During the past year, as heretofore, it has been the policy of the department to serve, as far as possible, all sections of the Province, particularly the more remote urban centres. Since funds for the work have been limited, an effort has been made to explore new media for the equalization of the educational opportunities offered by the University. In this connection emphasis has been placed upon the use and development of the radio and the directed study-group. In all phases of the work the main effort has been directed towards providing an educational programme with a constructive purpose and with some degree of continuity.
