabetes Federation.

graduates and managers were generally satisfied with the skills, especially technical, which university graduates possess. However, graduate skills in several areas were perceived as less than adequate. In particular, the 77 ability to communicate orally and in written form, leadership skills, and administrative skills were consistently ranked lower than more technical skills.” When interviewed by his university’s newspaper, At Guelph, Professor Evers indicated that he had concluded that: ”....the main concern is lack of a broad-based education for many students. Both graduates and managers see a need for general educational skills such as those provided by liberal arts courses. Although a technologically advanced nation like Canada needs specialists in engineering and computer science, for example, these graduates must also have general skills to function ina corporation.”

I referred earlier to the reactions we are getting to our Plan for the Future. About 10 days ago, I received a letter from one of our graduates of 1929 who is a friend of this University and one of our supporters. Peter Kilburn has been r -ularly successful in business a -ommerce. He is also interested in the humanities and the fine arts and translates that interest into financial support for a concert series in our Department of Music. Mr. Kilburn refers to a number of thrusts in our Report, but I shall quote only those sentences which relate to my topic this afternoon.

”The U of A in my time was an oasis of scholarship in a small remote community. It seemed to do well with the teaching of medicine, engineering and agriculture but my admiration rests with the quality of its teaching of the humanities.”

“What good is that old-fashioned doctrine? It creates a wide interest, an inquiring mind and provides a framework for continued learning and useful work.”

“In my case, it enabled me to compete and succeed ina highly competitive business field (investment banking), to 7 vrovide my family and myself vith substantial assets, to encourage me to be President of the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, Director of the Montreal General Hospital and Chairman of its Investment Committee and to enable me to

~

support good people and good works. This is not meant to be self-serving but to describe a case resting on a liberal BA about which I know.”

“In my day a BA was good enough: not so now. However, the foundation for well- educated people must remain with liberal arts. In my case, it mixed well with business; in others with law and medicine.”

“T would, therefore, make sure the humanities be at the centre and well taught.”

I spoke with Mr. Kilburn last Wednesday morning because I wanted to thank him for his helpful reaction to the Plan and to get his permission to quote from his letter. I conclude my Report to Convocation this afternoon with the final paragraph in his letter to me:

“Let me align myself with those who see the humanities as the centre of good education. Let me also speak up for the wide world of business much maligned in academic circles for being materialistic, self-centred, unimaginative and disinterested in life around it. That is not so. It is the engine which drives our democratic system by getting the day to day work of the country done so that time and substance are left over for academic study and scientific research. But the engine must be nourished if the machine is to be elegant or even safe and sound.”

Being a Diary of Successes Preceded by Misfortune

Tuesday, 13 May. Months of planning are over. The Symphonic Wind Ensemble is having its final rehearsal before boarding the bus to Vancouver. As part of EXPO 86, they are going to compete in the Canadian Stage Band festival. The Stage Band will participate too, and its members are now standing around listening.

The bus departs at 8:10 p.m. Many of the musicians are wearing shorts, sandals and shades. Some have bare midriffs. Near Lacombe the light drizzle that’s been falling changes to light snow. No one notices. Tropical Vancouver is our destination.

Two hours later the snow has become something to notice. A wind has risen, and visibility is about four feet. By 11:15 p.m. we are stuck. And so are the cars, trucks and buses in front and behind us.

The musicians don’t care. They are partying, ghetto blasters blaring.

Wednesday, 14 May. Came the dawn, and food supplies—meant to last till Vancouver—have disappeared.

The snow continues to fall, completely covering some of the smaller cars.

Around noon a cheer goes up as a lone tow truck makes its way northbound. The driver is persuaded to bring us sandwiches from a restaurant a mile up the road.

MacGregor Receives APEGGA’s

Top Award

The Centennial Award is the foremost award given by APEGGA (Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta). On 5 June, this singular honour was accepted by James MacGregor, Professor of Civil Engineering.

To be selected for the award, an individual must have attained “unusual distinction relating to the sciences of engineering, geology or geophysics; in the teaching in these fields; or who, by reason of invention, research, original work, or as an executive on projects with unusual or important scope, has made substantial contributions to the foregoing fields.”

Dr. MacGregor’s vice-presidency of the Comité Euro-International du

Beton, Paris, 1978 to 1980, is but one example of his interest in the design and analysis of concrete structures.

He is a Fellow of the Academy of Science, Royal Society of Canada, and the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering. Between 1975 and 1984, Dr. MacGregor lectured extensively in a number of North American and European cities.

More than 60 technical papers on various aspects of concrete structures, design and analysis have been published by Dr. MacGregor.

Thirty years ago, James MacGregor graduated from this University with a BSc in Civil Engineering (with distinction), winning the Association of Professional Engineers of Alberta Gold Medal.O

At 6 p.m. we spot the first RCMP officer. There are, he says, probably 150 vehicles stranded along a three-mile stretch of highway. Snow is expected to continue for the next 48 hours, and there is no

' equipment in the area to plough or

tow.

The communities of Carstairs and Crossfield launch a terrific effort—using 4 by 4s—to get everyone from their vehicles to the two community halls. At the Crossfield hall, townspeople appear with food, and cook in shifts till 1 a.m. There is gas, but no power, heat or telephone. Blankets are rounded up throughout the community, and we sleep in clumps, huddled together for warmth on the concrete floor of the basement, dimly lit by candles.

Thursday, 15 May. At 7 a.m. phone service is restored. Worried parents are called, and contact is made with the bus company. At 2 p-m. a bus arrives in Crossfield, by back roads and farmers’ fields. We climb in and drive to where our original bus stands, still stranded, to pick up clothes and instruments. Then its heigh ho! and off to Calgary we go fora brief rest and our first real meal in 48 hours.

Seven o'clock sees us heading for Vancouver.

Friday, 16 May. We make it! We arrive in Vancouver at 9 a.m.—60 hours after leaving Edmonton.

But adversity persists.

It rains—without stopping. The hotel has not reserved enough rooms. We miss the scheduled rehearsal time. A new one is scheduled. The bass player misses it. It is cold. It is too cold to surf.

Saturday, 17 May. Success!

Our Stage Band, led by Neil Corlett, plays in front of more than 2,000 people at the Plaza of Nations in EXPO 86—and we blow them away.

Sunday, 18 May. Successes!

The Symphonic Wind Ensemble is Gold Award Winner in the Senior Community Class.

And, of the 88 bands that came from all over Canada to compete, the Ensemble is one of two named “Most Outstanding Ensemble in the Festival”.

Coda. The Band Trip of ‘86 is an experience we'll all remember. But our most vivid memories will be the joy of musicians and listeners who took part in two outstanding musical performances.

This Diary was adapted from an article written by Fordyce Pier, Director of the Symphonic Wind Ensemble.O

Leslie Robb Gue, 1918 - 1986

On 2 June 1986, Leslie Robb Gue, Professor Emeritus of Educational Administration, passed away at his home in Edmonton. Dr. Gue is survived by his wife, Marya, his three children, David Gue, Linda Capel, Alison Bell, and their mother, Lilian Gue.

Dr. Gue was born in Medicine Hat, Alberta, on 5 August 1918. He graduated from Strathcona High School, Edmonton, in 1935 and proceeded to attend the Edmonton Technical School. From 1936 to 1940, he was employed by the Imperial Bank of Canada. From 1940 to 1945, he served in the RCAF as an aero-engine mechanic and flight engineering instructor.

From 1945 to 1947, he attended the Faculty of Education, University of Alberta, from which he obtained the BEd degree. After one year of service as vice-principal, Huntsville School, Iron Springs, Alberta, he returned to the University and studied towards an MA in English. From 1949 to 1951, he taught in the Edmonton Public School District.

During the next 10 years, Dr. Gue was employed in various capacities by the Government of Alberta. He served as Editor of the Curriculum Branch and as Coordinator of School Broadcasts in the Department of Education before joining the Department of Public Welfare as Provincial Coordinator of Rehabilitation Services. During this period, he also studied as a part-time student at the University of British Columbia and graduated in 1960, at the head of his class, with a Bachelor of Social Work.

He returned to field work in the Department of Education in 1961 and assumed the position of Superintendent of Schools in the unique and newly created Northland School Division which embraced much of the northern half of the province.

Dr. Gue was admitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies at the University of Alberta in 1964 and was awarded the PhD degree in Educational Administration in 1967. He received an appointment as an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational Administration in 1966, achieved the rank of Professor in 1974 and retired in 1984.

Much of Dr. Gue’s career at the University of Alberta was devoted to the improvement of education in Thailand. He played a major role in the conduct of five important projects carried out by the Faculty of Education for Thailand. The Faculty was recommended by the External Aid Office of the Department of External Affairs,

page four, Folio, 12 June 1986

Government of Canada, as the site for the initial project. The Faculty then delegated the task of implementing a training program for Thai educators to Dr. Gue. There were 176 Thai educators in Project 1, 64 in Project 2, and 100 in Project 3. In Project 4, Dr. Gue took a team of Canadian education experts to Thailand where they conducted a study of the effects of the training program. In Project 5, he helped the Thai Government establish a community school concept. At the time of his death, Dr. Gue was involved in organizing Project 6. This project was designed to improve the skills of a group of Thai community school administrators through attendance

in a special program at the University of Alberta in the Fall of 1986. Apart from his work in Thai education, he was also involved as a consultant in setting up the personal library of the King of Thailand.

Dr. Gue was highly regarded by the people of Thailand. He was rewarded for his efforts to improve the education system of Thailand by being appointed a Commander of the Most Noble Order of the Crown of Thailand by Bhumibol Adulyadej, King of Thailand, in 1984. Such an appointment is the third highest honour awarded by the King.

Dr. Gue’s book, An Introduction to Educational Administration in Canada,

has been adopted as a basic text for undergraduate courses in educational administration in several Canadian universities. In _ addition to his book, he authorr numerous articles on intercultui. education, native education, education in Thailand and other related topics.

Besides his very active career at the University of Alberta, Dr. Gue was heavily involved in the community. He was active in the Rotary Club, Amnesty International, Edmonton Rehabilitation Society, the Intercultural Education Council of the Alberta Teachers’ Association and the Unitarian Church.O

The (University) Papers Tell Us That...

@ Full-time tuition fees at the University of Calgary will increase by three percent in September. The university's operating budget is expected to experience a gain of about $400,000.

@ A University of Guelph professor will conduct an exploratory study of student attrition. Sid Gilbert, a sociologist and anthropologist, says:

“It’s important to see if factors such as financial hardship or employment opportunities, perceived by dropouts as reasons for their withdrawal, are viewed differently by students who continue with their studies.” The project, which has received SSHRC funding, will be carried out over two years.

Library Aid to Nicaragua Intended to Keep Bibliobus Moving

Thanks to the generosity of the Edmonton library community and the assistance of Tools for Peace, libraries in Nicaragua will be better able to support the needs of the people of their country. More than $1,400 was raised, sufficient to purchase and ship to Nicaragua six copies of the latest edition of the “Lista de Encabezamientos de Materia para Bibliotecas.” These Spanish language subject headings are an important source in cataloguing the country’s growing collection of books and audio-visual materials, says Kathy Carter (Cameron Library). The government of Nicaragua has placed a high priority on the creation of libraries and improving the literacy of the people but as funds available for the purchase of library materials are limited, a group of Edmonton library workers and Tools for Peace undertook this project and initiated the fund raising.

From the outset, Library Aid to Nicaragua was seen as a multiphase project. Phase 1 has now been successfully completed. Phase 2 will be implemented and will entail the purchase of tires for the Bibliobus—a bookmobile which tours specific areas of Nicaragua. For many people, this service provides the only access they have to books and other library resources. The Bibliobus has been operating for about two years and replacement tires are essential if it is to continue. Funds raised will be used to purchase seven 19-inch tires.

Those interested in learning more about the Library Project or in contributing to Phase 2 should write to: Tools for Peace, c/o Barb Clubb, 1901 11135 83 Avenue, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2C6.

She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing and a member of Sigma Theta Tau, an honorary nursing society.

Since assuming her position at our University, Dean MacPhail has provided leadership in the expansion of the basic baccalaureate program and in increasing program flexibility and alternatives for registered nurses to enter the

Post-RN baccalaureate program. A unique opportunity now exists in Alberta for nurses in certain central and northern regions of the province to enroll in the program and to complete it on an off-campus basis. She has encouraged collaboration between nursing education and service through joint appointments and other strategies, and has facilitated the Faculty’s strong research thrust. Strong leadership has fostered the development of a proposal fora PhD in Nursing, which, if funded by the provincial government, will be the first such program in Canada.O

Statistics Canada Survey of Higher Education: Part II

Last week, Folio carried excerpts of statistical studies of Canada’s post-secondary education system. The studies emanated from the Department of the Secretary of State. The following details complete the picture.

Attitudes Toward Program Based on their experiences since graduation, respondents were asked whether they would take the same educational program again, a different one or none at all. Seventy-two percent of university graduates, 64 percent of college graduates and 62 percent of trade/vocational graduates reported that, in retrospect, they would enroll in the same program again. Employment experience appeared to have an influence on the responses to this hypothetical question: those graduates who worked in jobs related to their education were more likely than unemployed graduates, or those in unrelated jobs, to indicate that they would select the same educational program again.

Employment Status The employment status of graduates was recorded for three time points during the period between graduation in 1982 and June 1984. Respondents were asked whether they were employed, unemployed, or not looking for work in January 1983, October 1983 and June 1984.

Twenty-five percent of trade/vocational, 43 percent of college, 54 percent of bachelor’s,

73 percent of master’s and 81 percent of doctorate holders experienced no unemployment at all between graduation in 1982 and June 1984, Of those graduates who were unemployed at any time during this period, the average total number of months looking for a job was 10 months for trade/vocational graduates and seven months for all other graduates.

1 Considered unemployed were graduates not working but looking for work, including those who have accepted a full-time job to start in the future.

The percentage of graduates in the labour force who were employed full-time rose over this time period so that by June 1984, 64 percent of trade/vocational graduates, 81 percent of college graduates, 79 of bachelor’s;, 85 percent of master’s graduates, and 88 percent of doctoral graduates had obtained full-time employment.

The rate of employment also varied by field of study. Among trade/vocational graduates, engineering (68 percent) and natural science graduates (66 percent) had the highest full-time employment rate. College graduates in the natural sciences (84 percent) engineering (83 percent) and business (82 percent) were the most likely to have obtained full-time employment while humanities (70 percent) and arts graduates (69 percent) were the least. University graduates in

page five, Folio, 12 June 1986

health (89 percent), business (89 percent) and engineering (88 percent) were more likely than humanities (73 percent) and fine and applied arts graduates (66 percent) to be employed full-time. Finally, the unemployment rate varied inversely with qualification level: in June 1984, trade/vocational graduates had the highest unemployment rate at 26 percent; college graduates and bachelor’s degree holders both had a rate of 10 percent; master’s graduates (8 percent) and PhDs (7 percent) had the lowest rates. 1 Includes graduates granted a bachelor’s or first professional degree or a bachelor diploma or certificate.

2 Includes master’s degrees and graduate diplomas or certificate.

Gender Differences At all levels of qualification males had higher full-time employment rates than females and this was true for most fields of study, even those where women dominated. Among trade/vocational graduates, 69 percent of the men and 56 percent of the women were employed full-time. For college graduates, the full-time employment rate was 84 percent for men and 77 percent for women. Full-time employment rates for male and female university graduates were as follows: bachelor’s: 82 percent men, 76 percent women; master’s: 89 percent men, 80 percent women; doctoral holders: 89 percent men, 85 percent women. More women than men were employed part-time. With the exception of PhD holders, women were at least twice as likely as their male counterparts to work part-time. Two reasons seem prominent in accounting for this situation. The most frequently cited reason for part-time employment was the inability to obtain full-time employment, and women were more likely than men to encounter this experience. Secondly, personal or family responsibilities precluded full-time work more frequently for women than for men. Men and women graduates also had different rates of unemployment. Among trade/vocational graduates women (27 percent) had higher rates compared to men (25 percent). College women (10 percent) had lower rates than college men (11 percent). Rates did not differ between men and women at the bachelor’s level (10 percent). Among higher level degree holders, male master’s (7 percent) and male doctoral graduates (7 percent) had lower unemployment rates than female master’s (9 percent) and female doctoral graduates (9 percent).

Relationship Between

Education and Employment, Graduates were asked to what extent the full-time job held in June 1984 required the utilization of the knowledge and skills

gained in their educational program. The higher the level of qualification the smaller the proportion of graduates in jobs unrelated to their education: 36

-percent of trade/vocational, 15

percent of college graduates, 17 percent of bachelor’s, 9 percent of master’s graduates and 4 percent of PhD holders were in jobs which were unrelated to their education.

1 Relationship is based on the graduates’ subjective perception of the extent to which their educational skills are utilized in the job. Several questions were used to obtain the results.

Expected Earnings

Expected earnings, of those employed full-time in June 1984 rose by level of certification and varied by field of study. The (expected) median annual income was $15,000 for trade /vocational graduates, $18,000 for college graduates, $23,000 for bachelor’s, $32,000 for master’s graduates and $34,000 for doctoral holders. At the trade/vocational, college and bachelor’s levels, engineering and health science graduates had the highest median earnings of all fields of study.

At the master’s level, education ($39,000) and business graduates ($35,000) reported the highest incomes. Business, education and engineering graduates with median salaries of $40,000 were the highest paid doctoral graduates.

The median annual salary of men exceeded that of women and the difference was greatest at the master’s level ($5,000), and least at the bachelor’s level ($2,000).. Women with the same level of qualification as men had to have three or more years of work experience to have median annual earnings at least as high as men with no previous full-time work experience before graduation.

1 These are earnings as estimated by respondents for the 12 months of 1984.

2 These figures do not take into account other factors which may, in part, explain these differences.

Conclusion The findings indicate that university graduates, particularly at the master’s and doctoral level, were the most satisfied with their education, made the easiest transition into the labour market and had the best experiences within the labour market in terms of job satisfaction, earnings and a strong connection between their education and their employment. Trade /vocational graduates were

less likely to find employment, and when they did it was more likely to be unrelated to their training. College graduates presented a more ambiguous picture: their

unemployment levels were lower than the trade/vocational graduates but they did not show a greater level of satisfaction with their choice of educational program.O

Linkage With Xi’an Jiaotong Strengthened

a ‘ernational cooperative project ih, ‘ing the Faculty of Business,

China and the Canadian International Development Agency recently honoured its first Alberta MBA graduates.

Aaron Li and Jonathan Zhou received their MBA degrees on 3 June and attended a special luncheon held in their honour the next day.

The linkage between the Faculty of Business and the Engineering Management Department of Xi’an Jiaotong University in Xi’an, China, began in 1982. The cost of the program is covered fully by CIDA.

The Director of the China Project, Rolf Mirus, says members of the Faculty are very generous with their time and personal support for the Chinese MBA students. He says both Li and Zhou specialized in international trade and will likely become associate professors on their return home.
