BACKGROUND OF WATERLOO UNIVERSITY COLLEGE Waterloo University College is a liberal arts college dedicated to the development of the mind and character of the individual student. Under the name of Waterloo College, it became affiliated with the University of Western Ontario in 1925. Five years later Waterloo College was granted the right to offer courses leading to the Honors B. A. degree. In this association with a provincial university, Waterloo College experienced a steady increase in enrolment and expansion in curriculum. More than 1,000 students have completed the requirements for the Bachelor's degree at Waterloo during these thirty-five years. By mutual agreement, the affiliation with the University of Western Ontario was terminated on June 30, 1960. By an Act of the Ontario Legislature, Waterloo University College now is an independent degree granting institution. It is associated with Waterloo Lutheran Seminary under the corporate body, Waterloo Lutheran University. Dean L. H. Schaus, Member of Waterloo Planning Board.
