THE COLLEGE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE The College Executive Committee was established by the Board of Governors following the early retirement of Dr. W. George Bowen as President of Niagara College at the end of June, 1971. The structure and functions of this Committee, which came to be popularly known as the CE.C. , were outlined in a memorandum issued July 5, 1971 by Mr. Harwood, Chairman of the Board of Governors. Following is an ex- cerpt from that memo. Until a new President or an Interim President is selected, an Executive Committee will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of the College. This Committee will consist of: Mr. I. J. Giancarlo - Chairman Mr. R. S. Bigelow - Vice-Chairman Mr. A. Wyatt Mr. S. H, M. EUiott Mr. A. P. Mclntee Mr. A. S. Aboud Mr. J. P. Roos - Secretary The Board of Governors has confidence that this group can successfully guide the College until a more perma- nent arrangement is made. I hope that all staff members will actively support the Executive Committee during this interim period so that the best interests of Niagara College, and more particularly, the best interests of the students, will not be adversely affected in any way. At the first formal meeting of the C.E. C. on July 6, 1972, the members agreed to meet daily to deal with the accumulated items of College business. The Committee ' s first task was to forumlate immediate College object- ives. Highest priority was given to preparation for instructional activities in the Fall term. This included such matters as the completion of faculty assignments and timetabling, provision of physical space and teaching facili- ties, equipment and supplies. Written reports of all important activities and College operational matters were sup- plied to the Board on a regular basis. The C.E.C. also met with the Board of Governors once a week, later once every two weeks, to present its report on conditions in the College. In an effort to maintain all channels of com- munication open, regular meetings were scheduled with the Divisional Chairmen, the Faculty Executive, and the S.A.C. executive. As the Committee continued its operations, it soon became apparent that, in addition to day-to-day operations, involvement in long range College planning was necessary. A number of sub- committees or action groups were formed. One dealt with the Connect Campus, or S.R.G. five-year planning. A review of all iteins in the Policy and Procedures manual was begun. The Committee in effect assumed all the functions of the offices of the President and the Dean of Faculty. This responsibility was delineated by Mr. Harwood, Chai rman of the Board, in a progress report which was issued on August 19, 1971. In my note of July 5th I indicated that the College Executive Committee wotild be responsible for the day-to- day operations of the College until a new President or an interim President is selected . It is most unlikely that the appointment of an interim President will be made and, consequently, the C.E.C. will function until a new President takes office. The College Executive Committee with Mr. I. J; Giancarlo as Chairman as well as Act- ing Chief Officer of the College, has had an extremely busy summer, and I would like to compliment this group for the initiative they have shown in guiding the operations of Niagara College during a difficult period. The members of this Committee have asked me to extend their appreciation to the many staff members who have contributed a great deal of time and effort in assisting them to fulfil their responsibilities. As the functions of the President and the Dean of Faculty have been assigned to the C.E.C. by the Board of Gov- ernors, the position of the Dean will cease to exist in this interim period. Mr. Wyatt has been designated as Acting Director of Resources area and will assume administrative direction of the Computer Centre as well as those areas now imder Mr. E. Lundman, Director of Campus Development, who resigned effective the end of September to accept a position elsewhere. In addition to their Committee activities, the members of the C.E.C. continued to perform their duties in head- ing up various Schools and branches of the College. Mr. Mclntee, Associate Dean of the School of Business, under- took to head up Continuing Education until a decision was made regarding the appropriate place of Continuing Education in the College organization. The co-operation of all Board members, administrators, faculty and staff evident during this period as everyone worked to ensure the continued progress and orderly operation of the College. The C.E.C. continued to function until the new President, Mr. A. S. Manera, took office in January, 1972. A President ' s Management Team composed of members of the C.E.C., Mr. J. R. W. Whitehouse, Assistant Dean of the School of Industrial Relations and Labour Studies, and Mr. W. H. Cornett, Director of the Division of Re- training Programs, was formed by the President to carry on with administrative functions. - I. J. Giancarlo May 24, 1972 3

PRESIDENT A. S. MANERA THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE I am very happy to take this occasion to say a few words to students and friends of the College who may be reading this yearbook. College life is, to a large extent, what you make of it. As with life in general, there is potential for accomplishment, satisfaction, and frustrations. Disappointments and frustrations are often as much a part of personal development as are the successes. Whether you are just graduating or whether you are reading this several years after it is writte n, the events and people described in this yearbook will undoubtedly bring back many memories. If you are graduating this year, you will find that the College did not provide you with all the ans- wers to all the questions that will come up in your everyday work or personal activities. If you are reading this after several years, I am sure that by now you have also found this out. Hope- fully, though, the time spent at Niagara College will have provided some of the tools needed to find some of the answers, though not by any means all of the answers. The year 1972 is certainly a milestone in the history of Niagara College. Hopefully, it will be remembered as the year in which future goals were defined and future directions chartered. Cer- tainly the past has much to teach us and, in looking through this yearbook, we must look to the future which I hope will be satisfying and successful for each other. A. S. Manera 2
