Mr. Jones opened the meeting by asking the Committee members if
.they had any ideas or opinions they tdshsd to express regarding the
kegional College situationo
Mr.· MacDonald suggested that it seemed that the base of the
educational concept had now becoMe so broad (with the addition of the
three other regional college areas) that it would be sxtremely difficult
to make progress.
Dr. Wilson thought that publicity through newspaper articles,
editorials� fe�ture stories and more public awareness stimulated by such
groups as ths P.T.Ao would seem to be in order. Also, anything we might
do to arouse political interest and support should be encouraged.
It was agreed that the Department of Education appeared remiss
in not making a prooipt, appointment of Dr. Chapman• s successor, and the
loss of continuity in this Department is regrettable.
Mr. Jones stated that he will contact Mr. Espley and Dr. Chapnan
of the Departinent of Education this week, with tha view of getting sane
suggestions from them regarding the financing of the educational pro­
g�ammes being considered for the North Shore Regional College. Mro Jones
will pass this :financing information along to Mr. H:cGown, who is coordin­
ating the material required for the report requested by th8 Minister of
F.ducation.
Dr. Wilson. thought that by thd end or this week Mr. Les Brooks
might be able to taks nll the coJ.lectad material and prepare the report
raqua�tro by the Minister.
