College Community Role
• No doubt there are some high
school students in Seaforth and
area a bit apprehensive about
their post -secondary school ca-
reers.
Their marks might not be
quite enough to meet the strin-
gent requirements of universi-
ty adraission standards or the
one thing they might want to
do in the future is not available
at university, such as a task
specifically necessary ,in? their
own area.
Chances are, according to of-
ficials of the new colleges of
applied arts and technology in
Ontario, these people may find
refuge in the some 19 new com-
munity colleges designed in
course content for one particu-
lar area. One of the, known as
Conestoga College, is a scant
50 miles away near Kitchener.
It, as with the, others, offers
many special courses and the
requirements are not as strict.
Members of Conestoga's board
of governors and staff were on
hand in Clinton recently to ex-
plain the establishment, govern-
ment, aims and courses of Con-
estoga College and colleges in
general. F. C. J. Sills, Seaforth,
a member of the board of gov-
ernors, introduced the Conestoga
board.
Fred Snyder, dean of the col-
lege, spoke on the philosophy
behind the college and mem-
bers of the staff spoke to the
audience explaining their
course.
Conestoga College is located
- near the village of Doon on
Highway 401 and mainly serves
Huron, Perth, Waterloo and
Wellington counties. It opened
in January with an enrollment
of 196 and expects about 600
when it reopens, September 30.
In ten year, 'board officials are
predicting over 6,000 students.
This year, there are space
limitations owing to the fact
classes arte taught in 20 portable
classrooms and a large semi-
permanent building. Plans call
for permanent buildings to be
erected on the 144 -acre site for

September of 1969.
The teaching staff, many of
them incorporated into the
teaching field from areas of.
business and industry, has
grown to 60 from the original
20 members.
One of them is the well.
known Ward Cornell, between
periods announcer for Toronto
Maple Leaf hockey games.
"Conestoga concept is one of
the people first and foremost,
co-operating together in learn-
ing, in development, in growth
and building," said Dean Sny-
der. "Conestoga's prime emph-
asis is on the individual stud-
ent to enable him to develop an
adult awareness of himself as
a person."
.'Courses will be kept, as re-
lated as possible to the current
and future employment needs
of the area, namely Huron, em-
phasizing practical field exper-
ience wherever possible, and
using the most efficient learn-
ing techniques.
"Before being offered, each
course is well researched as to
need and content by our Edu-
cational and Course Advisory
committees which consist of
qualified persons drawn from
the business, industrial, pro-
fessional and geographical
communities which your col-
lege serves," he pointed out.
He was referring to the advisory
members in Seaforth, R. S. Mc-
Kercher, A. Y. McLean, A. E.
Mountford, C. E. Dearing and
James R. Scott, who suggest to
the college the needs of the
community.
Professor J. W. Church, presi-
dent of the college, also addres-
sed the crowd on the aims of
Conestoga College.
The college now offers three-
year programs in air and water
resources, civil, electronic, elec-
trical and mechanical technolo-
gy, and two-year drafting, elec-
tronic, electrical and wood pro-
ducts technician courses.
Technologists usually work
with engineers in applying
theory to the solving of engin-
eering problems while techni-
cians chiefly concentrate On in-
