Financing University Programs in Education. Report on the Special Study of Requirements for the Formula Financing of Education Programs in Ontario Universities

In recent years, the teachers colleges in Ontario have been integrated into the university systems, and it is anticipated that within a short period of time all teacher education programs will be handled through the universities. This addition to the responsibilities of the universities requires that the funding formula used by Ontario universities be revised to include teacher education expenses. This special study on financing of programs in education at Ontario universities includes discussions of the transition to formula financing; planning for teacher education in the seventies; cost implications with relation to salaries, curriculum matters, and practice teaching; and the funding of graduate education programs.
