THE MARTLET, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 7. 1971. Page 3possibilities CCnnlimited99......says MeKinnon‘Abig, blue, funky dream’Approximately 100 studentsshowed up in the SUB Tuesdayloon to hear Bill Goede explainwhathe’ll do if studentssupport him on a referendumlext week.“While I cycled up thismorning I had a vision <strong>of</strong> whatI could do if you put this jobintoeffect.” he told the crowd.It was a “great, big,beautiful, blue, funky dream.”he said, and one that he’d liketo see become real.Goede roughly sketched anoutline for the course he hopedto <strong>of</strong>fer, but stressed that itwas completely flexible andthat direction was really up tothose who got involved with it.“If you’re interested in this Iam.” he told the listeners, andsaid that the first thing to bedone would be to get togetherand decide “where we are nowand where we want to gooutside the curriculum.”The next step, said Goede,would be “to envision themode <strong>of</strong> transport we want tome to get there.”Goede said that he wasdiscouraged by the apparentatmosphere at Wic now.Apathy is back again, he said,after being driven out lastyear.“It seems to be an endlesscircle dance with no point toit.”Goede said that he sees “alot <strong>of</strong> downcast eyes on‘Someplace, somewhere we’ve got to do something about the endless circle dance.‘campus” now, and “I thinksomeplace, somewhere we’vegot to do something aboutthis”.Goede thinks that withstudent support he’d be able tochange the university’s atmosphere.The course he envisions, hesaid, would consist mostly <strong>of</strong>symposiums and rap sessions.During talk periods, he said,students would -discusseverything from <strong>Victoria</strong>’sdowntown newspapers, tostudent rights, literature andpoetry.“These are just ideas” hesaid, “I would hope that you’dinvent some.”.Issues will go totwo referenda next weekStudents wil decide theoutcome <strong>of</strong> two hot issuescurrently before theRepresentative Assembly.In a special meeting <strong>of</strong> theRA last Sunday night it wasdecided that referenda shouldbe held, in conjunction withthe RA elections nextTuesday, to determine ifpresent athletic fees should bereallocated and if Bill Goedeshould be hired by thestudents.The athletic’s referendumasks students if they would bein favour <strong>of</strong> redistributing the$6 fee which goes each year tothe athletics department, bygiving $4 to intra and extramurals,and $2 to AcademicAffairs.A second referendum will beheld concerning Bill Goede.It will ask students if theyincrease in fees in order to payGoede if hired.In a meeting <strong>of</strong> the RASunday night, called speciallyto discuss motions concerningthe referenda, AMS PresidentIan McKinnon told theAssembly that the move toreallocate fees was “unconstitutional”.McKinnon said that the $6which goes from each studentto athletics is separatefromthe AMs fee.“Technically our fee is not$32 but $28.” he said.MORE ON ATHLETICS REFERENDUM - PAGE TENPublications Director GregFraser also was in oppositionto the motion, but disagreedwith McKinnon’s stand,saying “I don’t really thinkit’s important whether it’slegal or not - it’s a moralquestion. You can’t just pull itout (student financial backing<strong>of</strong> athletics) after they’veplanned on it.“It’s not cricket.” he said.Academic Affairs chairman,Brian Greene, replied toMcKinnon’s charge <strong>of</strong> unconstitutionality,saying thatwhen the athletics fee wasapproved by referendumsome years ago it was done“under auspices <strong>of</strong> the AMs”.Greene said, “If Mr.McKinnon’s mint is correctwe’re guilty <strong>of</strong> legalmisrepresentation andeveryone is entitled to arefund”.Greene also said that personalviews <strong>of</strong> the athleticsmotion by RA members wereunimportant and that an issue<strong>of</strong> such importance should bedecided only by the students.The motion, which called forthe referendum to be held<strong>Oct</strong>ober 12th, was carried.Along with the referenda onathletics and Goede, nextweek, students will be facedwith a referendum dealingwith the removal <strong>of</strong> members<strong>of</strong> the RA.Students will be asked todecide whether or not anby United AppealUnited Appeal isdesperately looking forvolunteers to help canvas thecity, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 16th.A committee coordinator,Sonya Croucher, said thatUnited Appeal is having adifficult time recruitingworkers this year.She said that <strong>of</strong> the 40 peopleshe herself called and asked tohelp, only 3 respondedpositively.“When I think about whatthe students did here withShinerama . . . . I think theyput us to shame.” she said.Transportation will beprovided for all those whowish to help in the canvasing,and anyone interested intaking part in the blitz, orwanting more information,should call Mrs. Croucher at477-2135.-Les Laronde photoGoede stressed the pointthat he wouldn’t be taking thejob “just to show the administrationthathey couldn’tgel rid <strong>of</strong> me.”He said that he is completely“bored” with thewhole hassle.“I wouldn’t take this to takea crack at the administration.amendment to Article I1 <strong>of</strong> theConstitution should beallowed.Article I1 provides for theremoval <strong>of</strong> members <strong>of</strong> theRA if they have “failed toperform (their) duties in thebest interests <strong>of</strong> the society.”“The present machinery isvery cumbersome,” sayssecond year representativeAlastair Murdoch, “since itrequires first, that 100students sign a petition to thiseffect, and second, that ageneral meeting be held on thematter and that at least 500students attend this generalmeeting.”Murdoch says that“Although the machinery is tobe left intact, the proposedamendment sets up moreefficient means <strong>of</strong> accomplishingthe same end.“If an administration <strong>of</strong>-ficer has failed to perform hisduties in the best interests <strong>of</strong>the Society,” says Murdoch,“the RA may adopt a motion<strong>of</strong> nonconfidence in him by amajority vote. Following this,a referendum is held amongstthe students on the samequestion and if it receivesmajority support the administrative<strong>of</strong>ficer mustresign.”Administrative <strong>of</strong>ficers <strong>of</strong>the Society are those electedin January, as the President,Vice-president,Treasurer.andWhat’s the point when the)couldn’t care less.”Goede spake and answeredquestions for about half-an.hour, and when he finishedPresident Ian McKinnonaddressed the crowd, sayingthat next week’s referendumwas providing students with“a chance to do somethingwhich would be a milestonefor Canada, if not NorthAmerica.”“The possibilities for such aprogram are unlimited,” saidMcKinnon, who describedGoede as a “fantastic pr<strong>of</strong>.”If students support thehiring <strong>of</strong> Goede next week,said McKinnon it would makeUVic worth attending from aneducational standpoint.You could go to your classesacross the Ring and get yourA-plus or D .... get yourdegree .... go out and sayyou’re trained for a job. Andwith Goede’s class you’d havethe opportunity to geteducated.”McKinnon urged thosewho’d heard Goede speak, andhad come to realize thepossibilities he <strong>of</strong>fered, to“go out and tell five or tenfriends,” and get “thisuniversity turned on”.Member <strong>of</strong> the RepresentativeAssembly, DerryMcDonnell also spoke briefly,saying he hoped studentswouldn’t confuse the issues tobe presented by referendanext Tuesday.McDonnell said that theathletic referendum wascompletely separate from theGoede one, and that to supportone didn’t mean that you’dhave to reject the other.McDonnell said he hopedstudents would vote supportfor the hiring <strong>of</strong> Goede even ifthey opposed the $1 levy.He said there were otherways to raise the money ifthey needed it.SenateselectionssoonElections for undergraduate,graduatestudent and faculty positionson the Senate are all happeningin the next few weeks.The students may elect twoundergraduates for a term <strong>of</strong>one year.

And right from the startthere was no doubt about McLaurin and his two side kicks.After all, you don’t bite the hand that pays you, especiallybefore it pays you.ky Dave ClimenhagaIf you get a chance, read theAdvisory Board’s report. Thethree board members, C.C.McLaurin, A. Brian, B.Carrothers, and Bernard E.Riedel, (Q.C., LL.D., Esq.,Q.C., MSc., Ph.D., respectively,in twos.) have outdonethemselves to produce adocument that any seriousstudent <strong>of</strong> satire cannot affordto miss. And if the thingdoesn’t appeal to your sense <strong>of</strong>humour, its sure to appeal toyour sense <strong>of</strong> righteous indignation.By far the best part is thelearned members“philosophical” section,chapter four, which dealswith, you guessed it, NaturalJustice. The commission’sdefinition <strong>of</strong> Natural Justiceis, as well as being just a trifleone sided, housed in some 01the most brilliant administrativeprose everrecorded. It couldn’t be betterif the president himself hadwritten it. (Of course, younever know, he just mighthave.) Here are some <strong>of</strong> thebest parts:“This dichotomy betweenadministrative and judicial,or variations there<strong>of</strong>, becomesimportant in view <strong>of</strong> theconsequences <strong>of</strong> the fundamentalprinciple thatjudicial functions embody theobligation to observe the rules<strong>of</strong> Natural Justice whereasabsolute administrativefunctions do not.“In the view <strong>of</strong> this AdvisoryBoard, Natural Justice hasbeen done if the person orcommittee making the“Odd that they should both be uphill!”possible in a number <strong>of</strong> the those particular activities, bysports for which we have necessity, more expensiverepresentative teams but in than others.view <strong>of</strong> the lack <strong>of</strong> present The prime requisites <strong>of</strong> anFloatingfacilities it is not possible inrumours Intramural programme are:others.

Theprocedure need not be that <strong>of</strong>courts <strong>of</strong> justice. The criteriaare fulfilled if, to paraphraseLord Shelbourne, the substantialrequirements <strong>of</strong>justice shall not be violatedana the essence <strong>of</strong> justice ispresent. Natural justice doesnot <strong>of</strong>fer any particular formor method procedureelaborately worked out andspecified for the occasion,unless these are so clearly inerror or are so flagrantlyignored as to constitute amiscarriage or denial <strong>of</strong>justice.”The good board membersmay or may not have condoneda miscarriage <strong>of</strong>justice, but they have,definitely perpetrated a Iavailable locally - forexample in Rugby, Soccer, IceHockey, and Curling to namehut a few - for othershowever, the only availablecompetition is with otheruniversities or at least on thelower mainland. This makesmiscarriage <strong>of</strong> the Englishlanguage.As for the thought containedin this little passage from theGospels, what more couldwarm the hearts <strong>of</strong> suchfigures <strong>of</strong> history as AdolfHitler, Joe Stalin, and Attilathe Hun? It seems, accordingto the board members’definition, that the abovegentlemen all could havecomplied with natural justicein any thing they did, as longas they wrote it down andsigned their names at thehottom. Its quite clear thatAdolf and Joe did just that;and was it Attila the Hun’sfault that he couldn’t write? Somuch for “natural justice.”In the report we’re not toldthat there are other definitions<strong>of</strong> natural justice, ones thatclaim victims <strong>of</strong> an action,just or unjust, have the rightto find out what the chargesagainst them are, and to replyto those charges in a free andopen atmosphere. And we’renot told that those otherdefinitions were broughtbefore the commission, asthey were.

And since itdoesn’t exist, it was compliedwith if the rules are followed.Or something like that. Theydid say that the phrase“natural justice” historicallymeant the same thing as “theWord <strong>of</strong> God.” So who’s toargue with the president,anyway.If the board didn’t take thisquestion seriously, can wetake anything they sayseriously.

Trifling, worthless. 2. <strong>of</strong> no force,invalid; useless, futile, inoperative 1605.The term nugatory is not one that we encounter daily.However it appears among wordy legalisms <strong>of</strong> the McLaurinReport, and specifically in that document’s rejection <strong>of</strong> theexternal tribunal proposed by CAUT.The report claims that an external tribunal would “makenugatory the powers <strong>of</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong> Governors under theterms <strong>of</strong> the Universities Act.” Now if you can manage toresist the impulse toagree heartily with definition one above,let us press on the the still live Kirkby case.Last Saturday’s Times contains the following statement,“The matter (sic Kirkby) now goes to the Committee <strong>of</strong>Arbitration previously agreed upon by the universitypresident and the president <strong>of</strong> the Faculty Association.”The committee as named consists <strong>of</strong> three academics, onefrom UBC, one from S.F.U., and one from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>Calgary. Naturally, I was horrified at the implications.“Another nugatory crime is about to be committed! ” I said,fearfully, to a friend.Upon investigation, however, it turns out that this is not anugatory plot after all. The pristine procedures <strong>of</strong> ourpedestrian prexy are not about to be pillaged by thosepowerful pr<strong>of</strong>s <strong>of</strong> the Faculty Association, no sir!You see this case is different, as if you hadn’t guessedalready. The Tenure Document provides that such an externalbody, called the “Standing Arbitration Committee”,will act on appeals in cases <strong>of</strong> dismissal. As an arbitrationbody its decision is apparently binding, at least that was theintention when the Tenure Document was signed by the BOG.“But surely this would ‘make nugatory the powers <strong>of</strong> theBoard . .. . etc.’ ” “No, Herman, because the courts havealready ruled that tenure documents do not constitute bindingcontracts in any case (SFU 1969)”.“But doesn’t that mean that there are no bindingprocedures at all?”“Not exactly, you see there is difference betweenprocedures and contracts.”Well then, who decides which procedures will be acceptedand which will be ignored?”“Why the President <strong>of</strong> course!”“But what if the Faculty didn’t ape with him, and invokedthe great spirit <strong>of</strong> CAUT?”“Well if the President got hassled too much, he wouldarrange for the full pr<strong>of</strong>s to ask for a Board <strong>of</strong> Enquiry to beset up by the Chief Justice.”“OK. then, who would be on the Presidents Board <strong>of</strong>Enquiry?”“No, Herman, you’ve got to call it the Chid Justice’s Board<strong>of</strong> Enquiry”.“OK, anyway who would be on the Board?’’“Well, lets see, first we would get a retired Chief Justicewho was also an ex-member <strong>of</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong> Governors, thenwe wou!d get some academic type who was a full-time<strong>University</strong> administrator ....”“Yes, yes, go on, go on”“. . .. then for the third member <strong>of</strong> the Board we would getthe brother <strong>of</strong> another <strong>University</strong> president who also happened to be a lawyer, and - yes that’s it - we would providethem with a real good lawyer as counsel, and - I’ve got it -he will also be a member <strong>of</strong> a Board <strong>of</strong> Governors! Thatshould do it!”“Boy that sure should!

That depends a good deaOf cabbageson where you want to get to,” said the Cat.kings and documentsThe Advisory Board reportin “the matter <strong>of</strong> Dr. Tikam C.Jain, Dr. William J. Goedeand Mr. John P. Graff” is apretentious but an inaccuratedocument, both in regard towhat it includes and what itleaves out. Its conclusions areexactly as they were expectedby a large number <strong>of</strong> people onboth sides <strong>of</strong> the dispute.However, some thought thatthe panel would examinecritically the role <strong>of</strong> theuniversity administration,especially that <strong>of</strong> PresidentPartridge, in last year’s crisis<strong>of</strong> non-renewal <strong>of</strong> appointments.For thesemembers <strong>of</strong> the universitycommunity even this smallexpectation turned out to becompletely false.The advisory panel hasaddressed its report to “theAssembly <strong>of</strong> Full Pr<strong>of</strong>essorsand to the Board <strong>of</strong> Governors<strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>.”This order <strong>of</strong> precedence isinteresting, and it. is obviouslyan attempt to signify theproposal <strong>of</strong> full pr<strong>of</strong>essors <strong>of</strong>this university that recommendedthe establishment <strong>of</strong>the panel. In addition to thereference to the Board <strong>of</strong>Governors who appointed thepanel under section 53 <strong>of</strong> theUniversities Act, the inclusion<strong>of</strong> the august “Assembly <strong>of</strong>Full Pr<strong>of</strong>essors” is to addcreibility to the panel and itsreport for the academiccommunity in Canada andabroad. It raises a seriousquestion, however, withrespect to the role <strong>of</strong> the so-called “Assembly <strong>of</strong> FullPr<strong>of</strong>essors” at this university.On what grounds can a group<strong>of</strong> 26 Full Pr<strong>of</strong>essors whovoted for the resolutionrecommending the panel beregarded as representative <strong>of</strong>the faculty at large? How cana group <strong>of</strong> five self-appointedfull pr<strong>of</strong>essors who drafted thepanel resolution be regardedas representatives <strong>of</strong> andaccountable to the universityopinion, especially when some<strong>of</strong> them had a clear conflict <strong>of</strong>interest in the cases concerned?The Advisory Board takesrefuge behind section 53 <strong>of</strong> theUniversities Act to defend itslegitimacy as a non-bindingpanel, and it asserts that abinding tribunal would render“nugatory the present properfunction <strong>of</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong>Governors to make finaldetermination <strong>of</strong> such matters.”(p.44) This is a selfrighteousbut ’ very poorjustification <strong>of</strong> their position,especially in the light <strong>of</strong> thefact that the tenure documentprovides for the establishment,on an annd basis, <strong>of</strong> abinding arbitration <strong>of</strong> alldismissal cases under itssection 12, and it does notseem to have renderednugatory the present properfunction <strong>of</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong>Governors in the university.In fact the main purpose <strong>of</strong>tenure documents across theCanadian universities is topromote and protect, with theagreement <strong>of</strong> the universityBoards <strong>of</strong> Governors, the right<strong>of</strong> self-government by theacademic community in allacademic matters. Theposition taken by the advisoryboard, therefore, on methods<strong>of</strong> settlement <strong>of</strong> academicdisputes is entirely contrary tothis approach. It only vindicatesthe CAW view thatacademic boards alone’ arecompetent to settle matters <strong>of</strong>academic dispute such asappointment, promotion ortenure.But the advisory board isonly re-echoing whatPresident Partridge saidabout what was then theproposed panel in hismemorandum to all facultyand the pr<strong>of</strong>essional staff,dated April 27, 1971: “Thisproposal differs markedlyfrom the CAUT recommendationwhich the<strong>University</strong> has not foundacceptable. The CAUT wanteda tribunal, composed <strong>of</strong>persons from outside the<strong>University</strong>, with one personpicked by each party, and achairman picked jointly, andit wanted the finding to bebinding. The <strong>University</strong> feelsthat it cannot and should notabrogate its responsibilities toan outside tribunal <strong>of</strong> thiskind. Such visiting committeesare difficult to constitutein the first place, andsince they do not have to livewith the consequences <strong>of</strong> theirrecommendation, they areunlikely to be sensitive to alltenurethe implications <strong>of</strong> the case.”And, “The inquiry which isproposed provides for a meansto determine whether anyindividual has suffered realinjustice; avoids the disadvantages<strong>of</strong> CAUT’s travellingacademic committee; doesnot interfere with this<strong>University</strong>’s right to make itsown decisions; and, finally,can be accomodated to theprovisions <strong>of</strong> the TenureDocument.”It seems that the AdvisoryBoard had all the “disadvantages”<strong>of</strong> the CAUTproposal except one, and thatis, that it did not enjoy the .confidence <strong>of</strong> those whosecases it was established toexamine. It was a travellingcommittee but a nonacademiccommittee in itsmain composition. It was avisiting committee and, accordingto the above argument<strong>of</strong> President Partridge, it doesnot have to live with theconsequences <strong>of</strong> its recommendations.This task it hasleft for us poor souls who mustremain in this delightfullysituated university.This leads to an importantpoint that requires somcexplanation and that is therole <strong>of</strong> the Chief Justice <strong>of</strong> theSupreme Court <strong>of</strong> BritishColumbia in the establishment<strong>of</strong> the committee. Did heappoint the panel, or did henominate the panel, or, as thememo dated May 26 fromPresident Partridge says, didhe consent to suggest namesfor such a panel? It is not clearwhat exactly was the ChiefJustice asked to do regardingthe panel. What is clear is thefact that this panel had theblessings <strong>of</strong> only one side inthe dispute. Consultation withthe other side and appointment<strong>of</strong> a joint committeewas entirely possiblewithin the terms <strong>of</strong> section 53JAN KADARCaner d BroadPION: 15-<strong>of</strong> the Universities Act.

My desire,however, is to have the wholeidea <strong>of</strong> Athletics andRecreation given a higherpriority, and hence, to obtainmore money for programmeoperation. But there is no wayit will be if the students don’twant it. Rather than forcingthe administration to take upthe cost <strong>of</strong> Athletics, I feel thatthe referendum, if it is passed,will show that the studentsplace a low priority onAthletics and Recreation.Our illustrious ClubsDirector, who incidentallydidn’t even appear at the clubsmeeting on Monday night,seems to think that moremoney will come out <strong>of</strong> thisreferendum for AthleticClubs. For a start, he will haveno control over how it isallocated, merely a voice anda vote, and even if it does go tothe clubs, there is noguarantee where it will gonext year.To mention ethics for aminute - the Athleticprogramme has,.been set upfor this year in anticipationthat the students will honortheir financial committments,and the Administration willhonor theirs. Coaches havebeen hired, schedules, dates,and bookings have been setup, and equipment has beenbought. If either party was toback out <strong>of</strong> their committmentfor this year, at this late date,I would call that a seriousbreech <strong>of</strong> ethics.Finally, in a survey made atthe time <strong>of</strong> the referendum in1969-70 concerning athletics, itwas noted that the averagestudent contribution toAthletics on campuses acrossCanada was $14.00. It is only$6.00 here. Athletics are notonly for the active participant,they are also for the spectator.’I feel that students would bebetter placed to ask whathappens to the rest <strong>of</strong> the$32.00 A.M.S. fee - does thatbring as much benefit to anindividual student per dollaras an Athletic andRecreational programme? Ithink not.Linda FlavelleElec. MemberEd. 3Correet meif I’m wrongSirs :I have heard that there is tobe a referendum to lower theathletics portion <strong>of</strong> the A.M.S.fees from $6 to $4.

On Tuesday, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 12,during the balloting for theRepresentative AssemblyElections, each <strong>of</strong> you, as amember <strong>of</strong> the A.M.S., willhave the opportunity toparticipate in the decision asto the amount <strong>of</strong> money thatthe athletic program at UVicwill receive in 1972-73. Youwill vote “yes” or “no” to thereallocation <strong>of</strong> the six dollarfee, a reallocation to hediscussed in more detailshortly.It is my intention at thistime to inform you <strong>of</strong> the facts<strong>of</strong> this situation and leave youto draw your own conclusionsfrom the material <strong>of</strong>fered inmy presentation. I feel that Ican give you a unique view <strong>of</strong>the situation not only from myposition as President <strong>of</strong> theA.M.S., hut also by virtue <strong>of</strong>the fact that for the past fivemonths, I have acted as theInterim Extra-MuralAthletics Chairman and I havegathered the relevantmaterial in an attempt to doboth <strong>of</strong> these jobs well for yourSociety. With this in mindthen, let me continue.Prior to the academic year1968-69, the Alma MaterSociety Fee was $30.00 peryear. Of this amount, thebudgetted allotment for theexpanding athletics programwas $3.70. (It is a point to benoted at this time that theCanadian national averagewas $14h per student.) In1969, the students on thiscampus realized that tocontinue to have a viableInter-Collegiate and Intra-Mural program’ at the<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>, aseparate and enlargedAthletic Fee was necessary.This was determined by areferendum that placed theA.M.S. Fee at $26.00 perstudent per year with anadditional $6.00 to be collectedfor athletics. To <strong>of</strong>fset this netincrease <strong>of</strong> $2.00, your StudentIdentity Card has acted as afree pass to all athletic func-tions participated in by the<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>. Thishas heen the arrangementsince the academic year 1969-70.It should also he noted thatwhen the student body madethis committment to theathletic program on campus.the UVic administration alsomade a very strong committment.Not only did the<strong>University</strong> agree to match thestudent Contribution dollar fordollar, hut it agreed to absorbas much again in administrativecosts incurred bythe program such as coaches’travel expenses, payment <strong>of</strong> aDirector <strong>of</strong> Athletics,secretaries, honoraria forcoaches and managers, ad-vertising, and a multitude <strong>of</strong>other expenses intrinsic in theoperation <strong>of</strong> a sound program.With such a forceful committment from the‘universitycommunity, the athleticprogram at UVic has not onlyexpanded hut improved itscalibre and its merit to the<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>. So, inlight <strong>of</strong> this brief historicaloutline, let’s look at thecurrent problem which faceseach <strong>of</strong> you now.It is the expressed wish <strong>of</strong>some students on campus toreallocate the $6.00 collectedspecifically for athletics.

In additionthey are imposingdeductible amounts <strong>of</strong> up to$50,000.00 per claim onuniversity building fire losses.The insurance companiesjustify their increases byciting such example as:1) the growing record <strong>of</strong>.student unrest at UBC,Simon Fraser, <strong>University</strong><strong>of</strong> Windsor, WaterlooLutheran, McGill and SirGeorge Williams.2) recent bomb damage atMcGill, Loyola and St.Francis Xavier3) radical and inflamatoryspeeches made onuniversity campuses (inthis case they areoperating on the theorythat all serious studentdemonstrations can bedirectly related to theactions <strong>of</strong> one rabblerouser. )<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>ficials are up inarms against the newpremiums but their efforts, itwould seem, are to no avail.Roy Elms <strong>of</strong> CUA, thelargest organization <strong>of</strong> fireinsurance companies inCanada expresses his beliefthat the new premiums wil“encourage university <strong>of</strong>ficialsto accept moreresponsibility in controllinglosses at the SOuTce.”This means that within thepolitical and economicframework <strong>of</strong> Canadianuniversities big business,through insurance economics,can gain some control <strong>of</strong>university politics by makingstudent radicalism too expensivea cross for theuniversities to bear.Universities have alwaysbeen easy marks for the insurancesharks and Canadianuniversities in particular weregood investments for insurersuntil February 1969 whenCOMPONENTSmilitant students and Mon- situation does not warrartreal police, using the Sir higher premiums.George Williams <strong>University</strong> <strong>University</strong> administratorComputer Centre as a battle seem to find it easier to switcground, turned it into a $2 insurance companies than tmillion heap <strong>of</strong> scrap metal. : squash student discontenThe insurance companies took adwn to a level acceptable tthis loss with ill grace and “set CUA.about scheming ways to retainthe healthy capital flow fromthe universities’ c<strong>of</strong>fers to itsown.

Few turn out to discusrdepartment grievance#Only four students showedup at a meeting <strong>of</strong> English 120students Monday night held todiscuss the shifting <strong>of</strong> instructorsoriginally scheduledfor 120 classes to sections <strong>of</strong>110.The meeting was called sothat 120 students who wereupset over their classesdoubling in size as a result <strong>of</strong>the move could vent theirgrievances.Grant McOrmond, thedirector <strong>of</strong> Freshman English,told the gathering that theproblem really wasn’t “allthat bad”, despite the fact itleft “nobody very happy.”McOrmond told the studentsthat average class size <strong>of</strong>English 120 was 29, “which byuniversity standards isn’treally all that bad”.“However”, he added, “itdoesn’t work out that way dueto timetable conflicts”.“Twenty-nine is still toolarge to have gooddiscussions”, one studentreplied.McOrmond also said thatbe largest 120 class had 42itudents, not 60 as reportedast week.The average size 110 class is!2 students.McOrmond agreed whenluestioned that much <strong>of</strong> thewoblem <strong>of</strong> overcrowding in‘irst year courses is due to theEnglish department’s tenlencyin recent years to in-crease the number <strong>of</strong> assistantand associate pr<strong>of</strong>essors whileleaving the number <strong>of</strong> instructorslargely, stationary.As a result there are severalupper level courses with onlythree or four students, taughtby senior faculty drawingsalaries varying from two tothree times that <strong>of</strong> instructors.“We can hire people aslecturers,” McOrmond said,“but the problem is thatthey’re pressured to becomespecialists. If they stay aslecturers (without workingtowards higher degrees)they’re fired after a fewyears”.McOrmond said higher‘ faculty members regard theteaching <strong>of</strong> 110, a remedialcomposition course, as “anassault on their integrity,their virginity, and whateverelse”.“The people who mostlyteach it” he said, “areCanadians who have come upthrough the system. Someonefrom the British system forinstance simply can’t understandthe need for such acourse”.McOrmond also stated thathe thought the “publish orperish’’ syndrome practisedat UVic to be “directly opposedto the principles <strong>of</strong>education”. He cited the case<strong>of</strong> one faculty member whotold his class they wouldn’t seemuch <strong>of</strong> him this year becausr“he was going to publish”.McOrmond agreedsomewhat sadly that thalinstructor would likely keephis job, while admitting thalseveral fine teachers whchadn’t been interested inpublishing had been let go inrecent years.The most exciting part 01the meeting came’when onestudent told McOrmond hewas keeping on a con.versational level.“You aren’t doing anythingabout it”, the student said.McOrmond replied that hespent a great deal <strong>of</strong> timehelping students, time, hesaid, (drawing a giggle fromthe Martlet staffer) that mosl<strong>of</strong> his colleagues spent“furthering themselves byreading”.The meeting petered oulabout an hour after it started.with McOrmond promising tcswitch the four students intcsmaller sections <strong>of</strong> 120..“I’ve done this for one bo)who was very upset ancunhappy, and I’d do it for anyboy or girl who came to seeme”, he said smiling.Everyone left happily, savefor two suspected radicalswho sat in the hall for almostan hour after, discussinggestalt therapy, the Need forRevolution in modern society,and where Illtydd and Seanhad gone to.Assembly sends protestto Times, ColonistA letter protesting <strong>of</strong> The <strong>Victoria</strong> Daily Times!overage, by the downtown and The Daily Colonist overmpers, <strong>of</strong> affairs at Wic their handling <strong>of</strong> the recentlyluring the past year has been published McLaurin Report,!ndorsed by the Represen- both from a news and anative Assembly.editorial viewpoint.

In aword, “disaster!”. Let meexplain.A $2.00 per student grant toextra-mural or intercollegiateathletics wouldeliminate most <strong>of</strong> the- teamsbecause to divide this moneybetween all the teams wouldnot give them enough to existand so the money would, out <strong>of</strong>necessity, be allocated tothose teams obligated tocompete with other universities.Even atthis rate, manyteams would be forced to foldand the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Victoria</strong>would lose its status <strong>of</strong> anassociate member in theWestern Canadian Inter-collegiate AthleticAssociation, the only suchprogram in Western Canada.Next, the intra-muralquestion. Contrary to themistaken belief <strong>of</strong> somestudents at UVic, the intramuralprogram does notrequire additional funds to itscurrent $3000.00 budget. Whatthe program does need,though, is more people participating!The allotment <strong>of</strong>almost $lO,OOO.OO proposed bythis referendum could not beused efficiently on a campusthe size <strong>of</strong> UVic. This positionhas been clearly and continuouslyenunciated by yourIntra-Mural Athletic Chairman,Linda Flavelle, holder <strong>of</strong>this elected position for thepast two years. So, I repeat,the additional thousands <strong>of</strong>dollars are unnecessary andwould not benefit the intramuralprogram at this time.Thirdly, the question <strong>of</strong> anallotment <strong>of</strong> $2.00 per studentto the department <strong>of</strong>Academic Affairs, managedby an elected member <strong>of</strong> theA.M.S. Executive Council.Unfortunately, there has beena tendency for the moniesallocated to this department tohe used in a somewhat dubiousmanner, though, fortunately,not intentionally. While thisdepartment has brought manygood speakers to theuniversity, it has also sponsoredsome rather ethicallyquestionable “Symposia” thatturned into low-grade orgies.Last year this practice washalted! With regard to thebringing <strong>of</strong> speakers tocampus, it has always beenthe wish <strong>of</strong> the members <strong>of</strong> theRepresentative Assembly atbudget time in <strong>Oct</strong>ober toprovide monies for speakersunder the auspices <strong>of</strong> theAcademic Affairs Committee.1 am sure that this wouldcontinue tp be the case in theFuture, even without an in-:rease in fees. Regarding theDther areas <strong>of</strong> this department,it is the consideredDpinion <strong>of</strong> most students at‘JVic that the squandering <strong>of</strong>tudent funds on functions thatnvolve such a minute per-Lentage <strong>of</strong> the studentopulace, such as Symposia,md I use this term extremelyightly,‘ in the light <strong>of</strong> pastIxperience, is most distateful.Finally, you have probablypard <strong>of</strong> the new Athletics:omplex that has finallyeached the top <strong>of</strong> theDiversity priority list.

THE MARTLET, Oetokr 7, 1971, Page 16.Mary, mysticalexciting playSomewhit lost in the furorsurrounding Marat Sade isan exciting and unusual experimentby a smaller UVictheatre company.Company One, an improvisatorytroupe composedmainly <strong>of</strong> UVic theatrestudents under the direction <strong>of</strong>Carl Hare, performed theirproduction <strong>of</strong> Mary beforeonly four people last Thursdaynight. They deserved muchbetter.Mary, based on the story <strong>of</strong>Mary Magdelene, is a newconcept <strong>of</strong> theatrit, fallingsomewhere betweentraditional theatre and purelyimprovisational drama. Theplayers begin with the basicstory and structure in mind,and then develop and alter thescenes as they go throughthem. As a result, theproductions change fromnight to night.“We get together after eachperformance”, one member <strong>of</strong>the cast said, “and discusswhat we would like to see donedifferently and then incorporateit into the play. Wealso talk to members <strong>of</strong> theaudience and see what theyliked and didn’t like, andadjust accordingly.”The production is simpleand inexpensive, relying oningenuity rather than lavishsettings for effect. The stage isa bare wooden room, lit onlyby flashlights and electrictorches placed on the floor.Costumes are a uniform grey,consisting mainly <strong>of</strong> capes andshawls and body stockings.Despite the almost starksimplicity, the effect <strong>of</strong> theplay is surprisingly varied.The general tone <strong>of</strong> the play istortured and nightmarish, butat times it attains a ratherlyrical beauty. Often thestarkness directly increasesthe play’s effectiveness,giving it an elemental qualitythat would be difficult toobtain with the most expensive<strong>of</strong> fixtures.My only complaint about theproductionthenight I saw itwas that the final reconciliation<strong>of</strong> Mary with Christafter his resurrection was abit too abrupt, and thereforeseemed to lack sufficientmotivation. But perhaps thisis the twentieth centuryanalytical mind attempting todisect what, if it occurred atall. must indeed have been amiracle.The overall tone <strong>of</strong> the playis deeply mystical. The scenesinvolving group therapydialogues and scholarlydiscussions only serve tounderline the inadequacy <strong>of</strong> arational approach to thedeeply emotional experiencepresented on the stage.Mary will be alternatedthroughout the winter withNight Play, a comedy.Home base for the companyis St. George’s Church Hall onMaynard St. in Cordova Bay,although productions areoccasionally staged in otherareas. The group left earlierthis week on a tour <strong>of</strong> schoolsand halls up-Island, and willgo to the mainland nextmonth.In a city in which brilliantsettings, extravagentcostumes, and oratoricalacting cannot quite mask thelack <strong>of</strong> originality <strong>of</strong> con-ception in most productions(not Marat Sade), Companyhe is a most welcome addition.by Doug Rowletters...more...lettersfamilies.

This term <strong>of</strong>reference was to determinewhether or not the threepr<strong>of</strong>essors received treatmentconsonent with the principles<strong>of</strong> natural justice. In essence,the commission decided thatnatural justice was subordinateto the requirements <strong>of</strong>administrative law, but thatnatural justice had been doneanyway. The commissionmade its decision on the basisthat procedures as describedin the tenure document hadbeen followed and thereforethe men had been treatedaccording to the princples <strong>of</strong>natural justice.What has always beenquestioned by those peoplefollowing the three caseshas not been the formalprecedures followed, but thecontent <strong>of</strong> the procedures andthe correctness (not the legalvalidity) <strong>of</strong> the finaljudgements made. It hasContinued from Page 15happened many times in thepast that correct procedureshave culminated in a wrongjudgement or even inillegitimate act. Is it reallytenable to maintain that ifcorrect procedures arefollowed even to a wrongjudgement, that naturaljustice has been done?Many people are not convincedthe cqmmission reportproperly demonstrates thatthe correct judgement wasmade, and for them certainquestions remain unanswered:Why was Dr. Goede judgednot on the basis <strong>of</strong> hisscholarship, teaching andservice on <strong>University</strong> committeesbut on the basis <strong>of</strong> hisalleged immaturity and“passions”? Why was hejudged on the basis <strong>of</strong> Dr.Leslie’s conjecture instead <strong>of</strong>on the basis <strong>of</strong> performance?Why was Mr. Graff judged noton the basis <strong>of</strong> his colleagues’and department head’sestimate <strong>of</strong> his performanceas a teacher <strong>of</strong> lower andupper level courses, but on thebasis <strong>of</strong> Dean Climenhaga’sformal standards? Why wasDr. Jain’s dispute with theChemistry department notreferred to an extrauniversitypanel <strong>of</strong> academicreferees, the constitution <strong>of</strong>which could have beendetermined to the satisfaction<strong>of</strong> the parties involved, instead<strong>of</strong> to a prestigious“anonymous” outside organicchemist? Who was thischemist and why did he chooseto remain anonymous? Is itnatural justice to be judged bythose who will not identifythemselves?F y was the final realjudgement made by someonewho is neither a scholar nor anacademic? Is it natural justiceto be judged by an improperlyqualified judge?None <strong>of</strong> these questionswere discussed or answeredadequately by the Commission<strong>of</strong> Inquiry. In fact, farfrom illuminating thesequestions, the Commissionreport obscured them.

As studentsenator- then, we needsomeone whom we know willexpress; what he honestlybelieves is your sentiment,andnot use this responsible Iposition< as a vehicle for his .D W ~ interest.The senate is the main linkbetween the student body andthe administration, andprimarily through it can weexpect to gain needed changeson this campus. Studentrallies and demonstrationsare fine in a limited respect,but they alone have provedunsuccessful. Strong, studentbackedrepresentation in thesenate could gain moreresults.I have long held an interestin campus politics, but themain outlet {or such interest isthe RA, a consistantly ineffectivebody.

They have beenTomtsmtty si!m In senate.The reason may be that theythe way in which decisions aremade in this university, and Iknew where and by whom. Iam not reluctant to state mycase forcefully, because I amconfident that I can state mycase coherently.I don’t believe that the role<strong>of</strong> a student senator is to actwithout constituency; that is,once elected to sit as an independentmember <strong>of</strong> Senate.This is what some members <strong>of</strong>faculty and most <strong>of</strong> the administrationbelieve is theproper role <strong>of</strong> a senator, anykind <strong>of</strong> senator, but I disagree.Student senators areresponsible to those that electthem, and therefore mustmake the strongest possiblecase from their own specialperspective. I don’t believestudent senators shouldcompromise an inch from aposition that puts studentsfirst. Why? Because we haveonly two representatives out<strong>of</strong> about three dozen, and thestudent case can easily bedisregarded unless made inthe strongest possible way bythe only members <strong>of</strong> Senatewho really understandstudents, the studentsthemselves.My past experience <strong>of</strong> involvementin student anduniversity affairs is fairly throats for the sake <strong>of</strong> theirsubstantial.

I will makethis clear-and concise1. Last year I was elected tothe position <strong>of</strong> speaker <strong>of</strong> theR.A.2. If reelected I wil continuein that position.3. My main concern hasalways been for clubs,athletics and activities.4. Student employment isanother great problem which Iam concerned with.5. Students got screwed inthe tenure dispute, andsomething must be done.All I can <strong>of</strong>fer is to continueto do my job as speaker and touse reasonable judgement inrepresenting the students.FriedaLockhartI hate reading campaignspeeches but .I hate writingthem even more. Usuallythey’re pretty- dull, so I considerednot submitting thispreamble to the Martlet but Iguess the publicity isn’t goingto hurt.Someone asked me todayabout my platforms. There’snot much around yet to take astand on, mainly just therehash and continuation <strong>of</strong>last year’s problems. But I seethe young Socialists havepresented their slate on theirpostbrs and there’s a few <strong>of</strong>these demands that I takeissue with. (By the way, youmight want to replace yourposter on the side <strong>of</strong>Clearihue, the paint ran in therain ).Abolish tuition fees? That’sa really great idea but wemight as well abolish ourbeloved (sic) university whilewe’re at it. UVic tuition feesare among the lowest on theContinent. The gov’ts. notgoing to pay our way, theycan’t even finance a medicalfaculty. Of course we couldalways raise the school tax afew hundred percent.Guaranteed jobs ongraduation? Beautiful thoughtbut idealistic. Lets give a B.C.grad a cushy job whilethousands <strong>of</strong> people with years<strong>of</strong> skilled work experience arestill on welfare. Women’s


‘THE MARTLET, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 7, 1971, Page 19studies on campus? Not <strong>of</strong> thegreatest priority around here.Maybe Dr. Goede would like toteach a course?Lets see, my own platform. Ihave to keep this to 250 wordsor less, and this thing is gettingharder to write; I think Ineed a c<strong>of</strong>fee. I’d like anenlarged SUB, but beingnaturally pecuniary consciousI don’t want the AMS feesraised for the purpose. This iscalled having your cake et-c.. . . .Lets keep the trees aroundhere and ban more parkinglots. I like skylarks too.Campus developers are youlistening? I’d like to see aswimining pool on campusand, semi-serious, aregistrar’s <strong>of</strong>fice that doesn’trequire a minor hike to get to.Lets have third world studycourses, we need them andlets make the R.A. somethingmore than a perenniallyfashionable joke (fat chance!!). There’s lots <strong>of</strong> otherimportant things I want done,changed, stamped out, etc.,but I can’t think <strong>of</strong> them at themoment. In order to follow thetraditional closing pattern Istate: Elect me to the R.A. Ieven promise to go to themeetings.JohnBentleySince the conception <strong>of</strong> theR.A., it has very rarely, ifever, been truly representative.As I have long held, thesole duty <strong>of</strong> any representativeis to reflect the will <strong>of</strong>the majority. If elected, it wilnot be my purpose to act formy benefit but for yours. So,instead <strong>of</strong> the customarycampaign promises, I presenta few questions for you toponder as you vote.Does it seem that thepromises made by certainpolitical elements are at allpossible? Do these promisesreflect an unrealistic andoverly idealistic view <strong>of</strong> life?Do we need Bill -de? IShe worth an extra dollar? Nowthat Partridge .has (unfortunately)beaten us,doesn’t this whole businessserve to remind one <strong>of</strong> thesenseless emotionalism andimmaturity which havecharacterized previousstudent governments?Does the fact that the incumbentR.A. has ., curtailedthe practise <strong>of</strong> reimbursingR.A. candidates forczmpaign expenses s ck <strong>of</strong>unfair class discrim&%? Itwas claimed that ca n$$@used the money for s ushfunds”, but doesn’t the R.A.tself send “good membersmck east all expenses paid?Do we need to spend $6.00)er capita on athletics?Jertainly mtiny studentsmjoy sports through paricipation,but are there manypectators?If you vote with your headmd not with your heart andhopefully) elect me, perhapswether we can prevent thislampus from becoming evennore absurd.3rd yearand above:StevePorterI find that I am tempted touse this space to further abusethat scourilous scoundrel BigBird who continues to featherhis nest in the President’sOffice (not to mention anynames), but the’subject is aBore. So I won’t.Instead the Issues asdeemed important by thatWily Fox, myself, will beexpounded herein.NEVER MIND THE SUB,LET’S EXPAND THE PUBThe odds against SUB expansionactually getting underway within the next two yearsare staggering - take myword for it. But how about Pubexpansion? All that needs tobe done is to extend the Pubinto the lower courtyard. Itwill be done anyway when theSUB is expanded so why wait?This would give us a largercafeteria, too.Speaking <strong>of</strong> cafeterias, whynot have a natural food cafe?It would be a wholesomechange from the usual fare .,.Also, a few fruit trees aroundthe SUB would be a welcomeaddition, especially aroundthis time <strong>of</strong> year.Just for the record, if theSUB expansion controversyarises again (and we all knowit will) I am totally in favour<strong>of</strong> more <strong>of</strong>fice and loungespace and, <strong>of</strong> course a .biggerPub. But I would like to see theauditorium idea come to grief.My most important issue isa perennial one which won’t besolved easily. That is, studentparticipation on <strong>University</strong>committees and in the Senate.I do not propose a democraticcampus simply because suchan obvious solution is stillconsidered undesirable bynearly everybody. I thinkmost will agree, however, thatopportunities for studentinvolvement are inadequate,especially when consideringthe size <strong>of</strong> this interest group.Therefore, I will campaign forParity with other campusinterests as a very optimisticyet reasonable goal - particularlyfor the Senate.These are the goals that Iwill be working towards as aMartlet Staffer, as a member<strong>of</strong> a Senate standing committeeand, if elected, as amember <strong>of</strong> the R.A. So Votefor me.DaveMickFeliow students, candidates,and any interestedpeoples.It is with a definite goal, aprecise ambition, a concreteabstract aim, a movingmotive, and a damn goodreason that I am running in anelection to represent manypeople I do not even know or”who know me only through theetching .upon this rag or theverbulisations <strong>of</strong> my speechechoing amongst the walls andbuilding and heads <strong>of</strong> thiscampus. My initial goal, mypremiere ambition is to winand win I shall. Defeat shallnot darken my doorway norshall victory blind me to myaims.The benefit received by myconstituents shall forever,shine as an eternal beacon t<strong>of</strong>uture R.A. candidates.For my part, I shall fight inhallways and in the stairs, inthe classrooms and on thegrounds, I shall never resignand I shall never surrender.Never have so few asked somany for so much.JohnSchmuckI’ve decided to run for theR.A. in the hope <strong>of</strong> providingsome reasonable representationfor the students on thiscampus. A few things I’d liketo see are:-a prominent and qualifiedCanadian appointed aspresident <strong>of</strong> this university.- the organization <strong>of</strong> activitieswhich will include agreater number <strong>of</strong> students.- a new plan for SUB expansionwhich will provide abigger and better pub, a largeauditorium, and facilitieswhich will benefit ali students.Please support me, and I’lldo my best for you.SueMartensAs a third year candidatefor election to theRepresentative Assembly Iwill say in all honesty that Iam in favor <strong>of</strong> a strongAthletic program, both Intraand Extramural, on ourcampus. I further support thefight for a P.E. / RecreationComplex (pool, gym, etc) for Iknow it will serve the growingneeds <strong>of</strong> all students forrecreation suited to theirvaried needs and interests. Ifelected, I will endeavor tokeep my eyes and ears open tothe other wishes and needs <strong>of</strong>students as well, since it hasalways been my contentionthat no program is worth theeffort if it doesn’t have thesupport <strong>of</strong> the students.DaveMcGregar -Let me makz myself perfectlyclear - I am runningfor the R.A. In my mind, if Iam not elected, - <strong>Oct</strong>. 12,1971shall live forever as a day <strong>of</strong>infamy. To be elected torepresent those in dire need <strong>of</strong>representation is my fondestdream. Seriously, I supportAthletics - all forms - but Ishall give myself to any causewhich strikes my fancy for thebetterment <strong>of</strong> student-hood. Ifyou elect me - I will go intothe assembly swinging. I, likethe well trained linebackerwill tackle the problem at theline <strong>of</strong> scrimmage. There is noplace for ineffective tactics inthe R.A. and as a member <strong>of</strong>the team - I will do my best tochange the game strategy. Iam a progressive, and I playtowin.Makeno mistake - IAM A Candidate.JoanDavisIn the beginning there was acollege and it came to passthat the board <strong>of</strong> governorslooked across the campus andsaid “Let there be a universityand let there be students whoshould have domain over theuniversity and that theyshould eat <strong>of</strong> the fruit <strong>of</strong> thecampus and be plentiful andtheyshould multiply” But inthe university, there sprangevil in the form <strong>of</strong> studentthought and tempted studentsto think for themselves saying“There lurketh in the B <strong>of</strong> G,unclean thought and that, youshalt go forth and think foryourself and you shall be asequals.” But the B <strong>of</strong> G sawwhat was happening as theysayeth unto the students “G<strong>of</strong>orth and bring unto yourselfan <strong>of</strong>fering, maketh it 4 and 4and you shall call them theR.A. and they shall yearly,<strong>of</strong>fer themselves up as appeasementto you” and itcame to pass that the R.A. wasformed in the image <strong>of</strong> the B <strong>of</strong>G and that it became just asthe B <strong>of</strong> G. Yea, though I <strong>of</strong>fermyselfup as sacrifice I sayunto you, let there be light so Imay make it through thevalleyIanBairdI suppose it is time to put outthe usual bullshit about howconcerned we all are aboutUVic .This university must takethe prize for stupidity andapathy. Taking apathy forexample, look at the ModelParliament results, 451students voted out <strong>of</strong> anenrolment <strong>of</strong> approximately5,000. It’s really good to seesuch student awareness!Bill Goede, the pr<strong>of</strong>essorwho has been denied tenure,has now been <strong>of</strong>fered aposition by AMs at a salary <strong>of</strong>one dollar per student. What abloody waste <strong>of</strong> money!-If they must spend thismoney why not create an AMsstudent loan fund?Another bone <strong>of</strong> contentionis the SubPub. Why shouldstudents pay $1 to $1.50. If thatis not inflation what is? Thepub is for the students andshould he operated at cost.Furthermore the Pub shouldhe run and managed bystudents only not by nonstudentswho like to perpetuatetheir own heirarchy.As you vote think on thesepoints. Maybe you can getbetter value for your $32.PatThompsonI have known Pat Thompsonfor almost a year now and I’mimpressed with what I’velearned.I find her to be one <strong>of</strong> thosewomen who are truly‘liberated’; I mean that sheaccepts her independence andher intelligence gracefully,and with a style so naturalthat it doesn’t need to beproclaimed in speeches orworn on buttons.I believe that if she were tobe elected to the R.A. shewould be a welcome ex-ception. Most women who sitin the Assembly seem to feelintimidated by the malepredominance: they don’texpress their views openly,and on any major issue theyinvariahly ‘take their cue’from the prevailing side. Thisis truly unfortunate in ‘an agein which women have supposedlyachieved intellectualemancipation.Pat Thompson would breakthis tradition, and God knows,the R.A. could use the changeshe’d create in doing so.I like Pat Thompson. Pleasevote for her.- contributed by DerryMcDonell.AlastairMurdoaihThe main purpose <strong>of</strong> theR.A. is to set the policies <strong>of</strong> theAMs, and what one considersimportant is clearly shown bywhether one is prepared to putone’s money where one’smouth is. If we really want tohave an effective studentunion, we have to be sure thatour Administrative Officersare and remain the best wecan find. In order to elect thebest (and not just the well todo) in the first place, we needto <strong>of</strong>fer sufficienthonorariums to the AdministrativeOfficers so thatthose who wish to hold <strong>of</strong>fice(:an afford t.0 do so (sincebeing an AdministrativeOfficer doesn’t leave time tohold a part-time job). In orderto assure that those in <strong>of</strong>ficeremain the best, we need aneffective means <strong>of</strong> removingthose who turn bad during theyear. One uay to accomplishthis is outlined in the proposedamendment to. the constitution,and I urge you tovote for it.One <strong>of</strong> the most importantpolicy making meetings <strong>of</strong> theR.A. is the budget meeting. Atthe present time more than $20<strong>of</strong> the $32 AMS fee has priorcommitments (for SUB ex- Ipansion, athletics, etc.). 1believe the remaining moheysshould be allocated as follows :Academic Affairs $1.80tts,ooo)Club $1.80 G9,OOo)Publications $1.50 ($7,500)


THE MARTLET, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 7,1971, Page #IActivities $1.00 C#,OOo)External Affairs $1.00(t5,OOo)Honorariums $1.40($7,000)Of course, if the AthleticFunds referendum passes, wewill have an additional $2.00 tospend, IC <strong>of</strong> which should go toAcademic Affairs, and Y4 eachto Clubs and Activities.Finally, let me state that mygeneral feelings on policy aresimilar to those <strong>of</strong> RussellFreethy, and therefore ingeneral I am not a supporter<strong>of</strong> Mr. McKinnon.NimbySihotaI was approached by severalfriends to run as 4th year rep.for the H.A. Until this time Ihave been an apatheticstudent towards the politicalaffairs <strong>of</strong> this university, butrecent development haveencouraged me to want toparticipate in the decisionmaking affairs for the studentbody.LoisFlavelleAs one athletic supporter toanother I turn to you, myfellow students, to decide uponmy fate, my future and myfortune. I beg <strong>of</strong> you, I plead,that you should raise up in amighty turhult and elect me torepresent your anguishingsouls and send me, likeDaniel, into the lions’ den <strong>of</strong>the R.A. and I shall comeforth, like Shad-rak out <strong>of</strong> thevery jaws <strong>of</strong> hell, unscathed,untarnished and undefeated. Ishall come forth with victorylike Jonah came forth fromithe whalp. Verily, verily, I say’unto you, ask not what the RAcan do for you, but what youcan do to your R.A. Let uspray.JohnEldridgeI served on student’s councilthree years ago, asa member<strong>of</strong> the R.A. and ExecutiveCouncil. I sponsored an extensiveprogram <strong>of</strong> highschool and community appearancesby large numbers<strong>of</strong> students.I also served on the JointFaculty / Student Committeesestablished by Senate to lookinto the reforms which wereinstituted by Senate under thetitle <strong>of</strong> “Need for change”.I believe my experience oncouncil and working withFaculty has given me thebasis to take an informed partin Student Affairs on Campus.I intend to work particularlyfor the extended developmentand improved operation <strong>of</strong> thepresent Sub to accomodate agreater variety <strong>of</strong> services toall students.I wil seek appointment asStudent rep on at least onemajor Senate Committee,preferably Academic Affairs.I believe that the presentitudent leadership from Mr.McKinnon is both incompetentand inadequate, and I will tryto improve the effectiveness <strong>of</strong>the R.A. in taking its properplace as the responsible policymaking body.FionaGowThis university has fallenupon Hard Times. The GreatExpectations <strong>of</strong> the studentswishing to regain a ParadiseLost have resulted in a constantflux between War andPeace and in the ravages <strong>of</strong>Crime and Punishment.A campaign which wouldappeal to Everyman andwhich would evoke the Senseand Sensibility <strong>of</strong> even theUnderground Man would, inthis Wasteland <strong>of</strong> Pride andPrejudice, be a ModestProposal indeed.I do not claim to have asolution which would satisfythe diverse needs <strong>of</strong> all thestudents on campus but I dopromise to deal conscientiouslywith all issuesand to try to resolve them withdue consideration <strong>of</strong> all thefacts.DougEvansI am running for the R.A. asa 3rd year representative foronly one reason: I believe thatthe only way to get anythingaccomplished at university isto do it myself.Thusly I hope to see allstudent activities run moreefficiently so that all studentinterests can be effectivelyrepresented.I pledge, with my heartbrimming with sincerity to dosomething (anything) for you. .. . if elected that is.Yours “Jock”ingly- BradZi.n kPurpose: to re-orientate theRepresentative Assembly as abody responsible to thestudents.Background: Member <strong>of</strong> theRepresentative Assembly andthe Executive Council lastsession. Academic AffairsCommittee. English Union.Involvement in studentpolitics for the last 4 years.Worked on the development <strong>of</strong>the Day Care Center.While realizing theRepresentative Assembly isirrelevant, this is simply aresult <strong>of</strong> the irrational andillogical ideas and informationking disseminated. Thp egotrip<strong>of</strong> power becomes muchmore obscene when studentstry to react to the arbitraryacts uf faculty as evidenced insome <strong>of</strong> the various departmentslast year and arestopped by the bureaucratichypocracy <strong>of</strong> junior administration.BobCoulterOnce again I find myselffaced with the task <strong>of</strong> puttingmy thoughts about theRepresentative Assembly,and UVic in general, into ablurb <strong>of</strong> a few sentences. Thelast time I ran for council thetask was much more difficultbecause I did not really understandthe machinery <strong>of</strong>student politics, especiallythose which exist at the SUB.During my last year on theR.A., and the past three yearswhich I have sat on the SUBManagement Board, I believeI have learned how the“political system” at thisuniversity works. My positionon council, if elected, will be <strong>of</strong>an independant. If you wantan independant voice oncouncil I would appreciateyour vote. I would also en-courage you to vote for Derryand Bob in their bid forSenate.Extramuralschairman:KenLandeenMy Platform? An excellentquestion.This “statement”, Iimagine, is for the expresspurpose <strong>of</strong> answering thisquestion. So my answer -Athletics; in particular extramurals.And thanks to LindaFlavelle and others who aresupporting my nomination.Yo So S Slate1st year Reps.Loren LeaderCliff Mack2nd Year Reps.Laurie MacBrideBob GrantChffs H<strong>of</strong>strandStudent Council electionsare here aee again, and asusual, they are surroundedwith the * same fog <strong>of</strong>irrelevance and stupidity thatclings to every meeting <strong>of</strong> theR.A. Not that the A. has to beirrelevant or obscure, but thatmost <strong>of</strong> the people in it orrunning for it have chosen tomake it that way. They are thepersonalities on campus whoare trying to outwit, or outjokeeach other on the way torepresentingfive-thousandother students. They are theones who have continued thetradition <strong>of</strong> student govern-.ment in Canada - thetradition <strong>of</strong> playhouse politics,squabbling, and name -smearing. Past turnouts at theballot-box have indicatedquite accurately how muchthis means to the averagestudent - who is supposed tobe “apathetic” and“hopeless”, but who is actuallyjust plain bored. Thestudents on this campus, thesame as those in otheruniversities across Canada,have more important things toworry about - like how you’regoing to get through somecrummy course, or put upwith a lousy pr<strong>of</strong>., like howyou’re going to buy all thehodrs you need when your lastpair <strong>of</strong> jeans just gave out; orhow you’re going to land astudent-loan or get a job nextsummer so you have the“privelege” <strong>of</strong> coming back.These are the real problems,the real issues on campus -this is what a studentgovernment which proclaimsitself representative <strong>of</strong> thestudents must be concernedwith; this is why the YoungSocialists have advanced boththeir program and slate forthe coming elections.(1) <strong>University</strong> Resources tothe Anti-War MovementA lot <strong>of</strong> people on campus,including the R.A., think thatthe war in Vietnam is nothingmore than a moral issue thathas been overworked and isnow irrelevant. It, in fact, ismuch more than this - it is amatter <strong>of</strong> dollars and cents toevery student on campus, andmore to the ones that couldn’tafford to come here; it is amatter <strong>of</strong> inadequateuniversity expenditure whichhas resulted in crowdedclassrooms and poor studentfacilities. Ever wonder whyclasses are bigger this yearand yet enrollment is down?The inflation and unemploymentwhich has causedthese problems - problemswhich affect every student oncampus -come directly fromour governments policy <strong>of</strong>aiding and abetting U.S.imperialism in S.E. Asia. Thisis why the R.A. mustmobilize students to protestthe war on Nov. 3, with otherstudents right across Canada.This is why student governmentmust organize personnelad resources on this campus tobuild the InternationalDay <strong>of</strong> Protest. It is not amatter <strong>of</strong> choice, or <strong>of</strong> what“value judgements” are involved- it is a matter <strong>of</strong>economic necessity that ourgovernment end its complicityin the war. TWs will come onlyif the students, with thewomen and workers 3f thiscountry, say NO to war policyand a war-inflated economy.(2) Women’s Studies onCampusIt is grossly obvious that theeducation system plays a keyrole in maintaining the oppression<strong>of</strong> women - an oppressionwhich includes denial<strong>of</strong> the most basic democraticright <strong>of</strong> control <strong>of</strong> their ownbodies. Women are taught thatthey are the second, “weaker”sex, and that their role in lifeis tobecome the servile appendage<strong>of</strong> some man, and tobear and raise “his” children.Women, in fact, have notalways played this role. Theywere once, as a sex, buildersand leaders <strong>of</strong> civilization;they played an equal or evensuperior role in society withmen, and lost it only with theadvant <strong>of</strong> a class socialstructure.In the last 150 yearswomen all over the world havebeen fighting to regain theirrights as people and as humanbeings. The history <strong>of</strong>womens’. past and <strong>of</strong> theirstruggles must be taught itthis university is to proclaimitself an institution <strong>of</strong> higher“learning”. The R.A. mustlead actions on the campuswhich will ensure that womenstudents here have the right tolearn the history <strong>of</strong> their ownsex.(3) Abolish Tuition Fees(4) Guaranteed Jobs on.GraduationIt is no joke, orexaggeration, that themajority <strong>of</strong> youth are denied auniversity education throughlack <strong>of</strong> funds to pay for it, andthat the people who arereaping the real benefits <strong>of</strong>this education are the largecorporations and businesses.At an ever increasing rate,today’s graduate students arefinding themselves as nothingmore than skilled employees,if, in fact, they are fortunateenough to get jobs. This is whythe big businesses <strong>of</strong> theprovince and country must becharged with the cost <strong>of</strong>training their futui-e workers-- not other workers orstudents. They must pay thetuition , and residence fees;they must buy the books -they can afford it, we cannot.Furthermore, if a person hastaken the trouble <strong>of</strong> absorbingfacts and functions for. fiveyears, she / he has the right <strong>of</strong>applying them aftergraduation. The employers <strong>of</strong>this system must guaranteeemployment to all graduates,or subsidize them with traderates if they cannot.(5) Student - Faculty - StaffControlIt is no secret that thisuniversity is run by the Board<strong>of</strong> Governors, a group <strong>of</strong>businessmen and politicalappointees, and not thestudents, the faculty, or otherpeople that work here. We, themajority, are out in the cold -we have no say. This isprecisely why the tenuredispute arose, and why somegood lectures have beenforced to leave; this is whysome <strong>of</strong> our courses are boringor irrelevant, and why some <strong>of</strong>the pr<strong>of</strong>s that are hereprobably shouldn’t be; this iswhy this ilniversity is a degreemill, an abstraction, and not aplace to take part in ameanin@, educational experience.A student leadershipmust mnize this, but it alsomust be willing to mobilizeother students in fighting forchange, in demanding ourdemocratic rights. It mustalso recognize that anyserious change in oureducation system must involvestriking at the systemwhich the university serves.The universities cannot bemade into islands <strong>of</strong>democracy and happiness inthe midst <strong>of</strong> oppression andsqualor. The Young Socialistsrecognize this - that is whywe are here; that is whyweare part <strong>of</strong> the biggest youthand student movement in thecountry ; and that is why weare winning our program andslate in this election.
