A number of conclusions can be drawn
from a study of these figures, but one
point is crystal-clear: both Notre Dame
and Selkirk have suffered from the same
malaise of the entire k y

lack of growth, Both institutions have had
to rely almost equally on attracting students

The task of the committee will not

agree. But we would remind Dr. Fraser that
Notre Dame was here first; it is Selkirk
that is providing the competition. While the
point is very legitimate that the taxpaying
public made a collective decision through
referendum to enter into competition with
Notre Dame, nonetheless it is this splitting
of the student pool {and a great number
of other equally important matters as well)
that has brought the subject of post-sec-

Notre Dame, to its credit went to

Along with death and
taxes, one thing that we can
expect every year is a br-

just a shade less intellectual
