| dc.description.abstract | In the note which I submitted to the committee on 6th November, 1959 I suggested that the tentative timing proposed “by Professor Fletcher at the Tins tees meeting, "of 1960 "being a year of planning and 1961 a year of assumption of responsibility "by the College" might "bear second scrutiny .Events subsequent to the Trustees meeting have reinforced me in my opinion and I feel it my duty to acquaint Trustees with my views. In the- first place Trustees took their decision and the committee made its recommendations in the light of Professor Fletcher's statement (page 3 of the minutes) that "the plans at present before the Federal Government are to go on from general degrees to honors degrees" in the quinquennium 1961-65, Fran this it was naturally assumed that the College would be in a strong position to persuade the Federal Government to provide adequate funds to carry the Institute from 1st January, 1966.In the event the Federal Government has not provided sufficient funds to establish honors degrees in the coning quinquennium, and for this reason one can imagine that the major issue in the consideration of the 1966 estimates will be the initiation of honors degrees, not the assumption of responsibility for a research institute. Put bluntly, by accepting the proposals at the present juncture, Trustees are putting the Institute at the mercy of a Government responsible to a very limited electorate, whose sympathies (both Government and the electorate) have not proved themselves markedly favorable to the cause of higher education and research. | en_US |
