Program Brings Fuller U.S.-Canada Understanding
Rochester, N. Y. (U.R) -A
unique college program, aimed
at bringing the peoples of the
United States and Canada closer
together, is gaining prominence
as an agent for fuller under
standing between the two coun
tries. Operating under the theory
that these international neigh
bors are "partners in one anoth
er's d e s t i n y," the Canadian
Studies Program at the Univer
sity of Rochester is striving to
improve a peaceful relationship
that already is the envy of other
nations. -
Dr. Cornelis W, de Kiewiet,
president of the university, who
conceived me program, says ix
is our belief that the time has
come ' when American public
opinion should achieve a greater
awareness of today's Canada."
A Year Old
Through the program, the uni
versity is endeavoring to ac
quaint college students with the
thoughts, feelings and problems
of the Canadian people. The
project is the only one of ' its
kind on an undergraduate level
in American universities and is
expected to set a pattern for
other United States and Cana
dian institutions. ' ,
Initiated only-a year ago, the
program now has a comprehen
sive collection of Canadian ma
terials, and a schedule of courses,
research, conferences, teacher
exchanges and scholarships.
Dr. de Kiewiet points out that
Americans are prone to take
Canada for granted and to treat
Canadians as "bush-league Amer
icans." To be oblivious of a very
real Canadian self -consciousness
is a national fault for which
we pay a greater price than we
recognize, ha warns. " " "
"Canada and the United States
are ' indissolubly committed to
each other," explained Dr. de
Kiewiet. "The facts of geogra
phy, history, language, econom
ics and strategy make us part-
ners in one another's destiny."

; ; The program is not designed
to educate a group of specialists
in Canadian affairs. Dr. Donald
W. Gilbert, director of the pro
gram, ' said "the availability of
courses on Canada,- as part of
a normal concentration program
in history, economics, geogra
phy, geology, government or lit
erature, will . afford opportunity
to study a particular field in
terms of another society closely
related to our own and to com
pare and correlate developments
in ' that field , in the two coun
tries." One of the most important
phases of the program is the
conference plan, which draws
leaders of the countries together
for free and frank discussion.
The first in a series, held in Sep
tember on economic relations,
successfully set the stage for
future exchange of ideas. Some
80 leaders in business, education
and government attended. !
