To Get C Must Hoist Socks, Says Educator could be secured from European| Oshawa area residents must show an interest and accept the challenge to upgrade education- al standards, if a community college is to be established here, Norman A. Sisco, director of the Technological and Trades Train- ing Branch of the Ontario De- partment of Education, said at the meeting of the Rotary Club of Oshawa. "The social impact can be great," said Mr. Sisco who ex- ed the money would come the 'two senior govern- ments without cost to local tax- payers. The college would be| under the control of a_ local board of governors which would have power to acquire land, build buildings and operate them. "In the opinion of the depart- ment Canada in the past 'has been tremendously wasteful of human potential. It has not wor- ried enough about human re- sources. We have allowed too many to graduate into the school of hard knocks. In the modern world that is not nearly good enough," Mr. Sisco said. "A lot of responsibility lies on the shoulders of business and industry, which have exercised their own selfish motives but never considered this potential waste. "Industry has taken -- those with the best school grades so those who are left are those who have nothing else to do but go to university. It does not make sense that a Grade 13 graduate should start on the line at Gen- eral Motors. If he is he is a potential troublemaker. Industry should hire intelligent- ly for the type of jobs it has to) offer." It was explained that Canada prior to the Second World War was quite different from today. Fifty per cent of the population was engaged in agricultural pursuits and industry was most- ly of a basic nature. Emphasis was on a general education. For that reason it was eas yto drop out of school and learn a trade on the job.

Followirig the war the picture changed drastically, because, Canada had become a producer of war materials and industry had changed fundamentally. Canada now had to compete in foreign markets to sell her goods. Due to the reorganiza- tion of industry in Europe and Japan, Canada was faced with a shortage of skilled labor. In the early 1960's the federal and provincial governments agreed to assist in a technical training program. Four- and five-year programs in secondary schools were started, designed to cut drop outs and to promote a higher level of education, and give training which would be useful after school. that there was such a tremen- dous schoo] building program. The program resulted in the school retention rate rising from 42 per cent in the late 1940's to about 70 per cent today of those under 19 years,"' Mr. Sisco said. In May of this year legislation to provide for colleges of applied arts and technology was passed. Such colleges would have a technical centre with a three- year course which would also work with apprentices, It would also offer one and two-year technical level courses in sci- ences as well as business ad- "Tt was due to this program| § ministration.
