"At a meeting in December, 1966, forty-one staff members from eighteen departments at this university expressed a common interest in the growing complexity of problems associated with human settlement. The concern of the group focused primarily on the communities of western and northern Canada. The need for an interdisciplinary approach to these many-sided problems was agreed upon. The Center for Settlement Studies originated from this common concern. On the assumption that the problems of human settlement might be the limiting factor in the social and economic development along Canada's resource frontier, the study of these communities was selected as the first major focus of research. The broad, implicit hypothesis is that the condition of life (real or imagined) in frontier communities is currently a significant influence on the natural resource development of those regions. Hence, the purpose of current Center-sponsored research is to acquire a better understanding of the factors that help or hinder the growth of this type of community.".
